I think that, with the Bucks and Omega, you've got three guys who have tried to make it in WWE and been shafted in some way. They've got
a good thing going (I'm sure they make good coin in New Japan) and are in a strong position given the recent defections. They are consistently
on the top shows. Now, if they went to the WWE, they'd probably be looking at developmental for who knows how long (Devitt still there, it took
Zayn years to get out) and they would likely being making much less than they do now until they finally get called up. I don't blame them for
staying and making sure they are finacially positioned to take care of their families. The recent departures from NJPW to WWE have all been guys that
are probably darn near set for life and can take the chance.

As much as I enjoy the Young Bucks (I've been watching the ROH TV fairly regularly lately, can you tell?), I think they're entirely WAY
too spot-monkey-flippy-floppy to last in the WWEverse. I mean, "we" make fun of the Ascension for not being big 'n' bad 'n'
mean enough, and the Bucks are two "scrawny" guys who pretty-much no-sell everything that happens as soon as it happens, then pop up for
SUUUUPAAAAHHHHKICKS every 12 seconds. Amazing gymnastic athletes who go balls-to-the-walls, yes. Capable of telling a "wwe style wrestling story",
I dunno. I'm only basing this on limited & recent exposure to them, however, so I could very possibly be smoking the wacky grass on this one.
tl;dr version: Omega can sell like The Rock (for better and sometimes worse, The Rock could sell the shit out of moves). The Bucks don't seem
to be able to sell water to a thirsty man.

The Briscoes could probably fit in a lot better, and probably even end up dominating, which makes it even more unfortunate that they're a pair
of genuine backwoods white trash lunatics that the WWE would be insane to hire.
You are a bastard. A daughter-fucking wildling bastard.

The Briscoes are old school spectacle with the redneck thrown in. Can you imagine those guys in the territory days? They would have bounced from
territory to territory raising hell wherever they went.
They should have a place in the WWE because tag team wrestling should have a place, but the E doesn't get that quite yet (despite New Day being
more over than 99% of their roster).

With a race war now all but imminent a year-long Briscoes vs New Day feud would make some major fucking money for WWE. Get on it, Vince, it's
must see TV!

And don't forget about one of Dem Boys threatening to shoot
anybody who tries to tell his kids that gay is a-ok. Jay would -not- react well to Booty-O's, I suspect.

I thought the Bucks were given a chance, and then famously disrespected Booker T backstage?
Granted it was one of those dumb, "perceived disrespect" things were they didn't go up and shake hands with him or something. Probably a
completely non-malicious oversight that meant nothing... but I remember reading about Booker getting super pissy about it.
Is everyone mad here?
Of course they are, and you are too... otherwise, you wouldn't have come here.
