30 mins is not an Iron Man match.

Its on a throwaway PPV and the women still don't get an hour to work with. So much for gender equality.


Re: WWE Network

Watched the Eric Bischoff documentary. Aside from the facts he was the guy that tried to put the WWE out of business as well as a horrible boss to deal with for WCW wrestlers, he's not that bad of a person.

I actually felt sorry for him having to deal with the politics with Ted Turner's corporate stooges. He probably would've had a better handle on the company if he hadn't made himself an on-air character. (A problem we have seen repeated with Dixie Carter.)


Also, every episode of RAW (aside from the 1996 NFL episode) is available to watch now!

How many title defenses did Becky actually have before losing it in all this time? Honest question. I only remember two. Last night and the screwy finish against Bliss

ONE. In Glasgow against Alexa. But even that is tainted because Alexa's foot was on the bottom rope and the ref missed it. Yes, the HEEL got screwed over in that match.

Heck Becky only had ONE clean win on TV period while champion. Against Natalya, in a non-title match, and she got beat down afterwards.

 

[Loki882]

Can we PLEASE stop this Lana/Enzo/Rusev crap, like pretty please? It's awful and is just making Enzo look like a total creep. And yet somehow, Rusev is supposed to be the heel in all of this, really? It's the crap with Dolph and Summer Rae all over again, make it stop, MAKE IT STOP!!

Of course Roman won It's not like he's holding the entire Raw midcard hostage while also pursuing the UT. Seriously, Jericho should have won.

If they have Sasha drop the belt on a PPV AGAIN, then dear lord would it be stupid (which of course is why they'll probably do it). And if Ric interferes and costs her the belt, then man would that be a huge step backwards storytelling-wise, and make Sasha look like an idiot. Also, it's the most predictable thing that they could possibly do.

 

[chamber-music]

Lana gets off on seeing Rusev beat dudes up is the subtext I get from this Enzo fiasco.

I have no idea why Roman has the U.S title still as he isn't doing much with it. At least the Miz makes the Intercontinental title relevant on Smackdown and Cena made the U.S title relevant when he held it.

Raw has most of the midcard wrestlers and they aren't even in the title picture because Roman is involved in the main event feud.

I just finished watching the TLC PPV and that match with Dean and AJ was sick! The other matches were pretty good, with the exception of Nikki Bella and Carmella. The only time the crowd woke up is when Carmella grabbed the kendo stick and everyone wanted to see Nikki get beat like a pinata. I think the heat she's drawing is from people who hate Cena, not just because she's a mediocre wrestler.
I happen to like Alexa Bliss, but the way they've handled the title run of Becky Lynch has been abysmal.

 

[Pink Ranger]

I want to see Gentlemen Jack do stuff like that, especially the human pretzel thing, to heavyweight wrestlers as well. Him embarrassing Owens or a heel Reigns (yeah, I know, never gonna happen) with his mastery of catch wrestling would be fantastic to watch.

 

[X Knight]

I've been out of the loop.

what's the deal with the Enzo/Lana/Rusev storyline?

 

[WereCoyote]

Becky Lynch's title reign:

-Wins belt in a six way match where she spends most of the time not really doing much.
-Gets challenge by Alexa and called an undeserving loser.
-Gets beaten down by Alexa.
-Gets beaten down by Alexa.
-Misses a PPV due to illness (where Alexa loses to freaking Naomi clean in like 5 minutes).
-Comes back, gets beaten down by Alexa again.
-Has ONE title defense that ends with the heel (Alexa) being the one that's screwed over.
-Gets one clean TV win, and then is beaten down by Alexa again/
-Is put through a table by Alexa and vows revenge.
-Loses the belt to Alexa not even a week after making said vow.

.

Cries like a sissy for being asked about the loss.

 

[WereCoyote]

That that was Cena's motto

I thought it was You Can't Beat Me!

The newest member of The Bullet Club is rumored to be [BLACKOUT]Cody Rhodes[/BLACKOUT]

ROH

Spoiler

My boy Kyle finally got the ROH title. I've been waiting a long time for that.

Cody had a good show at ROH, he would fit in nicely in BC.

I don't mind it. Reminds me of the Attitude Era where (insert heel Diva here) would trick Wrestler A into trying to sleep with her with Jim Ross saying "That damn jezebel!"

Only drawback is it makes Enzo looks bad since Lana's married, lol.

Oh please, like that would stop any of you. I might have even considered it, if for no other reason than to have an amusing story to base a one-act play around.

 

[aNarcHy2day]

And they did try to portray it as momentary indiscretion on his part as he wanted to leave once he was in the thick of things.

Also, and most importantly, it made Rusev out to be more of a heel in the storyline- what with tricking a man using his wife and all- something he hasn't been for a long time. He was the face in the Roman Reigns segment regardless of what the WWE wanted us to believe.

 

[LOBO3315a]

Why is AJ wearing a boot?

 

[LOBO3315a]

Shortest Dean Ambrose promo ever!

 

[SuperBatman]

Why is AJ wearing a boot?

I heard he sustained a Ankle Injury after his match with Dean.

 

[LOBO3315a]

That Ascension dipstick totally missed Zack with that leg drop.

I've been wanting O'Reilly and Cole to do great things since I saw them feuding back in 2011 and 2012. They've only gotten better since then. This show made me want to check out their next show in NYC. Felt good going back to ROH after 2 and a half years.

Cody's post match shenanigans almost overshadowed a very good match.

After that show I need to look up more Marty Scurll. He was fantastic.

 

[SuperBatman]

The Wrestling Thread just got Wyatted

 

[Dr. Evil]

So did Total Divas ever explain why Rikishi never showed up to Jey Uso's wedding to Naomi?

Scurll's been slowly creeping up my top twenty over the course of the past year and a half.
