This May Be Your Show, But This Is MY Wrestling Thread! - Part 242

[TheCommissioner]

random topic

I think it was this thread that someone talked about how the "Warrior Award" isn't being used as intended?

I would disagree on that

 

[aNarcHy2day]

Let me channel my many thoughts and put it as respectfully as possible.

I am professionally a doctor so I'm definitely not making light of an undoubtedly positive news of a man showing signs of recovery from a potentially permanently debilitating injury. Also, what happened with Honma was indeed a freak injury, quite like the many you have listed and my comment was not directed at that injury but Shibata's. I quite possibly should have edited the quote down to your last statement and to that extent, I'm sorry.

Talking of which, as far as Shibata is concerned, I disagree with the notion that 'only' he is to blame for what happened. Especially now with where concussion research is, Japanese promotions in general haven't done nearly enough to limit the use of extraordinarily stiff styles which if anything are being eulogised and actively promoted. What happened with Shibata is a natural consequence of that escalation.

"used misinformation to try and politicize it into a criticism of a company"- Hopefully, the irony of that statement isn't lost on you.

Spoiler on how the House of Horrors is going to start:

Spoiler

As noted, the "House of Horrors" match between Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton will start in an actual house before ending up in the ring. PWInsider reports that ten minutes of footage at the house was filmed, which includes Orton arriving to the house in a limousine.

It was noted that Orton and Wyatt battle in different rooms in the house, and one of the rooms has kids dolls hanging from the ceiling. The brawl ends up in the kitchen, with Bray trapping Orton and taking off in the limousine, which is where they would go to the ring.

I really hope WWE starts naming all their ppv's after songs from the fifties and sixties.

I want a PPV called "WWE Monster Mash" and it better have this song:

Sam Roberts......sigh.

Ill say I like that they've gone "outside" for these kickoff shows, but I prefer Rosenberg - he seems to handle himself better in that environment

WWE Great Balls of Fire is in my hometown.

Tired of Enzo and Cass vs. the Club. I am picking the Club so that they can make the Hardy's "obsolete."

Is that a roided out Howard Stern in the front row?

 

[DarthSkywalker]

That Finn/Miz segment was pretty good.

Every Episode Of The Wrestling Thread Ends The Same Way.

 

[aNarcHy2day]

The Miz TV segment should have been tomorrow on RAW. It was pretty good.

Also, this crowd is bonkers.

Lite Brite Scarf!

 

[Broseph44]

Two Canadians fighting it out for the U.S title.

 

[Serpico Jones]

Booker T is horrible.

 

[Broseph44]

I'm waiting for more PPV's named after songs. Can't wait for the February Valentine's Day ppv, WWE's I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That).

 

[LOBO3315a]

Jericho with another US Championship!

 

[Broseph44]

Drink it in Smackdown, you've got a new United States Champion

 

[aNarcHy2day]

HOLY *****! JERICHO WON!!!

Whoever booked that match deserves a promotion. Such good storytelling!

 

[LOBO3315a]

Austin Aries' jacket is made from untreated alpaca hair.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Booker T is horrible.

You just noticed this?

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Honestly confused by the finish of the last match. I don't hate it, I am just confused.
