      @marvinleong5902 Před 8 měsíci +15

      @ivancamacho9581 Remember when Taker came into WWE in late 1990, Andre was already immovable, so his impressions of Andre is that Andre, not the agile Andre that toured around the country and Japan so he is not that wrong in Omos being a later stage Andre, slow, immovable but drew attention everytime he walks out

There's going to be a lot of time spinning your wheels, the best thing you can do is get match experience and stay positive over it because that might be the best thing you'll get from it, ring experience.
