ROH World TV Champion "STONE PIT BULL" TOMOHIRO ISHII
IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion KUSHIDA
"RAINMAKER" KAZUCHIKA OKADA
GEDO
NEVER Openweight Six Men Tag Team Champion HIROSHI TANAHASHI
JUSHIN "THUNDER" LIGER

 

Been wanting to see Cabana have an actual run in a legit company again where he can do more than just his comedy act for a very long time now, so i'm very much looking forward to that.

I think alot of wrestling fans forgot how good Colt can be when he's not just doing goofy comedy spots at random indie shows.

 

Adam Rose is going to explain why he got suspended and why it shouldn't have happened I guess?

TwitLonger — When you talk too much for Twitter

 

Watch his stuff in NOAH with Hero. Dude has been killing it for a year straight over there

 

I honestly think Cabana wins the title.

I also just want Lethal to drop it though. lol

 

Just realized that we're coming up on Itami being out for a year now. Looking at the NXT roster, they don't have a lot of contenders for the NXT title with a bunch of them just being called up. I'm guessing Itami is hot shotted to the title picture to take down Finn.

 

nakamura, aries, roode, itami eventually, joe's still there. mid card that's taken more of a hit.

 

I don't think Nakamura will be in NXT long enough for him to ever be in the title picture. Aries could be in the picture, but I don't think he'd ever get the title, and Roode hasn't debuted yet so I can't even count him. Just with Itami there's a built in story for him coming back from injury and there should be a lot of hype around the return. Crews, Corbin, and Sami were all obvious high midcard/main event status guys. NXT will rebound like they always have, but they lost a lot of guys in the transition and I think Itami with a new energy is a real good way to go

 

PRINCE PUMA

 

NXT needs stars like Nakamura, Bayley and Joe to help get people hooked on NXT. He'll stay in NXT at least until they have another star in there to replace him when he leaves (and possibly longer as Joe is due a call up first)

 

The second Ricochet signs with WWE, they are golden.

 

And a natural way to turn Finn heel by revealing he was the one that attacked Itami in the first place.

 

Lucha tho

 

Nakamura will stay in NXT because I don't know if Vince sees "star" with him like everyone else thinks.

 

They're gonna say it was Anderson and Gallows who attacked them and it was Finn who orchestrated it.

 

I missed it tonight.

 

I would argue that he will get rushed to the main roster, purely because of what they are paying for him, but I absolutely see where you're coming from. I'd say that he is either paid top money to replace Balor as the breadwinner for NXT, or we see him on the main roster by the post-SummerSlam Raw at the latest.

 

He'll be utilized much better in NXT. When it comes to the main roster, when's the last time WWE didn't fuck up a made star from a foreign market?

 

if that's true, it's just very very sad

 

Fucking bummer, man.

 

What's sad is that part of me feels like I shouldn't believe it

 

Always sucks though

 

Woah.

 

TMZ reported it just now on Twitter. Looks like sadly it's real. Ugh.
