![]() ![]() They wildly succeeded on both parts.įinn just looks great right now. The immediate future involves a match with two objectives: Make Finn look strong and showcase Melo. ![]() #WWENXT Champion brings the fight to on #WWERaw! /eKGH5AK5Pv- WWE June 27, 2023īut that’s for down the line. The fact that Melo is reportedly close with Shawn Michaels and Shawn sees so much of himself in Melo only makes that amplifies my deja vu. I have nightmares about the last time WWE took a charismatic, athletic, cocky wrestler and basically took away everything that made him cool the minute they made him “the man” and turned him into their top good guy. Yes, he’s a babyface now but let’s not shave down those heel edges that made the NXT audience fall in love and basically force a face turn. And Melo never aspires to be like anyone but Melo. ![]() I have no problem with him showing Seth respect but he was too conciliatory. That all sounds good and dandy but that’s not Melo. He thanked Seth for the invitation, gave Seth all the props in the world, acknowledged the challenge Finn poses, and even the possible stupidity in taking on Finn the night before defending his championship against Bum Ass Baron Corbin. Most of it sounded like generic babyface stuff. Something about it felt off and if you’re one of the NXT faithful, maybe you felt it too. That inspired the worst GM in the world, Adam Pearce, and we got a match between the NXT champ and possibly the greatest NXT champ of all time, The Prince.īefore I talk about the match itself, a quick bone to pick with Melo’s backstage promo. The two fought and, once again, Melo saved the champ from taking a vicious blow from Finn. To Seth’s surprise, Finn showed up with chair in hand. I even chuckled at the old woman sitting next to Melo as the crowd gave him props.īut I digress. Him showing up on Raw and becoming a plot point for one of WWE’s big angles tickles me to no end. ![]() Let’s get this out the way for those who don’t know: Carmelo is my favorite wrestler at the moment. Seth called out Finn but not before acknowledging Carmelo Hayes sitting in the crowd. Welcome to #WWERaw, /2gwe8Jo7WU- WWE June 27, 2023 Clearly Finn chose Eddie’s path and this week, we saw more results from that choice. Peter Parker, on the other hand, is no stranger to bad days and dedicated his life to ensuing that no one else suffers that much loss in their lives. Eddie became Venom and the rest is history. Eddie Brock had a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day and blamed it all on Peter Parker. In fact, he says his bitterness comes from Seth, which is a lot to throw on one person’s shoulders. Everyone has bad days but as the best Batman stories remind us, it’s what one does after that bad day that determines who they are.įinn let his bad day define him for seven years and he blames it all on one man. That’s incredibly relatable and in any other story, that’s the babyface angle. Finn’s issue with Seth isn’t the fact that he hurt him during their match seven years ago his issue lies with Seth laughing in Finn’s face during his lowest moment. For starters, WWE gave us a recorded segment where Finn got the chance that alluded him a couple weeks back. #WWENXT Champion stepped up to on #WWERaw! /5Fa2uUIp3j- WWE June 27, 2023įinn Balor got his this week. ![]()
