Wrestling Thread 6: It's Poppy • Page 470

Sonya and Mandy thing sounds good, but where does it go?

 

Sonya probably wants time off - not just because of the stuff last week but she’s mentioned in the past wanting to do other things

 

Man the thunder dome was terrible looking

 

Is the thunderdome how they are gonna do all their shows going forward? Just smackdown? Or was it a one off thing?

 

Did they do the Fiend popping up on all the screens yet cuz if not why?

 

I heard all until October? Probably not right

 

they paid for 2 months of it as I understand

 

weird

also apparently its live? I mean I know they just made it clear they are okay with grown men exposing themselves to under aged boys, but that still seems like a disaster waiting to happen

 

It’s just adds nothing to the broadcast and actively detracts from it - dead blank stares that the wrestlers and broadcasters don’t acknowledge at all

 

i think someone in here (or somewhere) said it was about a 3 second delay. I haven’t watched but I wonder how weird that is for big spots / end of matches but they probably try to avoid showing the screens at those moments. It’d be like “what a victory! ... and NOW the audience knows!”

 

Well, and this is a company that routinely makes 50 camera cuts in a 30 second span...so just run the whole show on a 5s delay and if something happens, cut to the hard cam to cover it.

 

AEW needs their own version of Total Divas just so we can follow Moxley behind the scenes

Past few days have been hectic at the Moxley household, Renee has been doing a photoshoot for her cookbook, there's food all over in the house, Moxley doing 5-6 trips to the supermarket and messaging Renee "What is a shallot?"

 

Just was about to post a link to that podcast. Whole thing is good, especially Mox talking about the G1.

 

Are we doing a takeover or summer slam card?

 

BURN IT DOWWWWWWWN

 

lol that reminds me that last night while watching Survivor I realized that Elias looks A LOT like Rupert.

for those who know who that is. Not sure of the venn diagram mix of wrestling and Survivor fans lol

 

Is Elias still out with injury?

 

hell yeah breezango

 

Wow turn on wrestling for the first time in months and within 5 minutes Punishment Martinez wins a title

 

I'm so happy

 

Can that please be the last we see Dream

 

They put the belt on Punishment Martinez? Every day we stray further from god

 

Pat has charisma but says the dumbest fucking stuff

 

Why is McAfee in those shorts?

Have seen a lot of people who have looked way worse in the ring with way more experience, though. Kind of love McAfee’s overexaggerated punches. Reminds me of the Rock’s. A thousand times better than Shane’s

 

It’s weird to me that with how many wrestlers who will bust out a Figure 4, no one attempts to go for Charlotte’s Figure 8
