Dave doesn't decide the awards. Just because the Bucks got a 5-star match doesn't mean the Revival can't win it. It just depends on if their peers are adamant enough to have them win. Otherwise, it'll probably be the Bucks anyway.

In case you missed it, they added Cedric Alexander, Rich Swann, and Gran Metalik's entrance themes to their WWEMusic YouTube channel. For relevancy, here's Cedric's theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9iYE2hupZE

First team Associated Press Pennsylvania Class AAAA All-State each of his final two seasons as an offensive tackle at Erie McDowell High School. Tried out for the Cincinnati Bengals but making it on the team, signed on to the Montreal Alouettes of the CFL but didn't finish the end of the season and was cut. He then decided to enter pro wrestling in 2015 and signed with WWE to be trained. He's had a string of matches, including at the Arnold Classic this year. No big winning or losing streaks, at least to the point where it could affect him much. In other words, he's a pure PC recruit.

Andrade should look to Hunico for inspiration on how to be a rudo in WWE. At least he has killer music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9ulYoud5Xs

Well, they already did an NXT Rumble with Bo Dallas, and he became a participant in the main one. I wouldn't be surprised if they repeat the process. Though, hopefully whoever wins elicits a bigger reaction from the crowd than Bo did.

I'm reminded of when Triple H told Hideo to go out there and let loose. I'm convinced that Hideo is just too humble to to just that, and it's holding him back. I think he needs to be matched against stiff opponents so he will be forced to go back to his old ways. Otherwise, he's just going to keep toeing the line instead of being what WWE hired him to be in the first place. Get Kota, Akira, or Shinsuke in the ring with him. Hell, a one-off match with Cesaro or Sheamus would probably work. Just prevent him from acting so drat humble.

Actually, it was. People think it was something done by or for NXT, but that's false.

WWE used the NXT crew, yes, but it was still a WWE product. Dave Meltzer said that it was a common misconception.

# ¿ Oct 1, 2016 13:59 |

I remember Meltzer saying there was an important distinction. I just can't remember exactly what it was since it was a mailbag question or something. I'm sending him a tweet and I'm hoping he'll respond with what that was.

I wonder if they'll bring in any "outside" teams like how they introduced Ciampa and Gargano. The closest we have is Kota Ibushi, but that's stretching it.

I mean... isn't that the case for most tag teams? Two people thrown together and having matching gear most of the time?
|
# ¿ Oct 4, 2016 16:34 |

I meant more that at the beginning they were just two wrestlers thrown together with usually matching gear. I don't know of many that entered the business as a tag team outside of maybe childhood friends like Edge and Christian and siblings like the Hardys.

It would be a neat success story after all of those years being squandered before in developmental and the indies.

Do you really think he could have gotten over with the "Gavin Spears" gimmick? If the writing had backed him up, he would have been more. That's what I mean by "squandered". He's being squandered like anyone the writers don't care enough about to write stories for.

That's assuming that Sanity is going to debut without doing some shenanigans, like loving around with other wrestlers and getting themselves DQed on purpose. There's no way to tell until it happens.

Well, what better way to build them out of jobber status with the help of a veteran like Eric Young? It's not like there's any way they can be seen as credible if you never see them on TV.

Shoot Nation. It had Sawyer Fulton, Angelo Dawkins, Tucker Knight, Jason Jordan, and Chad Gable. It never made it to TV. Funny thing is, that Jordan and Gable were often tagging together in that stable, meaning they were paired up almost a year before they tagged on TV.
