Overly Critical Man Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Bryan's gonna end up taking another two years off while he regrows his chest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I will say I've never seen a guy live who's chops were as loud as Strong's. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireThunder Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I missed the chop fest when I had to pick my son up from school, so I also joked that the WWE had apparently signed WALTER. DAMN. No matter the opportunity, whenever the WWE asks Strong to do something, he not only obliges but he finds a way to look great while doing it. It was a fun show. The cruiserweight title match was really good, they had their working boots on tonight and Kalisto ate the Lumbar Check like a man. AJ vs Nakamura does work much better when there's a good heel/face motivation rather than "let's have a dream match". The ending sucked, but it insures that AJ's balls aren't safe until Backlash. Poor Finn not only gets put through the ringer during the ladder match, he gets busted open by the belt accidentally when Rollins pulls it down. My favorite part of the rumble that I saw live: Owens freaking out when Jericho walked out. CONTINUITY~! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HumanChessgame Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 1 hour ago, Nice Guy Eddie said: CM Punk always said Roderick Strong had "freaky retard strength". I don't care how many people call him Roddy on this board, it's Roderick. The first matches of Roddy's that really impressed me were when he faced Samoa Joe a few times in IWA-MS in 04 or 05. He was throwing Joe around like he was a cruiserweight. Pretty sure he hit some of his backbreaker variations on Abyss in ROH around that same time too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And someone confusedly sent Roddy Strong a plane ticket. I could see Bryan requesting to have Strong in there to work will I'm sure he has enough pull by now especially since they want him to resign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Dan Matha being in this seems like the biggest WTF to me. Was he on this card so Jinder's bacne doesn't look so bad in comparison? I can't even think of the last time he was on NXT tv. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC, it was getting destroyed in a Joe run in during Joe's feud with Balor. He and Tucker Knight helped with the tryout - that is why they were both in it (and why Otis was nowhere to be found) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offspring515 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I have never been a big Impact watcher, but since coming back Lashley has almost dropped everyone he tries that stalling suplex on. I know calling Cass a piece of shit is fun, but since Bobby couldn’t really handle doing that move to Sami or Elias idk why he’d even try it on Cass.

I do feel bad for Roman because Vince shotgunned his push, fucked it up, kept fucking it up and now he's at a point where it'll be hard to recover. Meanwhile there's a few avenues for Roman to really rehab himself and none of them are even realistic because they're not going to release this guy and he's not going to get significant time off. How long is Roman's contract? He might not want to re-sign. Right now I would have Joe choke him out at Backlash, not let go, Reigns wins via DQ due to Joe not letting go of the Kokina Clutch but Reigns is now out of action for awhile due to injuries suffered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 The face of a man who has seen himself at age 50 walking out onto the convention floor to total silence...he gently sighs, stumbles, flails his arms, smashes his forehead onto a card table. He stands up smiling to a smattering of applause and one guy yelling "You still got it Titus!" He knows he will eat tonight. Not well, but enough to sustain him. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that means Titus now believes he's Italian and we get the return of Little Guido and the FBI, I'm all for it. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
