If you watched Dynamite last week you saw the sign, even the camera man knows what's up so my question to all of you is how would you fix it.

TK gives you the reigns and says he wants a women's division that could headline next year's All Out.

You can sign any free agents, use ROH talent, book anymatch or angle you want, but you have to have a great division in one years time.

(I'll post my own thoughts later today)

Sure, that works, my logic was that I'd want the faces to have all the gold except the RoH title, so I'd rather add her in than take it off her.

The idea isn't to start this tomorrow or anything so the current feuds were not something i took into account too much.

I wouldn't add Nyla though, she hasn't redeemed herself at all so far, she's literally just been less prominent. If she needs to join the faces she needs to show character development first.

Could be a nice angle for her, to go babyface once she realises that she's becoming a laughing stock as the gatekeeper of the division and can't seem to win the big one since her title reign, aligning with the good guys and having a match with Shafir to close off their partnership. The usual "heel turns on partner because they're going soft" routine but done well. I do believe they could pull off a nice short-ish angle to round off the numbers to 5v5 in the hypothetical blood and guts.

Also, I just found out a spoiler for Dynamite 200: >!Shida won her match against Storm so that's a step in the right direction, now let her be dominant and not incapable of basic rational decisions.!<

Love the ideas. Do you mind editing your original post, though? The bullet point starting with "Have someone be the face of a group and stick to it," didn't render properly (on Kbin, at least) and it's stretched the thread out east-west, making it hard to read. A quick formatting should fix that.

And if you can swap out the 'R' word for something else that'd be cool too. The last thing I want to do is delete your comments. They're mostly solid, just a few tweaks and we're good.

I have genuinely no idea how to format this differently, but I'll have a look, it looks fine on lemmy.world.

As for the language, could the guidelines be posted in the sidebar section, so there would be no misunderstandings about the expected standards?

I'm ESL and I have frankly no idea what the mod team finds objectionable but I'm pretty sure the standards are tighter than I'm used to given this request.

No problem with abiding by them, when in Rome and all that, but I'd like them to be explicit.

Also for the life of me I can't find the point where I used "retarded", is that what I'm supposed to be looking for?

(Feel free to remove this comment once you reply if this is indeed the offending word.)

ETA: does the formatting look correct now?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

You fucking nailed it. Formatting's perfect. Thanks a lot.

And as for words, swearing (fuck, shit, etc.) is cool but we try to keep away from 'slurs.' Basically, a word that could be hurtful to a minority. In this case, disabled people. A preferred word might be "stupid" because the majority of people are definitely stupid lol

And it's the last word of the comment I replied to originally. And I'll speak to the other mods about clearing up those rules.

Oh lol, it was behind the spoiler tag that's why I didn't see it.

Fixed, and thanks for the clarification.

I think Nyla has shown she can be amazing if they let her. She would be very useful in helping talent come out of their shells and turn their knobs up to 11. Someone like Skye needs to be partnered with someone who can show them how to be a bigger than life version of themselves and I feel Nyla is the perfect person for that.

[–] MolochAlter 2 points 1 year ago

Oh definitely, I'm just talking from a storyline perspective. Nyla is great, she just needs to have an actual transition to face before she becomes one, unlike Britt.
