WWE/NXT/AEW/NJPW Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Just can’t get into anything involving Baszler. The whole NXT women’s division has been pretty lackluster since Asuka left.

I know they have good performers, I just haven’t been able to get into anything they’re doing.

I think she probably has the most believable bully act in wrestling right now. She's pretty much what I thought Ronda should have been from day one. Just a remorseless killer who is out not just to win, but to hurt people too.

And I love how the style she works is an extension of her character, doing a lot of joint manipulation and hand stomps, much like the style Pete Dunne works.
 
All In 2 and AEW have been announced
 
Ordered Wrestle Kingdom 13 to watch Saturday, so I'm trying like hell to avoid the results today. Very difficult when the dirt sheets are in my regular rotation of websites.

I came to complain and won’t.

Watched. Wasn't really surprised by the results given the impending departure of the Elite. Will be interesting to see what Kenny Omega does.

Ok, so my gripe is that AEW effectively forced it to be predictable. I also hate Jay White. Omega got shafted by them and I 100% expect him to show up st the rumble.

With so many of their top draws leaving I understand why they needed Jay White to win.

You’re right though. AEW couldn’t have waited to announce at their rally?

The Omega loss has me believing he is gone. WWE is certainly an option. AEW seems like a step backwards for him in his prime.
 
I think Omega shows up at the Rumble, much like Styles before him.

Really hope they have him do an NXT run first, but given how much they'll probably be paying him that's not likely.
 
Wish they would pair Omega up with a Rollins, Styles, or Bryan and give them 45 minutes to just light the world on fire at Wrestlemania

I’m a Rollins guy, but it would be sweet to see him win the Rumble, then beat Brock at Mania.
 
That Hulk Hogan promo was touching, only him could pull that one off. Damn, if you were a 80's, 90's wrestling fan, all of our heroes are slowly going one by one, including Mean Gene.
 
Gonna be interesting to see where Omega lands. The way he's playing it, I think he re-ups with NJPW and wins back his title. It's just strange the way he announced he's leaving NJPW despite his contract not being up yet. I think it's a work.

When Styles went to WWE, he entered the Rumble as a surprise. Yeah, a lot of us predicted it, but he never announced he was leaving NJPW. He just appeared in the Rumble later that month.
 
Sounds like AEW for Omega with his contract not expiring until January 31. Rumble would be out either way.

Report said NJPW didn't like finding out about his departure from an interview, but they really don't want to lose him, so this may open the door for a working relationship between NJPW and AEW.

Yeah, definitely sounding like Omega is going to AEW, which makes sense. I still think he and NJPW might be pulling a work and he ends up wrestling for both.

Nice to see AEW got Jericho too. That's huge for them.
