Damn, why did you have to remind me of that?

I had to not look at the screen while that was in the GLOW documentary on Netflix because I remember how horrific it was.

I can only imagine how much Breezango and Ascension might be able to get out of these things if they ever actually got to be on stage.

WWE may as well just have them do a travelling stage show. Can't be worse than their films.

I'd actually book Jinder over AJ at Clash of Champions to offer Jinder's naysayers a piping hot cup of shut the fuck up

Hire this man, please.

Liv also looked lost out there, hopefully she just had nerves.

 

It's possible she had nerves, but it's also possible she looked lost out there because she's terrible in the ring.

Also tired of the Jinder pile-on. That bump was clearly on the Singh Brother trying to do a crazy flip bump instead of the normal way to take the move.

May I ask how that would shut Jinder's naysayers up? Not trying to be snarky for a change, but what did Jinder show during his reign that made you believe he should have another title reign?

He didn't crumble under pressure.

I mean that's a pretty big requirement for a champ. Especially someone given a mega push from a jobber to the stars position.

Dude carries himself far more like a champ than he did before.

I mean I think we all give him credit for trying and not giving up, but he's still not, y'know, GOOD. At all.

That's how I feel.

I would love nothing more than for Jinder to come back and be able to deliver above average main event matches with guys who aren't AJ because that's all he would need to do to be a worthy champion. Oh, and no more "rook" promos, but I don't think that's on him.

[Craig H]

Jinder still fucking sucks.

I must be the only person who likes the Punjabi Prison match. It wasn't technically good but it was my kinda late WCW mess.

Not at all, as an old NWA and FMW fan, you can have lots of things that aren't technically "good" that are still a blast (in the case of FMW, literally) to watch. There is nothing technically proficient about Mr. Pogo carving Tarzan Goto up with a sickle, but it is great theater. 

[Curt McGirt]

I fucking KNEW Dango was coming back for the hat, and lo and behold

After these finally fizzle out (hopefully never) we need someone to make a supercut of all of them and put it on Youtube. 

[odessasteps]

Is this how the Ascension comes back with one of their Southpaw gimmicks?

I wonder if Naomi is legit injured since she got booked to be stretchered out.? 

 

She is

Wow. How old must the Dusek Brothers be by now?

Late 00 WCW was my jam. Fat Chick Thrilla Mile Awesome Aweaoke Bombing ICP on an ambulance then realising ICP were sliding off said ambulance and trying to grab him before that could happen is one of my fave Nitro moments. 

On topic, Jinder is so 2000 WCW. 

[Greggulator]

Jinder is such a great heat magnet. They're giving a guy who smarks universally hate -- roided up, came up in the WWE's system and has no indie cred, "eh" in terms of ring work -- a huge push. It's working in terms of angering the people who make the most noise at events, but the network, etc. Is it a draw or not? I don't really care one way or the other. But it has been a while since there has been a person who is hated this much.

More than not, I hated 2000 WCW.

I have to admit that I'm enjoying Jinder more and more just because he irritates certain people so much. Certainly not the first time that Vince has presented us with a roid-monkey with limited ring ability as the champion. Come  to think of it, I liked Superst*r Billy Graham too...
