THAT’S LIKE DOUBLE OF FULL TIME STEVE AUSTIN. Primo's only had one match since leaving WWE, WWC's 49th Anniversary show, this year in August. Lost a World Title three way match And yes that is Carlos Colon's promotion lol

Speaking of the 2012 Tyler Reks run, I assume you won't watch NXT from this year, but just in case you do, Madlibs, this is what you have in store for you
Yes, this is how William Regal in NXT began lmfao

It's actually kind of crazy, and we can't say Heath didn't carve out a career for himself off of stuff he just grinded at to get over each time, he just made shit work Made it work so well he and Rhyno essentially have a career in Impact in 2023 lol

He probably won't, but stranger things have happened.

I know that's a crazy low bar but at least Marella could actually work when asked and had some good runs lmfao

Santino was all over shows at one point. In costumes.

Santino was all over shows at one point. In costumes. I will agree with you that stuff like "Santina" was f***ing awful television, let alone your first Mania Women's Battle Royal winner, like... I can't believe they thought that was ok, none of it was funny it was... woof. I think Santino had some really, really good moments in his run, the moments where he almost won the Rumble and versus Bryan in the Chamber are standout to me, he really could pull off moments that got the crowd into it. He was overbooked, overexposed, and this was definitely that era with the Cobra Sleeve and all. At least we're well past Santina in this re-watch, that was 2009, but this is when he has that Chamber Moment with Bryan, if Madlibs is able to watch that, it is some top notch stuff, I remember when it happened and people really bit on it.

I'm still just continually floored that the Santino Marella character is still getting TV time in 2023.
Also he's a transphobe so like f*** him.

I was gonna say "Where is he still getting screen time?" and remembered he just debuted in Impact as the Director of Authority, and apparently has total copyright ownership over the name "Santino Marella" Had no clue he said dumb shit like that though

That heel turn of Santino’s in 2007 helped get us through some rough f***ing waters right after the Benoit stuff, and the Glamarella pairing up until the face turn was pretty great too. Dude banked a good 18 months of goodwill from that. Sure, a lot of the actual angles in his face run after that was a bit lame, but he generally served his niche being the clown at the circus better than most ever did, and there’s nothing with that.

That would make them more successful than the nwo in the aforementioned world title ratio for a stable. It’d make them more successful than nearly all stables, what with a 100% completion rate and all that. And unlike Evolution, they didn’t start the damn stable from second base.
