This is revolting! Stop it! My mother watches the Wrestling Thread!

- Apparently when Sheamus Brogue kicked Dean Ambrose in the battle royal on last Monday’s RAW, that was supposed to be his heel turn. It will be interesting to see what they do with Sheamus on Monday’s RAW since a lot of fans didn’t pick up on the turn at RAW.

- It’s said that John Cena wants to work with Big E at some point, possibly after this year’s SummerSlam pay-per-view.

How does doing a move in a battle royal constitute a heel turn? Cole was "throwing shade" at Sheamus on SD tonight so I figured the heel turn was coming, it wont take much to turn the fans heavily on Sheamus as he gets quite a lot of boos already.

I'm sure Cena wants to help get his boy over and this would likely involve a Big E heel turn, but I'm honestly not sure it will work as Cena is often the hardest guy to get heat on simply as attacking him automatically gets you cheered by at least half the crowed.

Devin has a Boca Juniors shirt on, is she of Argentinian heritage?

Perhaps. There was an article about her on WWE.com that mentioned her being half Japanese and fluent in Spanish.

Also caught up with NXT. Love me some Bliss. Looking forward to the triple threat with Kidd, Breeze and Zayn even though I already know the result.

I've come to experience that even knowing the results to a match doesn't take away from its excitement if it's just that good. A false finish can still be dramatic. One of the reasons I enjoy wrestling so.

I honestly don't even know. I'll see what I can think of because there was A LOT. But I can recommend one:
Vs. Bryan Danielson vs. Nigel McGuinness vs. Claudio Castagnoli at Death Before Dishonor VI.

This was one of the few times I was truly pissed off at ROH for their booking decisions. With all they were doing with Claudio and pushing him, I felt then would have been the time to give him the belt. Looking back, I'm glad they didn't, but at that point I really wanted him to win it and run with it. The heel turn was great, though, and it showcased Black and showed he would be something special in wrestling. They just waited too long to give him the WHC in ROH.

Devin isn't a bad backstage interviewer. She's no Renee Young, but she's not bad.

Oh, definitely. It's why I've still enjoyed tuning into SD! over the years. I like knowing what to watch. It's weird, I can never NOT know the spoilers. I've seen time and time again people get upset about them (and I respect that) but for me it's made no difference. Like you said - if it lives up to the excitement.

That is an exotic mix!

I hope WWE switch things up a bit for Payback and split the Evolution/Shield feud into 3 singles matches, maybe with MITB spots on the line in each.

WWE title Buried Alive match
Daniel Bryan vs Kane

Seth Rollins vs Triple H

Roman Reigns vs Batista

Dean Ambrose vs Randy Orton

Last man standing match
John Cena vs Bray Wyatt

WWE Tag team title match
The Usos vs Harper & Rowan

Cesaro vs RVD

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I really hope tonight's ROH/NJPW iPPV turns out really well tonight. Not just on the quality of the show, but the quality of the stream as well.

The Tonight Show with Renee Young!

I want Austin or Jericho to host WWE's Tonight Show,I wonder IF Vince would host again though

Austin hosts, Jericho as band leader. Two birds, one stone (cold).

 

[H.U.S.T.L.E.]

See, that's the type of stuff that could keep Renee around and prevent her from bolting to ESPN. I'd love a "late night" type show, but I don't know that they could do it daily because really, they'd cycle through guests too quickly. Twice a week though? I bet that'd be feasible and not feel like overkill.

One of them was that girl from above with the blue highlights, Alexis Bliss....(is that her name?). Anyway, I just found that out today when checking out her Instagram page.
