(BP) Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 If that's the Christian match I'm thinking of, I remember it having the distinction of being the only 2000s Shawn match I can recall where he does his entire comeback formula and doesn't get cutoff after doing the Sweet Chin Music stomp.

Captain Kronos Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 I have been - and will continue to be - pro-Bliss. But looking again at that MITB ladder match more unemotionally, I have to say she did not look good. I'd go so far as to say she was the worst woman in the match. Becky definitely came out of it looking the best and with the most crowd support. Next I would say I liked Lana. Anyway, putting this comment here to say that not all Alexa Bliss fans are raving sycophants. (though you wouldn't know it on twitter - those kids are crazy!)

I think she's a good heel even if sometimes it's pretty clear she doesn't want to take a bump. Also, the being afraid to take a bump thing is a recent thing because she wasn't always like that. Anyway, yeah, I'm right there with you in thinking that MitB should have been Becky's night. That said, now Becky has the dreaded veteran's support (not to be confused with veteran presence) since a bunch of dudes like Austin, Edge, and others have said they need to go with Becky, which means she'll just get buried now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetrolCB Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Yeah, I mean, in theory it would actually be pretty decent. But the match itself is like, 5 minutes long and pretty shitty. The best part about the match was when PWI made a big deal about how he almost won the belt. Which is around the time I was about to completely fall over onto the “this is fake” side of the fence. When I saw that issue, I was like, “Wait a minute, what’s this shit!?”. I mean, I didn’t actually say that, but I mean, in reality, that was my reaction. Oh, to be 11 and give a shit about stuff like that. Back to that DVD; I may be in the minority, but for a guy who had such a great career, with cameras tracking pretty much his every move in the ring, that match listing is pretty fucking lousy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still reading the article, but I had to share this paragraph: Quote Ask around and you discover that wrestling quickly transcends a job, serving for competitors as something of a Buddhist metaphor. You're a player in a story whose outcome you have no control over; one day you're the windshield, the next you're the bug. Your mission is to make the most of what you're given. To say wrestling is a joke is to miss the point. Life is a joke, and wrestling -- equal parts soap opera, kabuki theater and morality play -- is simply a way to revel in the interlaced absurdity and stubborn charm of life. The ring one of the few places on earth where no matter how glaringly human you act, no matter if you're a winner or a loser, people will still love you. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
