Riot 409: Season 11 Opener

[Jacob Trance]

I love everyone trying to trigger one another with half hearted insults and bravado instead of reviewing the show.

 

Kudos to Tibbers for the good review. It was a helluva match indeed and hopefully one day we'll do it again. Now to wait and see who wins the tournament, my pick is KD. Can I beat him? Maybe, I don't know. I'll need to step it up.

 

Everyone showed up and done what they needed to do. Let downs were smythe, look forward to more reviews.

I'm a little iffy on the commentary so far but I get that it's still new so I won't go too much into detail on it but I will say it's a nice touch. I don't know who is who yet off of voices so I will just get into what I've seen so far.

 

I really enjoyed the way the show opened. Hero coming out and giving the explanation of losing the TV deal and being in smaller venues was gold. It was very well done and nicely put together. Makes me feel like quality of matches will change due to “trying to get back to MSG status.” Really well done and nice way to start with announcing the world title match out of nowhere. I liked how Trance came out and pointed the finger immediately and then reminded everyone who the champ was. He comes off as cocky but menacing and calculating. Seems like the type of guy who would enjoy removing someones tooth with a spoon.

 

The match itself was great too. I enjoyed the back and forth story. I get the feeling they have faced each other in the past. I loved the ending as well. Think it said a lot. Showed the champion is still dominate but didn’t bury Aries in the process. Good return, good match and good way to kick off the show.

Really excited about the World Title Tournment as a lot of stories can come out of that.

 

I really liked the spoken RP. I know from experience those aren’t as easy as it appears and hats off for going with it. Nice added touch and I look forward to hearing more of them.

 

I thought the match fit well with the promo. Seems like 7 years of frustration was taken out lol. Can you say top rope moonsault? Very brutal match, very physical and fun to watch. It’s nice to see a smaller guy play keep way and catch in a match. Very well done match though it was quite decisive. Did a lot for character build which to me is very important.

 

Nothing says “I’m here” like randomly super kicking a guy. Man that was funny. Felt bad for that guy. He’s just doing his job, investigating suspicious characters and then he got kicked in the face. Poor guy.

 

The whole Cut-Throat thing confused me. At first I thought it was a metaphor. Like Thumb wrestling stood for something else but as I kept reading, I realized this truly was about thumb wrestling. I’m pretty confused on it and I’m sure I would have to do some research to figure out the character a little better. I’m not sure if it was a joking or creepy thing but from the entrance, I thought he would be more creepy than funny. We’ll see what happens.

 

Nathan Carter is quite entertaining. The gimmick is quite different from your typical ladies man and I like it. Very entertaining promo that I could have read for a while. It’s one of those “I can’t believe he’s actually saying this” kind of promos. I also loved how the gimmick carried over into the match. Great choice of moves lol. Really liking the character and I liked the match. I would say there should have been more pin attempts versus just standing there but other than that, good showing. Excited to see where Carter goes.

 

Not sure what’s going on with Pacifica but I get the feeling dude has been in max chill mode but has gotten bored with the layed back lifestyle and is excited to return but doesn’t wanna show it too much. We shall see what happens and hopefully I get to learn more about the veterans here.

 

Ryu also confused me. I’m not sure what these backstage security did to piss off the roster but dude was relentless. It’s bad when you a pummeling someone. It’s worse when you talking to him while doing it.

 

About to read the Mugen segment and give my feedback on the rest of the show once I’m done since I’m at work and our server is down but our internet work.

KD isn't allowed or i should say required to write RP's anymore. So he does these, and they have been solid GOLD for the last year.

That explains a lot. Still a good promo tho

[Bloom]

Crossbones is essentially a Pirate, but a lunatic. So he has promos that involve feats of granduer. Like touching his belly button and chewing gum at the same time, or Punching a tornado in the face.

Now that I'm back from football and have the use of a keyboard I can now comment.

 

 

 

 

When someone makes constructive criticism read it, take it on board, or discard it. If you're meant to be one of these "don't give a shit what people say" types, then don't decide to randomly flame up on something someone said. Then don't, for no reason, dive into a thread and start shitting on someone for no reason other than to get a reaction.

 

It's absolutely fucking juvenile. Stop it. It makes us look like a bunch of mean girls and none of you are as attractive or as interesting as pre-cocaine Linsday Lohan.

 

 

Cut the pointless and unnecessary cheap shots to yourself. There's no point to put a KD style beating on someone's dick just to try and get a reaction and create discussion.

 

 

On that note, I'll apologise to Smythe for my comments. I felt let down by everything you done this week, especially with the "I will be main eventing in two weeks" rant.

 

 

 

 

Case is closed.

[Pugh]

Smythe was given bad information in the first instance, but his match was a dumb move.

 

The fact of the matter is this kids. I'm making sure ocw runs like a business this year. If you miss a deadline without a reason, you're shit canned. If you start acting dumb, shit canned.

 

We're not carrying passengers this year folks. Consider this your one and only warning. Thanks.

D.Y Nasty has made me want to remove someone's tooth with a spoon, but I fear rushTV would not approve of this...

 

 

I'm going to reiterate though... I think this is KD's year... But Buffness waits in the wings with that FI.

Wouldn't be surprised if KD won and then sean cashes in and takes the title right after he gets it, would be funny.

 

I will be doing an actual review when I get home and all the matches work for me, I think it's the business network.

[Bloom]

Good eye not many people remember Seanys got the F.I. Hell he coulda cashed in during the opener (if he knew :P) New season anything can happen. But you know what WILL HAPPEN?

 

Mugen getting a fat lip for bad mouthing me.
