Steph and Triple H are advertised for Raw next week, I would guess that the Dr. Phil guest spot is going to be some sort of McMahon family counseling.

 

Oh brother.

 

It disappoints me how much [ROH Supercard of Honor spoiler] Colt Cabana's return to ROH to challenge Jay Lethal for the title was overlooked this weekend.

 

Because no one cares.

And I like RoH. Been to many shows in Chicagoland, but c'mon. No one really gives a shit.

 

It was definitely one of the more exciting things to happen.

 

I really hope someone else ends up with that belt soon.

 

I don't think he'll win, but it's really cool that he's back there. Colt and Punk (and Chris Hero) are the guys that got me hooked on the indies.

 

Thanks guys

 

Rosenberg and Shoemaker are both awesome. Dave bought me a beer so he is face 4 life in my book.

 

Los Angeles, CA (April 5, 2016) – Erebus Pictures, the genre specialty label formed by Multi Media Magnate and KISS co-founder Gene Simmons and WWE Studios, announced today that Wesley Snipes (The Expendables 3), Anne Heche (Wild Card), Dave Annable (Brothers and Sisters) and WWE Superstar Seth Rollins are on board to star in the John Stockwell directed thriller TEMPLE.

TEMPLE, written by Matt Savelloni (Exile to Babylon), and directed by John Stockwell (In The Blood), follows a team of trained operatives consisting of Snipes, Heche, Annable and Rollins, who find themselves trapped inside an isolated military compound after its artificial intelligence is suddenly shut down—and then begin to experience strange and horrific phenomena.

Erebus Pictures plans to use WWE’s extensive platforms from weekly TV shows, including WWE’s flagship programs, Monday Night Raw® and SmackDown®, digital, social media and WWE Network, to market the film.

 

Ugh....how terrible does that sound?

I need Rollins back in the ring and fast. Dude can go and makes everyone look great. I'd like him to take it off Reigns. Imagine the pop!

 

Just listened to Cheap Heat. I'll def be checking out Shoemaker's new podcast and I'll give Cheap Heat another shot next week but I'm not expecting much out of either going forward, especially Cheap Heat. How can you do a podcast about wrestling when you don't even watch the program half the time?

 

Just because he doesn't watch it live because he likes to fast forward through commercials doesn't mean he doesn't watch it. I get what you're saying but thats small potatoes right now

 

Hard to believe that WM30 was only two years ago. It's reasons like the end of that show that keep me watching wrestling. When WWE is on their game, they really knock it out of the park.

 

getting around to watching some of the mania matches. ladder match is good, but last years was definitely better. womens title match is solid, but that finish is way worse than i remember it. charlotte really did not sell that superplex at all, and sasha should have submitted becky after that. shane vs taker was far better live and if it had made sense for taker to win then that finish would've been great.

 

WM was pretty solid over all. Nothing amazing, but nothing terrible.

Anyone see NXT Takeover: Dallas? Holy hell. What a show. Vastly superior WRESTLING. But Wrestlemania is an event.

 

I love that.

 

Can we just talk about how great the WWE Network actually is? Never did I think I'd have almost every single PPV match I'd ever want to rewatch at my fingertips. I watched so many Kurt Angle and Hardy Boys matches last week - and the tag match on Raw where Triple H tears his quad. What a time to be alive.

 

If you're a wrestling fan, it's the greatest thing in the history of the world. I actually dig some of the original content. The Monday Night Wars is good TV. I like Table for 3. The Countdown show kills time. Most of the WWE Docs are solid.

I just wish RAW would be available the following day.

 

Literally the only thing missing from the Network

 

They wouldn't even have to archive it. I just want it available for the next 24 hours the delete it.

I live in the Eastern Time Zone, but come Daylight Savings, I go to the Atlantic Time Zone (one more east). RAW doesn't start until 9. I teach so I'm in bed by 10:30. I'd like to just skim through the show and watch what I want (mainly the main event).

 

I go back and watch Mania just for the ladder match. I love hearing the pops Sami and Owens got.

 

Yeah I dig Monday Night Wars, Countdown, Rivalries, and Wrestlemania Rewind, and of course all the interview shows like Unfiltered with Renee Young, SCSA's podcast,and Legends with JBL. Also WWE24 is always great.

How is The Edge and Christian Show? Been thinking about giving it a shot.

 

Is the line-up for NXT worth watching tonight? I might just call it quits after LU tonight.
