Wrestling Thread 6: It's Poppy • Page 817

Last night seemed like Hulk Hogan cosplay for sure

 

Stadium stampede would have been better as a dynamite main event

 

They’re best friends, surprised it hasn’t happened yet. I wonder if meyer being on last night means he might help chris in a future match or something.

 

I thought it was a great PPV - only bad match was the Cody match and that’s pretty good for a 4 hr show

 

LOVED the PPV last night. Can’t decide my MOTN: the amazing 3 way, the shockingly good tag match (I figured it would be a styles clash), the balls out Cage/Page throw down OR the “fuck you, Serena Deeb rules” coming out party which was her and Riho.

Hell of a night…Cody not withstanding.

 

It’s crazy how much I’ve soured on Cody since Brody squashed him for the TNT title. They really should have had him off tv for a good while after that. I didn’t even watch his match vs Ogogo. How did Ogogo look?

 

Loved the ppv in general and i had almost forgotten how much more fun wrasslin is with fans there (whether this early this is a good thing..well that's another issue).

I was not too much into Mox/Kingston vs Bucks tbh. I love Mox as a character but recently I find him kinda boring in-ring. The Bucks rn almost have going-away heat with me..dunno why, but they annoy me.

Loved Sting, Jungle Boy, chants, and Hangman.

 

damn, ric is killing the business with shit like that.

 

raw is so bad

 

Am I reading this live blog right? The women got a 2:00 challenge and Shayna, one of the most dominant womens wrestlers even in NXT, just lost to her manager?

 

Yes but Shayna was distracted by magic pyro, so that makes it better right?

 

Watched a couple minutes of raw. The new announcer seems a lot better than Adnan. Still kind of weird to just throw the new guy out there. When you think about it, we had a lot of time to get used to the voices of everyone else before they had the job.

Also, New Day’s gear was awesome

 

It’s clear WWE is just in a holding pattern till fans return in July

 

So Raw creative will get good again in July?

 

Probably not but we will probably have some new feuds maybe

 

Man I feel like I’ve been saying something along these lines for years.

 

Poppy on NXT next week

 

You'd think they would be ramping up for Summerslam, getting solid 2-3 months feuds ready to blow off in front of a full crowd. Instead...RAW is doing what its been doing since the brand split

 

I caught a couple of those A&E jawns and man they brought back some memories. The Warrior/Hulk match is definitely one of my earliest memories, and then seeing the Austin/Rock rivalry was the culmination of my wrestling fandom. I think it wasn’t too long after that I stopped watching with any regularity
