Because it's yet another "swerve for the sake of a swerve".Mainly played out over social media. Not quite sure what it was meant to achieve? make us think lionheart or lightning are dastardly heels? we are aware already. Make Girvan sympathetic? M'eh, as stated above no one even knows if he is heel or face. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Pretty much everyone knows Girvan is a face though. So that argument is bullshit. Plus, the job was to make Lionheart more of a p***k. Which is always the plan. Because that's his whole schtick. Problem with it was that Girvan is quite bland, so nobody actually wanted him to win the belt. That was the big flaw in the plan. The idea itself wasn't bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Not sure what the Girvan face/heel confusion is? Since he was rejected by Red for the Label he's been a pretty standard face since...in terms of promos, teaming with faces etc. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Just now, cb_diamond said: It's a pretty big fucking flaw though isn't it? Aye, but it's not exactly a dumb idea or shite booking. They just overestimated Lewis Girvan a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Putting Lewis Girvan in a prominent position is shite booking I suppose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poet of the Macabre Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 They're putting Ricochet against Lewis fucking Girvan? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snakebite Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Looking forward to the Hydro, despite not having been to a show for ages. I'm not really following it much just now but I am enjoying the build up that seems to be going on with Dallas' mob falling apart and the BL being cohesive. Looking forward to seeing the Dudleys and Kurt Angle in the flesh as well even if I've seen some wee geeky smarks on twitter and forums sneering at it. Lewis Girvan is baws though, more personality in a tin of emulsion. He needs to chop that mingin tash as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it's announcing the Hydro so far in advance but I almost got the impression this year that it didn't matter if I missed a show as the Hydro event will trump it all and close out all the storylines anyway. I went to the Square Go, Barramania and a show in London because I was passing through but that's it. From December 2014 to the SECC show in November 2015 I must've been to 10-12 shows - it felt like can't miss stuff at that time. 2016 for me they've been treading water for the Hydro event. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snakebite Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I see Davey is also a heel now. Tbf I don't know what the outcome of it has been so won't slaughter it, but my initial reaction is wit?! I can see some changes to the face/heel group after F&L. I'd like to see Kid Fite get a run as a face, but not sure that'll happen given Sha has just been turned, but down the line I'd like to see it. I think we could see someone play the Kurt Angle mole type figure from within the BL who will turn during the match and give Team Dallas the win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booker_d Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Quite looking forward to Fear and Loathing but like others I haven't been watching as much the last few months. Is Wolfgang and Trent Seven really going to be the main event? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 I still think Coffey/Angle main events. It's either that or the 8 man. It's certainly NOT going to be Seven/Wolfgang. I'd guess it's Angle/Coffey though to send folk home happy. I can see the heels winning the other matches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 It'll surely be the 8 man, Like a Prayer blasting out as people leave. Angle will go on at the end of the first half and put the company over on the mic post match. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb_diamond Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 So, the night before the hydro we get the awesome looking ricochet vs bt Gunn vs Kenny Williams... then at their biggest show ever it's still ricochet vs Girvan. Jesus wept. Whoever is booking just now needs to have a word with themselves! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 See Trent Seven and Viper were two of 30 wrestlers from around Europe who were invited to try out for WWE on Monday and Tuesday. Didn't recognise anyone else from the pictures on their website. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) Seen some snaps of Pete Dunne and Tyler Bate (other half of Moustache Mountain) too, hopefully see some familiar names in future performance centre intakes Edited November 9, 2016 by Christophe -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Finn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
