The Wrestling Thread Is Driving Through Suplex City! - Part 201

[zeroapoc]

Damn this match is great.

 

[Pink Ranger]

I hope Sheamus brought the rest of Prodigy with him.

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

With Neville and his great abilities, I'll quote Joe Pesci, "If you win, you win. If you lose, you still win.

 

[runawayboulder]

They're making Neville look really good with these losses. It's working pretty well.

Yep. Being in high profile matches is better for a new guy than squashing jobbers.

 

[sweetre15]

So glad I came back from work just in time to see that match between Ziggler and Neville...quality stuff.

 

[LOBO3315a]

I'll be pleasantly surprised when they let the high flying Gollum look alike actually win.

 

[sweetre15]

What's good about the way they've handled Neville is they let him beat guys like Curtis Axel no sweat but still push the top guys like Rollins and Ziggler to the limit.

 

[DarkSentinel]

Even Cole calls him Adrian!! Come on, dammit! Just call the man Adrian.

He has.

It shows that they respect him as a champion from their lower tier on the main stage. It bodes well for guys like Zayn and Owens.

I'm sure he caught holy hell for it in his headset too.

 

[zeroapoc]

Vince: "Adrian? That sounds f*****ty. Drop it."

 

[Pink Ranger]

Seth gets smarmier every week. Soon he's going to implode into a white dwarf of sarcasm.

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

I feel like Rollins' nose isn't the right shape for his face.

 

[Pink Ranger]

Love Seth's "I just **** my pants" expression.

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

Was hoping for Hell in a Cell, but whatever. Banning the RKO? Eh.

 

[The Chris]

How can a move be banned in a steel cage match?

 

[Lead Cenobite]

How can a move be banned in a steel cage match?

A match can have any stipulation the writers want it to have. If a steel cage match is traditionally no dq, think of this as a "no dq except for if Orton uses the RKO" match.

It's also important for the announcers to emphasize that as well

 

[Trainwreck2100]

if orton does the ddp diamond sign before he does his finisher he'll still be good

 

[Lead Cenobite]

That would be funny. He only has to remember not to jump before the facelock and then it's technically not an RKO.

Or if he drinks a beer in the ring after.

Oh I'm sure Trips will no doubt fight hard for his NXT5 to succeed. He's invested too much in Owens, Neville, Balor, and Zayn.

[Trainwreck2100]

come to think of it since when is banning a move an "extreme rule" using the banned move would be the extreme rule
