FEBRUARY WRESTLING DISCUSSION


RIPPA

Recommended Posts

considering the ratings death that keeps occurring in the 3rd hour of RAW.. if they have to hold 3 hour RAWs, maybe put the main event closer to the middle of the card and then use parts of hour 3 to announce matches for the next week, sorta like how they had to hold MSG cards to avoid the 'curfew' (or to avoid paying people overtime)

 

Then the ratings of the third hour would be Main Event ratings. They get the viewers back for the ME (if it is any good) and overrun anyway.

The WWE put this up yesterday on their Youtube page for some reason...

CM Punk greatly dislikes him?

I was a huge fan of him during the New Breed run. He fits so well in WWE because he has personality and can talk. I dont think he was as bad in the ring as people say he was.

I hated him in TNA even thought the Pope gimmick was his idea

I'm gonna trust a wrestler who has wrestled him saying Burke is the shits in the ring over some dude saying he wasn't.

Sorry.

Like maybe his shit just really fucking hurt or he didn't protect his opponent well.

He was pretty charismatic though.

If Stacy comes back, I hope they do get her onto Total Divas. Put her on and have AJ go completely insane about how someone like her is getting all the attention. I do hope that Stacy goes back to being a blonde though. In those commercials for the Super Bowl pre-concerts on VH1 she lost her lack of distinction somehow as a brunette.

He and Punk had a pretty rough match-up in ECW. Didn't click at all - a chunk of it is on an early Botchamania, I think.

 

I think it was a mixture of stiffness and a bit of sloppy work. But I really liked Burke in TNA and hope he winds up in Jarrett's... whatever it is.

Trying to find a Youtube video for zac fu's Best Wrestlemania Entrances thread, I come across Wrestlemania IV. Damn, I loved that show. I wish one year, they would do a World Title tourney like IV. Unfortunately, due to the Elimination Chamber, I don't see that as likely. That, and the whole Royal Rumble winner thing. Maybe Summerslam?

Survivor Series '98 was a good one-night title tourney as well. but i also loved the idea of WM4 when i was a kid, and still enjoy the show today.

Not sure if anyone had heard about this yet, but El Rey, the network co-owned by Robert Rodriguez and Univision is going to be bringing AAA to the channel in the back half of 2014.

It's on DirecTv and a couple of other networks.

Punk said he didn't like working with Burke mostly because he was a whiner backstage anyway, not so much being a bad worker.

It was disheartening for me to hear that because I always dug Burke. I wonder how history would have been different if he had been John Morrison's partner instead of Miz.

So basically gimmick infringement. Odd that Punk's opinion holds that much weight with you that you find it disheartening.

Not whining about creative, whining about being hurt all the time. It was a bummer to find that out about a guy I liked.

That WCW comic. I see Goldberg, Nash, Sting, Bret and......?

Benoit? Piper? Kenny Kaos? :S

 

It's Benoit.  With all of his teeth.

 

 

Wait, that's supposed to be Nash?  And here I've been trying to figure out why HHH was in a WCW comic book.

A sad night when my son asked "Dad, why are you following a porn star?" So, it is with a heavy heart that I say goodbye to @SiriPornStar :(

 

Wow.

 

He was so super creepy about her on Adam Carollas podcast, which I've posted about before.

Foley has a type, and he likes to write letters to those types.

 

He's so weird with women. Isn't his wife a legit babe too?

I figure they will, for a bit. Bring up someone from NXT to plug into Reigns' spot. Still some tread left on The Shield gimmick. I imagine they could build up to Rollins splitting in year from Ambrose after getting sick of him too. They just broke up PTP so they need to keep a tag team around.
