Technically he was the first NXT champ and was around for the first few months of the switch from FCW to NXT, that is true, but it wasn't close to what it is now. And hey, maybe Rollins will bring that up in his retort He could also bring up their Ring of Honor runs as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akira maeda Posted March 17, 2020 Report Share Posted March 17, 2020 Mania with no crowd is like cooking with no fire. It can be done but it'll probably result in a bland piece of shit. I mean, what exactly is the point of Pro Wrestling without a crowd anyway? Not to mention, this situation will probably kill Drew Mac dead unless carefully handled. I honestly wish they would just reschedule everything but Vince gonna Vince. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Log Posted March 17, 2020 Report Share Posted March 17, 2020 If I'm a wrestler, and I'm working an empty arena match, I am damn sure having a spot in it where I get to yell out, "MY EYE! MY EYE!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Oil prices have tanked. A possible long term effect on this. Saudi Arabia is cutting government spending by 5%. A twice a year wrestling extravaganza looks far less attractive on the balance sheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 With Big E dressing like an Uncle at the BBQ, Bryan and Drew sharing training videos*, and Kurt breaking out the gee-tar again, Corona's done the impossible and made Wrestling Twitter wholesome. *Bonus points for them referencing Bryan's wardrobe malfunction in their match. I popped for Bryan failing Drew's headlock test (squeezing a rubber ball) and complaining he squeezed so hard his ball popped out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 Well they did the impossible. They made me root for Baron Corbin tonight if he is having a match against Gronk. Holy shit who thought that people would like Gronk after that crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactus Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 Both matches on Smackdown this week were a lot of fun. Bryan/Gulak vs Cesaro/Nakamura was four pros working the technical clinic you'd expect out of them. Heavy Machinery vs Miz & Morrison was also surprisingly good. The Mandy Rose love triangle angle is one of the rare times where a romance angle has actually been entertaining. I felt for Otis and Miz & Morrison are great as trash talking heels. The promos were a mixed bag however. Reigns/Goldberg's short and snappy closing segment did it's job, but the opening promo might just end up being the worst segment of 2020. Dire stuff from Gronk. His dancing was utterly cringe inducing. Elias and Corbin's involvement didn't help matters either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brocklock Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 Gronk is gonna bomb bad as a baby face. Guy has a Miz type quality to him and would probably be great as an annoying heel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted March 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 Gronk and Mojo can 100% be themselves and make it work as dickhead jocks/playboys/whatever. Basically something like Ziggler tried to do sometimes but failed because he sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superstar Sleeze Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 Best Smackdown, best WWE TV of 2020! Gronk Ruled! He is a natural. His exuberance comes across great and once he gets in front of a crowd it will be electric. Corbin is a great, logical first feud. Shoutout to Michael Cole who was great! He felt like modern day Lance Russell holding the show together. Zelina Vega has been rocking some amazing outfits but Sasha was a smokeshow in that Tarzanina outfit! Cesaro/Nakamura vs Bryan/Gulak was an awesome hard hitting match! Alexa Bliss cut a great babyface promo on Asuka! Miz/Morrison comedy segment was gold! One of those rare times WWE comedy was actually funny. The USO impression has me rolling. Miz & Morrisonvs Otis&Tucker was fun and we got great advancement on Ziggler/Otis! “Smitten with my kitten” is an all time great line. Otis snapping was awesome. Roman & Goldberg was short but sweet. Looking forward to this Hoss Fight! Awesome Smackdown best WWE show of 2020! Loved it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NintendoLogic Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 PWO's favorite wrestler thinks all the indy guys whose livelihoods have been wrecked by the COVID-19 outbreak should just stop being poor. In addition to being terrible at wrestling, he's also terrible at social media. And him moving to Florida wasn't the shot in the dark he's making it out to be. He went down there because he received a contract solely based on his size without working a day in the indies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirEdger Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 Well, maybe now Braun showed us with that tweet why he didn't get that main event push after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 He also doesn't understand how how his own contract works, he told someone else on Twitter he isn't getting paid now since he's not working and that would only be the case if he already made more than his downside guarantee (about 1.2 million). Dude just signed one of those "we're afraid of AEW" deals last summer, no way he's out there rationing out ramen noodles until shows start up again.
