The only wrestler with neutrality is Cesaro.

And you thought Shane hanging out with Raven decades ago was a bad decision

I want Julius smokes in WWE plx and ty

From the new WON So cue up the rumors that Stokely Hathaway has signed with WWE again

Neutral Guy Eddie might work in NXT, but they’ll just screw it up on the main roster. For some reason, this made me think of No Way Jose. Is he injured? Or just the next person Drake Maverick sees untapped potential in?

You should have seen the trunk of Hayes car. "We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... and also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of Budweiser, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can."

You act like Action Bronson commentating a wrestling show while stoned out of his mind wouldn't be something Viceland would put on their station.

When you see it...

Cross posted from the Walking Dead thread?

They'll cut his balls off by re-debuting him as Neutered Guy Eddie.

If that happens, the NWA should be burnt to the ground. What a goddamn stupid move that would be. Literally the only time Corgan's NWA felt like it had any momentum has been every single day when Aldis didn't have the belt. If Cody is only a short-term champ, they need to find someone else to hold the title.

We should have a generator where people can just insert “will be ruined” after any NXT name is mentioned. That would streamline the whole process entirely and maybe we could get into talking about NXT as it’s own product and not who is going to be “ruined” when they are called up.

Naaah, I wouldn’t let it get that far. The logical end for the show would be the first PPV as a testament to all the deals and ducking diving Giamatti pulled off to get it that far, and then as the crowd cheers and the first wrestlers go out to kick off the show we fade to a graphic like on the last episode of Quantum Leap that just says “Paul Heyman never paid his wrestlers...”

A gritty Hoodslam type promotion I think would do well on Viceland. I'm surprised no one has tried to get a wrestling program on Viceland yet.

Its a good day when you watch the MX title win over Arm and Tully on a big screen in Philly with Cornette doing commentary.

To the surprise of no one the Marko Stunt/Bryan Alvarez match is official Black Label Pro - Nov 3

That is her too, "it was a different season.." I just wish she kept the Winter theme music, that was greatness.

Correct

As it should be

I almost feel bad telling you that Kenneth Cameron went on to become Bram. No-one deserves to becomes Bram. Loving this thread BTW, the early days of NXT are a fascinating period.

You guessed it... Frank Stallone

They’ve got your nose?

What a bunch of masochists you lot are to not watch films because one of the actors in them did bad things. Imagine never watching Chinatown, the greatest noir of all time, ever again because Polanski is a creep. What a miserable outlook. It's not like those films are indicative or symptomatic projections of the things he is alleged to have done. If you implemented this outlook wholesale, you'd be left with a lot of thumb twiddling and not a lot of entertainment at your disposal, believe me. I remember a friend of mine getting shit off others in our group because he still listened to Lost Prophets after all that came out in the wash about the singer a few years ago, but his retort was that he could simply separate the artists from the art. And I respected that, but insisted the band still sucked.

What the fuck? I haven't been looking forward to a Marvel book this much in a long time.

I lost interest in Jessica Jones 2 about halfway through when there still hadn't been a villain established. I stopped watching Punisher before the first episode was done. It took me two months to finish the first two episodes of Luke Cage 2, as well. But I just finished watching the episode where they're hiding in the Rand pharmaceutical building and I'm all in. Misty Knight is the coolest and sexiest character on TV.

Oh, c'mon. That shit was funny.

He wasn't? Kidding aside, I was partial to Shiro, since the end of 08th he and Aina pretty much said fuck it, called bullshit on the whole war, and walked away. But 08th might be my favorite Gundam.

Give PS a break. At least he wore his formal fanny pack.

I’d watch that

Oh my goodness. A Paul Heyman biopic starring Paul Giamatti where some of the final scenes are Giamatti doing the whole, "THE RRRREIGNING, DEFENDING, BEAST INCARNATE, BrrrrrrrrrrrrrOCK...LEEEESSSSNAAAAR!

Check this out:

I now want Tyler Breeze and Luke Harper to bump into each other backstage at NXT and form an odd couple tag team. Harper teaches Breeze to be more vicious while Breeze gives Harper fashion tips. I’m thinking they get each boa covered bludgeons as gifts. Breeze gets Harper a feather boa covered one, and Harper gets Breeze a boa constrictor covered one.

So Katarina is the allegedly incestuous Katie Lea Burchill but not, presumably, the drug-raping lesbian vampire Winter. Good to know.

I'm way too bothered with the fact that there's no way all those candles would have blown out like that ... Just finished Season 2 of Ozark and I'll just echo that it was really good. I thought it dragged a bit the first half of the season but really got going towards the end. I would watch the shit out of a Langmore's spin-off series.

It bothered me during the ROH/CZW angle that Claudio turned on ROH to side with Chris Hero and CZW. He should have been neutral.

You clearly underestimate the pettiness of the WWE.

Why the fuck does this always have to be out of spite? Is there any good reason to keep a record on someone you aren't currently promoting who also hates you and your company?

I never got the sense Punk and Bryan were super close. Fans always linked them based on where they came from, but they never struck me as buddies. Just peers and coworkers.

Well that's a reasonable response that in no way makes you look like a dick.

Two cracking photos:

Charlotte earned a higher rank by losing twice to Carmela and then being out hurt? Balderdash!

If Becky Lynch doesn't win, we riot!

You just believe everything Heenan says. Kazarian and Daniels were both pretty dull as dishwater for ages (except when Daniels was Curry Man, when he'd suddenly become far more animated; Curry Man's mask was more expressive than Daniels' actual face). But then when they started teaming with another, suddenly they stopped being Johnny Kickpads #1 & #2, and became entertaining characters. The Clair Lynch angle should have been shit, but it was actually ace because Daniels and Kaz took so much piss out of it. Lets go Old-School DVDVR Board: CONTENT~! MEDIOCRE WRESTLERS: BEST: Kurt Angle. He's had loads of good matches. But really, he's only had two matches, he just had both of them a whole bunch of times. There's his Undertaker match, which he's had with Kane, Big Show, Abyss and basically anyone who's over 6'5". Then there's his Benoit match, which he has with everyone else. So even though he's good, you don't actually need to watch his stuff at all. WORST: Big Daddy. Two moves of doom. The Belly butt and the Belly Flop. Ever see a guy go a whole match without even using his arms? Now you can. MOST OVERRATED: Triple H. An extremely pedestrian Wrestler who somehow got given the gimmick of being a really good worker. A man who's talent limits him to ten or fifteen good minutes, but somehow kept get booked in hour-long epics. The 'technical marvel' who only starts comebacks with low blows. MOST UNDERRATED: Terry Taylor, evidently.

This past Monday Drake should absolutely not be wearing swat gear. He should be wearing a suit with an AoP monogram on the jacket with an AoP pocket square. Mr. Fuji didn't wear Demolition's S&M ring gear, and we should all be thankful for that.
