Then you're just getting started. That final build to Ultima Lucha was awesome.

 

Lol the boos for Oney Lorcano on NXT this week were SO loud at the arena. Long live El Vagabundo.

 

NXTs after takeovers are always the worst. 40-50 minutes of filler, and the matches you do get are always lower on the card.

wait nevermind I just got to El Vagabondo. This is the best takeover ever.

 

Someone needs a heel turn. And it can't be Sasha again.

 

I feel so bad for Ricochet. Dude would probably be signed somewhere if it weren't for Lucha extending this season.

 

I need to start watching LU. It looks great.

 

I thought he left LU ?

 

He did, his contract was for 3 seasons, but since the third season has a mid-season break, he still can't sign with any other televised company until the season finale of LU season 3

 

Ahh ok. That makes sense. I hope he heads to NXT. The dude is a stud. It's funny though, I'm not a fan of the Puma character.

 

He also was considering going back to Lucha for another season, until this mid-season break hit.

 

Lucha kind of lost my attention but I'd like to at least get through S1 since everyone says S2 is pretty money

 

Meltzer's scores are something.

I just started up again after a few weeks off. Almost done with season one.

 

Shane McMahon with the highest rated match on WM. In 2017. These are certainly interesting times.

 

@Drew Beringer ^^

 

AJ can get a good match out of everyone, and this last WM proves it

And of course the demon paint is a chase variant ugh

 

Well, they'll all look good next to my KO and Trips ones at work.

 

AJ can carry anyone, but Shane definitely deserves his share of the credit. He left 10 years of his age at the door for 10 minutes, that DDT was so crisp. That match wouldn't have gotten the 4 stars without what Shane brought to the story.

 

well im flattered that im now part of the thread name

 

Do they by chance have Triple H and Kane pops? I like to collect those things and those have been my two favorites for a while.

 

Lesnar/Goldberg getting a 3.5 is generous.

 

There is def a Kane one. Don't know about Trips. I only have an Eva Marie one, because it is the only one that matters.

It gets 3* just for Brock jumping over the spear.

 

Yeah, calling it the same as KO/Jericho is...yeah...

Though honestly, most of the grades feel pretty generous.

 

Yah by how meltz has been talking about it he is giving them credit for putting on the best match possible given their circumstances aka Goldbergs inabilty to wrestle
