And Ive never gotten the shits from Chick Fil-A.

 

Happened to me once with a grilled chicken sandwich or something like that, and I was an hour away from a bathroom. Not a fun experience. Their food is generally pretty good though (for fast food), if a little too greasy for my increasingly sensitive old man palette.

 

Wait, how did we end up in this conversation? :lol:

 

Back on topic: Johnny Gargano rules.

It's not any weirder a name than Big E. Is he a really huge letter of the alphabet?

Somewhere in the crevices of Vinces mind resides a brief thought that if only the Haiti Kid was alive he could do Little E.

 

Oh, and I found out today that Chick Fil-A got rid of their cold chicken salad on wheat. Im outraged and will just settle for the classic.

Those few next NXT tapings are WILD.

It sounded a little more creatively ambitious than the usual solid and steady NXT TV. Gabe influence possibly? Now I'm fantasy booking real life but how funny would it be if the story turns out that HHH started his own ROH, Gabe gets hired and finds his 2004-2008 juice, and we have another great run like the old days. Unlikely I know, but I enjoy these real-life storylines like Akiyama trying to restore some glory to AJPW.

Looking at the upcoming tapings, what the fuck happened to Lars Sullivan? Hurt? Wellness? I don't remember hearing anything.

 

Sometimes this stuff just happens, seemingly. We don't really know where Velveteen Dream went to during the previous tapings. AOP were also completely absent a few tapings ago, though that may have been due to a call-up that was pushed back.

Ember is a wrestler whos kind of a mystic war goddess just like Stevie Nicks is a singer whos kind of a gypsy witch. I dig it.

She's far from the Bitchy or Ratchet type character that everyone except Bayley and Asuka has on the Roster so that's good. Vince would probably see her as a Sasha or Naomi type at first glance, They won't know how to use her just like with Bayley, she'll come in over but she'll be cooled off quick

Maybe because the same people who are praising him now were the same critics bashing him during all his pre-NXT work? Just a wild guess, of course. But yeah. Basically nobody had much love for Gargano before he took the trip to Full Sail.

 

So the NXT system of honing talent works?

Let's hope they can hone those bland indy geeks Adam Cole, Bobby Fish, and Kyle O'Reily. They're been boring charisma vacuums in NXT.

Gargano's a lot lot better in NXT than he was before NXT and it's all character work. He isn't really doing much different ring work wise but the difference is that he got himself over as a personality and not just dude having good to great matches. The DIY team were never supposed to be pushed hard but they got over above their push and unlike on the main roster they ran with it and it just turned into a steamroller of momentum. A lot of the credit really should go to The Revival because that was what took them from a team of Indy guys that everyone liked because they were good wrestlers to white hot babyfaces.
