You Know What, Wrestling Thread? You're On The List! - Part 232

[Tacit Ronin]

Do you think, a decade down the line, we will see Okada in WWE?

I'd there's a decent chance.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Okada has said he'll never go to the WWE.

Okada has said he'll never go to the WWE.

People say a lot of things.

 

[Loki882]

Yeah people say a lot of things in the moment. But time, has a tendency to change one's perspective on certain things. Heck I never thought that we'd see Bret Hart, Bruno Sammartino, and Warrior more or less bury the hatchet with WWE (and Bret with Shawn Michaels). If that can happen, the Okada in the WWE years down the road isn't impossible imo.

I'm not saying that it definitely WILL happen mind you, just that it might. I mean did you ever expect to see Shinsuke Nakamura and AJ Styles in a WWE ring, let alone as champions before it happened?

he's going, it may be only for a year, but I think he'll go

RAINMAKER!!!!!

I have always thought that AJ Styles would end up in the WWE eventually, but I didn't think his run in the WWE was going to be anything close to what we are seeing now.

I was re-watching some of the CWC last night, and I was wondering, what was everyone's favorite match here? A lot of great matches, but I think my favorite ended up being Ibushi vs. Kendrick.

 

[TheCommissioner]

probably Alexander vs Ibushi or Rich Swann vs TJ Perkins

Lesnar defeated Orton in like 5 minutes last night in Chicago, but according to people in attendance, the rematch was better than SummerSlam since it was more back and forth action instead of a complete squash.




I'm not expecting much tonight at Clash of THE Champions (I used to be a WCW guy), but Reigns Vs. Rusev will be fun to watch,

 

[The Chris]

I still have a massive softspot for Gargano vs Ciampa and Alexander vs Ibushi personally.

 

[Wylie Times]

I have a question about the Rock's film career:

- We know that the guy is a box office draw in the United States, but what is his popularity overseas? Does the overseas crowd who watch major movies consider him still a pro wrestler? Or an actor now? I think the Europeans see him as an actor now but what about the rest of the world? Is he considered an overseas draw in the movies like he was in WWE?

Some of his movies actually draw bigger numbers overseas than they do in the U.S..

 

[DarthSkywalker]

probably Alexander vs Ibushi or Rich Swann vs TJ Perkins

Great choices.

I found Ibushi's matches to all be great. Actually kind of broke my heart when he lost.

I'm not expecting much tonight at Clash of THE Champions (I used to be a WCW guy), but Reigns Vs. Rusev will be fun to watch,

Owens vs. Rollins, Jericho vs. Zayn, Perkins vs. Kendrick, Charlotte vs. Banks vs. Bayley... only excited for Reigns vs. Rusev.

 

[Loki882]

On paper, the card is actually pretty stacked. But the buildup to most of the matches has been, not great overall. So we'll see if it comes together tonight or not?

Rusev & Reigns have good chemistry. Its hard to find that with big men. Perkins Vs. Kendrick will steal the show.

Unlike Smackdown, I don't expect RAW to deliver.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Not expecting any "moments" tonight like we saw at Backlash. At Backlash, we saw two champions crowned who a lot us had doubts that the WWE would actually pull the trigger on in Becky and AJ Styles.....but the WWE pulled it off. There will not be any of that tonight. I like Bayley, but it's too soon to have her moment.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I love Rusev, but I don't find much to like about how they build his matches with Roman.

 

[NDX]

I need Rusev to destroy Reigns tonight.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I need Rusev to destroy Reigns tonight.

I'd enjoy that. Immensely.

 

[TheCommissioner]

get him Rusev

do it for your lovely wife

 

[Wheels]

Captain New Japan joined The Bullet Club. Hahahahahahahaha........Hahahahahahaha.

 

[Slushy]

I need Rusev to destroy Reigns tonight.

By all rights, Reigns should be crushed. He made it personal.

 

[Pink Ranger]

I'll be flipping between this and the Fox Sunday lineup tonight.
