  1. Thanks for posting this. Disheartening to see how many people are just back to business as usual while this hangs over the company.
  2. Gee, I hope one of my favourite wrestlers gets implicated in rape and sex trafficking allegations, then maybe I can score some of that sweet discounted merch. Seriously, fuck this company.
  3. I love Bret, I truly do. And I largely agree with what he's saying. But it's funny to me that he's always the one saying it.
  4. I know this has come up a few times before, but what are some of the best acting performances by wrestlers, specifically in feature films? I'm hoping for some nice deep cuts along with the obligatory Andre, Piper, Funk praise.
  5. This was the first wrestling I've watched of any kind since I think Forbidden Door, so maybe I was just really hungry for wrestling, but I thought this show was absolutely fantastic. The only matches I didn't really care for were the 4-way tag (do we really need the Bucks challenging for, and probably winning, the belts again?), the Jericho 6-man and the FTR tag. I love FTR but they just don't work as well as babyfaces to me. Everything else I loved. The atmosphere around the Swerve/Hangman match elevated it so much and both guys are great anyway. Danielson/ZSJ lived up to the hype moreso than the Danielson/Okada match (probably because Okada just isn't actually that good) and was my match of the night. I was proper bummed out when it ended as I easily could have gone for 10 or so more minutes of that. Christian/Darby was nutso in the best possible way. Darby really is a madman and that second stair bump was uncomfortable to watch but I love heels attacking babyfaces while they're on stretchers so I was laughing out loud at that. I do wonder why Sting took so long to go out there though. As for Adam, even though I haven't been interested in anything he's done for a good long while, and I acknowledge he's been pretty lame for the longest time (at least since that feud with Kane where he murdered Paul Bearer), I still like the guy and marked out for his debut. I do think he can bring value if used correctly, and this just seem like a good way to start. I enjoyed everything else to varying degrees with a special shoutout to Stat and Julia, and overall this was a really enjoyable viewing experience after some pretty profound modern wrestling malaise.
  6. Do either of you realise how fucking pathetic you come off?
  7. Nope, he came off the bench against Arsenal. Rice's shot deflected in off him.
  8. Danielson has shown pretty consistently that he thinks his injury history is fair game for use as a storytelling tool in his matches. I kinda think we just have to accept that as a possibility when watching his matches. Given how obsessed with wrestling he seems to be, I doubt he sees anything as too sacred to be used for pops or sympathy.
  9. What are you talking about? He was a heel in '97 against righteous babyface Bret.
  10. They had a lame Elite-adjacent heel win the Owen last year. Let's do something different this time.
  11. Really terrible news. Rest in peace and my condolences to all of Dean's friends and family.
  12. Funnily enough, I haven't seen any Julia Hart stuff since she joined the House of Black, so since her entrance was getting bigged up, I jumped onto youtube this morning to check it out. I was enjoying it, but then when the camera zoomed in on her for her close-up, JR cuts in with "she's a mysterious, beautiful jezebel", and I just had to laugh. I tend to cut him more slack than he probably deserves but that snippet was all the criticisms against him writ large.
  13. Like with all things, context matters. How old was the kid? Why did MJF pick that kid in particular? Was there an interaction between them before the drink was thrown? I don't remember all this hubbub when Sasha was messing with Izzy. Most people thought that was the coolest shit ever actually (and yes, I realise on paper that MJF went further).
  14. Yeah, I don't really mind Big Bill. I just think the Firm are one of the worst things in the company and don't really deserve to be rewarded. I mean, Rush could murder OC and transition the belt to Starks, having better matches while a shitty faction looks on along the way. Or if it has to be a big boy, throw Lance Archer a bone.
