JULY 2018 WRESTLING DISCUSSION.


Recommended Posts

I thought that the white strap was cool and different for awhile, kinda like Warrior sporting the classic IC title with the yellow strap, but it wore off for me after not too long. I ultimately prefer the black strap in the long run. 

I know that it's tacky as hell and y'all gone laugh at me, but of all the non-black straps for the IC title, I loved Goldust's gold strap the best:

WWE might have just saved me some money.  I could have seen a couple friends wanting to go to the Boston PPV.  

I went up to the house show in Bridgeport, CT last weekend, not sure where in CT you are but it was a pretty decently fun show

I wish they'd just give Goldie a big storyline already. Vince loves to suck off the Attitude Era and its stars; here they have one who can still actually go, and is always popular when given something to do, and they treat him like a jobber.

Is he done after this?

I thought about going to that what was the card? We usually go to most events around here if we can, I'll probably go to the next RAW that comes through.

I tired to hang in with this to find out why Big Cass was fired and after about 5 minutes when I had learned nothing but how a general makes his bed and something about medals and so I fast forwarded a few minutes and I learned about putting on a suit and tie for a wedding and then I fast forwarded a few minutes and he was talking about how great Big Cass was. WTF BOOKER IS GOING ON IN YOUR BRAIN???????

The oval IC belt is way better.

The current one reeks of the 80s, and the 80s sucks.

The worst take I've seen in a long time.

Gotta love how opinions can be considered "bad takes" and "petulant arguing" just because the majority here think otherwise. I think the IC title you guys are talking about is ugly as hell. I like the oval IC belt better. Who cares? The 80s was a horrible time for music, TV, movies and wrestling. Hey, look, an opinion that not everyone shares but I definitely believe it.

I'll go watch some 70s lucha now (so I can fall asleep immediately).

It was perfect for his character but anyone else wearing that would've looked wrong. It's crazy going back and looking at Goldust before they had to put the brakes on and cool the character off, what a heat magnet

tl;dr version: If you think that’s a bad take, here’s one that’s even worse!

I like that building a lot more than when they run up at the casino. It was a decent little Raw show. It was pretty similar to the MSG card which I couldn't make it to NYC for unfortunately, but no Taker obviously.

Hardy/Wyatt vs Axel/Dallas vs Titus/Apollo for the tags

Alexander vs Murphy for the CW

Mojo vs Roode

Alexa/Mickie/Alicia/Liv/Logan vs Ronda/Nia/Nattie/Bayley/Ember

Lucha House Party vs Gulak/Kendrick/Gallagher

Dolph/Rollins/Balor for the IC

Braun/Roman/Lashley vs Owens/Elias/Corbin

Definitely far from a sellout but the roof blew off for Ronda and Roman, with some boos peppered in for the latter.

I'm gonna be honest, I have a soft spot in my heart for when the gold strap kinda faded to brown when Ahmed Johnson had it. I think mainly because the toy IC belt I had at the time was on a brown foam strap so it kinda lined up better with what lil boy me saw on TV

He was great when he got mixed up in the Bray/Finn feud. I think they tested out giving him a bigger push with the TV match vs Cena, but they did not have any chemistry and I think that was it for him getting a look.

Ok i'm going to make a crazy fantasy booking no way it will come true prediction ... Goldust wins the Rumble, beats at AJ at Mania (I have AJ holding the title till Mania 35) winning the title getting his Wrestlemania moment then BOOM! Braun cashes in, fucks Goldust up something fierce just running shoulder tackles and powerslams for like 5 minutes then Braun pins Goldust and thats the last we see of Goldust.

Dustin Rhodes would have won a world title if Bischoff didn't get the chance to lead WCW, and it would have been pretty fuckin' sweet. 

Not saying that it would have led to a better future for WCW or that Bischoff's WCW wasn't interesting itself. Just saying Dustin Rhodes winning the WCW Heavyweight Championship would have been great. In that alternate timeline, instead of talking about Austin/McMahon being one of the greatest long-running feuds of all-time, niche wrestling enthusiast boards like this one would be talking about Austin/Rhodes being one of the greatest long-running feuds of all-time.
