Now I REALLY want Miz to win, but I can't see it happening. Agreed.

According to Bryan, that match wasn't taped. Doubt there's a fan cam of a random house show in 04'.

It was mostly explained in the mockumentary. In 2013 Bryan started to appear a lot on the JBL & Cole youtube show, that at the time was doing a talent show among some wrestlers. D-Bry created a character called "The Dazzler" that showed that one of his talents was wrestling a bear - he also did a hilarious rap with Kane and a ninja bit with Regal that was amazing - that same week Bryan did commentary on Saturday Morning Slam were he kept the gimmick going and connected every match to wrestling a bear (you can hear a lot of his sound bites in the mockumentary) so it became kind of a "thing". Now, why they did a 20 minute documentary on this during his time off in 2015 I have no clue. I guess he was bored and wanted to have fun with it, I find it surprising how much preparation though, I'm surprised WWE didn't upped it sooner on their youtube channel.

He's given Satánico major props too. In a recent interview he even said that's one of his dream opponents.

Yeah, I heard the last WOR and he was praising how great the Miz/Dolph segment was. It was Alvarez how say he hated it and had a little back and forth with Dave about it.

Or Rollins during the Authority era.

Now I want a best of 7 between Rusev and Roman. I hope Rusev doesn't get lost in the shuffle like the did the first time he lost that belt. I guess he's gonna get a rematch but after that they better come up with something worth a damn for him.

I think Dylan had an interesting take about this on twitter...if I knew how to embed tweets on this board I'd do it but I can only copy/paste what he wrote. https://twitter.com/DylanWaco/status/779394612297216000 [MEDIA=twitter]779394612297216000[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=twitter]779395384099557376[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=twitter]779395543407599616[/MEDIA]

Metalik is awesome glad he's in the Final.

Bryan's been like that on interviews for years though. He's always saying stuff WWE wouldn't want their talent to say or revealing details that don't always make the company look good. I don't see him asking for his release again nor WWE granting him it even if he did. I don't think his "forced" retirement will lead to anything until his contract expires in 2018.

Man can't wait for AJ to have an Ace run till at least Wrestlemania. Dude is something else.

I wanna say Ryan Ward but who knows.

So it's gonna be a B movie based on his life?

I loved it. It was exactly what it was supposed to be, a bloody brawl between two bitter rivals beating the fuck out of each other. Really liked the short length and how they kept things moving.

Or a returning Rusev, but that would make too much sense.

They did that with Kane and Big Show for years, they just weren't able to make their characters as compelling as Jericho. Big Show could sometimes make things interesting though.

So, Roman or Rusev? Considering this board tries to go away from "Great Match Theory" - which is really refreshing - I think it's an interesting discussion. I think I like Rusev more but not by much.

Man, The Revival being on that tournament and costing Heath the title after nefarious cheating would've been amazing.

From what I've read in other forums, most people haven't read the spoilers. I saw a whole bunch of "I hope Gargano wins the whole thing" tweets and post after his match with Ciampa when at that point the match were he lost was already taped. I didn't check the results myself this time and the edit was done greatly, didn't even realize there was an important cut. What happened? Ibushi couldn't get into the ring before 10?

That was fucking fun as hell to watch, great hour of wrestling, loved every moment of it. Fuck a Cruiserweight division. We need THE Brian Kendrick back on Smackdown. No way Sabre loses next week, but man I really hope they put Metalik over him. I have nothing against SZJ (well, I do find him a little overrated but whatever) but Metalik has been more impressive, more over and I REALLY want to see a match with him against Ibushi.

uh didn't Fit Finlay leave the company years ago? He came back in 2012, he's even had some pull apart appearances and got speared by Reigns in one.

HOLY SHIT at this promo by Miz https://streamable.com/v7j2?t=1.0 That was fucking money.

I liked AJ vs Dolph better than AJ vs Cena, and I really liked AJ vs Cena.

Yup. Even though it can't happen now, I still want them to give that belt to Rusev and make him a double champ, he'll make the Universal title feel important in 2 weeks.

I'm pissed we didn't get the F-5 to RKO reversal. Fuck man.
