    WZCW Discussion Thread

    The only reason I've ever hated the removal of the edit feature has been re-reading my RPs and seeing things I can't fix. It drives me bonkers. It also confuses me why then so many of you tell me nice things about them anyway. This show is going to take a while to finish, but ol' Jose is glad...

    Anniversary Show: Alhazred and Frank Mortlock vs. Gordito + Saboteur w/ Action Saxton

    [?]: "Spoiler alert: I haven't cut a promo in years." A familiar voice over a black, blank screen. [?]: "I wouldn't even know where to start. Where to end. What even would the people want to hear from The Dirty One? Would you want to hear about success? About conquest?" We cut to a...

    Vince not a fan of NXT?

    See, businesses like to do things like this to hide money they've made and use money they've spent to save more money. NXT may also be the little tax shelter that could. Not making a profit and not making any money are not the same things at all in this context. I'd really like to see that...

    Vince not a fan of NXT?

    I'd call that being fairly successful. Facebook operated at a loss for a decade. Amazon took it in the shorts for 9 years. TBS...actually, probably not the greatest idea to mention them when talking about wrestling. The point is, operating at a loss doesn't mean you aren't making money or...

    Vince not a fan of NXT?

    Until some hard numbers are released, I don't think you can say that they do make a lot of money. At least in the context of this discussion, "a lot" is going to compared to main roster numbers. You can say, however, that NXT is successful and that NXT is a draw. If these were not true, we...

    The NXT Thread Is Like Ring of Honor's Bay-Bay!

    Have you ever been to Florida? That place should be called "the skeezy state".

    Small guys do it better

    Contrarian meta-hipsters are VERY much an IWC cliche, hence my comments. I'd argue it is more the difference between a clothesline and a shoulder tackle. Similar enough to trip more than just myself up, apparently. No, you just people who feel the need to play a certain role in it, like...

    The NXT Thread Is Like Ring of Honor's Bay-Bay!

    My heart says "yes". My head says "we already have Alex Riley".

    I always thought they were the same because they look the same. Especially the contrarian meta-hipsters who feel they aren't very much a part of the same community they love to dismiss. Try harder.

    Vince not a fan of NXT?

    What Vince and many others (yourself seemingly included) focused on was the gratuitous violence and adult content. What was lost was the attitude (no pun intended) and mystique. I'm not talking about senseless gimmick matches, I'm talking about the magic that made guys like Taz and others look...

    Unfortunately, yes I have. "Follow through". K. It's not always from the ropes, he does it in the corner plenty.

    Considering that most pics I find have Reigns hitting with his forearm anyway, I'm standing by my decision to compare the two, regardless of which is called what.

    Small guys do it better

    The first of those five totally looked like a punch. The rest is egg on my face. I hardly ever listen to main show commentary, as weak a defense that is.

    Vince not a fan of NXT?

    I don't know if Vince hates NXT, but I do know that we usually hate what we don't understand, and Vince has NEVER understood what makes a product like NXT as good as it is. This is evidenced by, among other things, his failure to duplicate ECW; he failed because he never truly understood what...
