While funny, the timing of it all doesn't sound right. Pretty sure they spilt in the Attitude era when Brock was a teenager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the quote from mero on jrs pod: “We were still married at the time, but we weren’t really seeing…I don’t know, it was falling apart. I remember calling her and her not answering the phone and I’d get very upset…Here I am assuming she was seeing another wrestler. I remember thinking ‘when I find out who this guy is, I’m gonna beat the tar out of him.’ When I found out it was Brock Lesnar, it gives forgiveness a whole new meaning.” 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point exactly as no one ever accused AJ of being particularly wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The site I was looking at made it look like it was only $48 and up. Makes sense. You going to the Peg show? I was on ticketmaster site yesterday and they still had pairs of $20 seats in Abbotsford... Winnipeg show is on Super Bowl Sunday afternoon, and I have a bowling tournament that day, so I am taking a pass this time around. It will be interesting to see what they draw. Last time they were here Jericho main evented, and they drew at least 7,000, which is pretty good for their house shows these days, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteCarl Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I recently paid $105 for a front row ticket to a house show. Never been front row to a WWE show before, so I figured the cost was worth the treat to myself. I wouldn't have even gone to the house show, though, if front row wasn't available. That seat being available is what sold it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why on earth is WWE charging a hair under $50 for house show tickets as the cheapest option? I'm guessing they figure only hardcores will go, so charge as much as possible? I'm tempted to go, just so I can see AJ Styles but that's a decent chunk for shitty seats at a house show. I certainly don't remember spending near that 3 years ago when I last went. Granted, this is in Canada, so it's probably some lint and pocket change in yankee dollars. Fifteen bucks last time I went. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerome Miller Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I watched WWE for the first time in a year last night on the HULU repeat of RAW, simply because I wanted to see Chris Jericho win a title belt. At one point, Roman Reigns Irish Whipped Jericho and Owens into opposite turnbuckles and this is what his move-set consisted of: - running clothesline into a corner - running clothesline into the opposite corner - Samoan Drop - clothesline - missed jumping punch - jumping punch That was Reigns' repetoire of moves. You go from Omega-Okada to Reigns' punching and kicking everyone and is it any wonder why he gets shit on. It's almost as if Misawa-Kobashi 1/3/03 never existed.

zev Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 A match on RAW featured punches and clotheslines? By first time watching WWE in a year, did you mean first time watching RAW ever?

Spritenaut 32 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Has Meltzer said anything about the Emmalina hype videos on Raw? Like, why they've been doing this stuff for months on end? (Emma was cleared to wrestle months ago). I assume it's some sort of troll job and, when she does debut, she'll be humiliated somehow, the announcers will crap on the gimmick, and the whole thing will be forgotten. Hope I'm wrong, but this seems like some sort of gag Vince is running for his own amusement, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgundy LaRue Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Eva Marie is doing quite a few movies and is signed to the Rock's production company IIRC. Chances are, she's not in a hurry to come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
