  1. So, after watching SummerSlam, you were willing to follow it up with this? There's something not quite right about you.
  2. Are they gonna run with a running knee strike as a finisher, though?
  3. I was first AND I typed words. I win.
  4. Found it:
  5. Is it too early to throw out WWE-superface Daniel Bryan?
  6. The booking of Punk's championship reign pretty well sucked until he turned heel.
  7. More recent than the first time Cena won the WWE title from JBL, which got referenced on commentary during the match. And when did we start putting statutes of limitations on fond memories?
  8. I was hemming and hawing over ordering this PPV, thinking I would for sure feel cheated if Bryan didn't walk out champion. Well, Bryan didn't walk out champion...and I don't feel cheated in the slightest. Bryan beating Cena clean as a sheet was huge, and the match had a great storyline to boot, with Cena wanting to prove the "you can't wrestle" doubters wrong, and getting himself into Bryan's style of match which he has to power his way out of to survive. The celebration lasted long enough that I got what I wanted out of Bryan's win, and now I have more Bryan matches to look forward to as he chases Orton for the title. Meanwhile, let's not gloss over this: Bryan Danielson, the American Dragon, pinned John Cena clean as a sheet in the main event at SummerSlam. That's just fucking cool. Also, loved the story of Punk/Lesnar, with Lesnar overpowering Punk, and Punk using his ring smarts and the no-DQ stip to counter that, (I kept wanting the announcers to hint at something like "Not that Brock Lesnar doesn't have experience, but there's no such thing as a no-DQ NCAA match. There's no such thing as a no-DQ UFC match. Punk's done nothing his entirely life but professional wrestling. No-DQ makes him the more experienced competitor",) but his overeagerness to revenge himself upon Heyman proved his undoing. Let's be honest, I spent my 50 bucks for the above, but ADR/Christian was a damn fine bonus. The mixed tag was meh, Natty/Brie was meh, Ambrose/RVD wasn't bad, but really didn't blow me away, and the ring of fire stip turned Kane/Wyatt into a snoozefest. I almost forgot Sandow/Rhodes even happened, though admittedly I'm a bit drunk and that was hours ago. It was a perfectly good Smackdown match, now can they get these two away from each other? I don't fucking care.
  9. Finally cracked open my SN Beer Camp 12 pack. Started with an IPA for the first hour of SS. Nice enough, but not really anything to write home about. For the 2nd hour of SS, I had the Imperial Red, which was very good. For Cena/Bryan?
  10. Well let's wait another 30-40 minutes and see...
  11. The USA chant we'll be getting during the match between a Mexican and a Canadian?
  12. It's a fair question, but it's also fair to note that a drive in the nicest car with the prettiest scenery can be ruined by a four-car pileup.
  13. Yeah but still. I'll regret it (for a little while, anyway) if Bryan walks out the champ and I miss it. I literally cannot remember the last time I've cared about a match's outcome so much.
  14. I'm on the fence about ordering. Couldn't find anyone to go in on it with me, so it's "do I want to pay 50 bucks for a card full of good to great matches that is likely to end in an overbooked clusterfuck?"
  15. Rey is in, just apparently not in the "30 Years of WrestleMania" mode. I'm surprised Vince is not included in there. Confirmed on the roster page but not in WM mode are Rey, Ryback, Ziggler, Bryan, and Darren Young. The roster page shows 8 more ?s. Would have to assume they'd be including Sheamus, Titus O Neil, Sandow, and Cody among others. Also no divas yet but Stephanie said in an interview that she's in the game. Oh good...
  16. Y'know, it's a commonly-held misconception that "posting a lot of stupid shit" = trolling, not least by would-be trolls themselves. The whole point of trolling is to incite argument that continues after the troll has absented itself from the proceedings. When the "argument" is a bunch of people calling one person an idiot for posting idiotic things, it's not successful trolling, it's just people playing whack-a-moron.
  17. Whatever. Enjoy it or don't. Are you talking about Wyatt's character and the angle which everyone but you seems to be enjoying, or you beating this one questionable point into the dirt, the enjoyment factor of which is not apparent to me?
  18. Stand tall, Fredo. It's not you who's wrong. It's everyone else.
  19. Here's what I calculated: You bastard, I was doing this too. I'll get my revenge by pointing out the ones you missed! WM 5: Jake/Andre WM 6: Jake/DiBiase WM 8: Taker/Jake WM 20: Evolution vs Rock'n'Sock
  20. Not really. Tebow's dying quails tend not to go over anything.
  21. ---------------------Guzan-------------------- ----Zabaleta------Vidic--------Luiz--------- Cleverley----Mata----Paulinho--Downing ----Altidore-----Van Persie©----Lambert Subs: O'Shea, Dawson, Edu, Etheridge
  22. You assume Belichick signed him ever intending to have him throw a pass in the regular season. He'll be lining up opposite Gronk in the 2-TE formation week 1.
  23. It'll make sense when Sebastian gets RKO-ed.
  24. Siege mentality: Check.
