It's a work. I bet he makes an appearance at the Royal Rumble.

Never cared for him. Honestly, think he's trash, especially when he tries to be a heel announcer like Jesse/Bobby the Brain. He tries too hard and it comes off lame. It was telling when Jesse The Body showed up at Saturday Night's Main Event a few weeks ago and picked up where he left off 30 years ago.
 
The crowd barking in between lines as Oba Femi speaks is kind of cool....but it might get old like Stone Cold's "what chant"....
 
Can someone whose a fan of Penta kindly point me in the direction of one of his classic matches?

I never heard of dude before Monday. I could see his style and moveset being really cool. I also thought dude look kinda old and definitely a step slower than someone in their prime.
 
Also can we please tell me whether or not we're doing pile drivers?!?! One show says the move is banned and Cody's neck is fucked after taking a single one.

Gable sold the hell outta one and got back up. And Cole named it so I'm guessing that just part of his well known moves.

I had just finished watching the mcmahon documentary and they said that they had taken out the chair shots when they became public...then i turn on the street fight last night..... :lol:

Any penta match in lucha underground(even the one vs iyo sky lol) especially matches against his brother and rey mysterio, hell even the match against old ass vampiro is pretty compelling













I hate the young bucks but they do have a good cage match against the lucha bros you may enjoy of you can stomach the buckaroos. Also death triangle matches with pac are pretty good

Thanks :cheers:
I'm with most on the Young Bucks.
That's not wrestling. It's fancy gymnastics.

It still requires crazy athleticism, so propz to them. But their matches feel like watching a ballet dance.

That match with Pentagon Dark vs the Black Lotus Triad....still one of my favorites, I'm in the process of pulling all 4 seasons right now. Man I miss Lucha Underground.

Didn't he do this before with Booker like 5 years ago? The minute nobody is paying attention to him he feels the need to go on Social Media to make himself relevant.

Much like with Stone cold, I think it works fine when he's talking. The problem with "What?" was the crowds bit into it too hard, an d then it was every single line of every single promo.

It's sorta like the massive booing thing. Works in small doses, and definitely worked as a one or two time thing to vilify New Day. But when you're genuinely expressing disgust, then all you are doing is dragging out the segment of someone you don't like.

But back to topic, I actually liked Oba's first post-win appearance. He seemed like he really had it together, and I bought the heat between him and the Don. But they are going to make me sit through a program with Eddy Thorpe, and I'm not sure that I'll ever forgive them for that.

And I hate to beat this dead horse, but if someone doesn't give Ava an acting lesson or a note on having an actual character, at least have the decency to not spam her throughout the episode. She should not be doing more on camera work. I swear, the manager's office is the worst part of NXT right now.
