Wrestling Thread [Archived]

Starting off the thread with our awards. We'll make this an annual thing. It went really well. We had close to 30 people submit lists. Almost every #1 pick was by an overwhelming margin. I fucked up and lost the numbers, so that's on me. AJ had about 20 more votes than Kenny and he had about 40 more than Charlotte and Chris. Biggest takeaways from the list were that The Revival need to be on the main roster like, a year ago, Alexa Bliss might be the most improved wrestler in the WWE and that you guys like Titus about as much as the folks on Reddit.

Screw you guys for not voting Eva in on anything.

I'm not sure this naming convention for the thread will last the night.

Feel free to post matches, gifs, shit you love, as long as it isn't porn (@Drew Beringer)

@bones is a dirty #heel who is going to get his comeuppance.

Love you guys to death. Lets have fun with it.

CORBIN SUCKS

 

Woooooooooooo

 

oooh 24! ill take it.

 

The porn guy is here

 

Wheres the Acacia Strain final results?

 

Dumpster fire where that band belongs.

 

In it to win it

 

Let's go Cena

Roman sucks

 

Unbelieveable

 

this thread just dumped the old thread over the top rope

 

Nice

 

As long as either @Oddpac87 gets Sheamus at #8 and/or whoever comes out at #9 eliminates him, I'll be pleased.

 

For some clarity, the reason this thread was made is because we were likely to hit the archive mark at a weird point in the year. The Royal Rumble is basically the start of the new season, and a perfect time to start fresh. Bones is now a babyface with Universal Title aspirations, PPP is going to make a surprise appearance in the Rumble and Mick's shoes still cost more than your house.

 

I used to post a bit on ap but have mostly been lurking here on chorus... I've mostly been paying attention to the PPVs, and you guys just got me hype enough to watch a Raw for the first time months. Looking forward to the Rumble. Wish I were going

 

If you download the WWE app, for the love of god, shut off notifications. Holy shit it is fucking annoying.

 

Hoping for someone good at 11!

 

Breakout of the Year:

1. Alexa Bliss
   
2. Jack Gallagher
   
3. Braun Strowman

What a hilarious mix of people. One is the most classic WWE character there is in Strouman, while the other two are variations of what WWE has done before, but, seem far more unique. But all definitely stand apart from a standard WWE character like Rollins/Reigns/Jericho/etc

 

I voted for Eva

 

That...doesn't seem right....

 

Its a random draw. Take it up with lady luck.

 

I meant the spelling lol

 

27s a pretty good number I hear.

 

mad i didn't get in the rumble drawing
