General Chit-Chat Thread: A New Beginning

Darby still needs some stories with guys where he can finally wrestle on the same level and not be a punching bag for 80% of the match times. ...and I know that's basically his style and what's polarizing about him, but still.

for me he would also kind of need to beat a former champion or two in a semi convincing manner?

 

[Comrade Khan]

Like he wins a lot but he also has been kept at an arms lenght from the main event? maybe? I guess I should look at cagematch before i start talking shit though

 

[Samoa Looch]

That is for sure enough for a upper card champ and baby face. But is it enough to be a World Champion in this company full of killers up top and a pretty serious lineage

For Darby? Right now, the only thing I could accept is him taking the title off Mox, but then losing it relatively quickly again. The story and Darby himself, at the moment, is great for that pursuit angle, not for an actual big run.

See I thought that too but with Christian failing his cash in - that kind of also told me Darby ain't winning this shit

tbf, they gave him the win over Will in the Continental Classic

 

[Comrade Khan]

and like I know ppl love Christian but outside a mega fuckery angle - a hell cashing in on a heel was like...never gonna be a thing? It was great fantasy booking and I wanted it too though lol

 

[Samoa Looch]

Cagematch says Darby beat Hangman in July

 

[Comrade Khan]

fair enough, though Will was going through his doubt phase. im guessing hangman was also going through some shit and it wasnt clean

I knew they'd do it. I told ya about my weird fantasy booking idea and it almost happened. The best thing about the Main Event was that finish with Christian still trying to pin Cope while in the Bulldog Choke btw... that was actually pretty neat.

 

[Comrade Khan]

but still fair

yeah that was funny

 

[Samoa Looch]

I just wish they had Christian do it earlier. I really wanted that pop of Cope and Christian, just for a minute or so, turn to Mox to tag team him for a while.

 

[Comrade Khan]

hopefully they become a two dad patriarchy soon

 

[Samoa Looch]

yeah that was funny

Funny? Well, maybe, I actually think it was a great finish idea. The only really good thing the Mainer had going for it for me.
