5 Most Insane Things Happening In Wrestling Right Now (Oct 13)
1. Neville :(
Reports circulated this week that Neville, the phenomenally talented and still improving Cruiserweight division Ace, has handed in his notice. Frustrated at the focus on Enzo Amore and the acknowledgement that the division he built is a bit sh*t - a state for which Neville is not at fault, at all - the Geordie unleashed the inner radgie native to the north east of England, waalked oot, and went yem.
This 205 Live business needs to cease trading. Nobody cares. People would rather watch cr*ppy old WCW pay-per-views than the supposed ‘Most Exciting Hour On Television’. The in-ring action is largely good, I’m pretending to believe, because like most everybody else I stopped watching after Alicia Fox wouldn’t shut the f*ck up for weeks and weeks on end. There is nothing really separating the likes of Cedric Alexander from a Finn Bálor or a Sami Zayn in terms of in-ring work. In the post-Wellness Policy age, cruiserweights are the norm. The difference is that we’ve been given reasons to care about Finn Bálor and Sami Zayn, while Cedric Alexander is just the guy Alicia Fox was dating when she wouldn’t shut the f*ck up for weeks and weeks on end.
205 Live isn’t just dull. It isn’t just pointless. It is destructive. We didn’t get AJ Styles in the ring for weeks because of it, and now we won’t get Neville in a WWE ring at all because of it.
I’d suggest a mass walkout protest, but…
