The Wrestling Thread 2017: Thanks for the great year! New Thread Open!

Big rumor going around is that after WM the ppvs will no longer be brand oriented. They will feature both raw and smackdown matches. The brands live tv and house shows will be unchanged but the ppvs will feature both brands

We’ll see. I think that’s a bad move but we’ll see.

That would defeat the entire purpose of Brands and they might as well end the Split. Which I wouldn’t mind honestly.

kurt slipped up and said the word wrestler.

oops

Hello, new quote for my signature.

[Paolochun]

Started watching Lucha Underground tonight. I think the serialized format is interesting; definitely sets it apart from what I know about other promotions. Of course, it’s always nice to see my husband JoMo back, but was he always so fond of overselling the shit out of everything? Like… honey, you got slapped in the face, you don’t need to careen out of the damn ring.

Kind of what they do there. It’s all the flippy stuff and selling magnified a bit.

Wait til you get to the really weird sci fi/gangster stuff that goes on in LU :lol:

What they need to do is not give each brand their own monthly PPV. Let Raw have one month and Smackdown the other. Combining the PPVs outside the big four is a bad move.

So basically return it to how they had it before during the first brand split?

Man just from reading the Raw results it sounds like trash.

[Geese_Pants]

I’m mad that Bray had to eat the pin…

Actually wasn’t that terrible. Sasha/Bayley, while not to the level of their previous efforts was a solid match, and the Braun/Elias segment was fucking gold. Considering Raw is usually made up 100% of crap, 85% is a step up.

[Saitsu]

And they copped the fuck out by putting both Finn and Seth in the Chamber.

im curious which caused that to happen…the wwe.com graphic design flub or the jj injury

[Geese_Pants]

So basically 3 will start in the ring this time around…

That would suck just drop it to one once a month per brand

With a dedicated big 5 with mitb becoming a joint ppv

I like the brands having their own ppv’s. I don’t watch raw outside of the good segments

Braun smashing that bass on elias’ ass was so great. See if wwe would book braun as the guy he would kill it.

I hope they have Braun win the chamber and finally beat Brock. They could do a tremendous match of Braun outpowering Brock especially if they get 10 minutes to just wreck the ring

I want a ring imploding superplex or for braun to slam brock through the ring as the finish

Just got back from RAW. It was fun. I don’t know how it came across on TV but the crowd was mostly into it. Braun got very positive reactions. Sasha got booed pretty hard b/c of Bayley being at home. Ronda Rousey announcement got a fair amount of boos.

Braun got great reactions on TV. Glad to hear from someone who was there.
