The Wrestling Thread got interviewed by Sean Mooney

[Hunter Rider]

So much comedy in the first pic, Show looks asleep.

Well, your in the minority.

Eh I don't mind,Rock's character dissing a heel like D-Bry was expected and D-Bry does look short&small compared to Rock and so it was an easy joke for Rock

I bet the main reason why people have a problem with it is cause there huge D-Bry fans and so they feel he shouldn't be buried like that,Pfft being biased sucks

 

[Dr. Evil]

So Punk and Edge swapped partners?

 

[Wheels]

Punk and Lita have been off on for awhile I think. I'm not sure but I think he had a stint with Lita before dating Beth, and now he he's back with Lita.

And is it just me, or did Steph get in a few sharp barbs on Heyman while all Heyman got to say in response was "What daddy's princess wants princess gets!".

Her lines about ECW felt like the McMahons smugly rubbing it in shoot style.

I'm actually a little more optimistic about Punk's heel turn than everyone else. I think this will be a resurgence of his character and make him more interesting than he's ever been, if they let him.

My only gripe is that he is obviously being set up to lose to Rock at the Rumble so Cena/Rock II can be for the WWE title. I hate that aspect of it because as Hunter said, they are sacrificing Punk so Cena can get the win he should have gotten at the last Mania. Now you've had both of your biggest stars job to a guy who is not even a part-timer for your company.

Punk COULD be a great heel if he's booked strong but they'll probably book him like sh**. Against Rock? Chances are slim of a heel Punk going over. Most of WWE's heels are booked like chickensh**ts and in this case it'll probably only be magnified. Theres no way they are REALLY going to let him cut loose with his best mic shots on The Rock. Its probably why they are turning him heel. This isn't like Cena. Punk is a cool babyface that could really get a lot of the crowd behind him against The Great One.

The signs last night just didn't look good. He was conflicted on wether or not to pin Cena but he had no problem taking out Rock. It was Rock who interrupted he and Bryan and interjected himself into the title scene without earning it and Rock who came out all super babyface to make the save later. I don't think his issue will initially be with Cena but they've already laid groundwork for him to take on The Rock.

 

[TX85]

I wish I could interview Heath Slater and ask him how he felt about the whole Legends thing with him for the month,IF I was in his role I'd feel..Very honored and be marking out for a LONG time!!

Slater got to work with decent-great Legends and he even got some offence in most of his matches with them,I'd be smiling ear to ear right now IF Lita moonsaulted onto me!!

I think it'd e such a shame IF Slater feels just like his character!

 

[NDX]

Amazing Lita pics. Does anyone have a gif of that sick Clothesline From Hell?

 

[Metallo]

Punk's knees are so brutal they can apparently do THIS...

...to your face

Godd*** everybody wants a piece. Look at Backlunds face.

Probably the one legend Slater didn't mind on top of him.

 

[Van Petrol]

Oh, just forgot about the cringiest moment of the night: Waltman slithering his arm around Trish.

Rock referring to D-Bry as an oompa loompa/frodo and Sheen's "musings" throughout the night are close runner ups though.

And is it just me, or did Steph get in a few sharp barbs on Heyman while all Heyman got to say in response was "What daddy's princess wants princess gets!".

Of course, it's the Stephanie and Trips show. I'm starting to get the feeling that not only will Trips go over Brock at SS, but he may even avoid getting the F5.

 

[Hunter Rider]

^^^ Nah he'll take the F-5 so he can kick out of it.

Shieky tweets on Raw 1000.

Gorilla Blood just found a followup to the game What the Hell did the Iron Sheik Say?! with What the Hell did the Iron Sheik Tweet?!

I love it!

 

[Wheels]

Sheik rules. He should be the social media ambassador for WWE, and have the announcers check in every week. It would be comedy gold.

 

[Dr. Evil]

(Caption the pic):

Big Show is dreaming of how he can out-eat New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, former NFL First Round flop Jamarcus Russell, Former Kansas Coach Mark Mangino and current Kansas coach Charlie Weiss in an eating contest.

That was better than Raw.

 

[Incrediblejeff]

The divas really got the short end of the stick of RAW 1000.Not one divas match.

 

[Anno_Domini]

The Rock vs Shawn Michaels vs Ric Flair vs Dolph Ziggler

What an over-selling match that will be

 

[Trainwreck2100]

The divas really got the short end of the stick of RAW 1000.Not one divas match.

Probably better for them since Lita showed more skills in 2 moves than we've seen in that division for like 6 months.

 

[Benstamania]

Im not about to proclaim that I know what the WWE is doing... Because I dont.

I dont know how Punk will be booked... He could very well be a chicken heel because thats what WWE does... However, they may surprise me.

Hayman stated that he wants to work with Punk... Maybe this will start that. CM Punk pares with Lesnar... Maybe we find out Triple H was behind everything all along which caused Punk to go to the dark side.

I often give WWE too much credit.. However, as much of a fan of Punk as I am.. I much prefer his heel work... Honestly, his face run was getting stale.

My hopes will probably be crushed... But I'll just wait and see.

 

[Wheels]

I don't trust WWE to book a heel well, that's all it comes down to for me. Cena and Rock will most likely overcame nothing because WWE hasn't allowed a heel to get over on the faces in years. WWE doesn't build heat anymore.

This makes me wonder guys...who would you say was the last heel that was really built up as a heel that the faces couldn't overcome?

They'd all start bumping around before anyone threw a shot.

I thought about a potential team-up with Lesnar and Heyman but I don't see how it would work since Brock is hardly ever there.

You could argue Lesnar, but for a sustained run of heel dominance it's Triple H.
