The Wrestling Thread's Never Been So Disgusted With a PPV... - Part 139

[Incrediblejeff]

Only if they are still around by then.

Nah,Ring Of Honor will still be around.Did you think I meant TNA?

 

[The Apocalypse]

Pfft, he wouldn't even touch them, and they couldn't afford him.

Punk's contract is worth more than that company. t:

 

[Herolee10]

Good lord, how may cousins does the Rock have?

Rosey, Jamal, Tamina, the Usos, and Reigns. I know he's also related to Rikishi obviously, but I forgot how exactly.lol


Also, well...after tonight, we may be able to use a new famous phrase whenever talking to some of our friends...

"Dude, you got screwed faster than Daniel Bryan"

 

[sweetre15]

I have a feeling that we will have to REBEL by skipping the segments with Orton and/or Batista and not buying PPVs until this crap gets sorted out.

 

[Specter313]

No, but the Winter Olympics are coming very soon.

Exactly. They sure don't look very tempting to anyone who has to decide between them and the Olympics.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

He can Cross The Line and go to The Next Arena available.

 

[Saint]

He's admitted to going through the motions until his contract expires in July. I know he plans to take a break , the question is if he would ever return. It's not going to be full time .

It's a shame that Punk might never get to headline Wrestlemania.

 

[Pink Ranger]

Seriously, I wonder what it would take for Ted Turner or Mark Cuban to shell out some cash, sign Bryan, Punk and Ziggler, and start a new wrestling company.

That doesn't really matter unless you have a Nielsen box.That's the only way ratings are tabulated.

 

[TX85]

I love Roman reigns getting praise and his pops tonight was awesome

 

[venom892]

Thank god Daft Punk won big at the Grammys and had one hell of a performance. Otherwise I'd be really disappointed right now.

Maybe they'll jump ship to JJ's new project..But doubt it

 

[Pink Ranger]

Daft Punk wins the Royal Rumble!

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Reigns really did put on a star making performance.

 

[Specter313]

That doesn't really matter unless you have a Nielsen box.That's the only way ratings are tabulated.

They're starting to count DVR and On Demand viewings these days too, so nobody DVR or On Demand any of the shows anymore!

Ditto,That put me in a much better mood.Loved that album.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Exactly. They sure don't look very tempting to anyone who has to decide between them and the Olympics.

Like me. And I'm taking the latter.

 

[X Knight]

It's a shame that Punk might never get to headline Wrestlemania.

this was the perfect opportunity.

have him enter as #1 at the Rumble and outlast everyone to win it.

which gives him a ticket to headline WM.

but.........NO!! NO!! NO!!! NO!!!!!

 

[The Batman]

There are rumors of a

Spoiler

chick fight between Gillian and Saldana.

that's definitely...interesting.

If only Vin Diesel was cast as Drax. We wouldn't even be having this conversation.

Too true.

I liked heel Batista....but this comeback is officially worse than The Rock's. At least with him, you understood why they bent over backwards.

 

[venom892]

Daft Punk wins the Royal Rumble!

1.Daft Punk have a gimmick Mcmahon would have loved in the early 90's. French robots? instant mega-heels!

2.I would mark the hell out.

3.Their chant would be "ONE.MORE.TIME!"

4. It sadly would have been better than what transpired tonight.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Match of The Night was without a doubt the opener. Great match.

 

[Herolee10]

Seriously, I wonder what it would take for Ted Turner or Mark Cuban to shell out some cash, sign Bryan, Punk and Ziggler, and start a new wrestling company.

We could have him call it the..."WDR: Wrestling Dreams Realized"

The championships would be called:

1. The WDR Heavyweight Championship

2. The WDR Treated like a real Mid-Carder Championship

3. The WDR Not ready for mid card but definitely above average Championship

4. The WDR Damn your Ass so fine but what even better is that you can wrestle as well Championship

 

[TX85]

They're starting to count DVR and On Demand viewings these days too, so nobody DVR or On Demand any of the shows anymore!

They are?,I should delete TNA from it then cause it gets recorded but I haven't actually watched any episodes for months,I just delete them after each Thursday night

 

[Lobo]

I have to open my gym tomorrow at 5am, so I'm heading to sleep. I must say though that I am very much looking forward to reading an epic post from HR tomorrow, that is if the ppv hasn't deflated what little faith he had left in the WWE.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Did you hear that WWE??

Maybe you weren’t listening or maybe you don’t care, but an entire arena of rabid fans just told you to take your Wrestlemania Main Event and shove it.

Just an FYI, you may want to avoid the Internet also.

Not that you would care what you see or hear. While your complete lack of adherence to the overwhelming will of the fans was quite clear before tonight, I feel rather safe in saying that even those wearing WWE-colored glasses will be remiss to provide any sort of defense.

The 2014 Royal Rumble had its share of highly memorable moments. The Wyatt Family continues to remain one of the most intriguing groups in quite some time…Kofi Kingston dazzled as usual with his spectacular athleticism….Roman Reigns became a star.

Unfortunately, the 2014 Royal Rumble will be remembered forever for one thing. As the final clock struck zero and a legion of fans waited to explode….They didn’t….They couldn’t.

All they could do was shower boos as a walk-in touchdown was fumbled, kicked, and then defecated on…A story that has written itself for the perfect Wrestlemania 30 moment was torn to shreds.

The road to Wrestlemania began tonight and has a long way to go. Unfortunately, I might have heard enough tonight to tell me all I need to know.
