The WRASSLIN’ Thread

Ricochet gotta chill with all those flips before he kills himself

Kudos to WWE for doing a blood spot last night. Doesn’t matter that it’s fake, they need blood to enhance some big stories.

Agree-added to the shock value. Too bad it was so absurdly fake. It was running down the girls chin like she was funneling it.

I think Brock has been great recently, this run is much better than his last run.

I agree with what Cena said about him, except for him being the best ever. But he's right about him being great, selling when he needs to and getting guys over when he needs to.

Too many stories of unprofessionalism the last few years on his part for me to be a fan.

No kudos at all. That was just terrible. Lol

Like what?

I didn't know Jimmy Hart was behind some of the entrance music.

Agree that was terrible, but the fact that they put “blood” on screen is good. Blood is needed at the right times.

Anybody watching Takeover Portland? The 1st match has been a doozy.

 

[headhunter15]

Just watched the first episode of Ruthless Aggression on the WWENetwork. Man, I forgot how much of a transitional time WWE was going through in 2002. I loved the Ruthless Aggression Era!

Too be honest, I’ve been watching AEW more in the last couple of months. Seems like NXT still focuses too much on work rate. Have the stories been there lately?

Yep, I could watch them wrestle each other every night. That flip to between the desks was nuts.

Jimmy Hart has done everything from having the #1 pop song to wrestling manager to producer. He's got a neat story.

Guys thier size shouldn't be able to do what those two can. I don't think they've had a match that wasn't great.

I've been watching both. AEW does seen to put more into the story side. But the matches at Takeover are the best in the buisness.

Agreed. That Takeover: New Orleans is one of my favorite shows ever.

That women's match was pretty good until the end.....wtf was that??

Not the most well executed swerve for sure.

Did you think the other girl was Sonya Deville at first too?

I didn't know who she was. I only vaguely know now.

This Cole/Ciampa match is crazy

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

Didn't expect that

 

[JCHateSteve]

Didn't expect that

Now that's how you execute a swerve.

 

[crusse10]

When Johnny grabbed the belt, I was quietly shouting to hit him with the belt. Didn't feel like a swerve to me. Dude just lost clean after giving it his all, while still not feeling he can fully trust his old friend who turned on him. Seemed like the perfect time to turn Johnny in such a way that occupies 2 main eventers during Mania season and freeing Cole and Balor to feud.
