AssaultDriver720 Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 Well you know this thread needed to be made. Anyways all the NWA wrestlers (Besides KES) that were brought to New Japan all suck balls. Rob Conway now trying to be a poor mans Macho Man.

LEGION Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 Here's mine: Rob Conway has improved a lot in his role as face of NWA and I start to actually like him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Zombie Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 Cool thread idea. I rarely go outside the Indy/Puro/Lucha board and the WWE2K Discussion & CAW boards but I've seen these around. I wonder if this will get as much action as the rest. Anyways all the NWA wrestlers (Besides KES) that were brought to New Japan all suck balls. Rob Conway now trying to be a poor mans Macho Man. I can agree on this from what I've seen. Are KES NWA wrestlers though? I could have sworn they were there/together before the whole NWA thing. Anyways, here are some of mine... Intergender wrestling is currently one of the biggest things wrong with wrestling. (I liked it before but it's become too much recently IMO) Chikara really isn't as great as people make it out to be. CZW, Despite their bad reputation (Which isn't even warranted anymore I may add) and all over the place storylines, probably have one of the best products going today. I personally find ROH highly over-rated these days. I haven't seen a lot but it's a shell of it's former self and I don't see how people still look at it as a mecca for great wrestling. I think that title belongs to PWG these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyriqz ✪ Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 - Candice LaRae is really, really overrated. She's good, no doubt about that but there's a lot of female talent that are better than her. The only reason she's consistently mentioned as a top female performer is her intergender booking. Replace her in PWG with any of the skilled girls, it'd be the same, just better. - ROH is only good on PPV now, the weeklies are incredibly boring and monotone. - PWG is the best company in the world.

phoenixsplash420 Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 Agreed with pwg being the best and I will add one. Super Dragon is currently the best booker in wrestling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooocoool Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Misawa is defintely in my top 5 wrestlers of all time but i hated how little he used to put guys over. He was a sorta of 2003 HHH until he started to recognize that it was time..but there was HUGE difference, Misawa always put 5 star matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunchbox Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Candice really won my respect after that match with the Young Bucks. So brutal she was out of it well after the show was over. As for my unpopular opinion, CHIKARA 2014 sucked overall. Saw a drop in the production value, the storylines where really boring and really not resolved and the match quality wasn't there. Ashely Remington was the only thing i gave a shit about in 2014 and its because hes *censored*ing wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, and the wrestling fans who are truely into wrestling and are watching everythig at least a little know that, but you can tell that those who only watch because they hear a name hear and there a little reduce her to that and completely base their opinion on that. Which is a shame, because she shouldn't be reduced to that. She's incredibly tough. Not "just for a woman" but just a tough human being, she's a decent to good wrestler in her own right. She shouldn't just be the "chick who wrestles the guys" imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if it came across that way. I was just letting you know that that's unfortunately how she will be viewed for the foreseeable future, because of Dragon's dislike for women's wrestling; and because of PWG's booking of her, that's how a lot of other companies will book her as well, because that's what she's famous for at this point.

Punkfoot Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 I find a majority of mainstream Indy wrestling to be too much of a spot fest these days. Elgin's first match in BOLA this year is a prime example. There were multiple botches and they just kept pushing. I don't know.. It really made me mad lol. I dunno. Maybe it's me.

That really depends on who/what you watch though, I think. I haven't watched a ton of Guerrilla, but they do seem very spotty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rozay. Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 I don't like Jumbo Tsuruta, even though he's a god to many puro purists. Never saw any match of his that I found appealing. I actually avoid watching matches he's in, even if it's against someone I really like like Tenryu or Race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
