For Great Justice

Man, you know, it’s almost Fall. And Orton/Revival is just oozing “heel side of a Wargames match at the Scope in 1988” right now. Like weave Colonel Parker and Bunkhouse Buck into the heel side and give New Day a partner and let’s do this.

That’s a sweet finish. They’ve come a long way.

I’m surprised by tonight’s KOTR results. I had em both wrong as I thought Ricochet/Andrade was the obvious final. Neither match was as good as last night’s pair, but neither really got the time to try. Main event stuff was interesting enough with the Bryan side of the angle but almost classic Hogan monster of the week formula (not that I’m complaining).

Corbin is solid. Corbin’s push and presentation are wretched. But he’s a big dude, can go a bit, is great at talking shit. I’m a fan. He’s unfortunately kind of the face of this boring, soulless era of Raw because of how much airtime he gets and his awful presentation, including the false promise of 10 dollar Endless Apps.

What’s the last heel turn that drew boo’s?

Not only should Bray win the title, but I think he needs to. Try shouldn’t have this gimmick lose so soon after its debut. And that gimmick is perfect for the belt as he could easily do the GMA / ESPN stuff in his lovable burgundy sweater.

Cesaro as the traveling/visiting NXT ace is just the best every time they do it.

#500 clearly should have been Invisible Stan. That’s a missed layup by PWI.

I'm a sucker for versatility so my list is composed mostly of guys that I think can do basically anything at a high level. In no order: Eddy Guerrero Randy Savage Dick Murdoch Terry Funk Vader Ric Flair Arn Anderson Dusty Rhodes Steve Austin Rick Rude

One of the best Jarrett matches I've seen that hasn't been mentioned yet is the one against Jay Lethal from TNA TV. Very good "traveling champion" style match with a great finish.

KOTR matches were all good, with Ricochet/Drew great. Good tournament so far.

Paige vs Emma is a pretty historically important match that should be viewed.

WCW Prime is such a hidden gem. Dusty totally unsupervised was a sight to behold. It was great.

How much was the plastic surgery, brother?

What an awful board to play in RISK. Cody’s Australia play is much stronger. Never pick Asia Hunter.

I’m really looking forward just to the physical act of changing the channel when one show or another is in a lull. As bad as Bischoff’s TNA was, that brief Monday night competition brought back a lot of memories and made me feel like a teenager again.

Crisis on Infinite Wyatts? They could re-do the Foley Titantron bit with the Fiend, Funhouse Bray and Carcosa Bray. ...leading to Husky Harris piledriving Baron Corbin through a table. The tank with a Ferrari engine!

Oh shit we are talking about an AKI game? I’m down with this if I get Moxley vs Powder Keg and Awesome Kong vs Saladin

That’s a sweet Beta Ray Bill shirt

I didn’t realize Roddy was a West Virginia fan

I definitely got that Benoit vibe from Buddy last night as well. I feel like the “I know this is a show but in between the ropes that dude is the best they have” spot could be his if they follow this up appropriately.

Excellent episode where everything was good. Even Orton is in one of his motivated, good phases. Thumbs up.

I was watching some stuff from last year. Is it weird that Almas’s run as champion is my favorite in the history of the show? Great matches, looked like a star, Vegas was money. Way too short a run. And I say weird because while he was my favorite title holder, and while I feel like the Gargano match was a legitimate five star classic, I feel like it was that exact match that was kind of the downfall for the whole main event scene. Like they’ve been trying to get to that level again but it’s just pure masturbatory nonsense. Compare any of Gargano’s main event matches with Almas/Black, which while having some of the go-go-go no-selling stuff at the end was still extremely good and coherent. Almas held that stuff together in a way that Gargano (and Ciampa and Cole) just can’t I think. Its time to move on from this style and have Keith Lee squash Cole for the belt or something. But yeah champion Almas was fantastic .

Hunter needs to shake it up. It would be a good time for a flash title win by a debuting hoss or something and getting away from the half hour 10.0 perfect execution main event shit.

Johnny Gargano since the Almas match is everything I hate about wrestling. Can these dudes go away and can I get Dain and Riddle killing each other for the belt please.
