Once again, Wade Barrett proves his makes everything better. When he got asked about winning the Rumble he said:
"That means getting into the ring with Brock Lesnar. That's quite terrifying."
-
Would you trust one of the divas with a real chainsaw though?
The best part of GLOW was that story of Mando Guerrero choking out one of the women to earn "respect" from the other women and Lisa Moretti was the only one who wasn't scared shitless.
*edit*
"best" probably isn't the word some people would use..

The Disney version or the book?
Either is equally fucked up, but I am not a natural blonde.

I just watched the GLOW documentary on Netflix. It's so good. I've been looking for clips on Youtube because of it.
Mout Fiji is awesome. There's a clip of her in the film with 10 women trying to take her out of a battle royal and she just starts swatting away like flies.

Get a sense of humor.

I haven't watched it a while, but it was interesting for the old women to ask why are the women of today are wrestling when they aren't trying to convey any emtion from the crowd. Even Moolah (I think) goes "Why are they wrestling? to prove they are athletic?" The film is 10 years old, but I think it still brings up a lot of good points. While I am not a fan of her's, it definitely highlights why someone would be into how Alicia Fox wrestles.
In all fairness, though, you could easily say the same thing about the vast majority of male wrestlers too.
True.
People think women wrestlers got it bad now haven't watched this documentary. Could things be better? Sure. But fucking Billy Wolfe for a roster spot seems like a terrible thing. Or worst, getting in there with Moolah for 90 minutes as she was living the gimmick and didn't care about no one else but her girls.

If any of y'all are man enough to watch it, Lipsticks and Dynamite is on Netflix streaming right now.
Mae Young rules. She tells a great story of women wanting to be her to the point they are bleaching their hair. She also talked about how everyone loved the way she worked as a clip of her fucking hammering some broad's chest is show. But the story of her being her own lawyer/preacher and convincing a jury she was innocent of murder was just crazy.

WWE is operating a business model no other wrestling company is going to be able to replicate.
I feel like TNA has the backing for that, but for some fucking reason, Panda Energy has not pulled the plug on it yet. Isn't there a tax break for companies if one part of the company is failing? I think I remember hearing that some where.
-
Don't they have enough jobbers with that backstory?
-
A tribute to the WWE Class of '14.
I forgotten what Hawkins looked like and wonder when he got a hair cut. They should've just announced Punk's firing on 6/12/2014 like the other guys that got axed that day.
And the only person in that video that is really missed is Justin Roberts tbh Though Teddy Long's impact is being felt every damn week now.
-
No. I am happier because Wade motherfuckin' Barrett is back.

I don't understand complaining about PPV prices if there's going to be more than one person watching it. Make those cheap fuckers pitch in. At least buy some food or beer.

It just donned on my that "J & J" stood for Jamie and Joey. haha
But when is the last time Rey did any like fancy lucha stuff? He does that 619 spot and the things were he falls in a seated position and a frog splash sometimes. Why would anyone be interested in putting him with in a luchador spot? idk
-
Cesaro's promo was really ineffective because they give him a mic and didn't wow people. Esp weeks after people refusing to shut the fuck up about brass rings and how Vince hates him.
And Barrett is naturally skinny. he will pump up in a few weeks. He's a scientist by nature too.

He already has a cape!

These motherfuckers changed the price of WK9 to $34.99 and $44.99 for HD. It had been listed as $9.99 for weeks.
You can watch it on Flipps on your tablet, apparently.

"Hey, baby. Let's roleplay! You be the dude. The dead one."
It's not about homosexual necrophilia. It's simply finding the chick in facepaint sexy.
Certainly puts those gifs of Hogan and Warrior being coked out in perspective.
Also:
Such glorious locks. My curls don't have anything on his.
-
Can someone more likeable make the Rey joke about that kid?
-
Has anyone else had a chance to listen/read some of the Jarrett/JR media blitz to push the New Japan show this week?
Jarrett is such a politician, I am not sure why he doesn't quit pushing wrestling and run for office somewhere. But the interview I am listening to now has been really good.
-
That's more like it.
But it's not the WWE's fault that the internet lives in some sort of fantasy land in which the top guy jobs when it matters the most. The Nexus didn't have any long term potential because the only one who didn't look like he wanted to cry out of fear each time he went out there was Wade Barrett. Summerslam was the ending to the hot summer angle. When they realized that only Wade was worth the push, he got it, made them some coin (particularly in Europe) and got kicked off the top of the cage by Punk for his troubles.
Punk buried Wade way more than anything Cena did. Even when Cena literally buried Wade under a bazillion chairs.

I don't see how losing at Summerslam hurt Nexus.
The whole match was played to a Nexus win, with Miz interfering against Bryan, Cena against 2 Nexus people and that DDT on the concrete.
Losing directly after that move against super smiley Cena and looking like the biggest jobbers that ever jobbed killed their momentum.
People overlook how well the ending stretch was though. After the DDT spot, instead of pinning Cena, Wade had Gabriel hit his 450 move. And he didn't go to hit it ASAP, He took a good 2 or 3 minutes. Look enough for Cena to at least roll out of the way. Once Wade realized what happened, he charged in blindly and got tripped up into the STF. Which worked for me because Wade showed that no matter how collected and mature he was compared to the other rookies, he himself was still vulnerable to his own rage and inexperience.
In place of actually discussing your points, take this:
You're the worst.
Fine. I will accept that. But you have a guy giving himself a piledriver to put over a sex doll in your sig. Are you really in a position to talk about weird/stupid/usual/blah blah etc booking?

People keep bringing up Wade being injury proned, he has been more proned to being stepped over for terrible people:
- 2010, Miz
- 2011, Zeke Jackson
- 2012, Jericho/Sheamus
- 2013, Fandago/Miz/FUCKING CURTIS AXEL
- 2014, Swaggie
Like if they had just pushed the guy instead of jobbing him to Sheamus or some suck ass performer, he wouldn't be getting "hurt so much." And I like Sheamus, but Wade is clearly better than him in every way except for milking a ten count. I will agree that Mark Henry isn't a guy I remember a lot of matches from. But fucking hell that Summerslam 2011 match with Sheamus is pro wrestling.

JANUARY 2015 WRESTLING DISCUSSION
in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING

Going back to the Lipsticks and Dynamite film, the best story besides the legend of Mae Young was the fact that most of them had stage names because their real names were too long to sign a bunch of autographs at once.
Fucking carnies. I love it.
