It amazes me they can't find a spot for Ali. Dude is good on the mic, great in the ring, etc. That's a wasted talent right there. Meanwhile they'll keep pushing guys like Omos just because he's big.

Yeah, I don't get it. Omos is awful. Styles was wasted for a year because he had to team with him. There are several guys they could drop so they could give Ali time. Sounds like Vince doesn't think he has it though, which is dumb.

Not like they didn’t try. They made him the leader of that stable not to long ago. It was flat, no one cared.

gotta have on screen time for guys like mysterio son etc who are ****ing useless is why lol... as far as omos i am surprised styles legit didnt ask out for having to partner with him for so long. Now vince is putting him against 5 foot 2 no name guys and he is getting boo.... nobody cares about this dude lol

the worst thing you can do in todays wwe world is put a big guy against a little no named guy because the fans will boo it or not giving a **** about it every time... this isnt the 80s/90s

Yeah Rey Mysterio and his son are such a snooze fest. Dominick looks like a skinny 17 year old kid. Even if they push him to the moon he has 0 legitimacy. .

I also don’t think the Lucha style is meant for a long, lanky build. He tries to do his dads moves and it just looks awkward af.

They don’t have a spot for Elias, but they have spot for Dominic lol

[More-Than-Most]

doughdrop is awful
mysterio and his son is awful esp his son
edge and his wife is awful

omos no words needed

I don’t even like the man. She literally sounds like a man. If you close your eyes she sounds like an autistic Conner mcgreggor

I feel like they need to put Omos in the hurt business. If there is still a Hurt business.

I will tell you exactly why they can't find a spot for Ali: He is not at least 6'5" and weighs 275+ pounds. Vince for years has had a thing for the "Giant" wrestler.

It's about you go about it to be honest... Warlord in AEW is still being cheered for power bombing 5 foot 2 midgets

That wasn't his fault. He was the best part of Retribution, although that doesn't say much. That stable was doomed from the start. Ali is really good though.

Dominick's lineage helps him obviously. Vince probably thinks he can eventually make him Rey Mysterio 2.0. He's not his father in the ring but few people were as good as Rey in his prime. Dom isn't bad in the ring though.

Elias will suck without his old gimmick to be honest. He's garbage in the ring and I have no faith in WWE finding a new gimmick for him that will get over.

No doubt but its 2022. No one really cares about guys the size of the Great Khali or the Big Show anymore. It doesn't help that Omos is green as hell and gets no reactions from the crowd either.

I dunno why they would change Elias, he was naturally charismatic and could just be himself. The guitar thing was really his gimmick. They don’t need to make him preform anymore he can shut smash people with it as a weapon. But I don’t feel they need to change him.

Dom is meh. Looks like a power ranger lol

I want sammi zayne to be the leader. Voice of the voice less? The conspiracy against him storyline would have worked great with retribution who felt they were over looked and never given a chance. It woulda made perfect sense that Sami finally had enough and went and got him self a band of guys who also feel they’ve been held back.
And Ali could have been in it too. But Sami is way way way better on the mic and can lead a heel stable because he just gets on everyone’s nerves. But this time he woulda had back up.

I’m not even a big Sammi fan, I just think that fit woulda been perfect and gave retribution a chance of being around for a while.

Ali was really flat. Didn’t know how to stir the crowd up enough for them to care.

I actually liked Ali as a face, when he had that light thing on his hand and was getting pushed a bit before he got injured.

What "surprises" entrants are you looking forward to for the Rumble? Also should be about time we see the next HOF class. Who would you like to get that honor?

For me:
Women
Asuka
Sonya (who will eliminate Naomi and setup a WM match finally)
Alexa

Men
Elias
Lance Storm (would be nice for a pop from the veteran fans)

HOF
King Kong Bundy
Demolition
Mickie James
Headliner: Undertaker

Yeah but Warlow is like 6'2ish and not 7'4 like Omos. I don't see the potential with him. At least you saw something with Braun but with Omos, I see Great Khali, I see Giant Gonzales. He is simply the next unathlethic, unappealing big man who can't wrestle.

I don’t even like the man. She literally sounds like a man. If you close your eyes she sounds like an autistic Conner mcgreggor

I think you are comparing her voice to Connor simply because they'll both Irish. Yikes on the comps.

You got MVP running with Lashley and then seperate you have Alexander/Benjamin doing nothing but collecting a paycheck. There is no "Hurt Business."
