Wrestling Thread 6: It's Poppy • Page 65

Btw, it’s the same shit with Ricochet/Brock/Drew. Obviously there’s no way Ricochet wins just based on the fact that Drew/Brock is the Mania main event. But who cares since it’s a Saudi show. Does ricochet last longer than 5 seconds?

 

we call this the “old jersey”

 

That's why I don't see it as bad booking in the slightest. There's so much storytelling that can happen between now, Takeover and Mania. To say something like "fucking terrible booking once again by this company" is hyperbolic beyond compare!

 

It's a fun 5 seconds at least

 

We are deff getting Goldberg/Corbin

 

Corbin is going to retire Goldberg, isn't he?

 

Timothy Thatcher likely signed with NXT

 

I don't know much about Thatcher, but if the pictures of him I've seen are anything to go by, I wanna see him in a match with Oney Lorcan ASAP.

 

I’ve been listening to the new day podcast and hearing how much big E wants it I hope it’s him. But since it’s Saudi I’m sure they found a way to prop up Lex Luger or something

 

I'm excited to see Brock hurl ricochet into the 45th row.

 

What's with the good place curse words? Fork, shirt? Chorus cracking down on cursing?

 

i hate to play Drew's advocate but little makes me believe that there is anything more to Belair/Ripley than they're showing us. nuanced booking across multibrand stories isnt really something that there is any precedent for. i dont think Vince, Paul, or anyone with a major voice on the production of Raw gives half of a shit about what ripple effects it may have on NXT so it's probably up to HHH and co to book around it, and idk if beating Rhea who is already ostensibly the underdog going in to this match is gonna fly.

 

Isnt lex Luger wheelchair bound? Or was at one point?

 

Yep he's in a wheelchair these days

 

not diggin rhea's promo on raw. love her!!! buuuuut she was alot more animated than i'm used to seeing on nxt. look at the last few ripley promos on nxt, and then look at the one last night. last night's just felt off to me.

 

Fuck. Shit. Piss.

Did you install some Chrome add-on that changes curse words to "fork" and "shirt"?

 

Fuck

 

That and the fact that seems like they want legacy acts over there

 

I could see mania being a triple threat with Bianca, Rhea, and Charlotte. Gives them an out for having Charlotte get pinned. Have Charlotte challenge on another show and lose clean so she still has Mania clout.

 

I’m actually pumped for mania because I can finally enjoy it again instead of hate-watching it. So when dumb stuff happens I can laugh instead fee

 

I wanna try not being exhausted by the time WM starts this year, but god knows that's probably not going to happen.

 

I mostly didn't enjoy mania last year with it being the fifth show I attended in four days. Only good thing was meeting folks from here.

 

Lol this is one way to go for endorsements

 

You're welcome
