Wrestling Thread 3: Dan vs. Cam • Page 465

God damn this shit warms my ice cold heart.

 

"full time" makes me think both shows. It'll give them a chance to make her more of an attraction. She doesn't have to do house shows or wrestle every night.

Though, they'd be dumb not to put her on house shows in some capacity. They've been struggling to get people into house shows without Cena, and she'd draw a lot of people back in.

 

To be fair, would an 8 year old even know about the accusations against Enzo? Seems like a tough age to try to explain that to a kid. He probably just thinks he's injured, right?

 

This was the smarkiest kid ever. The kid was calling spots and giving me wrestler histories (he told me all about Kelly Kelly for some reason.). He even called the falcon arrow. lol. He felt like the youngest /sc user ever. Felt like he should have had some idea. But rape is kinda complicated.

Then again, he didn't know who Cody Rhodes was.

 

I think I posted about it!!!




Also I haven't read any of the drama in here about Ronda, but honestly I think she'll be as good as she needs to be in-ring. Which for a match against Steph, she doesn't need to be that good.

What I am worried about with her is the multi-year fulltime element of her contract. Because once she wins the belt, and her reign needs to start coming to a close, what do you do with her? Like, will she still be kayfabe-Brock level, or do they plan to eventually have her just be "another wrestler" on the roster once the novelty of "HOLY SHIT IT'S RONDA ROUSEY" wears off. Can she ever be a midcard feud? Because that's what makes or breaks her contribution and keeps us from her just being the center of attention for the women's division for her entire contract.

 

she can fall down to 2nd and 3rd storyline... yeah i think of it like lesnar. Is lesnar going to be in the midcard and feud with Tye Dillinger? never. But can they cool him/her off a bit with a secondary storyline from time to time, yeah why not.

I mean, some day down the road can Rousey be treated like one of the girls? Maybe, but it's a unique situation here with Rousey. Unprecedented.

 

She does nothing wrong.

I can agree with that, sir.

 

Maybe I'm out of it but the wwe obsession with Maria menounos is such a head scratcher to me. Is entertainment tonight still a thing?

 

Rey Mysterio

Fun fact: i still maintain a spam email address that used to be my regular address in 5th grade that involved rey's name.

 

She genuinely seems to love WWE, though, so I'll give her a slight pass.

 

She does seem like she’s genuinely a huge fan, but her voice still irks me

 

Maria comes down to host hall of fames and pre shows and shit. She obviously really cares.

 

She was going bananas during Takeover. Definitely a fan

 

Weren’t they planning a children tv show for the network with NXT people back when Bayley was NXT champ? And Izzy was gonna be on it..

 

Three EC qualification matches tonight: Matt vs Elias, Cena vs Finn, Last Man Standing match between Kane and Braun.

 

Cena/Balor should be great

 

sad if that means Balor isn't in EC, but he's won big TV matches before so we'll see

 

Wonder what the other three will be. I'm assuming the EC match will be for a wrestlemania title shot against Brock.

So guessing we'll also get... Roman vs Bray, Seth vs Jordan and uh... Miz vs Apollo?

Then EC match can be Elias vs Finn vs Braun vs Roman vs Seth vs Miz

 

Great ending on this one.

 

RAW's new color scheme is gonna be red and white with a new (Papa Roach) theme song

 

Honestly didn't know Papa Roach was still a band and was really hoping they got back together just to record a new Raw theme.

 

Vince has his finger on the pulse of new music. He definitely knows his fanbase.

 

Miz/Reigns rematch tonight
