Kronos Posted October 25, 2014 Report Posted October 25, 2014 I was very pleased to discover Lynch is Rebecca Knox, who was a fantastic young talent about 8 or 10 years back and then retired due to injury. I spent her whole segment on this week's NXT thinking, "From where do I know this girl?" I am torn about Superstars as a show these days. The matches tend to be very good on average, as they have since the show started some years back (2010?), but the constant RAW clips and such give me tiredhead. OTOH, between Main Event and Superstars, I don't need to watch RAW. So that's something.
KrisZ Posted October 25, 2014 Report Posted October 25, 2014 Billy Jack was a 5 year vet before going to WWE so he didn't work his whole career there. NFL is way different because it's the only game in town
sek69 Posted October 25, 2014 Report Posted October 25, 2014 I hope Billy Jack's lawyer is familiar with current WWE so when the company lawyers trot out how much they do now to prevent concussions, he can point out how guys see their pushes disappear when they miss time due to one.
Tim Evans Posted October 25, 2014 Report Posted October 25, 2014 If Becky's gonna be a heel, she needs to get away from Sasha cause from the little I've seen, Sasha is way better WWE type heel. I"ll miss babyface Becky though.
Coffey Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 Isn't Billy Jack a batshit insane conspiracy theorist nowadays? I remember him having some ridiculous, off-the-wall shoot...
The Chief Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 I'll admit, I kind of marked out at the list of "dangerous" moves.
sek69 Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 Yeah the only time I ever heard about someone getting hurt on a powerslam was when WCW had the trap door for the Warrior.
Matt D Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 I'm not even sure what a facebreaker is. Is it the Codebreaker? A flapjack? Who did that move which ended with a face on a knee? Kidman? Or was that the back of the head. Let me go google TOP TEN MOVES OF KIDMAN. Wait, 65 moves? What the hell. What's #63? Belly to Back Suplex. #10 is fireman's carry neckbreaker. That's what I was thinking of. Nevermind. What? the Kid Krusher 01 is only #9? He turned that right into a pin by rolling over. HA "Don't try to powerbomb kidman" is #8. Anyway, what the hell is the facebreaker?
Exposer Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 I agree with Matt. Facebreaker is terribly vague. There's a number of things it could be. Something like the Sister Abigail, or the Codebreaker, or a boot to the face. Who knows what it is.
KrisZ Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 Trying to figure out when Billy Jack took a Cobra Clutch Slam
Johnny Sorrow Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 Isn't Billy Jack a batshit insane conspiracy theorist nowadays? I remember him having some ridiculous, off-the-wall shoot...Yup, hes batshit nuts.
The Chief Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 Trying to figure out when Billy Jack took a Cobra Clutch Slam I don't even think I've seen that move in WWE until DiBiase Jr.
Coffey Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 I assume a Facebreaker would be the X-Factor that X-Pac used to use as a finish. Dolph Ziggler still uses it today.
Matt D Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 That's Brie's finish too I think. The Bella Buster. What about this thing? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1T0UW0wpkg
PeteF3 Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 Facebreaker could be a dumbed-down name for the DDT.
Yo-Yo's Roomie Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 " • “Brain Buster” — a front facelock combined with a vertical suplex in which the victim lands headfirst; • “Bulldog” — a wrestler grabs his opponent’s head and leaps forward, so that the victim’s face is driven into the ground; • “Cobra Clutch Slam” — a wrestler places the opponent in a hold called the cobra clutch, lifts his opponent, and then jumps into the air, landing his opponent on the ground; • “Facebreaker” — a knee to the face, including many variants involving throwing an opponent down onto one’s propped up knee, headfirst; • “Jawbreaker” — a move in which the opponent’s jaw is slammed into the wrestler’s body, usually the knee or elbow; and, • “Powerslam” — a move in which the performer falls face-first into his opponent. The above was posted on DVDVR, which makes the facebreaker sound like the GTS. I'm not sure on what planet that describes a powerslam though.
The Chief Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 We really need these moves explained in a courtroom setting.
cm funk Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 "Facebreaker" is that move HHH does as a cut off
goc Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 We really need these moves explained in a courtroom setting. They could use action figures for a visual demonstration.

OTOH, between Main Event and Superstars, I don't need to watch RAW. So that's something. Isn't Superstars just Raw clips bookended by two matches? I usually just fast-forward through the middle of the show.
Matt D Posted October 27, 2014 Report Posted October 27, 2014 We really need these moves explained in a courtroom setting. They could use action figures for a visual demonstration. Or a Malenko like in the early 90s.
KrisZ Posted October 27, 2014 Report Posted October 27, 2014 Cena gets Seth Rollins after all tonight on RAW.....hilarious
The Chief Posted October 28, 2014 Report Posted October 28, 2014 I'm all for Randy Orton giving us Psycho Sid promos to laugh at from here on.
Jimmy Redman Posted October 28, 2014 Report Posted October 28, 2014 OK, that was the best promo Orton has cut in like five years. I just mentioned how bored I am of him, but crazy cokehead ranting Randy...I dunno, I kind of liked that. Henry/Show tag title shot? Angle alert.
Strummer Posted October 28, 2014 Report Posted October 28, 2014 Orton was shootin' on RAW and I friggin loved it!! More of this Orton please. The one screaming and spitting like Beavis
