Tim Evans Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 Knowing FCW, his role probably changes weekly.

jdw Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 So do people snorting coke. That doesn't mean it's good for them. John

S.L.L. Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 Rob Naylor as the Precious to Ricardo Rodriguez' Sunshine is an angle with great potential in my imagination.
NintendoLogic Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 That Amazon-looking blonde chick in the Naylor segment is Danielle Moinet, formerly of the Lingerie Football League. Does she have an onscreen name yet? It'd be pretty funny if she got to keep her name and Eddie Guerrero's daughter didn't.
Loss Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Posted February 3, 2012 I'm wondering when Rob Naylor will become Marcus Sheehan or something.

Log Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 Went to this play last night. Pretty amazing show. If it comes 'round your area, be sure to check it out. It was obviously written by someone who's a HUGE wrestling geek.
Coffey Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 I feel like the only wrestling fan on the internet that has no idea who Rob Naylor is. I looked it up & it makes sense because I never watched DGUSA but I didn't think DGUSA was that popular in the first place, so his popularity is surprising to me.
Loss Posted February 4, 2012 Author Report Posted February 4, 2012 He used to post at this board (not frequently, but sometimes) and way more frequently at DVDVR.
Strummer Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 He used to post at this board (not frequently, but sometimes) and way more frequently at DVDVR. It's been a while but I remember him arguing against the "Work smart", "Play your role well" trend on the net and being more into the "high impact" offense stuff that was popular in the beginning part of the decade

I looked it up & it makes sense because I never watched DGUSA but I didn't think DGUSA was that popular in the first place, so his popularity is surprising to me. It has nothing to do with DGUSA. More to do with his posts on DVDR and tonnes more forums like CZWFans. Personally for me it was probably his appearences on the awesome and frankly extremely influential Joe Vs The World podcast at the start of the podcast boom. His appearance on JVSTW lead to him being an in demand podcast guest which then lead him cohosting his own show with goodhelmet on here. He also gained a bunch of friends in the wrestling business by going to shows and from those lurking/posting on forums reading his posts. Extremely entertaining communicator and knowledgeable guy who definitely tapped into what was happening on the indies the past 10+ years or so.
Mad Dog Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 I find WWF squash matches to be really tedious to sit through. It feels like the stars are just sleep walking through the match most of the time and it always feels slow and plodding. The matches always seem to go on too long. I find myself bored after about an episode. JCP shows on the other hand, I could sit through hours of squash matches on those shows. Just seeing the way the JCP guys absolutely destroy guys week after week makes me really happy. The JCP shows just feel so fast paced and fun compared to the WWF television.
CFTV Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 I love this phooney phone call by Sal and Richard from the Stern show to a pro wrestling radio show from a few years ago!
Matt D Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 Naylor is a guy who loves what he loves as earnestly and emotionally as anyone and is really good at letting others feel how they feel too, disagreeing without insulting, so it's hard to fault him for much.
Johnny Sorrow Posted February 6, 2012 Report Posted February 6, 2012 Naylor is a guy who loves what he loves as earnestly and emotionally as anyone and is really good at letting others feel how they feel too, disagreeing without insulting, so it's hard to fault him for much.He's a great guy and more power to him.
sek69 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Posted February 6, 2012 I could see Rob being a better Josh Matthews than Josh Matthews is, if that makes any sense. I just hope he doesn't end up one of those guys who hates the business after being run through the WWE wringer, It would be sad to see someone who enjoys what he does have it get squashed.
Matt D Posted February 6, 2012 Report Posted February 6, 2012 Sometimes I wonder: did we change or did wrestling change?
El-P Posted February 6, 2012 Report Posted February 6, 2012 Sometimes I wonder: did we change or did wrestling change? Both.
Matt D Posted February 6, 2012 Report Posted February 6, 2012 I also want to broach the topic of cultural divide between the UK, Europe, and American members of our community, but I don't nearly have the level of attention and sophistication necessary to handle that right now.
El-P Posted February 6, 2012 Report Posted February 6, 2012 I got a kick out of this : I also want to broach the topic of cultural divide between the UK, Europe, and American members of our community. Indeed.
Matt D Posted February 6, 2012 Report Posted February 6, 2012 I'm perfectly happy sticking the French and Danish together when it comes to wrestling, but I'm not sticking the Brits and the French together. I am happy sticking the Scots and the Brits together, though. But that's just anecdotal from what I've seen between here and DVDVR. If we really need to split it more we can. But I think there are pretty clear trends to be found. Or maybe there aren't, but that's what I think is worth examining..
cm funk Posted February 7, 2012 Report Posted February 7, 2012 Has Naylor stopped posting and doing podcasts since he hooked up with FCW? I haven't read DVDVR in a long time. I always loved his appearances on podcasts for his stoned punk rock surfer dude who LOVES wrestling vibe.
