Eddie would get lost in the shuffle in the WWE right now. There's already a bunch of really good workers on the roster and FCW.

He's still young as fukk. No need to hurry him up when he still can learn a ton of stuff overseas and working with different guys in the indys.

Eddie has a natural in-ring charisma that a lot of these dudes don't though.

He's one of those guys who gets the crowd into his matches not just because of the wrestling, but the mannerisms, intensity etc...

But if I could choose 1 guy for the E to take out of the indies, it'd be two. The Brisco Bros.

How much Eddie Edwards have you seen besides big ROH shows? I'm curious because I've seen plenty of his matches fall flat because of him going too "indyrrific" and not letting the match flow naturally. It's the same kind of thing that happened to Hero in 08'-09'. Yeah, he had a lot of great/good matches but you could also tell he had ways to go before trying to work in a place like WWE. He still tries to do too damn much when he doesn't need to.

Eddie can't cut a promo for shyt though. Face or heel. Even guys like Danielson or Rollins, who you knew mic work wasn't their forte, showed they could hold their on in the right situation. In D-Bry's case, he could always cut a good "intense" promo and he was always amazing as a heel. In Rollins case, he had the look and the Jeff Hardy-like vibe. I've yet to see something like that from Eddie.

He's young as fukk though, and I wouldn't be shocked if in a couple of years he's one of the best overall performers in the business. But he's not there yet. And please keep him away from Davey :snoop:

I haven`t watched much indies honestly since Steen got the title in ROH. so you probably have more insight than me.

I will say this, I feel like he is actually good on the mic, but that's going from that time I watched ROH most.

I do agree on Davey though, Davey is so talented but I think his biggest issue is his ego and I do think that could rub off on Eddie. He's a great wrestler but he's arrogant as fukk and tried to redefine wrestling to his terms and sometimes kills matches with it.

Good to see him w/ the mask, they can change the name, but he has to keep the mask.

:leon: wait, :whoo: THAT'S WHAT EL GENERICO LOOKS LIKE WITHOUT THE MASK ON!? JESUS, if he didn't have that mask on he'd probably be a jobber right now.

Between Generico and Del Rio, they about the have the Face game sewed up.

The mexican chants bout to be off da chayne, mayne! "Ole'!!!"

*wonders how much of Generico's sizable moves arsenal are tehy about to trim away*

*wonders, if the Brainbustahhhhhhhh will survive the transition, and if Im ready to hear Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler squealing the shyt at the top of their lungs*

*wonders how JBL will feel about a white mexican*
