Wrestling Thread: Mods please close

and now he’s cancer in the business. :how_interesting: :triumph:

I kid. I kid. I legti didn’t know that about Ryder and that’s fucking amazing. Cancer is and always will be a fucking shit disease. I saw it slowly kill my cousin who meant the world to me.

I just find the random resurgance of ryder love very fanboy train and obnoxious. From the time of his burial by the trio of Kane/Cena/Rosa Mendez (or whoever the fuck it was) up until about a month ago, literally NO ONE cared about him until his WM “moment”. Which honestly that wasn’t even built up as a moment until commentary was trying to shove it down the audiences throat.

The most utterance about him was every groaning at him and Mojo being teamed together than slowly coming around when they actually played well off eachother but still found them insufferable over all.

now everyone rides his jock like he’s the next coming of mid-card christ.

I await the reign of Alexa Bliss.

Hell…I’d mark out off a future Alexa Bliss/ Nikki Storm feud.

#awkwardboner

Lmao @ that Drake face in the background. Razor boards got nothing on the evil bitch version of Alexa Bliss, I tell ya.

he’s wanting in on that choking action, i bet.

FUCK VINCE MCMAHON.

For the record, most of us have always supported Ryder since the Internet Champion days. We just all gave up hope of ever seeing him on TV ever again…

Then they give us the feel good WM moment, and snatch it right back less than 24 hours later.

I am actually okay with this…

no reason not to be. a spring and late summer program involving 3 talents female wrestlers* (grain of salt for charlotte. she’s good but refuses to sell for some reason) with THE BOSS getting the title at one of the big 4? Totes OK with it. Summerslam wins can mean more than WM wins when they’re booked right.

The zack ryder stuff is leading to hype bros

You know hype bros will be over.

Zack being a huge muscled up guy makes his run weird

He has the look

Strowman and Rowan with rocking chair bray as the hype man could still work

I could get behind the wyatts destroying all tag teams

Yeah I don’t see why I have to constantly talk about Ryder to be a fan of his, already do that in IRC.

I like that Women’s title idea, gives Natalya, who is an awesome worker in her own right, some PPV matches against the up and comer before Sasha comes back with the Thunder.

Finally I’m excited about this division.

They’re going to try and get a repeat of the excellent NXT Title Charlotte vs Natalya match. Not enough people saw it because it was the real early days of NXT, but it was an outstanding match.

hopefully it’ll be like the first one where nattie carries her like a baby through the entire match.

They have had About 4 matches already, with one of them on a ppv already

Unless the next one is ric flair in a cage, or 2/3 falls i fail to see how they can get it to that next level

Cesaro needs to go back to

So apparently during the Shane vs. Vince match at WM17 the original plan was to have the WCW roster that were in attendance get involved…that is until Stasiak spoiled that angle on a radio show a few days prior.

Would something like this have made a difference today with how social media has become commonplace?

Why not both at the same time?

C’mon that’s not necessary, Charlotte is more than capable of keeping up with natti at this point.

Catching nxt.
Poor Tessa got tullys jaw.

So read somewhere that they were planning to break up the LON soon.

Which is great because the faction was irrelevant from the word GO.

God I hope they don’t do wrong with Rusev and continue to push Del Rio and Sheamus over him. WWE needs more credible singles heels, right now there’s Owens, Jericho and Corbin (who just started) and that’s about it. Rusev has shown that he’s a great promo, he can go in the ring and he looks like a beast, get that man a spot as a heel main eventer.

Charlotte’s been solid as of late and she gels brilliantly with Nattie. Should be a solid feud, albeit a predictable one.

Or maybe, just maybe, she wasn’t actually that good to start and y’all just overrated her on the sole fact that she wasn’t Brie/Cameron/Eva/Etc.

10000x this and I’d agree. It seems like this is possibly true, too, since the Rusev hasn’t taken as many pins/looked as bad as Sheamus/Barrett/Del Rio.

Rusev and Lana need to reunite and he needs to target the IC (or US) Championship. Personally, I would rather see him go after the IC Title for 2 reasons. One, if Cesaro wins it from The Miz, that would be a seriously great feud that we haven’t seen at all. Cesaro and Rusev is money. Orrr…if the Miz retains the IC Title, could you imagine the promos between The Miz and Maryse and Lana and Rusev?
