Sami Zayn's mentor El Generico vs some guy who looks like Adrian Neville.

Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards on NXT?! Yes!!!

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

Hopefully the American Pitbulls/Wolves will get signed to a real deal. Signing them when be a huge boost to the tag team division. I am just surprise that Davey Richards (can't remember what WWE is call him instead) agreed to this. Triple H has tried to sign him before but Richards declined due to the road schedule.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

Hopefully they can keep Davey down in NXT until that fool learns some psychology. With how he wrestles, that could take years and years though.

He needs to stay in a tag team and never have it be broken up, because I will flip the channel if he does the same stupid **** he did in ROH and elsewhere.

With that being said, I will say if (and that's a HUGE if) he can learn some psychology and how to work a proper match... the man has undeniable talent that can be used.

Davey couldn't sell a raft to a drowning man.

He's been in one of the strongest "Wrestling" organizations for like... almost 8 years. He has zero grasp of how to tell a story in the ring, he has zero grasp on how to properly sell... well, anything, he has zero grasp on how to properly pace a match and he has zero grasp on the bigger picture of things. Also, Chris Benoit could put him to shame on the microphone and that is saying something. He's nothing more than a glorified spot monkey at this point in his career.

The good points? He's intense. I love intensity (a la Triple H when he is feeling it) in my wrasslers. He's got a great handle on actually performing moves. The moves he does do are fairly crisp. I also love stiff shots every now and then. He will have to move away from being mainly a "striker" though.

I can sum up his ****tiness in one gif.



Put this man with Finlay and Regal and have them kick his *** for years until he gets it through his head on how to properly tell a story in the ring.

Give me Cena and his 4 moves of doom (adding a few every now and again for big occasions) who can actually tell a story in a match over Davey "I do moves just to show I can do them" Richards.

that gif is sweet, better than most of the current WWE roster

If you think that sequence belongs in a wrestling match, then I can see why you like Davey.

You're also ****ting yourself if you think WWE wrestlers can't perform simple stuff like that. It's literally just two suplexes with no psychology applied to them.

They don't, because it doesn't belong.

LOL guess different strokes for different folks. I just watch WWE and see alot of mess ups. Their camera people sometimes are the worse in the biz. Sayin Richards can't work the mic and Beniot would/is better ur true in sayin that isn't sayin much. I would have to say 80% he$^ 95% of the roster cant cut a promo to save their life. As for the two suplex thing it would have been fine if ( couldn't tell who the other guy was but guessin its Edwards) would have did a knee to the gut or something.

You can't tell me The 3 to 5 Yes Kicks is a great thing? Like Yes hes kickin me in the chest oh yes he's doing it again, and yes thank you one more time and etc. Or Cm Punk's god awful top rope elbow drop that makes him look afraid to jump every time he does it. Almost every wrestler has flaws either mic,performance,drug issue and etc.

Sad thing I honestly think NXT has a better product than RAW or Smackdown for suppose development talent they put on a far better show than RAW or Smack.

But like I said different strokes for different folks.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

Oh I love NXT, and I'm by far a "WWE Apologist."

There are a ton of flaws in the product today (my qualms are mainly booking & storyline continuity-related though.) Richards does the same kick to the chest thing as Bryan. Punk is great, but his moves are quite sloppy. Cena does the same finish to a lot of matches.

The difference between all those wrestlers and Davey is those guys know how to properly tell a story and get people involved in the big matches. I'm not talking throwaway RAW matches that we see every week... but blowoff matches at the PPV. They can draw the crowd in and tell great stories with their ring-work.

Davey hits spots just to hit spots, and that's quite boring in the long run. Like I said, he's crisp and has talent... if he can get someone like Regal or Finlay to teach him how to tell a story, they'll have a good wrestler for a long time on their hands.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

A gut to the knee doesn't make up for no selling a superplex. I haven't seen Richards before, but that's what I hate about a lot of "Indy" guys (and TNA's X Division back in the day). Sell a move occasionally. It's not about how many kewl mewvs you can do in a ten minute match.

Maybe I'm watchin the video incorrect but Richards is the one who does the suplex and edwards is the one who gets right up after suffering a top rope suplex and does one of this own. Or maybe I'm just not understandin what ur sayin. Lol I am runnin on a lack of sleep.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

I don't see how you could like guys no selling stuff. It's not just about doing a bunch of big spots, because that's not good wrestling, it's a montage video. They could have did the suplex to the outside later on during the match, because a superplex is supposed to hurt both guys a good deal.

I can look past poor mic skills, a little sloppy of the moves, etc., but if you don't sell things when they are needed to be, you are awful in my opinion.
