Becky and Sasha put the entire company on their backs during the pandemic and were the only WWE wrestlers to get mentioned in the Observer awards in the good awards to win, i think they were third in best tag team. Fake edit: checked - Bayley outright won womens wrestling MVP with Sasha third, they came fifth in tag team of the year, Bayley came seventh in US MVP and Bayley came 6th in the wrestler of the year award AND Sasha was an honourable mention. They received no credit for this.

well it'd be kinda weird to do that since Vince's favorite reporter to harass is Dave Meltzer.

Also, in the 2020 Pro Wrestling Illustrated front: Bayley vs Sasha won Feud of the Year while also winning Tag Team of the Year, and she was Number 1 in the 2020 Women's 100 (The team of Bayley and Sasha was Number 3 in the 2020 Tag Team 50)

As far as I'm concerned, when it comes to Beowulf, it's Seamus Heaney, or nothing at all.

sleepwalkers posted:now, i wouldn’t wish this on anyone else, but if you’ve seen any smackdown in the last 2+ years, it’s pretty obvious bayley has been and probably will be treated better than bray wyatt, the guy who wrestled 10 matches in a year including an instance where they more or less took him off tv for 4 months before they beat him and gave alexa his gimmick. contrast that to someone they had on tv for like ~20 minutes nearly every week and had the belt on for over a year. Yeah, it's certainly not like WWE has ever cut loose people they had big plans for and sank a lot of time and money into before. I mean, no offense to you, but nothing you said there means absolutely jack poo poo when it comes to whether or not someone gets cut from WWE. Not when we're talking about a company where the heir apparent son-in-law just got demoted out of running developmental and recruiting talent in favor of Brother Love and Johnny Ace, not while Nick Khan is slashing big salaries left and right, and especially not when Vince has a very long and storied history of blasting both his own feet off when it comes to not properly marketing people who are very highly marketable. Your argument relies on assuming that Vince will be sensible and continue to treat Bayley well (or at least, WWE's version of treating someone well), and I don't think that's an assumption anyone can safely make. If Bayley doesn't get cut, it's going to be because Vince doesn't want to let her go to AEW, not because he has some special regard for her or sees her as the top talent in the women's division.

When I first saw Ryan Nemeth and heard he was called Hollywook Hunk I thought yeah, that's a prime jobber gimmick. But now I think he's cool and his BTE cream bits are the best.

I was definitely in the "Urgh, Dolph's brother? That's a waste of a roster spot!" camp when he first arrived, but I'm happy to admit I was wrong and now I love him. It helps that he seems like a very decent person in a very scummy industry too.

He'd be the best Nemeth even if the competition was tougher. But his brothers make it real easy

Ryan was the “Official Hunk” of the “Lady 2 Lady” podcast and would show up at most of their live shows. I know this because out of the blue my girlfriend asked if Dolph had a brother

CaptainApathyUK posted:I was definitely in the "Urgh, Dolph's brother? That's a waste of a roster spot!" camp when he first arrived, but I'm happy to admit I was wrong and now I love him. To be fair, he was very bad, bland, and doing Dolph Ziggler-lite stuff in his first few matches before he developed more of an on-air personality. I think what started to sell me on him was some group promo where he was building up his match with, I think, Moxley and at the end of his piece deadpanned into the camera "I must win this match" or something like that. It was just so matter of fact and dry that it made me crack up for some reason.

Dawgstar posted:Aw, you got to meet Quake? I've mentioned the story I believe. Met him at a Dillard's in Florida where he was working selling suits in between network runs. Mentioned being Canadian and just starting in the business, spent close to an hour just giving us advice, what to watch for, how to conduct yourself in a locker room etc. He died a couple years after (I want to say I met him in 2001) As for lore of the stab, my life isn't that interesting. I met SeXXXy Eddy, and through him starting in the biz, I met a bunch of others guys just starting up etc...and now you happen to know a lot of them.
