Godfrey Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 9 minutes ago, Nice Guy Eddie said: I didn't necessarily hate Rollins as champion; I like him more than most 'round these parts. I hated his booking as the Authority's puppet and chicken shit that needed J&J at ringside. His style works better as a face. I think breaking up the Shield was a mistake. They could have had them persuing singles goals, but still come together to have each other's back. If they had to be split, Roman was the one that should have turned heel. Roman as the new Corporate Champion made the most sense but I was hoping for Ambrose to be the one to turn. That was back when I thought he could pull off a Raven-esque heel character, basically what he went for this past fall but, you know, good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon-E Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 There are people who think that the Roman Reigns push is more forced than the Jeff Jarrett push from 2000 WCW but I think the Roman push at least produced better matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Great Justice Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 (edited) I will say again that IMO the right play was to send Harper down to Full Sail as the visiting ace (the Cesaro role), win the title and defend in a few classics until they had something for him, then drop it to Riddle, leaving after a few months as a reinvented and reinvigorated guy with a new wave of traveling/internet fan base hype.

Niners Fan in CT Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Has it been confirmed what year it is '86 or '89? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Bret's not wearing Pink. So probably '86. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoBaltimore Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 So I just watched the Kenny Omega documentary and I can't help but wonder if his story with Kota is one of the best wrestling stories of all time. It seems like there's some truth to it but it's amazing how they've been having this go for so long. Even with the split for AEW it fits. So long as the video is still up I can't recommend it enough. I already tagged some non-wrestling friends as I feel like they would absolutely love it. And yes I know there's talk of literally anything else but this right now. But while I'm very curious about that MacGee match I just had to get this off my chest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still possible. The International Shakeup or whatever the next draft thing is called is going to be shuffling folks to NXT, too. 15 minutes ago, For Great Justice said: Wait, I might be late to this.

AxB Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 You'll never guess who I just saw on Wrestling TV this evening (nb: Don't click if you're going to watch this week's Impact; This wasn't in the spoilers for the tapings) Spoiler Kevin FUCKING Sullivan is the King of the Undead Realm~! 2019, and he's on TV. Would not have guessed it. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 (edited) Man, I loved the Omega Man documentary (yeah it either glossed over or skipped entirely huge points in the storyline and basically was a streamlined version of the Showbuckle GL video with first-hand accounts and good production values) but holy fuck was it depressing to go from the super happy and optimistic ending of 'together we can change the world and do anything!' to... And going off of what that treacherous snake Tanahashi was saying that Kota needed to be his own man, maybe this is Kota's necessary route to reach the pinnacle like what Kenny had to do in 2014/15 and perhaps only then can Ibushi and Omega reunite as true equals on the mountaintops of their respective promotions as Golden Lovers without envy (Dave cut off, shocking I know, Garrett on a recent WOR when he was talking about the documentary and the ending with the two separated and how AEW and NJPW don't have a working agreement to say that it could possibly change by the end of the year so reading between the lines it seems like the AEW guys are feeding Dave information that sounds like it could be hopeful in outlook towards a partnership *end of run on parenthetical sentence*.). Ideally we would get that big final Ibushi/Omega match that the G1 semi-final (well deciding match) seemed to set up with both guys clearly not wanting to go all out. They kept a lot of bullets in the chamber and it seemed very reserved for a match that ended with an avalanche tiger driver. IWGP champ Ibushi vs. AEW champ Omega, 60 minute draw. Finish. *dreams* Still, the Golden Lovers storyline is the perfect example of how to keep kayfabe (gayfabe!) in 2019. Luke Harper's Twitter post is another excellent one. Blur the lines between reality and story by using real emotions when they present themselves rather than pretend they don't exist. I am so emotionally invested in what Omega and Ibushi do down the line. Edit: For those that live outside of Canada and didn't catch the YT link posted earlier.
