WyattSheepMask Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 (edited) There just isnât enough there with Nikki Cross. For the last year on NXT sheâs just come across as goofy comedy rather than someone whose had a psychotic break. An unhinged psychopath shouldnât be playing to the crowd for laughs. At times it was like her only point of reference for a character was the mad jailer from Life of Brian. Her entrance is the same thing every time, run into the ropes (same order every time) and slam her jacket on the mat a few times, if sheâs supposedly unhinged sheâd a million & one different things going through her broken mind at a single moment, so mix it up. Randy Orton freely admits that he hears voices in his head, they council him because they understand and thatâs why they talk to him, but heâs methodical in his approach, yet Nikki Cross is at the âWOAH! IâM FUCKING MAD ME!â end of the spectrum. The whole âNikki has a secretâ in the Aleister Black attack angle made no fucking sense. If she was that batty sheâd just blurt it out to the first person she saw. Unless the whole gimmick is of a woman pretending to be mad to throw her opponents off guard Edited February 4, 2019 by WyattSheepMask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casually mentioned to my Dad that Mene Gene had passed away and without missing a beat, he started to re-tell the sorry of him seeing 'Hogan doing the Wrestling' in Cwm working mens club in the 70's. He's told me the story many times, and no amount of fact checking or reasoning will convince him otherwise. Well now he claims Mene Gene was there too.  Hogan, Gene and the lads. In a South Wales working mens club. In the 70's.  I love it. Great, Chinny reckon.  Reminds me of a lad from our school, the type who was always lying, telling everyone in the Summer of 1997 that he'd just got back from the States, where he'd managed to watch a rehearsal of Summerslam a few weeks before the show itself. Absolute chinny reckon, but annoyingly he managed to predict about half of the results correctly! He went on to argue that everything else was only changed because they were scared of the rehearsal results being leaked. Of course. I wonder if there's room for a Chinny Reckon Wrestling thread?  Edited February 4, 2019 by Supremo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of curiosity I don't suppose you remember if he had Bret winning the belt? I ask because I have vivid memories of being absolutely clueless as to what they were going to book given the stips having over Bret and Shawn. I'd love to know if this chancer called that result.

Paid Members Statto Posted February 4, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted February 4, 2019 Kid I went to school with claimed Sunday Night Heat was going to be held at Carrow Road one week. Not Raw, not Smackdown, a specific Sunday Night Heat taping. And this was well into the point where Sunday Night Heat was a c-show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Reverend Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 In my early days of fandom (and long before the internet) a kid at school in the queue for lunch told me Sgt Slaughter had come out at Wrestlemania VI and shot someone. Having only seen his picture in the first WWF sticker album (where he was holding a gun) and knowing this was American wrestling, where anything went, and in the USA which I only knew from films, I believed him. Also the oft-told story that the returning Warrior at Wrestlemania 8 was in fact the Texas Tornado! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted February 4, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted February 4, 2019 If we're into cobblers mis-reports, my oft-told favourite is how some lad at youth club (yes) in the days after the US Intrepid bodyslam challenge aired over here, reliably informed me "The Narcissist came out of the sky in a helicopter, powerslammed Yokozuna, pinned him and now he's the WWF Champion." I was so excited I immediately went home and updated Lugers "titles held" section in my Panini book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
