Eddie Edwards Goober of The Year?

[Captain Stud Muffin (BLM)]

This man has had such a shit year it stopped being funny a long time ago

While I was never a fan of him being TNA World Champ and beating Lashley, there was no doubt he was probably their best wrestler and his in ring work made up for the bland personality

They “solve” this problem by trying to make him discount Tommy Breaker due to a botch with Sami Callihan, briefly turn him heel, and then turn him into broke Ambrose where he’s supposed to make wacky faces and just scream and shout because that’s what a crazy person does

The gimmick is shit and the people he’s feuding with come out looking better than he does with Sami (getting heat from a stupid accident) and Moose (a heel with good personality)

He got a push by almost losing his f***ing eye. There’s no bigger loltna moment than that.

Eddie Edwards only drew a rating because he got hit in the face full force with a f***ing bat. They couldn’t maintain that momentum.

Tommy Dreamer is fifty years old. Raven retired like ten years ago. ECW went bankrupt in 2001 time to move the f*** on.

he reminds me of Josh. They probably have the same biological father

How would you like to visit the batting cages with Eddie Edwards?

Is Eddie Edwards the goober of the year? He has tough competition in Enzo and Cass, along with Alex Riley and the eternal loser Dolph Ziggler.


Eddie is just a mediocre indy guy that was never taught to show emotion. He’s a failed experiment from the Low Ki era type of template. He was a dojo guy from NOAH and other than Hideo Itami nobody from there really accomplished much, maybe Marufuji and Morishima but that’s it, the others suffer a miserable career. Eddie just focused on submissions and strikes and never selling. The only time he showed emotion was when he got hit in the face by accident.

I think it depends on if you count a steeper fall or stupider material as being worse, because the main competition I see would be Johnny Gargano. Most over and likable babyface, starts the year losing a five star match because he "hasn't finished his redemption arc yet", beats Ciampa in another five star match, and then proceeds to lose everything else at every turn and have to undergo a new redemption arc because the last one didn't take. Audience chants "Johnny Failure" at him. Turns bad guy and then still fails to be good enough to win. In 2018, the year of "Evil will always win because good is dumb", Johnny Gargano still can't buy a win. That's pretty f***ing goober.

His attack on moose this past week was extremely weak for a crazy guy...

if he had more visibility, maybe. but tis is the year of Enzo's garbage rap album and James Ellsworth's underage dick-pic misadventure.

In kayfabe, it's hard to argue against Eddie. The dude is a babyface that threatened to put the partners of Jake and Dave Christ in intensive care, told Impact Management and Alisha Edwards that he was literally going to murder Sami Callihan, and when Tommy Dreamer stopped him from going through with it, Eddie screamed at Dreamer for being selfish, because killing Sami was something he needed. And the dude is still a babyface.

A dude once said that you should never include murder and attempted murder in a storyline. His name was Jake Roberts, widely regarded as the greatest storyteller and master of ring psychology this artform has ever known.

Someone should have told Impact that this year.
