  1. Bill Burr on Inoki beating the fuck out of some goon. From the Monday Morning Podcast
  2. Rollins' injury meant WWE flew in Ambrose and KO to main event at Birmingham last night. Awesome match. Ambrose was way more over than anyone else there. New Day ran second. Also was really surprised at the number of little girls who love all the good guys but when it comes to the divas, they only have love for Team Bella.
  3. So I just came across Dinner for 3 with The New Day on the Network....these guys are amazing.
  4. "Post-kayfabe world": quote of the thread lol. If something doesn't have internal logic then it begins to fall down, you can't go breaking the 4th wall and not expect it to have an impact on how seriously your characters and story-lines are taken. As someone who doesn't follow NXT weekly, all I had to go on was the preview video: in which Bailey was beaten by Charlotte, cheap shot by the irish lass and battered by Sasha. None of what you mention regarding Sasha Bankes has been shown on Raw or on this Takeover show, either in the match or in the promo video. The only 4 horsewomen I've seen mentioned on WWE programming has been Rousey's crew at Wrestlemania. Maybe all of what you mentioned was there, but then again you do have a tendency to force square pegs through round holes a lot of the time.
  5. Detracted from the match-up, big style for me. A proper WTF moment
  6. The women's match was awesome but the fuck was up with that love-in afterwards though? The announcers had just spent the match telling us how much Sasha hates Bailey, Sasha insults Bailey during the match then they stand together hugging it out and basically curtain calling it up afterwards lol. Detracted from a really good match up imo.
  7. GLORY GLORY BROCK LESNAR AND THE BEAST GOES MARCHING ON OI OI!
  8. I made the mistake of picking this up on PS3....completely unplayable. Loading every time you access the map/menus, graphical glitches galore, sound and image doesn't sink in any of the little cut scenes before you take on an orc captain, laggy as fuck. This sucks. I'm thinking I should've popped for the PC version even though I barely hit the minimum system requirements, at least it would have been playable.
  9. Way to keep in with the spirit of my post. Of course your literalism is an attempt to avoid the thrust of the argument isn't it? Or maybe you're just one of those guys who counts out every single grain when he buys a bag of rice. Either way let's give you the benefit of the doubt and examine your post through your own literalist myopic lens: Jon Moxley has, in fact, worked ROH. Now suck on that. Literally.
  10. "Way to know what gets people over": not that I care about any behind the scenes machinations but the funny thing is those three you mentioned are fucking over. So what's your point you buffoon (that'll be a rhetorical question because really your point is your favourites aren't winning and so you're throwing the toys out your pram) I noticed how you didn't mention someone like Roman Reigns in your initial statement about an up and comer that comes short in the main event, but that's because Roman Reigns isn't one of your ROH indy darlings. Lol get the fuck out of here, son.
  11. Rollins is the WWE Champion Ambrose ended up walking away while Big Show lay in the dirt Owens massacred Cena on his first night on Raw. You muppet.
  12. Erm... because he's the Goddamn Undertaker? And because we all know Undertaker a tough undead sumbitch? It would be great if he were a swarmy heel. But for your A-Typical lone wolf action hero type the WWE wants him to be not so much. Yes because then Phantom Lord could cheer for him. Cheer...for the....heel.....??
  13. Great interview. WWE needs to cut some deal with Podcast One or something to film Austin, Jericho et al. Easy, original and entertaining Network content No he didn't. Everyone knows Punk is an abrasive petulant shithead.
  14. HUH WHAT...Nah Vince NXT is still like it was when you killed ECW. You remember how good that felt right? What the fuck is wrong with you
  15. So Big Show beating the snot out of Reigns was awesome. Can we talk some about that
  16. I think the RAW thread post count speaks for itself: the Authority is best for business
  17. Don't start with this show. I mean, it's amazing. But start from the last Takeover and see the build-up of everything to the pay-off. I don't think it would work as well as a standalone thing. I haven't watched any NXT since the second Arrival and this worked plenty good for me. All the packages told me everything I needed to know (Otami getting battered 2 on 1 til his friend joins him, Neville winning via questionable means, etc). Show was awesome.
  18. All these people who don't wanna see Austin whoop some ass....what you'd rather have Rusev? Reigns? Orton? Rollins? looooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
  19. I thought the finish was great: 1/ Cena is still a viable opponent for Brock down the line and we'll get another awesome Brock/Cena match out of this 2/ Brock keeps his title and credibility, he kicked out of 2 AA's on the count of 1. Not beyond the realm of possibility that he wasn#t beat, especially with JBL screaming at the end that he's still standing and not human 3/ The Authority sent Rollins down to protect their pick but didn't count on him having the balls and gumption to cash in on Brock, possibly causing Brock to turn on the guys that anointed him and throwing another dynamic in the title picture 4/ The closer Rollins gets to the title....the closer Ambrose gets there....
  20. Why? He unexpectedly beat them both up last week and they were prepared and got the drop on him this time round
  21. You see the problem here is you are projecting the persona you are trying to portray on this board onto others. The snarkiness began with you posting that condescending "WOW!" comment followed by your second comment too, as if you are a barometer of taste. Again you resort to your high horse and misinterpret simple communication in this quoted post. You have no idea what I've watched or what my likes and dislikes are, or how much spare time I have to engage in an activity to satisfy a narcissistic member on a pro wrestling message board. You could have stopped a second, stepped back and chose to engage in normative human conversation. But then you wouldn't be a dickhead.
  22. Grow a thicker skin, son. It's a serious question. Sorry if it doesn't sit well with you but CM Punk was heralded as influenced by this guy's style, which even includes nicking his finisher. I'm not a CM Punk fan, I tried to get into puro in the past and couldn't (incl. ROH's tribute act to the superior Japanese sport), and I have limited time, so is it really worth wasting my time watching something I probably won't enjoy?
