Wrestling: The Action Soap Opera Thread - Part 14

[The Sage]

I don't know about that Wylie. Punk's second and third reign occurred in the middle of a fantastic feud where he came out looking strong. Sheamus has looked like a chump in his reigns.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Chris Jerico as Thor...LOL!

Gold!

He was booked better against Jeff Hardy. He was the best heel in the business for two months and the best worker.

I agree, the feud with Jeff was the best Punk has been booked, although he was very even with Cena, they just never allowed that feud to grow as it should have. Every other top star feud he's had from Taker to Rey to Orton, he's carried the bulk of the build up but gotten nothing from the matches.

 

[RetroNaz]

No one watches sitcoms anymore, why would you wish that on him? At least wrestling has a (degenerate) fanbase.

Jericho would make a pretty cool character on Community. His zany sense of humor would fit in really well with that show.

Try to be honest when I ask this question: Will Jericho ever return to the WWE?

I have read his tweets but I still can't make up my mind about it.

I'm positive he'll be back, it just wont be as soon as people have lead themselves to believe. He hasn't been gone THAT long and part of why he left was that he was feeling burned out. He'll come back when he misses it enough, right now he's having fun and pursuing other interests.

Listen to this podcast, people.

If you want proof of how f***ed up WWF is behind the scenes here it is.

If you ever wanted to know if Kevin Dunn is a massive a**hole here is the proof.

true story: Vince McMahon crapped his pants, put his underpants on a stick, and chased Gerald Brisco around backstage at MSG


Kevin Kelly and Dave Lagana make great points about how midcard talent isn't being groomed and protected to step up in case the top stars get hurt or retire.

They point out when WWE lost their two top stars in Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels within a few months and how Austin, Rock, and HHH were ready to step into those spots. Or even guys like Shamrock or the NAO were at least popular.

Then they point out how if Cena and Orton go down there is really nobody that can immediately step into those spots. They're right.

 

[RetroNaz]

If he even comes back at all in a full time capacity...

I think he's passionate about wrestling and will be back someday. However I think it also depends on what kind of offers he receives . The guy is capable of more and he's confident enough to pursue it. I'd like to see him make it outside wrestling honestly but also want to see him retire from professional wrestling gracefully(much like hbk).

 

[Nemi]

As much as I love Jericho I hope he comes back whenever he wants and not a moment sooner. The WWE needs him right now but as he himself (as well as many here) that is their fault for not building stars. That's their mess not his.

No doubt. Recently I saw the Breaking the Code: Behind the walls of Chris Jericho doc. Its a fine documentary and shows how much he loves the business. I have a lot of respect for the guy and hopefully he can return soon to the ring.

I can't believe how WWE has **** on Christian, in regards to the SD taping results.

I want to see him beat up Senor Chang.

He would probably make either Troy or the Dean crap their pants.

 

[Pittman4Two]

Any guesses on when The Rock makes another appearance?

Summerslam?

Kharma Destroys Alicia Fox on SD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ho_qIGYFERA

i can see how she separated her shoulder she bumped totally wrong lol

but that was the best implant Buster yet probably because Alicia is so skinny lol

"Kharma's looking at her like she's a chicken bone"

oh booker t !!!

Re SD

Spoiler

I watched the end of it and jesus did my heart go out to Christian, I really hope this is part of a bigger storyline where Christian eventually "earns" the title back. Hopefully, they have learnt from the token title Rey got after Eddie G's death and are setting up Christian to win the title back in his own right, and away from the shadow of Edge.

 

[Nemi]

Yeah it Defenitily look like it was Alicia's fault that her shoulder got seprated. Kharma needs to have some ''at first I lol'd but then I serious'd'' gifs made for her.

He gets a rematch, and who else is Orton going to feud with?

Why do people keep referring to Rey's title run as being "token"? He was being looked at to win the title BEFORE Eddie died. I believe plans were for Eddie to become champ again and Rey was going to beat him for the title at some point.

That was hilarious, lol.

 

[Benstamania]

Yup, after watching that no way they can pin that on Kharma. Alicia just, again... botched something, this time it was how she landed.

I thought it was funny hearing the fans chant "one more time!" lol.

 

[Nemi]

I honestly think most of them are just pissed that a new person is getting so much attention and is gonna force them to do actual work in the ring.

Yup, in other news Natalia and Beth Phoenix are excited to actually be able to work...

Hey Vince, watch this episode of smackdown and try to tell me WWE is not a wrestling company. What I like about smackdown is it's a show with wrestling and wrestling based angles. You rarely get comedy skits.
