It's funny when people discuss what bad ideas were pitched on wwe programming that didn't make it because the stuff that did make it is almost always equally as bad or worse

keithy george posted:The talk around “Sister Abigail” for years was painful because it was clear that the entire Bray Wyatt gimmick was just saying gibberish imagery in a pleasing rhythm. Like the time he randomly said “the devil made me do it” and there was lots of speculation about the lore of the devil. Slightly annoying that the Alexa Blyss rumours ended up coming (sort of) true. There's a universe out there where Bray doesn't get mumps before TLC 2017 and we get a Demon vs. Sister Abigail match, which I guess was going to be Bray in drag? I guess?

Take a guy like EC3. The guy's original gimmick in WWE as Derrick Bateman didn't get over. He goes off on his own and creates this Ethan Carter III character that gets over. WWE then signs the guy, but decides to pretty much give him an entirely different gimimck than the one that got him signed by the company. Why on earth would you not just let the guy do what is working for him and made him popular. Then again, it doesn't really matter if they don't let you do anything with it. Look at Ricochet, the guy pretty much retained his gimmick but they made him look like a goober

Lead Pipe Cinch posted:I’d be incredibly annoyed if I only watched NXT with how frequently people just get disappeared to SmackDown/Raw. Along those lines, they’re never going to build any viewership for the same reason. This is the biggest reason why I gave up on NXT. If you only watch NXT it's basically impossible to care about any of the characters because at any given moment they can just vanish into the thin air never to be seen again, while the few that stick around have been there so long there's nothing left for them to do.

EC3 is definitely in that category of wrestlers people swear are good but I just don't get it. I'd add Robert Roode, Nick Aldis, and Eli Drake/LA Knight to that list.

NXT used to be the only consistent good thing about WWE. You could argue that the birth of AEW ruined it.

robert roode was good imo as the dependable one of beer money, and that's probably more just me liking cowboy james storm him being with ziggler makes a lot of sense but god drat do they have the worst tag team name

Roode is better than all of those guys, he had a fun run as NXT Champ. Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 Evolution and Evolution 2 Phantasy Star Online Somebody already said Skies of Arcadia but that too.

Astro7x posted:It's not even pitched ideas. Ricochet's always been a goober, it's just that if you do a million sick moves per match, no one cares about your personality that much. WWE, which of course was going to tone down his style, was like the absolute worst place for him to go but it's also his dearest dream to work for them. So, his career ending up this way was pretty much always going to happen. LU had the right idea when they slapped a mask on him, made him a mute, gave him Konnan as a mouthpiece, and just sent him out there to do crazy Spiderman poo poo around a lumbering Mil Muertes.

Dreamcast was the best place to play 2D fighters at the time and didn't cost an arm and a leg like the Neo Geo Also stuff like Tech Romancer and Project Justice 2 which haven't been released elsewhere
