The Wrestling Thread Lured You In And Brought You Down! - Part 243

[nite-owl]

Interesting fact despite being WWE champion Jinder Mahal has no merchandise to buy.

 

[Dr. Evil]

One person is speculating that Jinder will lose the title to John Cena at Summerslam. IMO, Summerslam is too early for Cena to break the record. I think he should break the record at WM 34.

No thanks, August is fine; let him get his reign out of the way, so he can drop it before Mania.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Cena is expected back on July 4th but I don't know if he's going to be back for just that one night or back for a few weeks.

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

He should definitely beat Cena for credibility and eventually lose it to an up and coming babyface that they can make into a huge star, like JBL to Cena back in 05.

But knowing WWE, we'll probably get Cena wins lol. Doo Doo Doo Doooo!

 

[Pink Ranger]

Cena breaking the record against an opponent like Mahal would be a sucky way of making history. I hate to say this, but the best option right now is for Mahal to lose it to Styles, and for Styles to lose to Cena.

Maybe Mahal shouldn't be champion if he's too sucky an opponent to give Cena his 17th run. Just Sayin'

Meh, we've had transitional champions before. Iron Sheik, Kevin Nash, Sergeant Slaughter, Sid Vicious; not that Mahal is on the levels of those guys, but none of them were championship material.

I don't see what the big deal is. He's supposed to have all this potential as champion. What's wrong with him dropping it to Cena?

I jdon't see what the big deal is. He's supposed to have all this potential as champion.

I'm okay with the occasional out of left field choice, sometimes, and I'm not ruling Jinder out. But Cena breaking the championship record is supposed to be a big deal, and he should do it against a more established opponent. So unless by some miracle of booking and unexpected fan reaction Jinder becomes the next Superstar Billy Graham over the next few months, he wouldn't be the guy for Cena to do that against.

I suppose not, but I hope we at least get to see Nakamura vs Cena or Nakamura vs Cena vs Styles out of all this. I'm cool with Cena winning #17 at this point, even at WrestleMania, but I do hope that we could get AJ and/or Nak involved.

Lol, the DOD was like the entire Malibu Comics universe coming to life.

I wonder how the Big Show felt about being in the Dungeon of Doom.

Their goal was to end Hulkamania, so what exactly did they do when Hogan ended Hulkamania himself at Bash at the Beach 1996?

The Velveteen Dream is freaking legit. Patrick Clark is going to go in the win column for the Performance Center; I can feel it.

It didn't seem like the crowd gave a damn about him.

He was so good though. Everything he did looked great.

Not doubting that, I just don't know if the crowd at Full Sail is going to give him any reaction.

It was really quiet during that match live in the arena.

The hottest part of the NXT TV taping was Aleister Black coming out.

 

[NDX]

Give it time and I think Clark will have the crowd eating out of his had. The glimpses we've gotten of this character the last few months have been interesting. I look forward to seeing where this all goes.

 

[javonstokess]

Mahal should hold the title almost as long as Seth Rollins did.

Cena needs to get his 17th title at Wrestlemania and it should be against a heel so bad that the fans can't HELP but to cheer for John.

 

[Warhammer]

And I hope it isn't in a smark town because Cena surpassing Flair will unleash nuclear heat.

 

[Wheels]

Just do it. There's no going back now anyway.
