The Pro Wrestling Thread - No Gimmick Needed

[GoseiGold]

Now we just need Chucky and Robocop as tag team champions

Well maybe to promote the remake, TNA in it's infinite wisdom will give "Robocop" a run with the TNA world title.

RAW "LIKES"
-CM Punk continues to show why he's the best heel in the company right now. Good promo and opening segment.

Seconded. Despite what some are saying, I don't think Punk was disrespectful to Bill Moody in the slightest. Punk never insulted Moody or the Paul Bearer character, he just turned the conversation back to himself. A perfectly in-character thing for him to do. That said, he walked the line of tasteful, but didn't cross it.

Jericho came back for this? I thought he was going to feud with Ryback since that's what the dirtsheets said.

You mean the "dirtsheets" were . . . WRONG?? Surely these are the end times.

-Punk's match with Kane was alright. Makes sense to have Kane win as it was a tribute to Paul Bearer. Punk taking the urn away was a good way to show he isn't afraid.

Agreed! Again, it was all completely in-character. Hell, Kane's FATHER JUST DIED! I lost my father last year and if someone had interrupted his memorial, a thorough, merciless, and probably fatal ass kicking would have been my first reaction as well.

"DISLIKES"
-Is Big Show turning face again? Hope not.

I have honestly lost track of many wrestlers' character alignments at this point. I call it "Orton Syndrome."

-By the time Fandango actually wrestles, I won't care anymore.

I don't care now. I might care if he would pick an accent and stick with it. I see the potential in a Dancing with the Stars cocky heel gimmick, but I have no faith in WWE to do anything but take a good idea, go completely half a$$ with it, and let it wither on the vine. (Looking at you Zeb. And Brodus. And Tensai. And Sin Cara. And Kofi. And . . . OK, now I'm just sad)

So I guess NXT's Bo Dallas and Wade Barrett aren't feuding anymore?

Anyone example of the writers changing **** every 2 seconds.

 

[Mr. Underachiever]

I wouldn't mind seeing if Ryback could give Henry the Shell Shocked.

So you want to see Ryback break his back? He couldn't even lift Heyman.

RyuSensei, thanks for agreeing with most of my views about the current RAW show. Lol...

 

[Forever Knight]

So you want to see Ryback break his back? He couldn't even lift Heyman.

WWE's original plan was for Ryback to give Big show the Shell Shocked as a Mania Moment this year. Cena can squat Big Show, I'm sure Ryback can SS Henry.

First Kenneth Cameron, now Jimmy Uso?

 

[Forever Knight]

Meh, I don't think anyone gives a **** about Wrestlers not living perfect lives.

 

[chronoxiong]

Holy cow! TNA Impact had a huge crowd for their Thursday night show. Now that's impressive. If they can keep this up, they are really gonna do damage to Smackdown. I remember some photos of Smackdown's crowds from last year and they were pathetic. TNA has an interesting direction they are going with right now. Not bad.

 

[Forever Knight]

Going on the road, having a bigger ring, and cutting down the ppvs is exactly what TNA needed and this is gonna make them big.
