The "curious" case of Triple K

[Cwilk02]

Motor city still seem so out of place for me lol. Their entrance is cool and all ... but meh

I don't mind diy, mainly because of romasso . But I want him to be a solo heel so his theme can come back

I'm biased towards Candice's lil fine ass so Imma just leave it there lol

Meh even with the Pyro (which is underserved btw) and that trash song which tries its damn hardest to get crowd participation they get no pop.

They should have been signed 10 years ago.
Vince would never sign some mid card jobbers from TNA. Only the best of the best

Beards usually hate the overly plastic, hard face women like Tiff which is why I personally find her popularity is a bit surprising but not entirely.


He is the face of the brand and was denied a dominant title regin. Lost the belt 2 times. Shawn has definitely treated his Black talent better overall but he still has his moments.

Wrestlers like Karrion Kross and Shayna Blazer get dominant runs? That’s why I never took NXT seriously. These wrestlers are treated like superstars down there, but when they come to the main roster, they’re treated like jobbers. (Which they are) then when someone mention how much they are a jobber people say things like “you need to watch their NXT matches”

A casual is not going to do that.

Anyone notice how Bianca was a side character in NXT under Big Nose and of course once she gets to the main roster she got the rocket strapped to her.


Idk why everyone thought Big Nose was cooking in NXT.

I agree with the first part of this but we can't do revisionist history on the second part. NXT black & gold was definitely cooking at one point. It was a Super Indy that was being booked like Jim Crockett Promotions.

I'll agree that he got way too invested in a lot of vanilla midgets but there were so many success stories from the rise of the 4 Horsewomen to even Keith Lee who he pushed as a big deal.

But it was still in many ways seen as non-canon and Hunter said back then in interviews that "main roster can't be booked the same way" so it's not completely shocking to me that he's been a different booker now

I’m sure NXT was cooking at a certain brief period. Just like when Big Nose was in charge of NXT, he has a habit of focusing on a select few wrestlers to get the rub and everyone else is a side character or an after thought.

Although what I like about NXT, it seems like the wrestlers actually have a gimmick vs just portraying their real life self.

Bruh I've been shouting that even back when Bianca was in NXT. I hate when people say Bianca is one of HHH's daughters, because he treats her like the stepchild he hates. I hated the Wargames build last year because Bianca did all the work assembling the team, then Rhea comes out at the end and it becomes team Rhea.

It's been so long now, I know Bianca never won the NXT title but what were the results of her high profile matches there?

Rhea in the past year or so since H took full control is that student in the group project who gets all the credit when the other members of the group did more work. Bianca assembled the whole team for Wargames, had matches leading up to it every week, and at the end Rhea got all the credit (it didn’t help that Bianca, Iyo, and Bayley are all better in the ring).

Rhea has more thirst trap pics in front of the mirror than she does matches these days.

She lost all of them. Her winning streak was against jobbers and the only big match she won was the #1 contender battle royal when she eliminated Iyo.

 

[Reality Check]

what will happen to said stars when they are called up and transition from being in HBK's hands to Triple H's?

It's insane that this is even a thing given for years it was the transition from Triple H's hands to Vince that fans hated.

Trick Williams has the potential to be as over as Jey uso on the main roster.

Yeah I said it

Fight me

Her never getting the NXT championship was always irritating to me. Triple H was rocking with Shayna Bazler over here, and I like Shayna, but there's levels.

As fukked up as it was it actually ended up being the best thing to happen to her. She got put on the main roster before Rhea and got to be mentored by Sasha and Bayley, which is why she's so far ahead in the ring than a lot of people's favorites. She would've never gotten to main event Mania if she was stuck in NXT like Rhea. That's exactly why Hunter cooled Bianca off so much, because he needed to find a way to have Rhea surpass Bianca.

I hate to say it because I believe in Triple H as a booker overall outside of this, but it's hard to not consider what you're saying.

I think Rhea is great. Refreshing, unique, powerful and alternatively beautiful. Bad ass wrestler. Success looks right on her.

There is also not a single thing I feel she does better than Bianca Belair, so Rhea being utilized the way she is while Bianca has been utilized the way she has is annoying as fukk.

It's like HHH is those fans who boo Bianca and prop up people like Becky and Iyo (both great in their own right to be clear) not because she isn't deserving, but because of that....other thing.

I will say that initially, I loved the idea of Bianca elevating the tag division and having big moments while tutoring Jade. It was a lot of fun, and her being a tag champ adds to her impeccable "resume" of accomplishments narratively, but I'm ready for something big at Mania.


You know what would be fire? If Bianca is about to win the Elimination Chamber next month, but then Jade returns while screaming "I KNOW IT WAS YOU, BIANCA" causing her to lose and setting up Mania match.

They gotta build Bianca fast though. Quickest way to do that is a quick and sudden heal turn that won't feel so quick and sudden because the pieces have been there all along.

Smdh why does Bianca need the heel turn and why does she have to face Jade when she still super green smdh. That match won't be what people hyping it up to be and Bianca doesn't need a heel turn but shyt I imagine at this point Bianca will be supersededed for Jade and Jade beats her at WM and she gets Bianca rub from there on out smdh.
