nick is awesome
put time stamps please
Nick Aldis should be the next James Bond.
Dare I say I totally agree.
Watching him.. I was thinkimg the same thing.. Just you beat me to it.
Like for Real,, Wrestling aside, he can go to Hollywood movie business. Get him a great acting coach and his set. He reminds more of a Hugh Jackman
During the interview I kept thinking that he sounds like Daniel Craig 😁👍
He’s The James Bond of professional wrestling.
A slow burn from gm to competitor is something we haven’t seen before
I think it’d be interesting to see him in a role similar to HHH when he was in the authority
I can see Nick Aldis debut as an Royal Rumble participant
His injury won't allow him to ever wrestle again.
@@robertcornelius3514he literally just said he was ready 😂
@@bryannieves2635 , He will never wrestle another ten minute match in his life, unless of course it is highly orchestrated.
Team Nick vs Team Pierce but with the captains actually in the match.
Thatd be an epic Smackdown vs Raw match
I feel like if they bring back the bragging rights style Survivor Series it has got to be booked like this
Both former NWA champions. Pearce 5x & Aldis 2x. Both now general managers in WWE. Both Indy guys that have never had a match in WWE. There’s definitely a story there if they want to do something with it
I’ve said this now I’m pretty sure dating back to 2010, and it’s the fact that Nick Aldis EMBODIES what a world heavyweight champion looks, talks, and works like! Dying to finally see my boy get his chance in the ring at a Mania. He CAN draw money! He was such a quick study when he first started at Tna. They gave him a terrible gimmick at first because at the time American gladiators have been brought back to NBC television due to a writer strike (I myself played the beast character in the 2008 American gladiator launch) and I’ll never forget Dixie talking to me on the phone about, this incoming UK gladiator Nick Aldis who she said had a great success on the UK version of that show. I had the pleasure of working him in one of his very first live event matches while we were in the UK at the time. And from that evening on, this dude would come back the next time I’d get in the ring with him again, and had improved 10-fold!! Such a student of the game; he eat sleeps and drinks this business. He really is very reminiscent of Hunter. Especially the high IQ part, & the paying extra attention to the small details part, with his presentation.
Wow, it’s so cool to see wrestling peers take the time to comment and put over each other! Matt to me, you also Embody What a world champion is…Loved your work in TNA, from promos to in ring…you definitely were one of the reasons why I tuned into TNA on a weekly basis…💯💪🏽
Nick aldis vs cody rhodes in the future
Maybe. I like Orton vs Aldis more.
@@SamSamSamJ maybe but rhodes v. aldis part 2 will be insane
need both of those matches
Aldis vs Gunther in THE match for technicians/high IQ wrestlers: 60 minute iron man match.
Since James Bond is "dead" now, Aldis is the next best thing. I'll sign up for seeing him versus a villain like Gunther.
No more Iron Man matches.
Gives me such joy to see Aldis get the opportunity at WWE
I’d love to see him back in the ring, would be huge even if it’s only a 2-3 match thing
This guy is great. So well rounded and great on screen. Looks, acts, and presents like a star.
Everyone’s favorite GM, former TNA and NWA champ. Can’t wait to see him in the ring in WWE, he’s 37, so he’s in his wrestling prime and can really make for some great storylines if he’s in-ring.
Great interview!
Nick was a student of the game. Love it
Congratulations on the 100k subs.
Nick Aldis was the man in NWA.
I love this up close and personal perspective
He was still MAGNUS to me before he joined WWE and gm haha although I loved and respected his NWA run with Kamille and that faction
A British Invasion tag team with Aldis & Barrett would be cool
I would fucking LOVE to see Nick and Adam fight each other at the next Survivor Series.
I think if Nick gets an in ring opportunity, he could become a big star.
Excellent work!!
What type of injury does he have? Haven't watched the whole thing yet and wondering what's keeping him from the ring and if it's possible he comes back
'Magnus' probably should have had a WWE run given everything he brought to pro wrestling. I'd love to see him tag with Adam Pearce in a 'y'all must have forgot' match against someone on the roster who's been disrespecting the authority figures.
That or survivor series bragging rights match makes sense for them
Could be the suit. But Aldis is looking huge. You forget how big wrestlers are until they stand next to regular people
Aldis is definitely jacked but his suit is also a reminder to all us regular people who attempt to wear suits to get them fitted.
He's swole as
I like His work on Tv. I need to watch some of his matches
He fought Cody, great match🔥👏🏻
Magnus coming back to action 💪🏾🫵🏾
Nick sounds American when talking with brits and British when talking with American, guess he has an inclusive vocabulary. 😊❤
This dude is the definition off cool
LA Knight/Nick Aldis tag team
I definitely see some Nick Bockwinkel in Aldis.
Oblivion needs to become a heel gm, do a new generation corporation fueding with cody & book himself a championship match, screw cody out the belt & let cody have another baby face climb to the title against the new corporation... After cody handles the new bloodline & rock ofcourse
Aldis vs Knight will heal me. TNA has really invaded…
These guys are sitting very uncomfortably close 😂
Lol. I was thinking the same thing and I only saw the thumbnail
Just the black dudes, but yes.
When Characters mess up and think Nick Aldis is retired... He's sitting down so you can stand. I'm just waiting for the night.
I have his in ring return is sooner than later
Now i can see if later reveal that aldis is the real final boss
Adam vs Nick
🙌
This man has to wrestle. He should have had a Title Match with Roman.
Roman doesn’t have a title😂
@@blaisejones1053 “SHOULD OF HAD a Title Match”
why is this table so clustrophoebic?
WWE SMACKDOWN GM
I feel like he's being wasted as GM.
As usual yall wrestling fans never satisfy 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤡
I believe he have serious injury that couldn't allow him to be in the ring for a long while that's why he being hired as Smackdown GM and he did a really good job with it so far
@Dontmatter215blahblah you've clearly never seen him wrestle, and grammar isn't your strong suit, so I'd just stop talking if I were you. You're embarrassing yourself.
@@djdepression bla bla bla
@KingInfernagon not sure why yall are so triggered by me saying someone is being wasted in an authority role instead of being a wrestler. It's honestly pretty weird.
Wwe is not doing its best ever attitude era had almost 10 million viewers
It's best in business
Magnus….🥲
Nick Aldis is the man
