Wrestling Thread: Mods please close

Dirtsheets have picked up, looks like it’s the real deal. RIP

Oh damn…and this is shortly after Axl Rotten passed away too…RIP Mahoney, and RIP Hardcore Chair Swinging Freaks.

ECW guys dropping like flies.

Makes me wonder how Sabu is still alive.

I don’t want to be that guy, or sound like a giant douche, but…man, it’s crazy thinking Axl and Balls are dead, yet…Ian Rotten of all people is somehow still around.

Throw in a 30 minute time limit, totally all in

So both balls and axel are gone. I could blame their drug habits. Their hardcore wrestling style. Or their obesity.

But then the nasty boys have outlived them

Oh and don’t say he’s up in heaven. Balls was a satanist, so may he burn in hell.

At this rate by time finn gets called up, he too will be bald. He should haven’t had said “i am happy on nxt, and am focused on getting it to that next level”

Yeah, dude fucked himself. I bet vince was like,

“Oh, you’re happy there? Well then i guess that’s where you’ll stay.”

Owens has True Grit…

I’ve watched the Nakamura Zayn match over 10 times now.

Other matches I’ve repeatedly watched were Sasha vs Bayley Takeover Brooklyn, Austin vs Bret Wrestlemania 13, Angle vs Benoit Royal Rumble 2003, Hogan vs Rock Wrestlemania 18

Going to re watch Suzuki vs AJ styles from G-1 tournament as well.

I will throw you a bone

Shibata vs Nakamura g-1 '14

What’s funnier is that Cena’s account actually did retweet this. Humble.

I love how Owens continuously antagonizes everyone he comes across (with the sole exception of JBL, HHH and Jericho), in storyline he has to be the most hated wrestler on the roster by far, even Miz doesn’t antagonize as much people.

As for bringing back the open challenge they can have Cesaro win the Intercontinental Title off Miz and have him do one every week on Smackdown. Cesaro’s easily one of the best workers on the entire roster with most of WWE’s best tv matches each year involving him, it gives audiences an extra reason to watch Smackdown each week, the matches will have Mauro Ranallo/heel King commentary, it creates fresh matchups, elevates Cesaro as a face fighting champion, the IC Championship and whoever finally beats him.

For the US Championship it’s pretty early but I’d say probably the best bet would be to have Corbin win the title and move into a feud with Kalisto.

Saw this one once too. Very good.

SD! Spoilers…

[details=Spoiler]* SmackDown opens with WWE Intercontinental Champion The Miz and Maryse out for MizTV. The got really good heat to start. Zack Ryder interrupts and The Miz teased that he would give Ryder a title shot but Ryder’s already booked in a match with Baron Corbin

  • Baron Corbin got the easy win over Zack Ryder. After the match, Corbin beat Ryder down again but Dolph Ziggler made the save and they brawled

  • Emma defeated Paige in a quick match. Paige took a nasty spill in the corner but looked to be fine

  • Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady defeated The Ascension to advance in the tag team tournament. Enzo and Cass were over big time and looked awesome in the ring

  • Backstage segment with Alberto Del Rio interrupting AJ Styles

  • AJ Styles defeated Alberto Del Rio. Good match with a very hot crowd but Del Rio botched a move and Styles landed on his neck. He won with a roll-up and was holding his neck on the way to the back, hopefully just selling but it looked bad live

  • Backstage comedy segment with Fandango and The Golden Truth

  • The Vaudevillains defeated Goldust and R-Truth in a quick match to advance in the tag team tournament

  • Sami Zayn vs. Chris Jericho was a hot main event with Dean Ambrose and Kevin Owens on commentary, and providing distractions. Good action in the ring and entertaining stuff outside. Owens interfered to cause the disqualification, which led to the babyfaces standing tall to end SmackDown[/details]

So, they really did just throw Ryder a bone and sent him straight to the back of the line. How odd.

Goddammit at that first spoiler.

Fuck you, Vince.

People always bring up the Ascension when they talk about people who dicked over, but the person who took the biggest hit is Paige. Despite the fact she’s still over, and a good wrestler, she’s become the go-to jobber in the womens division.

I really think throwing corbin into an actual feud with ziggler sucks. Especially since wins over ziggler mean less than a clean pin over r-truth

You’re getting a bit ahead of yourself with the Cesaro winning the IC title talk. I’d be surprised if he took it off Miz at Payback. They could screw Cesaro to have further cement the heat for Miz so AJ Styles or Sami Zayn could take the belt off him later on in the year.

hahaha. you may have gotten Emma but you still got both hands holding onto that L, Ryder.

Woo Woo Woo! You job it!

It’s shit like what I’m reading now is why I have legit given completely up on ww"e" since wrestlemania. I never see any of this getting better. And if it’s someone good from NXT they’ll be ruined on raw or smackdown. Just so sick of it at this point I do NOT care anymore. I see no reason at all right now to get my hopes up for anything on the main roster. I don’t watch raw or smackdown at all ever. I have watched raw maybe 3 times in the past 3 years seriously. I haven’t watched smackdown period in years. It’s legit like vince wants wrestling dead.

And read the comments section as well.


yeah. i feel yah. they’ve totally ruined Big E, Rollins, Rusev, Lana, Owens, Zayn, Kalisto, Neville, the Wyatts, Sasha, Becky, Charlotte , Vaudvillains, Enzo and Cass, Crews, and Corbin by bringing them up to the main roster. :coffee:

The only people who have really truly suffered have been Emma (though it was her own fault. and she paid her dues to get back into the good graces), Tyler Breeze and the Ascension. With Paige she honestly just got lost in the shuffle but she hasn’t been buried into obscurity.

You could count Bo and Rose I guess but I don’t. They’re in a joke stable but it’s a stable thats over as fuck.
