  1. And the show is running head to head with Takeover like this year. I know that it is working with Ring of Honor but as someone who choose Kenny vs Cody over one of the best Takeovers of all time I kind of feel like "fool me once shame on me" right now. They really need to put something big like an important Okada or Naito match because you know the Takeover show is going to be great. Granted the vast majority of people who are going to this show are going because they saw "new Japan" on the show
  2. Oh please this is a UFC that allows people like Jon Jones and Conor McGregor do whatever they want. The idea that they are upset with Brock saying 'Mother fucker" in that completely worked bit with Cormier is laughable. As for the WWE, the idea of Brock holding the WWE title hostage for more money on a contract and THAT was embarrassing is also laughable. You should be more worried about how much longer he is going to hold on to the belt and never appear because of it. If they somehow figure out to have Brock beat Cormier (because he is completely mismatched right now), that title could be dormant for another year. Although the chances of Brock passing a USADA drug test legally is probably the same as him beating Cormier so the fight might not even happen. Then what
  3. I believe it is up now with the Japanese commentary. As far as the US commentary version, I don't know. If you have want to deal with 2018 Jim Ross

    WWE Hidden Gems

    Some highlights from the Intrepid show: 1. The jockey from Belmont Park at about 5 feet tall trying to slam Yokozuna with a riding crop in his pants. And then whipping him in the ass 2. Guys who obviously don't watch wrestling trying to understand the concept of a body slam. No idea what the first guy was trying and Joe Morris seemed to be trying it backwards. Although Rick Steiner apparently tried a belly to belly suplex which brought the great line from Savage "we Americans can think" which was debatable at that time. 3. George Martin bribing him with $5 although I am not sure how that would work I wonder how many of these guys were temporary people in case Luger's helicopter showed up too late. I mean some of these guys have no link to New York sports at all like Jim Jensen or the Penguins hockey player. Although at one time Todd is on the phone or walkie talkie so I assume they were getting updates on Luger's arrival. Shows you the power of WWF editing because most of the crowd thought or more importantly hoped that it would be Hogan in the helicopter. When it was announced as Luger the crowd was kind of lukewarm. Savage really helped get the crowd on his favor and then once he hit the ring the crowd was 100% behind him
  5. So based on his last couple weeks on 205 Live, can we now put Buddy Murphy as one of the top 5 guys in the company right now. Unless you believe that Mustafa Ali is "carrying" this great feud for some reason and then I would have no issues putting him on top 5 as well Their match this week was just nuts. Almost borderline dangerous it was so risky but just amazing.
  6. Is the 'Fulton' in Callihan's group the Sawyer Fulton from NXT? I thought he got released so I figure it is While I love Rob Parker, the idea of Jack Swagger as the 2018 version of Sid Vicious is pretty hard to swallow. But at least he did squash and "injure" Jeff Cobb so at least they are going with it.
  7. For Wrestlemania or Summerslam weekend they could definitely fill half to 75% of that building. Assuming they include the usual Bullet Club, Stardom and New Japan stars as well. But the idea of using MSG as a replacement to the Hammerstein or Manhattan Center is a complete joke
  8. if they would spread out the general admission seats to wrap around the entire Patriot center (I know it is EagleBank Arena now), then the whole building would have only 10 rows of people in a building in a general admission area that holds probably 5000 - 7000 people. Luckily the way TV is shot nobody will see this. It is just the pictures spoilering the title change Putting the majority of the fans on the floor might not have been a great idea either but running a building that can hold that many people when you are only going to get 1200 - 1400 is not good. I was curious the crowd at Best in the World because I know EagleBank is a bigger building than the Baltimore place they ran their PPV.
  9. Yeah I thought I saw this but looking at more "best friend" wasn't right. Or maybe it was one side of the fence. I know he was very respectful later to Matt when he was diagnosed with cancer
  10. Think that says so much about the person that one of his best friends (and vice versa) was Bob Holly. The guy who beat the crap out of him on Tough Enough
  11. Wait there are people that still think Roman Reigns could get over. Have you not watched the last 2 years of him. It is over for him regardless of how unprofessional Brock is. The only real scenario is to figure out how Reigns and finally beat Brock to get that belt off of him so Braun can then take it away from him
  12. Because apparently being courted by the WWE and UFC is considered a huge selling point? Although at this point I have a hard time believe that Brock moves the attendance or PPV neeedle anymore given how little he works and how awful he works when he is there
  13. They re-signed him either on the day of Wrestlemania or the day before and they are closed to running out of dates IN JULY? For what 2 or 3 appearances. I would like to think that when Reigns finally wins the title at next Wrestlemania that they complete bury him. But I think the chances are still good that Brock would keep the title again and this nightmare will continue next year
  14. I am only in show 5 of MLW Fusion and Tony might be one of the best announcer guys in wrestling right now. I think the best I like him is that he hasn't one anything so far that the stereotypical WWE, TNA, and even Ring of Honor a few times guys do. He just does his job. He doesn't have some stupid "It's Boss Time" that he has to get in. He hasn't flipped flopped from liking heels or faces too much. Sure he doesn't really know the moves that well but at least he isn't trying to fake it or go 'WHAT A MANEUVER' on us Does anyone know why Joey Janela is being managed by Aria Blake? I mean she is fine but everyone knows that Janela and Penelope Ford are just great together
  15. ECW Test was entertaining but was so incredibly roided up that is probably what lead to his death
  16. Holy fuck about 10 minutes and this is deep and really personal. I mean if you didn't watch the ending you would think Matt and Jeff have incredible heat with the company
  17. I was just thinking. What if the main event at Wrestlemania was Reigns vs Brock again and Reigns finally wins ONLY to have Braun cash in and win the title a couple minutes later. I mean if you are going to go "political hit" theory go nuts baby Or what Strummer said. The sooner the better for me
  18. There is no reason they shouldn't talk about this bump for months and try to make a new gigantic star out of it. It might be mentioned tomorrow if he's lucky, though. Given how over pushed Owens was on Smackdown last year I am not sure where the "new" applies but the point is right
  19. We didn't see it but Kofi may be dead as well Braun winning is too predictable but unfortunately it might be the old way we get the belt off of Brock
  20. It is funny that the guy who is scared of heights falls off the tallest one in the match
  21. No way she was pushed harder than Nikki Bella or Charlotte. Or even Moolah although that was mostly because of what she was doing outside the ring
  22. Well I would like to see Big E in this match but Kofi in a ladder match is never a bad idea
  23. Best thing is that it didn't really hurt anybody at all. Nia had a competitive match that most people didn't think was going to happen. P.lus she can still be a babyface which she was until this match. Rousey was great in the ring showing she can last long and didn't really lose. Believe me this option was 100 times better than what people thought which was stephanie screwing Rousey
  24. Well if you are going to have Alexa cash in this is the perfect time to do it. Rousey vs Bliss feud is going to be awesome
  25. Oh man the ultimate revenge on Nia
