Lost the streak and was never heard from again.

Lost the streak and was never heard from again.

Yeah, I knew the streak ended. Very bothered by who it was ended by. I always figured that he would retire if/when the streak ended. He certainly deserves to retire by this point.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Just because I had to. Dat hair tho.

I wonder if Seth Rollins will ever be allowed to do a Phoenix splash in the WWE?

Why am I 90% certain JBL getting Neville's nickname wrong was was on purpose?

Welcome back to the den of inquity, brother!

Just because I had to. Dat hair tho.

Okay, he totally has to do that again when he's back. Maybe as a way of trolling the current COO; he can call himself Triple Dean, Hunter Hearst Ambrose or Hunter Hearst Deansley.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Dean Ryzing.

 

[TX85]

Ambrose reminds me more of HBK there than HHH

Okay so last night's RAW was the best of the year.

I dont understand how "THE NEW SEASON OF RAW" really works...But I am guessing it allows them to reset a few things and change formats/rules, etc..

I have to say the biggest highlight was the Cena vs Heyman mic confrontation.That was excellent stuff by both...Heyman is a regular on this and he deserves it, but Cena stepped up. Loved the shot he took at Taker.

Jericho vs Wyatt was fantastic...That huge jump by Jericho was pure awesome. I know Jericho has been at the center of trying to push Bray in the WWE. He knows Bray has elite potential.

Bella vs Bella was the worst garbage to date...Springer and Steph...Honestly GTFO with this boring nonsense. It is badly acted

NXT fight was a breath of fresh air...At times I fast forward some fights but this was amazing. That guy who did the awesome twirl jump and was fast engaging was awesome...He needs to come up soon.

Seth Rollins jumping on Reigns was cool, a decent end to the night. But I will take away the Heyman vs Cena mic confrontation and the Jericho slam from up top

 

[Zeus]

ALSO, I have been playing WWE Supercard

It is so addictive that I played it 8 hours straight on my phone on Sunday night. I got so tired at work yesterday.

Best app game I've played. 2K and WWE released a great product...I am sure as most apps they will mess it up but this honestly is the best game out there

Backstage Reaction To Last Night’s NXT Match, Will They Be Back On Raw?

The general consensus to the match backstage was overwhelmingly positive. Triple H was grinning ear to ear watching the match on the backstage monitor, and the wrestlers popped big for some spots (as did the Baltimore Arena crowd).

Many felt the match was built around Adrian Neville, and judging by the crowd reaction, it worked. Internally, both Zayn and Breeze are perceived as stars as well, but Neville is so flashy and quick that it was a sure-fire way to garner some interest in himself, NXT, and most importantly, the WWE Network.

Considering how well they performed Monday, you can expect to see a lot more of the NXT wrestlers on Raw, according to a backstage source.

I was about to say something similar. If anything, the match on Raw was all about getting Neville over and making a strong first impression for the main audience.

I have no idea who will win Thursday, but the only thing I'm most certain about is that Neville will lose the belt and will be called up soon.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I think all 3 NXT belts will change hands. Charlotte I see getting called up soon, the Ascension definitely, and Neville is a maybe. I see them waiting just a little bit longer on him. Maybe get more of his character developed. Zayn and Breeze are so ready for TV and I see the latter walking out as champ/

Man, which of these moves out of this video would you like to see Ziggler bring back:

Top 50 moves of Dolph Ziggler
[YT]YZ0MlfQ4aeI[/YT]

My two cents:

1. it's crazy that more than half of those moves, Ziggler no longer seems to do for whatever reason. I'm not saying he should be a moveset junkie but him having some of those moves would be good for when he's on offense in his matches so his detractors can't say all he does is bump. Plus, It gets irritating seeing Ziggler get beat for 80% of some of his matches.

Anyway, if there are any out of that video that I think Ziggler should use again, they are....

1. Fireman's carry takedown

2. Bridging German suplex

3. Northern lights suplex

4. Rolling Neck Snap

5. Scoop Powerslam

6. Single leg crab

These are all moves that he can quickly fire off and mix with his current moves seamlessly

Oh boy when those two go to TV, they'll have to call up Solomon Crowe, KENTA, Steen, and Devitt to fill the void like pronto.

I'm pretty sure Sandow is being built for a face turn. He's going to turn on Miz down the road.

 

[DarkSentinel]

As long as Sandow is being built for SOMETHING. Dude should at least be in the US title picture.

Also, love the new title.

 

[runawayboulder]

Sandow mimicking The Miz on RAW was beyond hysterical

When the rumors of Sandow turning face popped up months ago, I said it couldn't be done. Sandow's original gimmick wasn't fit for a face, but now he's no longer the intellectual savour. Now, as to why WWE might want Sandow as a face I don't know.
