Texansfan713 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 (edited) People bashing the Houston crowd last night are both hilarious and stupid. I went last night and it was a pretty good crowd as far as crowd noise. It obviously didnt pick up on TV cause HHH and Steph probably stopped the piped crowd noise. People saying WWE should never go back to Houston makes me laugh as if Houston isnt a top 5 wrestling city/crowd.

Not even sure I'd put them as the Top of Texas, tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggie. Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Yeah, no way WWE is avoiding a major city like Houston for shows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me, coming from someone in a historic wrestling town (St. Louis) who people have talked junk on, what comes across on TV is never what its actually like in the arena, for better or worse I do hope the piped in crowed noise is going to be toned down, it will never fully go away, but it can be tolerable. And the quick cuts just need to stop, it makes the show unwatchable. I dont remember it being a Black & Gold NXT issue, so hopefully were done with that also 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HBK and Taker at WM25 was something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This new one is very random CAW-ish. I liked when he had no theme at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even for casuals, walkout music (ironically because of pro wrestling) is expected for any real or simulated combat sport. Boxing, UFC, hell... even competitive eaters have walkout music nowadays.

Yes but he was also in the "minor leagues," so to speak, and HHH let him play around with that idea for a while. Just don't think that happens on the main roster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NXT was still, despite better ratings, viewed as the developmental show. And him not having a theme didn't really happen for any kind of extended period.

I feel like the thoughts on Kross (not saying from you) showing up at Smackdown now come off as a little bitter. Frankly, his main roster spot was ruined by McMahon and I think we can all agree to that. Never seen anyone complain about his NXT run and now suddenly everyone on Twitter makes him seem like he never belonged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
