Ziggy Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 If CM Punk followed AJ and Daniels ect in '04 and stayed with TNA instead of being an ROH guy, would it had took him as long as Danielson or Joe did to get signed to WWE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motherfucker you literally just typed out the thing you said in relation to the spat right before typing out that bullshit above. Bix, who tried to dunk on Graves, gets owned and acts all shook in response. Enough so that he typed out a whole article about it. To be fair, he didn’t type out a whole article. At least half of it was copied and pasted Twitter posts from that Fightful editor. Bix should have credited him on the byline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances are, THAT was a neckbeard. (For the record, my previous post was more of a Mr Wrestling II joke than anything else. No insult intended.) (Unless you wear a Bullet Club shirt outside of the confines of a wrestling show. Then yeah, that was a shot.) Purely my opinion, but I think part of the popularity of their merch might stem from the fact that, like the original NWO, it doesn't necessarily look like a wrestling shirt. I could totally see someone like my dad wanting one just because he likes the aesthetic of guns and skulls and shit. I probably wouldn't be embarrassed to wear it out in public if I had one as versus some of the more loud colored kid oriented WWE shirts.

I think he would have ended up in the WWE maybe around 2010-2011 if he stayed in TNA and tried to be a company guy there. I can't imagine Punk being dumb enough to stay in TNA once Hogan arrived.

paintedbynumbers Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 my friend wore a bullet club shirt in Weirton, WV (home of Big Bully Busick) and this was a few days after the Florida school shootings. An older man approached him and asked him if he was supporting gun violence. Once my friend explained the shirt meaning the guy was ok. Even backwoods WV has morals.

GuerrillaMonsoon Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 You know what has aged well? Triple H going over Sting at Mania. If you condition fans to expect that the only time anyone gets their comeuppance over the Authority is Wrestlemania, sometimes they gotta go over too. And sure, Rollins nearly crippling Sting probably helps add to that too..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuerrillaMonsoon Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I would have been partial to the NWO coming out....and turning on Sting, only for DDP, Booker and Goldberg to come out and lay waste/chase everyone off. If you're really going to book a clusterfuck... Although motorised wheelchair loaded forearm would have been cool too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While in symbolic terms, there is something wrong with the NWO saving Sting, kayfabe-wise, Sting had long ago made peace with at least Nash and Hogan. And Hall was always a walk-behinder. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(BP) Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 In a vacuum it's kind of dumb, but Sting/Hogan is one of the only things TNA actually did right as far as storytelling, so I'd say with that continuity added to the tapestry of Sting/NWO it makes more sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't paying attention to wrestling around about that time They booked Sting/Hunter, which was no ones idea of a dream match, and there weren't any expectations of it being a technical classic. They had one of the funniest matches ever on a major card, beginning with Sting randomly coming out to an Asian gong/drum/bell/string orchestra and Trips doing a Terminator entrance complete with Arnold (with CGI Termimator Face) introduction. They have a fine match until they reach the final stretch, when DX comes out to interfere on Hunter's behalf and the NWO runs out for the save for Sting. There's a big schmozz, and when it looks like Sting has the upper hand, HBK runs in with a super kick and Hunter brains him with the sledgehammer for the winner. Then afterwards, Sting and Hunter do the respect handshake even though one just attempted to murder the other with a construction tool. DX and NWO are now obstensibly cool with each other. I'm an unapologetic fan of how stupid it is because I laughed my ass off the entire time and it didn't do anything to really hurt either guy or the show (in my opinion.)

BurningBeard Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Oh sorry, I meant in TNA haha. Was Hogan coming in why he went a bit Joker-esque? The thing that stuck in my craw about the WM match was everything Sting was afraid would happen when he went to WWE happened. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing that stuck in my craw about the WM match was everything Sting was afraid would happen when he went to WWE happened. That's okay, I can go on and on about that too. Everything around it is terrible TNA faction stuff, but at its core they got a year out of the program by having Sting act like the heel who was really justified in his actions because he knew Hogan was a piece of shit. Then they turned Hogan and Sting was revealed to be right the entire time and they got a year of build out of it before they had a match. It showed surprising restraint and narrative complexity for TNA booking. It used all of the previous NWO history well, and was in keeping with Hogan's reputation for bleeding companies dry and Sting's history of being pushed too far until he snaps and behaving like a character from whatever the most recent comic book movie he'd seen. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
