Jax has the charisma of Eric Watts, the workrate of Khali, and the mic skills of Shelton Benjamin.

There is no way Ambrose and HHH aren't related.

otherstar · 01-28-2019, 07:41 PM

Are they trying to turn Nia into Chyna by having her fight the men?

Sassy Squatch · 01-28-2019, 08:04 PM

Goddamn they're doing Kurt dirty.

otherstar · 01-28-2019, 08:40 PM

I didn't like that finish much myself.

The WWE is boring, there is no way around that. But they've cultivate to 95% of fans that they are the only wrestling game in town.

Competing with them is near impossible.

Pillman was God. He swerved three promotions into paying him all at the same time, got a guaranteed contract from Vince, was so good on the mic that he got ECW guys to boo the shit out of him after he began a promo tearing apart Bischoff, and was one of the best American cruiserweights of the early-mid 90s. Unfortunately, that car wreck destroyed his ankle and he came back too soon, which exacerbated a painkiller addiction that helped stop his heart.

He was every bit the total package as almost anyone that ever worked for that company.

That promo was ****ing legendary...the way he turned on the ECW asshole fans and started calling them marks still makes me LOL.

Top 5 promo for sure for me.

Is it me or do the women have better matches and more fully developed characters than the men on WWE these days?

Not just you.

I didn't think so. The segment with Roussy and Lynch was the highlight of the show so far (and RAW hasn't been all that bad tonight).

Ambrose gone after Wrestlemania.

Swanman · 01-29-2019, 09:14 AM

AEW just signed an indie wrestler named Jungle Boy, who made his name in some small indies as well as one of Joey Janela's show. What is interesting is that he is the son of Luke Perry.

On the latest BTE Omega's phone was counting down to the Double or Nothing rally so if there was any doubt left (there shouldn't have been) you can forget it.

For anyone who is a long time fan who remembers the 80s and 90s and early 00's, what they do now is a exercise in frustration but basically here's what happened.

They through all of those era's always had one if not a couple of guys who had a rocket ship attached to them as the guy of the company. They decided they were not promoting that way anymore, now the star is the WWE brand. They have spent basically 20 years cultivating no other wrestling game matters but them, they make more money today than they did during the attitude era..even with less fans they figured out how to play that game.

But here is why it changed, #1 they were not happy when the Rock decided he didn't wanna wrestle anymore. That was irritating but nothing that really changed the directive of how they do things....then after him you have the last 2 guys they really did the mega push for...

Cena, who basically assured them by sucking their dicks every 5 minutes he would never leave, which to his credit he didn't. Cena is basically their wet dream, a popular dude that carries the company and never takes off.

But the one that really soured them on mega pushes and why you don't see them anymore was Lesnar. When they pushed him to the moon as the next big star of the company and he just basically took his ball and went home, that killed it for everyone else.

After Lesnar no one ever got a monster push again, even Reigns for all the bitching takes way more losses and competitive matches than any of their other big pushed guys in the past ever did.

They decided after that they would never be held hostage to a talent ****ing them over when they have no one else to compete with so the brand is the star.

All of their major problems lie in the fact that the man the show is booked for is 72 years old and completely out of touch.
