Jerusalem posted:Well he's a SUPERstar so it seems obvious, but the real answer is Usopp because he's the closest in spirit to Ryusuke Taguchi and Toru Yano. Also the really real REAL answer is Minoru Suzuki. Usopp lost a loser leaves town match and got his spot snagged by Sogeking, he’s a jabroni

franky is the power guy, nico is the technical wrestler, usopp is the comedy guy, luffy is fiery babyface that never goes down, chopper is the babyface with the huge nosell spot, zoro is the actual coolest member who always gets the secondary title, nami is the manager who has to wrestle sometimes. sanji sucks.

Sanji wins a secondary or tertiary singles title from one enemy faction only to drop it to the next one they fight after 2 weeks with 0 defenses, ad nauseum. The only reigns with significance he ever has are tag titles with Zoro or Usopp.

I went to a superstars taping in 1995 and everyone was just tired by the end. The show was about 4 1/2 hours long and was mostly squashed with big matches in between episodes of the taping. There were a few interviews/angles as well but nothing too memorable. The advertised dark match main event was Diesel/Razor/Shawn vs Yoko/owen/Bulldog but we ended up getting Diesel/jannetty/Ahmed vs Owen/bulldog/Jean Pierre Lafitte.

What was the deal with Dusty Rhodes in ECW? It seems like that would be a clash of styles.

He had a vendetta with anyone who had a championship belt afterwards. This was all the preamble to him getting blown up in a car bomb, which then never got resolved because of the Benoit murders.

Who do you guys think was the best OVW Booker? When it was a development territory. Why did it fail where NXT succeeded?

RenegadeStyle1 posted:Who do you guys think was the best OVW Booker? When it was a development territory. Why did it fail where NXT succeeded? As a developmental territory it turned out John Cena, Randy Orton, Brock Lesnar and Batista. Off those four names alone I'd say it succeeded as a development territory far more than NXT ever has. If you're asking why it didn't succeed in becoming a third brand, it's because it didn't have the benefit of being available to watch for most of the country or frequent injections of indie names to put on fantastic matches. It was always treated as a development territory and not a third brand like NXT.

The longest roh show I went to was glory by honor 7 which had something like 5 title matches two 30 minute intermissions and a really long war games match. I got to see my hero kensuke sasaki wrestle though so everything was worth it. The longest wrestling show I went to was this most recent wrestlemania where me and my friends accidentally showed up early because we forgot about time zones and then we got trapped in the death line for a train, we just eventually walked through the rain up Paterson Plank Road until we found a gas station and took a $140 uber from there. The experience itself was a little over 12 hours but we watched Chase Owens try to carry up way too much Mediterranean Food through the hotel and that almost made it worth it.

Reigns followed way in the back by Rusev and than followed by Corbin in the distance again for home grown guys. But aside from Reigns nobody is close to Juice who left and went through the Young Lion system to become bigger. Edit: Charlotte Flair, Becky, Shasha and Baley are also up in the success category for Women SatoshiMiwa fucked around with this message at 16:23 on Sep 14, 2019 |

fatherofmustard posted:Roman was barely in NXT. He was more of an FCW guy. Eh. I'd still count it. It's kind of semantics at that point. He was still a developmental guy and probably their best/latest claim to a home grown success. STONE COLD 64 posted:Braun completely bypassed the NXT system. Did he? I thought he at least worked house shows but was just never on TV. How quickly did he go from being hired to being on Raw?
