Skelemania

I'm more excited for Wrestle Kingdom than I am for Christmas. I hope my expectations aren't too high.

Maybe...he's just The Game and y'all are playing it. Ever think of that, huh? Marks.

RIP wrestling thread.

I wouldn't. If you've seen a Road Warriors promo, you've seen the Ascension promos. "Tell 'em, Hawk!" "WELL..."

HOW!? As much wrestling as you watch & talk about & you've never seen anything by Kevin Steen, one of the most talked about Independent wrestlers in literally years? What bubble are you in, exactly? You're ON the internet!

Show was incredible. I'm on a high right now. Wish I always felt like this after a wrestling show. It's been a long time. That's the fun I remember that I used to have watching pro-wrestling. Great, great show.

I would rather see The Rock Vs. Rusev than Cena Vs. Rusev. Playing off of their past interaction.

1-hour Iron Man Match: Roman Reigns (winner of Rumble, eliminated 25 people) Vs. The Big Show. Special guest referee Corporate Kane. Ring announcer: Jamie Noble. TimeKeeper: Joey Mercury. Outside Ring Enforcer: Seth Rollins. If The Big Show gets a fall, The Authority (Triple H & Stephanie McMahon) are reinstated. Jerry Lawler, JBL & Michael Cole calling the match, full blast, in surround sound. ALL THE BUYS~! Give the WWE Universe what they want! Grab the brass ring! WWE App! WWE Network! $9.99! Longest reigning weekly episodic show in television history! VINTAGE! VINTAGE! They're his Fireflies, Maggle! The World's Largest Athlete! SUPERMAN PUNCH! SUPERMAN PUNCH! No one else does that 'cause no one else can, Maggle!

I think the new logo looks fine. I think moving to Friday night is fine. If you put out a show that people want to see, regardless of which night of the week you're on, people will see it. I agree that dropping the TNA acronym altogether would be best. It was always cheesy.

Roman Reigns coming out to Kriss Kross for entrance music would get me to mark more for him, probably. How high? Real high.

HE CALLS THEM HIS FIREFLIES!!

Too much even-stevens booking is the downfall of a lot of the roster. No one ever looks strong if you win one week but lose the next. Wins & losses do matter.

Trailer looks jank. Movie looks like nothing more than a cash grab to me. And it'll succeed because of the name.

But when has AJ been rational with her emotions? Isn't that what makes her a heel? Or at best, a tweener?

I actually didn't know that AJ was supposed to be a babyface. Nor should she be surprised that Brie distracted her in the match...a week after AJ kicked her in the stomach & hit her with a DDT.

I know! As much as she's on the road, there's no way she's a good cook.

The live coverage of Ferguson, after the announcement of no indictment, leading to rioting -- including tear gas, vadalism & looting -- has been infinitely more entertaining than RAW could have ever hoped to have been. Did anyone on RAW get hit with tear gas on live TV? Because they did on CNN!

They could bring back Ric Flair (or use Triple H) and have them as the manager in each corner for a younger wrestler, or in a tag match. I would much prefer that at this point than watching Triple H Vs. Sting. Even though I still think that Triple H can go. Seth Rollins w/ Triple H Vs. Someone w/ Sting has more appeal to me. Maybe Dolph?

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!!"

Main event was great & really delivered plus will make people want to watch RAW. Rest of the show was pretty bad. Some of it was even downright terrible. Bunny wrestling? Awful. Diva SS match? Completely horrendous on a monumental level. But the main event & Sting debuting is all people will remember from the show.

Sting, Orton, Reigns & heel Cena, all for free!!! Yeah, not really buying it all either. I figure it's just people stirring up shit to get people talking so there's more last minute anticipation & social media rumblings before the show.

I'll admit that those Juggalo shows are awful but the ICP pay the Legends really well from what I have heard, so that's pretty cool. Also, the commentary on the Stranglemania shows was hilarious to me.

Triple H, Jake "The Snake" Roberts, The Brainbusters & random Stevie Ray. SLAP JACKS FOR EVERYBODY! This got me to thinking, if I could make a Survivor Series team, who I would put on it. Definitely Stan Hansen!

Lucha Underground Episode #4 thoughts: • The opening with the band was clowning. • Sexy Star stinks. I think she has been on every episode so far and she's just not any good. At all. Not even a little bit. She was definitely out worked by Ivalissa. Best thing Star has done so far was take a chair shot from Chavo. She is the pits. • Vampiro still stinks. No one has talked to him about the "brother" thing yet? I am not sure how many episodes are taped already & in the can but hopefully this get resolved. • I don't speak Spanish so the addition of subtitled in-ring promos is not a positive for me. Minor complaint. • Fenix Vs. Pentagon, Jr. was a cool display of athletic spots but nothing really more than that. Didn't come close to the 3-way from last week, unfortunately. This match felt overly choreographed & like they frequently had to slow down to let the other guy catch up with his next strike attempt or whatever. Didn't do it for me. The "wow factor" was gone from most of the more unique spots as we already saw them last week. Pentagon, Jr's shoulder wasn't even close to being down during the pinfall. • I want to see Prince Puma Vs. Fenix. Is that going to happen? • Nice fuckin' deer head lolololol • Drago has a really cool look. Cuervo had a sick dropkick. Great pinfall by Drago at the end. • Is Big Ryck's gimmick that he's a pro-wrestling Suge Knight? Ha! Striker even mentioned it. Main event wasn't really anything good but we knew it wouldn't be when they told us Big Ryck was going to be in it to close the show last week. The cut to the Puma ghetto beating in the locker room was unexpected as was a table spot.
