Has any other big named talent flopped harder than Aries?

Aries has been solid on the mic and can go in the ring. I doubt WWE envisioned his ceiling being "WrestleMania headliner" when they signed him to a contract at 38 years old and being as undersized as he is. He's doing exactly what he's supposed to do.

Pretty much this. It's funny when you think about it honestly as far as people claiming "failure" goes

I don't watch nxt every week. But it's he realy a big flop of he's in the second biggest match tonight? I saw the bit with him and Nakamura in the ring together and the crowd seemed to like him. Until Nakamura came out haha

I honestly don't get the disconnect either

Dude is a really good technical wrestler.

Can brawl with the best of them

Has an ill and unique submission finisher.

Can fluidly high fly as well as about anyone and is safe in the ring

Is VERY strong for his size as he can lift up and brain buster anyone on the E roster sans Big Show (dude did it to fat ass Bubba Ray , Samoa Joe, and big dude in The Club who they try to bill at 6'9 or so) without struggling.

He has charisma and he can play a face or heel equally well, also can cut some really good promos.

Yes, they fukking up with him

Didn't someone say that when Aries debuted it was the last taping of the night? Crowd was probably exhausted, so bad timing add on top of that not having much of a storyline until now. Besides he's better off as a heel.

I think they're doing it right, he started out as a cocky tweener in his feud with Baron.

Corbin actually showed out for his promos, which kinda undermined AA, but he's full heel against Naka with a tag dispute build and not much else.

Not necessarily incompetent booking, but Aries can go against Shinsuke, and we will see that tonight. Watch.
