The Wrestling Thread has much larger nipples

The King of the Ring Tournament is so boringly predictable, it’s Cody vs Orton, Cody wins to rematch Cena, wins and has another super boring Championship reign…. Zzzzzzzzzzzzz…

Queen of the Ring much more interesting because at least it’s harder to predict… Tough choice coming up for HHH, Jade or Roxanne? Both newer stars they want to push… Both green as grass, Jade is probably more over with the crowd and has more aura, Roxanne’s a bit better in the ring… Alexa advances but I feel like that has more to do with the Charlotte/Alexa storyline moment than it does the Tournament…

Punk with a great promo, but it’s hard for me to get interested in any match with Cena, never thought much of him in the ring and he’s more or less washed now, Punk isn’t as good in the ring as he once was either… This is a promo rivalry for a match that will just be OK… By far the most interesting thing since Cena’s heel run started though, just based on the strength of Punk’s promos… Honestly just can’t wait until “The Last Time is Now” is actually now… More interested in Peacemaker Cena than wrestler Cena… He won me over as an actor, he never won me over as a wrestler..
 
Its weird how the hottest thing to come out of John Cena's heel turn, something fans have fantasy booked for two decades, is.... R-Truth vs. John Cena. And they already did it last month, and Truth got let go afterwards, and that caused such a **** storm that they were forced to rehire him and let him be himself, and its honestly hotter than CM Punk vs. John Cena is right now. What a crazy business.
 
And Knight gets pinned again. I have no doubt that if he goes to Raw he'll be the sacrificial lamb for the Brons to obliterate. Why even put him in that opening promo?

Cody is winning KotR to set up SummerSlam match with Cena

Jade will win QotR, face Tiffy and then, Naomi cashes in. That's my take anyway
 
It wasn't a huge surprise that Cody won his KOTR match, and I expected Orton to win his as well, as I knew Bron would cost Knight, but it was interesting that in the opening promo segment Knight did get a chance to insert himself in the top tier mix, and Black really got to stand out in the match with a lot of offence. The final might be Cody vs Orton but I wouldn't be shocked if it's Sami vs Cody, given the show is in Saudi.

I figured Jade would win her QOTR match given the other 3 who were in it, but Michin and Piper carried the bulk of it. The other match was harder to guess between Alexa and Charlotte, and the finish was well done, I'm glad Alexa qualified. Roxy is already one of the best workers on the roster so she'll carry Jade to a solid match, which I'm guessing Jade will win, the other semi final is harder to predict as we don't know if Asuka or Stephanie will be in it, but I'm hoping it'll be Asuka, as the window of opportunity to do Iyo vs Asuka is there.

The promo from Naomi was good, she's really stepped up with this heel run, but please tell me the aftermath didn't set up Tiffy vs Nia again, for Night of Champions? :dry:

You can tell Jacob is fully face now as he opened his promo with the city name drop lol, obviously next week he'll tell Solo where to shove it and set up their US title match at Night of Champions.

Punks promo was excellent, as was Cena’s opening Mount Rushmore tactician promo that opened the show. I'm not sure how things will go down at Night of Champions, but this is the best thing on Cena's retirement tour so far.
 
By all accounts, they took the title off of Jey and put it back on Gunther because they want Goldberg's retirement match against Gunther to be a World title match. That is just business.

Jey had a better first WHC reign than Christian had in 2011, and Christian was a better wrestler. **** happens.

Roman Reigns first two title reigns were 42 days *combined*… His third run was 77 days… Roman Reigns, the guy Vince hand picked to be the future of the company…

It took Vince being gone for Roman to be the face of the company, so it worked, but Vince wasn't there to see it. It also took Roman to have a long heel run for him to finally become the face the WWE always wanted him to be.
 
Los Garzas won the AAA Tag Team Titles. They had beaten the previous title holders, who are the brother and cousin of El Cuatrero, the ex of Stephanie Vaquer and let's just say that things did not end well between them. Let's just say that her ex is basically Alberto del Rio in terms of how he treats women.

I mean no. He was the face of the company well before he left. By Mania 38 at the latest.
 
He’s mad at everything but his Nepo Baby’s lack of wrestling skills.

Honestly, I'm surprised that he's still allowed to use the spear. I've seen kids that have performed better spears than Jey. It also doesn't help that you have the likes of Bron and even Roman giving out stronger spears in comparison.

Had this taken place 20 years ago, I feel like Jey would've been sent back to OVW for more training.
 
Kross should have been in that match instead of Jey but :shrug:

My guess now is Jey will win. Cody will have to beat all his friends before getting to Cena. Jey, Randy, and Sammi before finally getting his rematch with Cena
