The Wrestling Thread v. TLC delivers

Shamrock was awesome. At least, my childlike way of watching wrestling compared to the memory I have of Shamrock was awesome. Guy scared the shit out of me. Crazy white guy just waiting to ankle lock people.

Not to mention that whenever he got someone in the Ankle Lock, he legitimately looked like a psychopath who wanted to rip their foot off and put it on his mantle.

Shamrock was that dude back then. Remember when he saved Steph from The Ministry? LOL.

I’d pay to see Jeff Jarrett beat Davey Richards in an MMA style match.

Dig dig dig dig dig diggy dog!

I remember there was something like a blood version of the game and one without it too I think.

[The_Electrifying_One]

so what happened to Hayden is he banned or quit SRK or what?

[Tien_Gouki]

He got banned by I think Mr. Wizard about being outspoken on the “premium” member stuff on SRK here. Something like that if I remember right.

Hmm…is anybody else thinking Mod in the Bank Ladder Match?

[AYO]

I think that would only work if a McRib is in the briefcase.

[toddler316]

Lol I think we all miss stu and he and I argued so much he had me on ignore for a year once, it was awesome I out trolled the miz.

Moving on no one shall ever speak ill of the mexicools intro out was the best intro of all time.
Racist was that shaka zulu gimmick tony atlus did.
Racist was kdoggs whole wcw run.

Also props to Gp for making a new one I was considering it but I troll myself into near ban fairly often
And you guys put more discussion in for the big shows then I do.

True about Sheamus the Henry feud was unfinished to me they could have continued with it.

I was hoping for this feud to resume after Henry was done with Show. I thought they left it unfinished so Sheamus would challenge him for the title

on 2nd January Stuart Hayden will return to claim what is rightfully his…

this thread

[nothing]

I used to make these thread before Stu and Y2Jay would make them before I did, it is just a tradition that eventually someone else starts making the threads.

Watched Final Battle last night my thoughts:

TJP vs Elgin was an okay opening match. A few botched spots, a few sloppy spots but not terrible. TJP looks like a spot monkey who actually has wrestling ability.

Jimmy Rave vs That one guy from the Embassy. That alone should tell you how memorable that match was. Rave loses in a not a very good match to be quite honest.

Triple Threat Match for TV Title: Again decent match nothing special, a few amazing high spots but alot of just what seemed like wasted space where nothing was really going on. Generico did great though.

Special Challenge match again was okay. I am just not a big Roddy fan, I still think he is more of a tag team guy. Him going over Hero just makes no sense to me.

Tag Team Gauntlet was actually pretty good. Sure the Young Bucks were doing there FLIPS AND SHIT, but they really impressed me with their heel tendencies. By the time the match was over I actually found myself hating them in a good way and was like yeah there pretty good. I feel bad for ANX though, they really should have had the belts by now.

Briscoes vs WGTT was a really good match. WGTT came in the faces and left the heels. Shelton did a good job of selling his ribs. The Briscoes went over but it did not make WGTT look weak at all. I really do not expect this rivalry to be over with anytime soon(Not counting one of them getting signed to WWE of course).

Steen vs Corino was match of the night easily. Yeah it was a hardcore match but it was a well done hardcore match that told a good story. Some sick spots like Corino hitting Steen with a Northern Lights Bomb through the chairs. Steen hitting the Package Piledriver through chairs. Then Steen hitting Jacobs with the Package Piledriver and doing the same to Generico through a table. The reception when Generico and Steen faced off was huge.

Richards vs Edwards III was an awful match, just plain awful. The first 15 min or so were actually really good. There was alot of solid submission wrestling with some suplexs outside the ring spots mixed in. Then they went into MMA mode and it went into super ass mode. The last 30 min was just them kicking each other then getting Fighting Spirit for the 27th time that match and kicking out/Hulking Up. It was really fucking lame and Steen came out after it was over and shitted on it, basically saying what everyone was thinking. If they would have just done what they did the first 15 min, the match would have been amazing. I am completely over the whole Fighting Spirit thing. There is absolutely a time and place for it but man ROH and certain Japanese Promotions really over do it. By the time you have seen it for the literally 7th time in the same match, its dead and lost all its purpose. It seems like they do not even think about the psychology of the match and just go lets do all this shit because it sounds good.

I’m pretty much on par with your thoughts, except that I didn’t really care for the tag match. That pre-match beat down WGTT gave the Briscoes was way too long. It was longer than the actual match itself, and I thought it was kind of an overkill to turn WGTT heel.

Davey/Edwards started off fine, but then in typical fashion they just go into no-sell mode, and the matches quickly become laughable. There’s no pacing, or really any story-telling taking place, and the just turns into two guys taking turns dropping each other on their heads.

Anyway, anyone legitimately hyped for the big 01/02 thing on RAW tonight? I wish I were, but I don’t really care about either of the two most plausible characters. Jericho just doesn’t do it for me anymore, at least not that suit-wearing slow-talking Chris Jericho. And Undertaker just isn’t a guy I care to see show up for three months, get his 'Mania match, and then go back into cryogentic stasis to preserve his body for next year.

I think I’ll actually be more disappointed if it’s Jericho, just because he’s been doing the deny, deny, deny spiel on Twitter.

[jae_hoon]

Jericho always does the deny deal, part of what killed his last return is Steph being so pissed off people knew it was Jericho. She pushed his return back to convince people it wasn’t Jericho.

I was on a WWE hiatus when that was going on. Maybe Jericho’s smart enough to play off the fans that remember that happening and he really won’t be on RAW tonight.

I’m a little curious about what they’re going to do with Clay. It’d be interesting if Laurinaitus had a little faction going, then Clay could turn on them for having his debut pushed back so many times, and start working his way through the group one wrestler at a time. I haven’t seen enough of Clay in the ring to really form an opinion. I thought he was supposed to be some sort of super-sized Taz, throwing a bunch of suplexes, but what I’ve seen has been pretty basic and his finisher was some shitty looking running crossbody that doesn’t seem to fit him well at all.

lol i remember when ytwojay made the thread. thats when i first started posting in the wrestling thread. then i stopped posting for hella years lol

Brodious Clay is the next monster heel for Cena to pull out Overcome The Odds with.

[hybreezy]

I thought this too but with Sheamus winning the rumble. Then again that might have made too much sense so they scrapped it.

You think so? I’ve got the feeling that it’s going to be a situation of Clay being pissed at Laurinaitis for putting off his debut.

Anyway, they need to have Brodus win an impromptu King of the Ring tourney so he can get himself a crown. That would complete his look.

Nah he will not be at least not right away, after WM maybe. Clay will be a heel when he gets in and will not go against Laurinaitis.
