*Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

BARNES OUT
One of the most overrated guys in all of wrestling imo.

Just do not see what the appeal is with him.
He's a very good wrestler and would be a great main event babyface. His gimmick is ass, and he doesn't work it well. He laughs like an idiot and looks like a teenager from 2003. It doesn't even make sense. Why does he like knives? Why does liking knives mean he's a bad guy? Why is he cowardly? It's awful, IMO.

I've not seen enough of him to really comment extensively on his wrasslin' ability. So I can give him a pass on that, though on the occasions I have seen he did not strike me as anything remarkable. Especially in relation to his peers.

But yeah, re: the gimmick etc, I agree entirely. I look at this bloke and just think "nah". Don't buy it at all.

I really hate it (not that it happens often these days I guess), when attempts are made to incorporate weapons that would cause wounding/lethal injury etc. are incorporated into wrestling. It's just dumb, because you know they are never going to be properly used and their involvement always comes across as hokey and fake as ****. Switchblade is a good example of this I guess, but it applies also to HHH with the sledgehammer etc. as well.

I know Jay White is a kiwi, a great wrestler and in bullet club amd everything. But man i just cant give a **** about him.

Really feels like Ospreay should be in his spot.

Yeah, I reckon Ospreay should be getting the mega push. NJPW are desperate for a big foreigner and Ospreay>White/ZSJ>Juice
