NintendoLogic Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 Oh, it's true. It's damn true. Anyway, here's an exciting development in the world of pro wrestling, the king of sports and the sport of kings: If this happens, I will send HHH a fruit basket like those dorks on Reddit.

El-P Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 They are trying really hard to make me watch some WWE next year, uh ? (I haven't watched any since Royal Rumble apart from clips) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 And so Regal is coming back to WWE with .... a Vice President title. Not sure what it entails it term of what his role will be, but this is not just "coming back to work as a coach in NXT, including with his son". Not to say it wasn't predictable, but still, it's a pretty big coup for Triple H to get a guy in that position who just spent 8 months with the talents of the opposition. Gotta say too, talking about Vince in a "whatever he's going through, he was been excellent to me" way is very tone deaf. Yeah, he's been sexually harassing/assaulting women and paid them with the company's money to shut them off, but hey, he kept on paying him while he was in AEW because of his talent contract overlapping a bit (as opposed to his employee contract), so he's a good guy. This whole "I treat people like they treat me" is quite problematic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Foley (and pretty much everyone else who made money from Vince come to think of it) has taken the exact same stance since the allegations against McMahon first came out. I find it particularly hypocritical coming from Mick Foley, who has always portrayed himself as some sort of champion of women’s causes and vocal left wing crusader. Unless it’s against the guy that put millions of dollars in his pocket, in which case he can’t say anything, because he didn’t see it happen.

KawadaSmile Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 G00NTHER vs Brock to me shows just how much they fuck with our Austrian giant. And with all honesty, Brock doesn't seem like one who'd shy away from getting his chest chopped to bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMJ Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 I'm guessing Brock sees a match like Gunther/Sheamus and thinks, "Yea, they're beating the hell out of each other, but they're doing it 'the way it should be.'" Now, compare that to the infamous Brock/Braun incident and I think Brock rightfully thought, "This clumsy motherfucker just gave me a shoot knee to the jaw that I couldn't see coming. That's not 'working stiff,' it's taking liberties." Now, the booking is not something I have super high hopes for but I'm also not going to be naive about the likelihood of a Lesnar win. Its WrestleMania and ostensibly Brock is a babyface coming out of his feuds with Roman and Lashley. The crowd that night will want to see Lesnar win and pop accordingly. Gunther is also a guy that, theoretically, doesn't "need" a win any more than Owens "needed" to beat Steve Austin last year. I know the argument is that a win for Gunther would "make" him and all that, but considering this would be the biggest match of his career anyway and that you can re-heat him relatively quickly, I don't think its a career-ender for Gunther to take the L. Again, it's not necessarily what I would want to see, but the booking of the WWE for the past few years has basically been that Reigns and Lesnar are God Tier and everyone else is a full notch below. Even in a loss, Gunther holding his own would put him at the same level as, say, Lashley, Rollins, Owens, Orton, and Drew and that's just kinda the ceiling for everybody not named Reigns and Lesnar for the foreseeable future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cringed about that one too (not the only time with Foley, which comes off more disappointing, lately about Tyrus). Lance Storm had the best take of all : Vince did not make them all this money, *they and their work* made Vince a billionaire. So they should not feel the way they do, especially in this context.
