The Pro Wrestling Thread - No Gimmick Needed

Can't remember the last time Roman Reigns got such a positive responds out of the audience. Having him help Dean out has proven to be a great way to raise Roman's stock in the crowd's eyes. So weird to see WWE's creative team actually do a good job.

ROH next Friday! Best in the fucking World PPV!

I think Lethal is going to win the World title.

Highlights of RAW were the opening segment with Cena/Kevin Owens and then the Owens/Neville match. Neville has taken so many losses though so I really dont know what direction they are going with him. R-Truth's cameo appearance in the Reigns/Ziggler/Kane promo was hilarious. I legit laughed and Kane's facial expressions were golden. Speaking of Kane, he didn't job for once getting the win over Ziggler. Reigns/Kofi match was not bad and I continue to enjoy the New Day.

I'm still confused with the Nikki/Paige feud. Are we supposed to like Nikki now? Don't care about the Wyatts/Matadores match. Didn't hate the Orton/Sheamus match although we have seen them feud with each other a lot of times already. And I didnt mind the main event match but I felt it dragged on for very long. The overrun went 15 minutes. Glad J & J won a match though. Overall average show.

Whenever you guys have a chance, I highly encourage you to watch this. This is the final from the most recent Best of the Super Juniors between last years Runner-up KUSHIDA vs. Kyle O' Reilly.

If this doesn't make you miss good, professional wrestling, then all hope is lost.

On a bit of a different note, there might a deal brewing between NXT and WWNLive, the group that owns Evolve, Full Impact Pro and Shine. http://www.pwinsider.com/article/94307/wwe-nxt-about-to-evolve-and-more.html?p=1

RIP Dusty Rhodes. He was definitely a legend. I won't be surprised if the next time we see Stardust, he officially drops the gimmick and goes back to being Cody Rhodes.
