Yeah, it seems like the crowd will never let him forget it (though it's been letting up since his call up to the main roster) Bo is coming up soon, too, with his new-ish gimmick. (I guess he developed it at the end of the summer last year) The promos they've been running for Bo have been hilarious! The second one is my favorite. He was so boring before he started the "Bolieve" gimmick.
No, I didn't, but that's cool! I think they just took a bunch of stock video footage from a b-roll website. They do that kind of stuff with music down in NXT. Tyler Breeze's music (one of my favorite NXT wrestlers) was used in some advertising for the Olympics this year.
In the US it's only available on the WWE Network and Hulu Plus. The network is a great buy though, especially if you order at least one PPV in a 6 month period normally. Wrestlemania streamed perfectly for me. NXT is better than Raw and Smackdown I think and before the network I was paying 8 dollars or whatever Hulu Plus costs just to watch it.
Speaking of which, is anyone watching Extreme Rules this Sunday? It's not gonna be 'mania, but the card looks okay. We'll see if Paige (another NXT grad) can drag a good match out of Tamina. Evolution vs. the Shield looks to be awesome. Kane vs. Daniel Bryan could be very good. Bryan has exciting matches regardless of his opponent. Not super excited for Cesaro/Swagger/RVD. I love Cesaro and Swagger, and I love their feud, but RVD doesn't have great matches anymore, and seemed to have awful chemistry with Cesaro, who I love. I guess we'll see in a few days.
Extreme Rules was awesome, by the way. Every single match was awesome except for maybe the Cena cage match, but it was okay. Everything else was awesome. Even the stupid WeeLC gimmick match.
Going to the WWE tour at Glasgow Hydro tomorrow night. Top match - Daniel Bryan v Kane Also, Shield v Orton, Ryback and Axel. Should be good. YES YES YES!
Uh, hate to break it to you, but Daniel Bryan just announced he's having neck surgery. That could be storyline stuff, but who really knows?
Guess we'll find out tomorrow night then. Will be a bit dissapointed, a 15,000 seater arena giving the 'yes' chant would be fun to be in.
In any case, the Shield are on a tear right now and haven't put on a bad match in forever, so that'll be great. Also, Ryback and Curtis Axel have been awesome. That time Ryback was on commentary was great, and they've been impressing me.
So Daniel Bryan was injured which was a shame, but they got Randy Orton to do the main talking part at the start, so at least we got the superstar entry. The usual Raw ring announcer (shame it wasn’t the smackdown bird), was present and he offered full refund for anyone who was disappointed that Bryan would not be there, as long as they left in the first 20 minutes. Decent enough show, Ambrose and Rollins v Ryback and Axel, Kane v Big Show, Mark Henry v Fandango having a dance off. Sin Cara v someone, RVB against someone a Divas match including Paige, and an NXT bout. Then to finish, a steelcage match between Orton and Roman Reigns. Orton must have smashed him properly as the ref had to get his gloves on and wipe the blood off Reigns. Obviously as the match went on Ryback and Axel got involved, kicked fuck out of Reigns, before the other members of the Shield came in to save the day. Orton dished out an RKO finisher which Reigns got back up from and won the match with a spear. Wouldn’t go every week, but a decent laugh for a one off. They must however be making a killing. Two shows most weeks in the US, to I’m guessing good sized arenas. They sold out the Glasgow Hydro arena which is 15,000 seater. The merchandise queues were swamped all night. T-shirts selling for £25. Thought they had a bit of a cheek selling Daniel Bryan and Cenas merch when they were not even there. Vince McMahon is certainly got it sewed up! Pictures when I have time to work out how to post them from my phone.
Yeah, there was a particularly gnarly picture of Roman Reigns' eye after that match. The gif makes it look like Orton wanted to do his scoop powerslam and Reigns was doing his spear. Someone messed up. http://www.gfycat.com/RightJoyousGoldfinch https://twitter.com/WWERomanReigns/status/466748578581729280 I bet Ambrose and Rollins vs. Rybaxel was awesome. Paige is always great. Who wrestled in the NXT match?
Heres the run down. http://www.wrestlingnewsworld.com/w...-scotland-refunds-offered-reigns-busted-open/ The dude who won the NXT match had a brilliant finishing move. Some kind of acrobatic somersault swan dive off the top rope.
That's Adrian Neville. He's not my favorite wrestler, but that move is very impressive. Bo Dallas is pretty good, but he's really come into his own with his gimmick change last summer. His promos on Raw have been awesome, and his new music/entrance is awesome as well. It's too bad you didn't get to see Sami Zayn, but they probably wanted the champion/European winning over someone. They're also saving the Neville/Zayn matchup for way down the line, I think.
