Stiva Posted January 27, 2019 Report Posted January 27, 2019 Loved Murphy dispatching everyone with knees, a pretty convincing way to keep him strong. Murphy vs Trevor Lee would be a real jam Quote
hammerva Posted January 27, 2019 Report Posted January 27, 2019 First time I have heard Aiden English on commentary and he is fine. Better that Percy Watson. Although that KICK KICK gave me bad flashbacks of Corino always screaming SUPERKICK in ROH Quote
Blehschmidt Posted January 27, 2019 Report Posted January 27, 2019 Murphy is seriously one of my 2 or 3 favorite guys to watch in the whole company. So good. Quote
C.S. Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 Murphy is a guy they probably had no plans for, and he made his own spot and success (granted, on 205 Live, but still). Good on him! Quote
Johnny Sorrow Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 That monkey flip on Tozawa off the apron was bonkers. Quote
...TG Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 It's always shocking how bad Shawn is on these panels, mumbling and stammering, semmingly confused. Quote
El-P Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 Isn't calling Becky "The Man" kinda.... you know.... sexist ? (yeah, I'm stirring the pot) Quote

KawadaSmile Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 To be the man, you gotta beat the man, and Becky beat The Man's daughter so she's The Man now Quote
KawadaSmile Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 Is it me or the crowd is pretty darn quiet? Quote

C.S. Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 Because nobody gives a shit about Asuka. Her act did not translate one iota outside of NXT. WWE cooling her down and devaluing her sure as hell didn't help, but I always knew she'd have a tough road ahead of her on the main roster. I'm rooting for Becky to lose via interference and then enter and win the Rumble. Quote

My brother only watches older stuff and he literally gets motion sickness trying to watch contemporary matches. It's horrible and it's amazing that no one has tried to tell Vince/Dunne. I'll be honest : it actually hurts my perception and any enjoyment I can get out of this match. Let me watch the fucking match already ! Quote

Okay, sure, Asuka has been supremely over since being called up from NXT. My bad. 1 minute ago, El Dragon said: I think C.S. is just full of any hot takes that will help his pre conceived notions today. How is it a hot take? It's a simple fact. Quote

It's a simple fact. Figuring she is still getting big pops most nights and got a big reaction to win she won teh title, I think you need to look at what the definition of "fact" is. Quote
KawadaSmile Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 Asuka is over, but not to the extent she was in NXT - she does get big reactions even despite her being cooled off. She also is going up against the biggest babyface in the company, so it's natural she wouldn't look as over Quote
KawadaSmile Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 Oh hey a big pop for Asuka winning. Not over at all. Quote
