Thoughts on Souled Out so far?

22 comments

1. Better than where he was. He actually has a legit foundation with HOT and can build himself up here. A lot of huge stars found themselves by being a heel first. I think it was a good choice personally.

2. Very happy even with the somewhat silly sith robes.

   Darth Ren is doing well so far

3. The House is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural…

   *Is it possible to learn this power?*

   Not from Shibata…

4. Taguchi’s parody of LIJ EVIL>This robe tbh

5. Good change. Hopefully they’ll let Ren raise the HoT common denominator a bit and showcase him competitively.

6. Souled Out is an awesome nickname.

   I love the turn. Was legitimately unexpected, and makes him far more interesting than he was before as a generic bland strong style babyface.

   Finisher sucks ass.

7. Wasn’t that a WCW ppv?

8. The robe is the only bad thing about it.

   Make it a less simple (different material maybe?) and have the robe part be more suited to Narita’s size (Hoods fine)

   I do like his addition because it has made House of Torture have more of an upside. I watched their Invasion of NOAH and it was really good. Probably their best moment. They came in through the crowd, beat up everybody and then did their pose and put out their “cigarettes” on the guy they just beat up

9. I like it ig but we’ll see

10. If Naito wins at the Dome, I desperately want Narita to run out and interrupt the roll call. Dude would have heat for life if he did that.

11. That hood is not it, it looks like he just got back from a LARP session

12. Like the turn, hate the robe.

13. The darkside of the force is strong within this padawan.

14. Not a fan of the homemade looking robe that needs a lint brush. Otherwise, it was the right call and he seems so much better suited to being a heel than a face.

15. Definitely a change for the better. Think we’ll have a better impression after his WK tag match, though.

16. Coughlin posted that picture of Kermit with the robe, and that’s more or less what I think of his look. Nothing that can’t be fixed later though.

    Everything else? Awesome.

17. I always felt Narita was better as a heel. The robe was interesting as it made me think of him being a student learning the way of the heel. Hopefully, HoT
    upgrades their game.

18. he looks cool. looking forward to the tag match at the dome.

    they should win the tag belts at new beginning

19. He is awesome . X-factors are the coolest thing anyone can do . If I was a taekwondo instructor I would introduce new self defense forms and they would be sit out tombstones and cipher utakis and rainmakers and X factor

20. The look ain’t it. I don’t mind the name too much…

    Kinda wish he joined War Dogs instead of HoT if he had to turn at all.

21. Stache + chin beard with the hood on makes him look like a redditor

22. This subreddit has conditioned me to immediately assume this is a picture of Taguchi. Goddammit.
