    Regal, sure hes a legend. An under achieving one to some extent but a legend none the less

    Hes a mans man after all. Without him we wouldnt have that awesome theme song.

    I do like Marty though, but Regal has to get the nod here.

    PS, remember Party Marty....

    Marty will be a star but Regal will at least get to the final here imo and gets my vote in this one (though the Irish lads might have something to say about the first part).


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,831 ✭✭✭johnnyryan89


    I like Marty, the Villan gimmick is one of my favourite gimmicks in awhile but always liked Regal and he done well with any gimmick thrown his way.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 6,773 Mod ✭✭✭✭connemara man


    Regal for me handled anything thrown at him incredibly well and is having an impact on up and coming talent aswell

    Regal for me. Awesome wrestler and he can do anything, from intensity to comedy


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,125 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Marty. I love Regal, but Marty is just so good. I've seen him a few times, and he's been fantastic to watch. I was ecstatic when he joined Bullet Club because it felt like they'd added someone that mattered for the first time in a while.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 51,365 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Another Regal vote from me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    The line up for the quarter final is a veritable who's who of the UK and Irish wrestling scene. The Elite 8 match-ups will begin this evening where a competitor will need four votes in order to make it through to the semi-final stage of the tournament. Stay tuned...
    William Regal ENG

    Neville ENG

    Finlay NI

    Jack Gallagher ENG

    Nigel McGuinness ENG

    Pete Dunne ENG

    Finn Balor IRE

    Tyler Bate ENG

    We relaunch the tournament with a bout featuring two guys who clashed prior to coming to WWE. They couldn't be more opposed to each other. It's first to four votes so ladies and gents without any further ado...

  • Registered Users Posts: 8,831 ✭✭✭johnnyryan89


    Dunne, I like Jack and think he's good crack but Dunne will be going to the top as main event level heel.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,469 ✭✭✭LeeJM


    Pete Dunne. Guy is already a star and will all things going well be the first English WWE World Champion. Jack is fine and entertaining but isnt near the level of Peter


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,849 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    Dunne for me too. Gallagher is great entertainment but Dunne is a big star in waiting.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 6,773 Mod ✭✭✭✭connemara man


    Gonna vote Jack. I don't question that dunne will be a talent but Jack is further ahead at the moment.

    I find it very hard to judge potential Vs current worker or older wrestler. Because you are basing it on the promise they have shown Vs something we've seen


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,553 ✭✭✭Blue_Dabadee


    I am going to go with Dunne, future main event star in the making.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,125 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Dunne. Jack has been fun, but he can't touch Dunne for entertainment value.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,301 ✭✭✭✭gerrybbadd


    Dunne. Jack is good, and fun to watch. The Bruiser weight is on another level. Top notch


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    The Bruiserweight bullies his way into the semi-final, looking a real contender here to go all the way. Can one of these men stop him perhaps?

    This is another tough one, with both men deserving winners. Gonna go with Regal as Neville's time will come, but Regal's time has passed and his career has been much better than Neville's at this point in time.
    Regal ftw!

    Neville for me just to even things up. I'd consider him more exciting in ring, so he just edges Regal out for me


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,469 ✭✭✭LeeJM


    Regal gets my vote as not only has he had a stellar career in ring with some legit great matches and some of the best comedy work in WWE history. But also now as the head talent scout for WWE he has played a major part in changing what the requirments are to be in WWE.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,831 ✭✭✭johnnyryan89


    Neville, his heel run since his return has been fantastic and have been a big fan of his work for awhile now.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 6,773 Mod ✭✭✭✭connemara man


    Regal for me was a far more diverse​ worker in terms of gimmicks and is having a lasting impact in terms of talent identification and training with NXT


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,849 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    Has to be Regal for me. Neville is good but hasn't shown the longevity of Regal.


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    It's the elder statesman who advances past the braggadocios King of the Cruiserweights in a mighty British tussle. However, it's a battle of two Irishmen in our next bout.

    Finn. For all the reasons I mentioned previously and I'll add that having the ability to shift from Demon King to leather jacket Balor Club leader at any given moment is a rare ability that not many people could pull off so well.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 51,365 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Yeah. Balor here. Infinitely more popular now in his career probably than Finlay was entirely. Also, love the Demon persona more than anything else in wrestling at the moment.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 6,773 Mod ✭✭✭✭connemara man


    Finn for me great wrestler and presence a lot further ahead in his career compared to where Finlay managed to get to

    Finn definitely. He's had a super career already and still has huge potential.
