Is Black Reign Improving?

[Beast Of Wrestling]

Well...The title says it all. You think he has improved since his first few weeks in TNA?

 

[JHar888]

Sure. He's a good charcyer, I'm a fan, but he's silly. Not the best wrestler. BTW, what title are you talking about?

 

[Beast Of Wrestling]

^^The title of the thread.

His gimmick in TNA is 10X better than the shit gimmick WWE made his use...

 

[phantomgerald]

Better yes he is getting better. But I think he's still an old fart who doesn't belong in TNA. His character is dark and makes him more serious. He's not a good wrestler yet though and will never be.

 

[Beast Of Wrestling]

^^Well he's getting far more fame then he ever would in WWE...

 

[phantomgerald]

^^^ It's not about the fame, it's that he doesn't belong in such a large company at this age. He should probably be doing independent shows around the country, not have a full time job

No offense, but are crazy??

Black reign is probably the worst gimmick in over 10+ years, and it gets worse and worse. A rat as his friend? A spike as his weapon? Im sorry but that stuff doesnt belong in TNA, and from what i hear about 99% of the fans dont like black reign. Not to mentino black rain is just a goldust rip off.

 

[Beast Of Wrestling]

I probably am crazy.....
But I'm not saying he's good.
My point is...
Has he improved since he joined TNA?

 

[Montana]

He's only had a couple matches. I mean, he hasnt been in tna long enough to improve, (for a vetern) I dont know, i guess the thought of the gimmick, isnt that bad, BUT They make him look so ridiculous, it kills all creditabilty. If Judas didnt get injuried, Black Reign probably wouldnt even be on Impact, or if he was he'd be fighting shark boy. Maybe if they tweaked his attire a bit, i could see him being a valueable part of the roster. I think the best is yet to come. I like the concept of the split personalities, and rhodes is perfect for the role.

 

[AJ styles fan01]

ye the conecept is pretty good but I have to agree I think they should get rid of that rat thing its just plain weird lol

 

[Superfluous Idealist]

I would say he has improved since joining TNA. My only problem is the whole gimmick and the stupid makeup and attire. Rhodes has always been over the top but if he toned it down and just was himself with a psycho split personality without all the get up he would be a lot better. The whole rat thing isn't too well over either.

I was just Wrestlemania 14 again and I have to admit he should quit the big wrestling federations and work independent companies. But he has improved none the less since joining TNA.

 

[ROHisWrestling]

Not at all, Dustin Rhodes is just an old man who should be retired or working in the indies. His gimmick is terrible and he has no heat because of his la parka'ish attire that doesnt even fit his fat ass body and his terrible in ring work. TNA NEEDS to release him as soon as possible so other more deserving wrestlers can get the TV time that he is getting

 

[Great One]

He's only 38... that's not old. I personally don't really see anything much wrong with the character. It was a decent attempt to develop an original gimmick of some sort, the problem is the overloaded roster and the fact that Judas Mesias is that much better.

 

[xtremebadass]

just for the record, Black Reign makes me want to throw up, I swear if he keeps kissing that rat and looking like he slept in the closet I am going to flip the hell out

 

[ROHisWrestling]

^ LOL, that about sums up what I felt when I saw the Black Reign kissing the rat angle a few weeks ago on iMPACT!
