Are you telling me that you’re not impressed with Shannon the Dude!?

Well, at least they have a solid Heavyweight champion in...
*squints*
...wait...

I'm 78% certain the Television champ is video game CGI. Who even is that? He doesn't look like anyone I'm seeing looking down the roster.

[OVO 40 hunched over like he 80]

This is not a good move, Al Snow was part of the failed past regime and he also destroyed the wwe’s relationship with ovw. Impact is gaining nothing with this, they’re in fact losing.

I'm certain it's David 3 without his trademark goatee.

On the other hand, we may finally get that f***ing scaffold match

I think I'm going to stick with David Eye-Eye-Eye.

I need to see some Dapper Dan ASAP.

You can see him in two weeks.

This was wonderful.

If Nzo comes back he could team with Zo. Call the team Nzo n Zo.

Clash of the Bluegrass was pretty good. Don Callis was ribbing Josh because he lives in Columbus. Sami Callihan and OVE were fantastic. Got the heat well.

[OVO 40 hunched over like he 80]

I’m not a big historian or fan of ovw, but Danny Davis and Jim Cornette trained and produced people who drew millions, now under Al Snow we have Cali and David Eye Eye Eye.

That’s my guess of where it comes from. Sold out show and good feelings. And I doubt they’re really paying them much, if anything. It’ll probably lead to OVW guys being brought in more often as job guys and more partnered shows together.

If it comes from thinking they truly need a developmental or from thinking al snow is gonna be generating the next top talent, you’re probably mistaken.

they should've did this with Chikara instead

Don't you put that evil on them

[ayumidah]

Haha and here I was just looking at Crimson's page yesterday. I guess this is all my fault

I think Big D (...) needs help, he seems to be being absorbed into his bio pic

[jagilki]

Oh. OVW is the developmental fed in this deal?

[Talent Name]

Most of these sound like dollar store action figure names

I didn't believe it was necessary the first time they did it, but the landscape has changed. Impact will probably need a pipeline of fresh places as other companies throw money around they can't compete with. Scott D'Amore and Lance storm's trainees would be a better bet for future stars though, but OVW run more shows they cam film matches to fill out Impact with.

I think people overstate how great a trainer Danny Davis was, he's been there for most of OVW's life and they didn't exactly churn out stars for most of that time, or have we forgotten the endless CAW parade of guys OVW produced while under the WWE umbrella who only knew how to work one style of match? They were better than DSW and FCW but let's not wear rose tinted glasses and pretend every guy was a Cena or Lesnar.

[KAMALARAMBO: BOOMSHAKALAKA!!!]

Why?

[Fauxnaki]

I got faith in Zo and the mexicutioner

Randy Orton, Batista, Shelton Benjamin, Ziggler, Lashley just to name a few. Davis is the best trainer ever.

It wasn’t Davis fault that the wwe chose garbage like Snitsky and Heidenreich.

So the big initial class, top notch amateur wrestlers and the above average Dolph Ziggler.

OVW operated for years outside of the WWE umbrella, picking who to train with Davis there overseeing everything and it wasn't exactly a star factory. I know wrestling schools churn out a lot of guys who go nowhere, but lets not pretend Davis produced 20 odd years of gold just to dump on Snow.

...it wasn’t a star factory? Then dsw and fcw truly were, boy Sheamus and Alberto sure captured the imagination of the people.

I missed the part where I said either of those developmental promotions were good. All the WWE developmental feds until recently had an awful success rate when it comes to guys trained from scratch, which neither Alberto nor Sheamud were.

You're acting like that big initial class was the norm for OVW under Davis as a trainer just to dump on Al Snow, when it just wasn't. Snow is an arse, but I don't see much point in pretending to see greatness elsewhere just to put him down.
