JonnyLaw Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Yeah, it's not like any popular American wrestler would only go by one name, or even worse, just their initials. Besides, he may have lost a first name, but he gained a TM.
RIPPA Posted November 2, 2016 Author Posted November 2, 2016 Well remember when Nakamura was first announced there was a brief period where they were only using his last name but then he showed up on TV and it was his full name
SirSmUgly Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 They should shoot that show in front of the monkeys at Full Sail instead of after a Smackdown Live. 1
cool arrow Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Has anyone mentioned that Davey Richards has announced that 2017 will be his last year in the business?

I wasn't aware he was still wrestling. He also has said similar things in the past though so I'm of the "I'll believe it when I see it" mindset regarding Davey.

"Davey Richards is retiring soon" is this generation's "Yokozuna will join the Hart Foundation next week on Raw" 4
Curt McGirt Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Bryan's gonna have even more of a reason to be a snarky asshole on Talking Smack now since they didn't put him and Mauro back together on commentary. He'll be going over Smackdown while the cruisers are wrestling... kind of a low blow right there.
Raziel Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Well, do they tape Talking Smack at 10 while 205 Live is going on and air it after, or just do it live at 11?
Web Conn Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 So the buzz around town Is that Orton won't be at Survivor Series, question is does Taker replace him in the 5-on-5 match?
Raziel Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Please no, last thing we need is Old Man Taker hobbling around the match that's going to be bogged down by the fact that the teams all hate their partners, because if we want to create teams to win, let's load them with people actively feuding with each other...
Niners Fan in CT Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Why not do the 205 show at 7? Wouldn't that make more sense? I think the crowd will be burnt out. Also, there's ANOTHER Mohegan Sun arena? WTF? 3
Kevin Wilson Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 My personal preference, which may be no one elses, would have been that they tape the 205 show on the previous house show and still air it on Tuesdays. Still professionally shot but not super fancy to give it a different feel, house shows crowds are hot for everything, and they could have added commentary in post production. A dead tired SD crowd isn't ideal but hopefully they'll still be into it, having an excited crowd does a lot to enhance the matches. 1
Raziel Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 I give it a PPV cycle of dead, burnt out crowds reacting like crickets before they pull the plug and move it to Full Sail... At which point, it'll take off like NXT did. 1
RIPPA Posted November 2, 2016 Author Posted November 2, 2016 The reason they can't do yet before is because they tape Main Event (or Superstars I get them confused) I guess the thought process is that it will be the same length of a full RAW taping so NBD. Of course, totally ignoring that everyone will leave after the SD Main Event
ChesterCopperpot Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Is Talking Smack getting canned then?????
Niners Fan in CT Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 I read somewhere that Talking Smack will air after the 205 but I don't know if that's been confirmed.
nate Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Why, pray tell, might Randy Orton be out of Survivor Series?

JRGoldman Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 Does anyone else remember the contest that WCW had where you could write a rap for PN News and he would rap it at a PPV? The winner was hilariously bad, and it's been a point of fascination for me to see what the other entries were like, or if WCW just picked one essentially at random.
