I'm watching RAW for the first time. This crowd is simply amazing. It gave me chills being a part of it live, but watching it back it really is like no other WWE crowd I've seen in the modern era.


Love the "Yes, yes, yes, yes OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO yes!" for Punk.

 

[G-Fex]

Batista is the man who can bring change and glory.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

The Animal Batista, going up and destroying the "YES" Meister known as Daniel Bryanson.

Then AJ pledges her allegiance with Brotista.

Yup.

Listened to the Fire Burns on my way to work .. I miss this theme. Don't get me wrong I like Cult of Personality but I love Punk's old theme

Punk hated it.

 

[Kyoufu]

Punk hated it.

Punk sold out.

(where does it say he hated it?)

 

[evil ways]

I'm quite okay with Cult of Personality. This Fire was getting stale after 5 years.

One person who is in dire need of a new popworthy theme though? This guy:

Fuck no. The current metal version fits perfectly not just with the character but the Yes Yes Yes chants from fans.

Pro wrestling outfit TNA Entertainment has pinned down a multi-year extension with Spike TV that could include additional television projects beyond its weekly Impact Wrestling series, according to Dixie Carter, TNA Entertainment president.

Spike, which debuted TNA programming in 2005, will remain the exclusive home for TNA programming - including the wrestling company's Thursday night weekly series Impact Wrestling -- as part of the deal.

Terms of agreement were not disclosed.

TNA's Impact Wrestling has delivered strong viewership ratings for Spike over the past seven years. The series, which features such wrestlers as Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, Jeff Hardy, Kurt Angle, Sting, James Storm and Rob Van Dam, is averaging 1.7 million viewers thus far in 2012, ranking it among the male-targeted network's most watched series.

Carter told Multichannel News that the Spike extension will further help build the 10-year old TNA through additional branding opportunities, although she would not reveal specifics. Carter didn't rule out the possibility of another TNA-based show on Spike or additional TNA-branded TV projects.

"We look forward to working with Spike to help us build and extend the TNA brand," Carter said.

The deal comes on the heels of TNA's announcement that it will distribute a June pay-per-view event marking the company's 10th anniversary. The event, Slammiversary 2012, will air June 10 and will originate from the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex arena, the company said.

Punk sold out.

(where does it say he hated it?)

I don't have the link handy but I've definitely read it as well. Which is a shame, the song works great. Though I did like his old South of Heaven days...

 

[G-Fex]

Didn't Randy Orton hate his "In my Light" Theme?

 

[Kaladin]

Just face the facts here, TNA will never die. Embrace the company we know we all deserve.

IIRC he said he hated it once on twitter.

Well there you go.

Pretty good lol

but it's not even that much of Total Nonstop Action!
There's too many promos and stuff.

 

[Nocturnowl]

Didn't Randy Orton hate his "In my Light" Theme?

Yeah, I think he claimed that it sounded too much like a "good guy theme" for him.

So, I drive a good deal to a nice quiet library to take a practice MCAT test, and the damn website is down. My life is joke WrassleGAF.

It was quite simply the most euphoric and engaging live audience for a televised wrestling event in the past decade. And you were a part of making it happen.

Shame that Vince is ashamed of being a wrestling promoter and loathes wrestling fans who tell him what's over so naturally all of the highlights from this week will be edited to drain all of that amazing energy away.

(I'm still not buying the news about a T-Shirt until it actually happens as it flies in the face of how Smackdown was booked on Tuesday.)

 

[markatisu]

Saw on Twitter that Bryan YES shirts will be available by the end of next week

And people thought Vince did not notice

i'm buying two. resisted the temptation to buy a fan made one, because if there's one thing i know Vince doesn't ignore, it's merch sales.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

he will probably debut the shirt on Raw... and it will be glorious.

of course!

Batista is the man who can bring change and glory.

i'd rather they bring up Claudio (Antonio Cesaro) as a heel. he's going to work so well within the WWE style. having dozens of variations on one recogniseable thing is almost tailoured to work well.

i haven't seen any of his work as Antonio, but he's still doing every variation of a european you can imagine right?

 

[G-Fex]

that is if they don't fuck up Ambrose or Rollins or Kassius

 

[The Incarnation]

Batista had a pretty awesome intro. Heck , I remember lots of people thought that was the only good thing about him. He got alot more respect once he became Brotista though.

"Give me my spotlight!"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fiBN0SC4Hg&feature=related

His first was the best...

 

[Kaladin]

Is it just me, or did Alberto Del Rio get a huge babyface pop on his return? I'm not just talking about the Si chants either.

 

[DiscoJon]

Still one of the best things that Batista has ever... EEEEEEEEVAAAARRR done...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGOKAVPYZOw

 

[plagiarize]

i'll have to track down some Kassius matches. is it still essentially the Hero gimmick he had in the indies?

 

[G-Fex]

He did

He must stop that eeeeeeeviillllll Sheamus.

Sheamus hasn't done anything facey in a while

well he was interrupting the most hated heel in Miami.

Multi year deal? TNA will never go away. I guess the Hogan and Bischoff rumor was false.

You really are dedicated to your hero!

Well in theory you could bring Cesare and Ohno up as a tag team and be D.Brine's YES men.

 

[FallingEdge]

I don't care how ugly the YES shirts are, I am buying them.

 

[plagiarize]

'Ohno' ranks up there with the worst ring names i've heard. they better repackage him. the only thing that would be worse is if he debuts with green hair and a purple outfit.

 

[sajj316]

Same here. Consider it bought!

Actually it makes sense with the fact they are giving him a TKO gimmick, and the promo he cut in FCW was petty good. There are people on the current roster with shitty names, Alex Riley, McGuilaguity, Tyson Kidd. Ohno is good as hell a name.

And you know what name is worse than Cassius Ohno - Chris Hero.

 

[BoboBrazil]

Apparently Jose Canseco appears on Impact tonight and starts an angle with Hogan. Looks like they put that Scott Steiner money to good use.

Yeah, the only way we fans have to get a guy over permantly is by beating Cena's merc sales. Everyone that wants Bryan to succeed, buy! that! shirt!

And one for your momma too! YES! YES!

 

[Seraphis Cain]

YES! will be my first wrasslin' shirt in well over a decade.

D-Bry to be the next Cena

Knocking Tyson Kidd off to being the next Stone Cold

 

[Nocturnowl]

Well at least you took the initiative to do such a thing in the first place, that doesn't sound like the actions of a joke to me!

Is it just me, or did Alberto Del Rio get a huge babyface pop on his return? I'm not just talking about the Si chants either.

I would have popped for the entrance theme and Ricardo myself, maybe others were doing the same. On that note Ricardo was at the top of his announcing game on Raw.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Why does my boy D.Brine look about 16 in this?

 

[G-Fex]

Him and AJ are really underage

he tried to cover it with a beard

Well no, your helping Bryan out fiscally though. If you want him to succeed permantly every city from here to MITB PPV has to keep chanting 'YES!YES!YES!' Which they will do as Bryan has really said to the audience every time you say 'YES!' your pissing me off. The audience will be all over it thinking they have pissed him off.
