Trips runs NXT so while your statement is obviously true, the fact is if it was going to cause issues with sponsors or the network, why wait?

Stop questioning logic within WWE because it's a waste of time and we can be here all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpykeDudlei1 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Bravo WWE. It’s taken just one whole week since Mania for me to lose interest in sitting through a show again and simply jumping straight to a quick spoilers read. Has to be some sort of record.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted April 16, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted April 16, 2019 I usually think that the name doesnt matter so much, because if you get over you can be called whatever you like. But "The Viking Experience" is an all-time shit name. Sounds like a mystery prize you'd win on the Tipping Point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted April 16, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted April 16, 2019 Every December on local news they run a story about a "Winter Wonderland" where people turn up only to find a muddy field, no snow, and a Santa's grotto made of plastic bags, manned by a Santa who has definitely not had a DBS check. The Viking Experience sounds exactly the same but with a dilapidated long boat that can't float instead of a grotto and 2 Vikings who are wearing trackies and smoking fags with plastic helmets with horns on. I'd sooner they sounded like crisps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK Kat Von D Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Surprised they didn’t just called them Raiders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Blog Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Yeah I did wonder why they never went with just 'The Raiders'. It's still not great but at this point it sounds amazing in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam O'Rourke Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I especially like the effort that went into naming Erik. There's a show called Vikings with characters with names like Ragnar, Horik, Torstein and Athelstan. Those are decent names. Fucking Erik? I have people in my office called Erik, and I don't have a particularly Viking Experience 9 to 5. I know it's a reference to Erik the Red, but there's a reason history records him as Erik the Red and not Erik, and that's because Erik was the bloke down the corridor working in finance. The Nordic Invasion. The Norsemen (well, maybe not). Hell, even try something interesting and give them a fucking Viking surname and call them the Rurik Dynasty or something so it smells a little more authentic than two wankers playing dress up for your birthday party Viking Experience.

Loki Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Fucking hell, EC3's Raw run must count as one of the most brutal. I'm not normally one for conspiracy theories but someone in power must hate him. Even though he's not the greatest, he deserves at least a chance, hopefully on Smackdown. Who do we think are heading the other way, then? I reckon Roman Reigns, The Revival, Drew McIntyre possibly. Bayley? Seeing as they pretty much buried Sasha last night. I would say Balor, but he's got a belt so that complicates things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members chokeout Posted April 16, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted April 16, 2019 I'm not saying it's a bad name but... The top result on youtube for Viking Experience is an over 50s cruise holiday It really does strike fear into the heart of their enemies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Kennedy Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 The obvious solution here was to bring back Neville and shoehorn him into the team. Wor Raiders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
