Wrestling Thread, Not Only Are You Next...You're Last! - Part 233

JAMES ELLSWORTH Vs Aj Styles for the WWE title next tuesday was announce on talking smack

 

[TX85]

Dean Ambrose better not get involved until after the match. Just have AJ hit the styles clash on that alien roadkill within the first few seconds for the pin and then AJ can Brawl with Ambrose.

D-Bry and Shane better not make any big weird stipulation either.

 

[Serpico Jones]

Are James Ellsworth and the Spirit Squad signed with the WWE officially?

God I hope not.

 

[TX85]

I wouldn't mind Kenny and Mikey being signed but they really need a repackage. Kenny can go back to Kenny Dykstra

Nancy Grace walked out of the Sam Roberts show during her interview over how she conducted herself on the negative piece she did on The Ultimate Warrior following his passing. Karma's a b*tch huh?

I couldn't believe her lack of professionalism that night. I wasn't shocked because I was a Warrior fan (I never have been, actually) or because I felt that pro wrestling is unfairly criticized for some instances of enabling/encouraging risky behavior. The problematic part of that show for me was how little she knew about her subject matter. She obviously didn't know who the Ultimate Warrior was and she had a similar lack of familiarity with DDP. How could anyone value her opinion when she didn't take the time to do her homework?

Just caught it there, nice to see she was on the receiving end of a "set up" for once.

Nancy Grace had a habit on her show of bringing guest on, and then arguing with, bullying, being rude to, dismissing the opinions, etc those who didn't agree with her (usually defense attorneys BTW). On one occasion as I recall, she had the mic of one of her guests cut off for "dodging the issue," even though he was trying to answer her and give his POV, and she kept interrupting him. And her coverage of the Duke Lacrosse Case was, not great (and she's never apologize for it that I know of).

So if you're looking for "fair and objective," don't go to her.

Paige looks fine in that pic. She just looks like she went a little overboard with the make-up and caked it on.

 

[SpideyVille]

She looks more colorful lol (and no that wasn't a race joke)

 

[TX85]

I would have Alberto's Joker smile too

 

[WereCoyote]

Nikki won because of her new show, lol.

hmmm, I thought she won because Cena agreed to eat the pin, and she followed his match so they could go shower together on his bus and leave for a dinner date.

[TX85]

I love that he actually did that pretty fluidly

Yeah I've seen that and other matches of Hogan in Japan, If only he was allowed to wrestle like that in wwf by vince. Hogan was actually a decent wrestler but of course vince would water people down even back then.

It was a necessary evil to ensure longevity.

 

[Tacit Ronin]

And the wrestling culture in Japan would force you to step your game up.

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

Love those gifs. I saw a press conference from this era a while back where Hogan called the WWF title a toy and the IWGP Heavyweight belt a real championship.

 

[Dr. Evil]

So if Ronda Rousey loses to Amanda Nunes at UFC 207, does that mean that the WWE would be interested?

 

[TX85]

Why would it mean that?

 

[Dr. Evil]

Why would it mean that?

Because there have been rumors that the WWE has interest in her for WM 33 in a match.
