Keller is just asking a 'what if'. I don't read any implication in that. smh

haha, some guy yelling 'you suck' and 'boooo' at undertaker

Does anyone have a link to the HHH video package referenced earlier this week (of his early-aughts reign of terror)? Haven't come across it yet (granted my search effort was only fast forwarding through one day of Wrestlemania Today and TWIWWE).

I recall last year having problems with timing and they only had eight matches, so I wouldn't underestimate their ability to completely fuck up timing. Looking at the WM29 card now and jesus, no match before Undertaker/Punk went longer than ten and a half minutes?

And Damien Sandow

If you like montages of HHH shirtless and flexing in the ring, his Wrestlemania Rewind is for you. We'll see what other matches/main events they get around to profiling in the coming weeks/months, but this one obviously sticks out as...something else. This was my first Rewind, though, and I will say it's a program tailor made for a viewer like me - there's so much content on the network, I rarely have the time to watch a 2.5 hour PPV from the beginning, and the service's search function is still pretty shitty (so that I can't search and go to a specific match). CM Punk was used as a talking head on a program that premiered only this week.

new wrestlemania rewind - hhh's journey to main eventing x8

(i) small sample size of only a few minutes of use; (ii) the live feed looked to be a little choppy (i had it on mute); and (iii) the expectations floor was set incredibly low, but...the xbox 360 app is sooooooo much better thanks to the update

What if he fought Undertaker at Summerslam and they played Highway to Hell on loop from now until then?

they look like (relatively) normal happy people and not carnies

so...what did punk say on talking dead?

pic?

when are they gonna get to the fireworks factory who was sandow supposed to wrestle??

good job by them

Nit-pick, but just so we're clear, Talking Dead, right?

This can't be true, right? People quit without two weeks notice all the time (just as people get fired or are 'let go' without notice all the time). If you want to leave on good terms, sure, give some notice, but there's no obligation. It's difficult to compare professional wrestling to a real world job. In the abstract, someone like Punk walking out to never return is odd (though, as many have conceded, we still know very little about all this), but (i) this is still a business full of carnies, why do I care that they may have been burned by one cog in their wheel doing what he thinks is best for himself?; and (ii) in a conflict between HHH and pretty much anyone, most are going to side with the latter, especially when the feeling is that Punk left because he didn't want to be in a program with the man (which seems...understandable). If he's unhappy, on autopilot, etc., what other leverage does he have?

The xbox app is brutal: - Only WWE ppvs. WCW and ECW are not there - PPVs are sorted by title, not by year - A glitch, because it wasn't like this yesterday, but at least the Royal Rumble and Wrestlemania archives do not go past the most recent show - No search function - Moving through the app is much less seamless than on the roku I haven't used the 360 for games in some time, so when the Roku stick comes out, I think I'll put that away. The wwe app is great on that device. I can wrap my head around some of the look of an app being different across devices, but the gaps/glitches in content is so weird.

40+ replies until we get to the maestro. smh.

get back to me when they play american males

As of last night, xbox 360 still wasn't accepting a log-in. Tried watching Extreme Rules 2012 on my laptop, but that didn't work after a few minutes. Live feed on the computer continues without incident.

possibly silly question/issue - the live feed works on my iphone, but i don't see a search function. anyone else watching through ios?
