DavidB6937 Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 If I had to commit to a guess right now I think I'd go with Angle. We know he's happy to go to other companies in the right circumstances. And the way his career ended with WWE, I just feel like that wouldn't sit well with him. This feels like an opportunity for him to change that somehow. Someone like Punk seems like he'd really be okay if he never appeared anywhere again. I'm rarely right though.
Paid Members FLips Posted March 5, 2021 Paid Members Posted March 5, 2021 The WWE on Fox account just posted that The Usos want to fight Edge and Christian so it seems Christian may be out of the running.
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted March 5, 2021 Paid Members Posted March 5, 2021 One of the Khan families chief legal officer started following Big Show and Christian on instagram last week. Seems like it's probably Christian.
d-d-d-dAz Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 It would make sense. It was the first name that jumped to mind, Moxley and Jericho have been fluffing him recently and he sort of fits the bill. They’ve definitely overcooked it, though, if it is him.
The King Of Swing Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 If it's Christian I'll laugh my arse off. Anyone thinking he's a big signing probably also thinks that Cesaro should be main eventing Wrestlemania. I could buy him as the mystery wrestler in the ladder match but that's it.
d-d-d-dAz Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 (edited) I mean, Christian IS great. His matches are always fun and he has decent singles efforts as well as tag. He’s just not what jumps to mind when you hear the ‘biggest scoop ever’. I bet he’d have some brilliant matches with the AEW roster. Christian/Omega could be heaps of fun.

Agreed, I really like Christian and I'd be happy as pie for him to have another upper mid card flirt in WWE or AEW but if he's the surprise then they have really over cooked their eggs. No matter how much I like him he's mainly been positioned as an upper mid carder in WWE and also has that awful TNA stink still on him. The reason Show is a wow signing is because he doesn't have that stink and is a perennial main eventer for WWE (and he's ace) I also really don't want it to be Kurt or Foley. Kurt because he was so immobile on his last run it was genuinely sad and worrying. Foley just because he can't possibly work and he's a bit creepy when not in character.

I could imagine the first thing he would do would be to get a selfie with Anna Jay and Tay Conti while half dressed as Santa. Probably ask them if they’ve got change for the vending machine while he was there. Edited March 5, 2021 by TheBurningRed
Mr Butternut Squash Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 Fingers crossed it's Christian then. About the only likely one I could possibly give a fuck about. I mean what are you supposed to do with 2021 Kurt Angle? Also love how Tony K said that it's a big signing and people have gone completely mental running with it. Just working themselves into tears at bedtime.
d-d-d-dAz Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 Christian is the one who adds the most value over the medium term, at least. There’s proper programs he can work with talent from up and down the card.
Kamaras-Tash Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 What a damp squib it'll be if it's Christian, never been a fan of him as a solo wrestling or personality wise, I suppose he can actually move so that'll be an improvement on Angle but jesus
Paid Members TheBurningRed Posted March 5, 2021 Paid Members Posted March 5, 2021 The thing with Kurt Angle is, the lights are on but no ones home. The poor guy is fucked. He struggled to say WWE and McMahon when he became GM on Raw. He’d probably be all over the place and even worse now.
Paid Members DEF Posted March 5, 2021 Paid Members Posted March 5, 2021 The messed up thing is if it is Christian is that if the had reversed the roles with him and Show it would have worked perfectly. Show would have been a genuine 'WTF' moment walking out.
Moderators PowerButchi Posted March 5, 2021 Moderators Posted March 5, 2021 Christian as the All Star Wrestling babyface ace of GoodECW in 2009 was fucking brilliant, but his middle aged jaundice tanned arse wouldn't do it for me at the moment. Also, didn't Meltz say after the Rumble he was going to wrestle more often for WWE?
