He definitely came across as a bit laddy and ostentatious in his earlier years, but I think he’s grown into someone people really like across the board. The outpouring of genuine love and emotion for him from most of wrestlings good eggs when he was sacked and then had his heart pop, showed me enough to think he’s a good bloke. AEW folks, WWE folks.. men, women… they all lined up to say he was the absolute best. Kevin Owens is a pretty good barometer of twat, and even he was fawning over Trippers.

Paid Members I Bent My Wookie Posted August 2, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted August 2, 2022 HHH being in a creative position gives me no hope for Bronn Breaker. He's probably getting horrible flashbacks of 2002 and Steiner having more muscles than him every time he sees him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Nick James Posted August 2, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted August 2, 2022 Wasn't Breakker already signed during the Black and Gold days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted August 2, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted August 2, 2022 I haven’t kept up with WWE or NXT or any of the product in ages but caught bits and pieces of Rick Steiner’s lad. With Vince gone, is there any chance they finally drop the shite Bronn Breakker name and let him use Steiner? Or are they too far along now? I’m guessing the name is staying. Just seems pointless to me when everything about him screams ‘Steiner’ and he looks, acts and sounds like an exact mix of Rick and Scott. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The King Of Swing Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Be considered a good guy in wrestling is on par with Kane being considered smart because he can read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar James Drake and Zack Gibson. And don’t forget Walter becoming Gunther, Pete Dunne becoming Butch (although was more of a complete gimmick overhaul going from NXT to MainRoster). Most of those happened while Vince was still around, but even this weekend Io Shirai got changed to Iyo Skye, again having been there a number of years, so it’s possible that Bronn Breaker could get renamed at some point, it’ll depend on whether they decide to really lean into him being a Steiner or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d-d-d-dAz Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 I’m not sure it’s spoken about enough how badly written Edge’s return has been the last few years. Misfire after misfire. I bet sometimes he wishes he’d stayed home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Everything feels a bit less tightly wound - the promos, the matches, the commentators.  Small steps but it does help the product. Thing is, you can't fix that it's a 3 hour show.  That third hour is always going to be an hour too much. Bayley though - I don't get the love.  She looks like someone's mum who's wandered out into the arena. 1 hour ago, d-d-d-dAz said: how badly written Edge’s return has been I missed his first main event run, so I can't compare but he's always been a bit shit for me.  Now he's just older, and still a bit rubbish.

The Gaffer Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) Edge is a perfect example of a guy who has suffered by being quintessentially WWE. It's all he's ever done and the only system he's ever run in. People don't like Cody but his return was tip top. Certain guys like that who are perennial 7s and 8s - and who know it - can really get a fire under their arse bouncing between big leagues or going king of the indies for awhile. Edge has always been well liked and a top player for practically the entirety of his WWE career. He has just enough sway to do his rubbish character ideas and just enough complacency to do them within the company blueprint. Edited August 3, 2022 by Gay as FOOK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-d-d-dAz Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 (edited) Incredible. I guess we can discount the idea of Vince continuing to shadow manage the whole operation. Trippers is basically putting the band back together. Edited August 9, 2022 by d-d-d-dAz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
