Meh

It’s cute. Not sure where they’re going with it but it’s not really a gimmick or story that’s cheer or boo worthy right now.

It’ll be a great in joke years from now at All Out 10. Have a backstage segment and all of a suddden the librarian shows up to Shhhhhhh the fuck outta some wrestler. It’ll be great.

 

[LOL Mic Skills]

put me in the camp that loves Leva Bates and her lovely "assets" as well

I also like the gimmick, but they shouldn't be doing the shhhhh thing every 5 seconds, I liked the outside interference/leg trip angle while reading a book spot, but then he started yelling and shouting in defense which just killed the librarian persona, he shoulda kept a quiet and composed demeanor

I still think it's a good and workable gimmick they just gotta adjust some things and Leva herself has to move a bit more fast paced and execute some of these spots in a more timely manner

 

[BigCy]

I tell you what though if a new fan sees a pre-show of the librarian gimmick and you expect them to buy the pay-per-view you're crazy LOL no one's going to do that I say take them off even the pre-show

This is honestly the biggest reason I didn't order DoN. I thought the whole thing would be hokey.

The Elite struggle with trying to be funny while attempting to be taken seriously by the wrestling world. They are good wrestlers, they are not funny. Kenny making stupid faces and putting his thumb up should have been their last attempt at trying to make people laugh.

I think Khan will gradually drag in the over use of the comedy, that's why I say that I could see either the Bucks or Omega not lasting long with AEW. I could see Khan once AEW gets into a comfortable position and has a loyal fanbase that he probably cut a lot of the comedy talent and move away from Been The Elite thing. I'm sure it will mean either The Bucks or Omega jumping ship or one of the parties going.

 

[lesenfanteribles]

The gimmick feels like one of those things I'd see in a Brazzers video. :lmao That ass on Leva though~ :thirst3 :thirst3 :thirst3 :thirst3 :thirst3

Some keep saying "Hey they're trying things out not everythings gonna work" but lets be real here who the hell would think this would have any chance of working or be good in the slightest? A freaking 5 year old would know thats a horrible idea and would not work. As bad as WWE is sometimes i couldn't even picture them trying something this fucking dumb and awful, its the most bush league indy kind of gimmick i've ever seen.

I frankly worry about future creative ideas from whoever came up with this shit, cause i can picture more dumb shit like this coming from said person.

 

[LICC]

Just let this simmer for awhile...

There was a running joke on BTE that CM PUNK will not play the Librarian

And there is building go-away heat on the character now

What better way to swerve a debut?

One can dream

Mate, please - it is a tongue in cheek commentary about characters being created by management and not being themselves - ie> what Vince does

The whole librarian thing was supposedly ‘forced’ by Tony during BTE (3 episode long story)

They just did not get the joke translated - nobody actually thought an actual Librarian was a good gimmick

Thats fine but almost any casual or even most indie fans who watches that wont know the backstory or behind the scenes details and think the creative is shit and wont continue to watch.

Thats one of the issues they keep expecting fans to know shit from BTE and alot don't watch that, so half their audience isn't in on the joke they're trying to do.

A large majority of their fans came from that medium - it is weird to expect them not to wrap up ongoing stories from there in this new platform. That would be disregarding their core fanbase - that is not their style

But look, they’re creating new stories right before you now that you can be a part of.

Within time it will all even out

OK, I keep reading about people talking about Leva Bate's ass going through this thread.

.......Did y'all see Allie's ass in that same match? I mean c'mon now, priorities people, lol.

 

[Dixie]

It's one of the worst gimmicks I've ever seen in modern wrestling. I don't know how it got on TV. Stupid gimmick for stupid marks...

The only positive is staring at Leva Bates.

How long until every mistake they make isn't excused as an unfunny, in-joke mocking the opposition? Seems like a cop out to me.

 

[Tilon]

Someone on wreddit suggested a 'Loser Gets Eaten' match between Librarian and Luchasaurus

I'm down.

I’m guessing until tv starts and they have a show everybody can watch?

It can seem like a cop out to you all you want - but it is what it is

I explained the joke - i’m agreeing it didn’t land.

Let’s see where it goes

An incredible performance by both women in the butt department. 5 stars!

There has still not been a collection of pictures of the highlights (that i've seen anyway!). Which is a little disappointing, especially when you see some of the picture threads of other womens wrestlers that get posts containing 10 different shots of them walking to the ring.

Lucha-Thesaurus??

 

[rexmundi]

The gimmick is fine with me as I do like me some hot librarian images. :banderas

 

[Tilon]

For those who don't watch the Youtube videos, everyone hated the librarian gimmick except Tony, who's making them do it. It's a bad gimmick on purpose.

Yeah, that doesn't mean it doesn't suck of course. They'll probably capitalize on how much the character is hated by burying it somehow, and it'll get a good pop.

It all makes sense. And WWE's terrible booking has just been a joke aimed at Impact Wrestling's shit booking. I get it now.
