The Wrestling Thread Got, GOT by Little Jimmy!!!!

[NDX]

Oh come on, they give me a Shawn/CM Punk confrontation after Shawn retires?!!!

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

 

[The Sage]

CM Punk speaking the truth about him being better than everyone in the back.

 

[The Sage]

Well that's a waste of a CM Punk match...

 

[NDX]

Sillyputty's down! SUILLYPUTTY'S DOWN! MEDIC!

 

[TripleR]

That promo alone just made this show worthwhile, regardless of how far down it goes from here.

 

[NDX]

Well, look like Punk's winning, Kane's pyro went off before the match.

 

[Specter313]

Booker certainly seems to be having fun with his role tonight.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Man, what I wouldn't give for a HBK/Punk program.

 

[Heretic]

Once again, the "mystery" opponent is Kane. I mean really...is it ever really a mystery when the answer is always the same??? And besides...Punk didnt know who his opponent was anyway...so no matter what selection the wheel picked, he would have had a mystery opponent.

 

[Metallo]

I'd give almost anything to see a HBK/Punk feud. WWE must know how bad I wanted it and teased it. Even if we couldn't get it giving us a taste is better than nothing I guess.

What did Shawn say at the start of the show? Why is he there tonight?


As for Punk vs Kane...Kane sure is the go to "mystery opponent" guy lately. Even more so than usual. Does WWE not even try anymore?

He said that he's there because he missed it all, and not to shill anything he's doing right now, then proceeded to do just that.

 

[NDX]

Well, Truth is at least wrestling.

I really hate when the work Vegas for RAW. This roulette bull is always ****.

 

[The Sage]

Sin Cara vs Bourne!

 

[Metallo]

Ah. I figured he might be there to talk about his new show or the upcoming dvd with The Hitman.

 

[NDX]

Maybe it was because I was at ROH last night, but that seemed to fall flat.

 

[The Sage]

Fun match, but there were several botches that they covered up pretty well. The finished looked botch. It looks like it was supposed to be a single arm ddt but looked like a tilt a whirl fujiwara armbar instead.

 

[strikezone89]

I really like Sin Cara, and that they are trying to make the "little" guy popular again... but I can't stand that while watching some of his matches, you know something will botch. No matter how they cover it up, eventually a botch is going to seriously injure someone. Maybe it a language barrier that makes it more difficult, or wrestling styles, but I think Cara needs a bit of work.

 

[cabel]

You ever try to watch a really awesome video on youtube, but it keeps pausing to buffer every 20 seconds. That was that match.

Who botches into the wrong move?

 

[TheIncredibleSk]

It looked like a tit a whirl face plant. Didnt look that botch to me.

 

[Specter313]

Minus one or two people, that's a great line up for the Raw MITB match.

 

[NDX]

It looked like he attempted La Mistica but I thought it was supposed to go 2 rotations. Maybe Bourne took the faceplant too early? Maybe it was just the camera angle there, but I thought it looked wrong.

 

[strikezone89]

Edit

 

[The Sage]

Maybe that's what it was, but it looked like an arm focused move, like he went for the armbar but rolled him up for the pin?
