They're better at ladders, but know they can inflict more punishment overall in a Steel Cage? That's my guess.



or matt's afraid of being broken again? The only ladder match they've had since was Wrestlemania, where they had the element of surprise, but kayfabe Shesaro know that getting broken is his "weakness", so Matt's worried about them planning for it?


random theory

 

Ladies & gents, I give you Kenny King

 

I have that shirt and I love it

 

Tied for 4th in the BOSJ pick em. Doubt I have a chance of winning, but it feels pretty good doing so well so far.

 

Have today off, just gonna sit around and watch wrestling all day. Starting off with a rewatch of the WWE UK championship match then gonna watch the latest PROGRESS chapter.

Does anyone subscribe to the Highspots Network?

 

In the words of the pictured Iron Sheik,

"FACK"

 

What does Dean need to do to finally get one?

That Jericho one is so good.

I'm surprised they haven't done a Shield 3 pack yet

 

Guess the Women's Tournament is called the Mae Young Classic

 

Never owned a pop but I could be convinced to put Sheikie baby on my desk at work

 

I cannot express how happy I am that WWE went with honoring Mae Young as opposed to Moolah with the name of the women's tournament. PHEW.

 

I need this to happen / fantasy booking from Brandon Stroud

"
Please (please please please please please please please please please please) have this Paul Heyman promo and the following match against Karl Anderson set up the formation of the Bálor Club with Heyman as the mouthpiece, and Paul turning on Lesnar to transition the belt to Finn. I know that’s such a fucking pipe dream, but man, you’d improve everyone involved. You’d:

• give Finn Bálor someone to talk him up and cut promos for him, which he desperately needs
• give The Club a purpose, any purpose at all
• give Paul Heyman clients that would allow him to actually be part of Raw
• create an excuse for Lesnar to lose to somebody Finn’s size, because he got jumped by 3-4 dudes
• babyface Brock Lesnar, which could be a fun and easy way to give him a fun final run before he’s completely bored again and leaves
• all the merch sales in the world"

 

PROGRESS announced the draws for their SSS16 tournament. First rounds got some good matchups, but second round on should have some killer matchups.

 

I get that all the pops are the same size, but enzo being taller than Cass due to his hair is wrong

 

the ringer sucks but this is fun

 

I shot myself into a work and think I kinda wanna root for Jinder.

 

i can see it now. in two years the discussion will be "rank the all time great wwe champions

1. steve austin
2. jinder mahal
3. the rock
"

 

I just think it'd be funny to see Jinder knock this run out of the park just to see some of you eat crow aha.

 

i think its safe to say that everyone wants jinder to be great in his run

 

Theory: Jinder is also a test for a Roman heel turn. To see if you can make someone such a heel(both legit and "meta") and get a successful baby face turn FROM the fans. Ie. A Daniel Bryan type love. Yeah, The Rock kinda, but to see if it could work in modern WWE
