They could do worse than make him a lucha Stone Cold or a Vampiro (no, he wasn't good, but the guy had a ton of bad-ass charisma that carried him further than his abilities would normally allow). Cody Rhodes looks like a villain in the old style, but in the current era in which so many people consume anime, manga, and videogames, he looks like a blue-eye, especially with that Final Fantasy-looking ring coat with all the extravagant accessories. Japanese video games as a frame of reference? Double heel. Quote

Paid Members Carbomb Posted January 14, 2025 Paid Members Posted January 14, 2025 (edited) Forgot to mention: one thing that stands out is the sports feel of "this is big transfer news!" in the way that they had to artificially engineer for MVP (much as I loved the character and its presentation, it really did come across as such carny bullshit that this guy, whom nobody could possibly have heard of because there was nowhere for him to build a reputation, was the hottest free agent in the wrestling world), and I remember it also worked quite well when they did the same with AJ Styles. 1 minute ago, d-d-d-dAz said: Japanese video games as a frame of reference?

He complained more when he had to wrestle them and there might be a thought he would have to do a job. Jericho was something of a threat to HHH back then but Penta is no threat to Executive Producer Paul Levesque at any point. That may explain his difference in attitude. Quote
Cannibal Man Posted January 14, 2025 Posted January 14, 2025 AEW are tits for not giving Penta some sort of main event run after some of the tawdry auld shite they've tried at the top. I'd usually rather eat hot poisonous man's poo than watch RAW but even the photos of Penta's merch have got me rubbing my hands and going OOOHHH WHY NOT, NETFLIX HEY, NOT ILLEGAL IS IT Quote

What a phrase. Quote

Paid Members Chris B Posted January 14, 2025 Paid Members Posted January 14, 2025 (edited) Is the poo poisonous or the man? EDIT: Wait, and is the man hot or the poo? Is this a hot, but unfortunately poisonous man having a poo, a man having an unfortunately hot poisonous poo, or a hot man having an unfortunately poisonous poo? I just want to understand @Cannibal Man's enthusiasm or lack of enthusiasm for what he's talking about eating, and this is considering his username. Edited January 14, 2025 by Chris B Quote
