  1. Just a thought, whenever we as fans talk about giving people the book, we usually go to the older names, the cornettes, the j.r.s, etc.

    whatever you can say about Tony khan, he is (1)a new mind for booking and (2)much younger then the establishment of bookers. He’s not perfect but has a long time ahead of him to keep getting better. We need more like this. Is there anyone out there who we can look for helping bring wrestling forward? Get new fresh ideas?

    I’m such a baby, but I had tears in my eyes for Punk’s entrance. His entrance at ROH Reborn in Chicago was one of the most epic things I ever got to experience live (shoutout to @Gorman for his ring announcing) and that includes going to two Wrestlemanias and who knows how many classic Raws I got to experience in Chicago or Indy (I was there for the episode where Kane set JR on fire!). I will always remember the thundering sound of pounding on the ROH signs and being someone who got to do that at ringside. It kinda bummed me out that Orlando didn’t really seem to get the gravity of Punk's classic entrance.

     Oh, rest of the show was outstanding. LET’S GO EDDIE!

    You're not a baby and never apologize or anything like it for finding joy in wrestling. This stuff is supposed to be fun and make us all feel good. Wrestling lost that feeling of being special and producing feel good moments for a long time and its a great feeling to see that it can be that way again from posts like yours. I'm glad you got that feeling tonight

  3. Goldberg is much like Thanos. He's inevitable. I hate it, I dont understand it, but I know this is a thing that will happen so I'll just ride it out.

    But for the love of god, why the hell is Madcap Moss and that stupid ass outfit he wears getting another PPV match against Drew? I mean god damn, of all the guys you could pick to push, of all the guys you give a PPV slot to, you pick him? Not Cesaro? Not Richochet? Ali is sitting home begging to be let go and you give tv time to MADCAP MOSS? What the hell?

    I got some disbelief on here because I had never seen him before. He was just a name in the Observer to me. He has a great heel run going in GCW.

    More good heel heat going on now is Fuck Ohio. That is the perfect amount of wrestling stupidness to make it great. Like really, why should I hate Ohio? 

     

    Fuck Ohio? Tell me more, cause this sounds awesome!

    This. I was so fucking pissed.

    There's no legit reason for him not to be there. None. The story and crowd response was RIGHT THERE and WWE just said "fuck it" and put him in a god damn battle royal. Makes no damn sense

  6. Christ, i just can't bring myself to care at all about this show. E vs Reigns was a potential wrestlemania headliner. Now it's thrown out on this PPV at a time when neither dude should be losing and the end result will be forgotten about five minutes after the show ends. 

    Every person on this board can come up with better stakes and better ways to make this brand vs brand bullshit actually mean something while the "creative" department just throws shit out on Twitter, changes it later in the day, and then wonders why no one cares about these tag matches.

    Those interviews with Becky about Charlotte are actually interesting. Kinda make me want to see the match. Why are they not cutting promos like this on television? Why are they not using the hours of footage they have of Becky and Charlotte to make this crap compelling? Again, literally every person on this board could put five minutes of thought and make a more compelling reason for this match to happen then we have seen on TV. I don't remember a time when I was more frustrated with the current product or cared less about a PPV

  7. between NXT 2.0 and this situation, it just really disheartens me as a fan. What incentive do I have as a fan to get invested in anyone, since Vince or Nick can wake up on the wrong side of the bed and release someone? Kahn says that there will be more callups from NXT soon. Why should I look forward to any of them, since they will probably be fired or sent to Main Event purgatory for God knows how long? I love Swerve to death, but @Hagan is spot on, him and Adonis will be on main event filling the spot that Lucha House Party occupied by the Rumble if not sooner. We can all agree that Steiner's kid is great, but they've already done stupid shit with him(everything involving Chucky on Halloween Havoc is indefensable) and we all know there's more to come.

    I wish I could get more into AEW. There are great things and great wrestlers there(Punk, Cole, Dragon, Dustin, Miro, Malaki, etc)but it's just not for me like it is for so many of you. This is the most disheartened I have felt about the future of wrestling in a long time. How many of these guys cut are just going to fade away from the business all together?  This just all sucks

    Guilty pleasure favorite and it's soundtrack. Now watch the sequel, Teen Wolf Too! ?

    “SHOOT IT, FATBOY” Is often quoted by my brother and I over the years. I know in my ❤️ neither are good movies, but I’ve seen them both roughly 500 times ?

  9. Note to WWE, its obvious you don't give a shit about the women's tournament. Don't book the damn thing if you ain't actually going to put effort into it.

    And please dear god in the name of all things good and holy, do not do what I think you're going to do and give us King Jinder. I'm sure he's a nice guy and people backstage like the guy. But god damnit he just sucks in every way possible. Finn, Woods, Film something backstage with Sami and make it look like he's there, literally EVERY OTHER OPTION IS BETTER. Please no Jinder

    I finally watched Black Widow and my review is that putting a spoopy, minor-key cover of Smells Like Teen Spirit over the opening credits feels like something that would happen in a parody of modern action movies.

    Everything else was fine: good action scenes, Harbour and Weisz were both really good, plot was pretty stupid.

    If I could have one wish for all movies going forward, it would be for this trend to die a fiery death. I hate these slowed down covers that turn up in seemingly every movie and every trailer. Granted, it was well done(in my opinion)for this film, but it needs to stop from here on

    Before this becomes a thing:

     

     

    My only issue with this, is can't he explain this? We can't get a vignette or something where he explains where the name came from? I like the name, I like the history and I like Lee. Just take two minutes, Monday Night Raw, and EXPLAIN TO ME WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT

  12. Watching uso vs dolph on smack down. With all the wrestlers and talent that have been let go, I see no justification for why dolph wasn’t one of them. What the hell does the dude even bring to the table anymore? He is the wrestling equivalent of watching paint dry. You had a window to do something with him years ago but that shit is CLOSED.I don’t get it
