Outsider

After mania the Peacock stream went right to the documentary. I really enjoyed it. Looks like his stop and go pushes were because he was full of ideas and it probably conflicted with the writers. I miss when wrestlers used their own imagination to create stories and gimmicks. The writers probably complained to HHH. He did mention that Bray could be difficult to reign in. His family is really great in this. It's definitely a must watch.

I just skimmed through the movie.... I just just couldn't take it seriously. Zac Efron did a great job. But he should have played Kerry. Kerry was the mega star of the family. They still could have told Kevin's story. J.A. White who played Kerry looked like a total weirdo. Horrible actor. I know Hollywood is giving him a "big push" but wrong dude to play Kerry. Kerry handsome with chiseled features. Not a short weirdo. Maybe they had budget issues but still they could have cast better. The dude who played Harley Race looked great.

Ole is one of those guys that most people don't credit enough. He understood the wrestling business in every aspect. He knew how to book a territory where you return weekly to each town. And he talked about how he couldn't use Hogan because it would expose Hogan, unless you just let Hogan squash everybody. Then what? Hogan was made for the national promotions. Anyway Ole had a tremendous amount of knowledge on booking and angles and how to use talent. As the 80s went along he adapted and helped create the Road Warriors and other dark characters. Jim Herd asked Ole to create a new character and Ole wrote down some ideas including "the black scorpion." And Jim Herd loved the idea without even thinking who would be behind the mask! By this time Ole was probably sick of how the WWF changed the mainstream idea of what the business was. So he just did whatever to collect a nice check. I always respected Ole, maybe because he looks like my ex girlfriend's father. RIP

TNA talent should Unionize and elect Scotty D. as the leader. Tell me that it wouldn't work. Perfect time to Unionize and force the corporate geeks to bring Scotty back.

The Cody story is great for the young fans, but for me The draw is the Rock. Anyway Rock will probably work against Roman in Saudi Arabia, where the long match expectation won't be as strong and they can get away with a shorter match. The angle could be the Rock causing Roman to lose at Mania. I don't understand why everyone thinks the press conference wasn't a planned thing. If you re-watch it you will see HHH stress WrestleMania 1 Main Event was a TAG-TEAM MATCH! I'm just happy that the Rock is doing the Rock gimmick that made him famous. Just remember the Rock loves Cody and most likely means Cody will be champion at end of night 2. And Rock will start his short feud with Roman that ends in Riyadh or Jeddah I forgot where the next big show is.

The WWE HoF was the only modern product I would watch 10 years ago. And it's probably the reason I got back into wrestling at the Mainia in New Orleans. I think WM30. I looked forward to the night before WM and the big HoF production. And it's great for the old tymers. Then they made it into a joke in the ring. And super short. They need to go back to the big stage production. It really meant something for the veterans to thank ppl and talk about their journey. Remember Larry Zybysko. Peacock ruined everything. I miss the WWE Network. I want another season of Legends House before the last of them are gone.

Now I'm kinda thinking maybe the Rock isn't ready for long match. So it's looking like Rock & Roman vs Cody and Seth? Night 1. Then night 2 Seth will also work again vs Drew which is a crappy match but it seems Drew is getting a push. And obviously Cody vs Roman. I love the Rock heel shtick. So much more entertaining. @sek69 I agree. CM Punk getting hurt really fuct Seth. Seth's ego can't handle it. Roman cracks me up every time he says Seth is wearing his wife's clothes!

Sorry for 2 same topics. The last one didn't work. Maybe because I used emoji in title? But this one works fine. So moderator can remove the other one if necessary.

It's funny how so many "smart" fans can get worked so easily. Just look back at history when Becky was out of main event and Vince chose Charlotte Flair to challenge Ronda at Mainia. We all wanted Becky and she became a huge Babyface. Use that same logic. You heard it here 1st. Rock vs Roman night 1. Roman takes a beating. It doesn't matter who wins if it's non title match. Night 2 Cody beats Roman for the title. And Roman stays "strong" because he took a beating the night prior. He might walk to the Ring with medical wraps on his mid section or his limbs. But he'll be somewhat injured so he has excuse why he lost. It's funny to me how gullible the media is. Of course Cody will main event maina. Just give them time to announce it. The tragic thing to me is how WWE treats the real star of 2022 and 2023...Sami Zayn. He is made to put Drew over on TV constantly. Zayn was the top guy exactly 1 year ago. He is the reason WWE got red hot with the bloodline angle. If they give him a mic and some creative freedom he could still be the man but the new execs have slotted him waay down and he's all about business so he won't complain much. But I will repeat the spoilers. Night 1 Rock vs Roman Night 2 Cody goes over Roman Roman won't be 100% night 2 so he will stay strong until he returns for SummerSlam. All the "We want Cody " is part of the angle. It's not organic like the Daniel Bryan Yes movement.

What's the purpose of the ambulance angle? Because mjf can't hang with the pros in the ring. He's just a gimmick and all signs are looking bad in this contract year. I'm an AEW fan from the start but I gotta call it like I see it. The Hangman Page match didn't elevate anyone. I don't think it hurt either guy. Hopefully swerve will continue his rise and Page can get back to his main event status. Ok thanks for hearing me out my bruvs.

Oh wow I was right. I'm so smart? What a joke. Of course Jay White is gonna play along but TK needs to grow balls. And everytime ginsburg is ref, MJF is going over. Cole would have put up a better match vs Jay. Ginsburg is another gimmik who needs to learn how to take a realistic bump.

I'm writing this before main event. My prediction is MJF is going to fight and oh no he's injured. All a ploy because he's a coward and can't keep up with Jay White. TK needs to study history to see the world champ belt is dropped if he can't draw.

Show was okay. The last couple Saudi shows seemed waay better. Probably because the bloodline angle was still hot. Hopefully they'll do something with Bailey and give her more promo time. And same for Zayn, I hope they don't use him to put priest over. Priest will never be a big star imo. He has no charisma. The women's division seems like a cluster truck.

Yeah bringing in Flair would've made sense when Tully and Arn were on TV weekly. Now Flair has some shady business partners with some energy drink and it's not going to move the needle.
