had to go out so i'm dvr'ing smackdown but there was very loud boos/heel heat for rollins in smackdown's opening segment

Swagger works well with Zeb Coulter, but a Biff Tannen gimmick would have been better.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

He already had a Biff Tannen and it was Ryback doing that stupid bully gimmick.

Getting a "Media not found" error on the network.

I was getting this same message about two or three months ago when I would log into the WWE Network using Internet Explorer but had no problems with it on Firefox. But now when even I try to watch videos on the WWE Network or even You Tube using Firefox in full screen mode it constantly wants to freeze up but works fine on Internet Explorer.

I hope the reports about Danial Bryan aren't true. Danial Bryan and The Shield and the main reasons I stuck with the WWE after CM Punk left. As for Seth Rollins turning on The Shield that just sucked. It literally left me speechless. And if it was really done as nothing more than a ratings booster they better come up with a great story line and not just your run of the mill I'm tired of being in the shadows type story line.

My thoughts on The Shield member looks post Shield are:
Seth Rollins
While He can pull off the wrestling trunks but I think he should go with tights if they can come up with an interesting design. But I'm not really familiar enough with any of his past ring attire to give any reall ideas for a design.

Dean Ambrose
I got nothing when it comes to Ambrose other than maybe some kind of street clothes look.

Roman Reigns
Stick with the Swat/BDU look except expand into camo BDUs and any color Swat style vest that will go with what ever camo, black or even Navy blue pants he's wearing. The only colors pants I don't see Reigns wearing are Olive Drab or solid Tan. Not only would this keep his look interesting but allow for more toy merch and gaming options. I'm sure they could figure out a few more mech options considering all of the different looks Reigns could end up having.

def putting my poster of the year vote down for you nolan this year

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I'm like Chris Jericho or Prince Devitt. Only thing I regret is that I can't watch myself doing what I do best. I'd vote for me too.

Watching the latest Dragon Gate event. I have no idea what to think of Hollywood Stalker Ichikawa or YosukeSanta Maria.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

It's safe to assume these 6 will join AJ Styles in this year's G1 Climax. GET HYPED!!

I will miss NXT crowds trolling Bo Dallas

How many heels can generate so much heat that the crowd starts a "let's go this guy" chant for a random jobber

Rumor has it there's going to be 15 more spots to be filled for the G1 this year. I wonder who they're going to be? One of, if not, both, Young Bucks? David Boy Smith Jr.? Will Ishii grace his presence this year? Karl Anderson? Will Honma and/or Iizuka be in it this year? All I know for sure is the G1 is the best tournament for wrestling in the world today and this year's should know doubt feature some incredible matches.

15 more names? Are they increasing the number this year past 20 and are the six on the poster confirmed already then?

If they're keeping it at 20, I'd assume we'd probably be getting the following: Styles, Okada, Tanahashi, Nakamura, Makabe, Goto, Naito, Ishii, Shibata, Suzuki, Ibushi, Archer, Smith Jr., Anderson, Gallows, Fale, Takahashi, Tonga, Kojima, Yano.

Of that list, I'd imagine that Tonga is the most likely to not be involved, but it seems that he's found a decent niche. That lineup might be a little heavy on Bullet Club members, but they're all getting decent opportunities at the moment so it wouldn't shock me to see them all involved.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I would assume those 6 names are involved with Styles. The rumor is that they're increasing it past 20.

 

[cabel]

More than 20? Just how long do they expect a good climax to last?

 

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

Ah I see, so it might be 22 then. Have they added an extra day to the tournament? Because if they keep the current format with an A & B block, with 11 competitors on each side that's 10 matches prior to the finals.

Jeez... I love wrestling and last year's G1 was amazing, but these guys are already killing themselves over a 9-day schedule. Do they really need more?

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I'm still going with Ishii to win. At least that's my early pick.

 

[Dr. Evil]

He already had a Biff Tannen and it was Ryback doing that stupid bully gimmick.

Yes but he wasn't Biff Tannen. He didn't call anybody butt heads or made like a tree and got out of there.

Dirty deeds indeed Mr. Ambrose!
