The Devastation Corporation really are quite amazing.

I think that's why I quit watching UFC. Too much to watch between Ultimate Fighter, UFC on FX, UFC on FOX, PPVs, UFC on Whatever Channel They're On Today.

He was my favourite back when I used to watch, hopefully he will make a comeback! Man from watching wrestlemania, raw and smackdown the past couple of weeks there's so many new wrestlers. Nice to see the Undertaker and Triple H are still there though.
There seem to be more joke characters in the roster too. The American who hates immigrants and his sidekick with the epic tash are hilarious. I quite like Ziggler, his weird gf and his huge bodyguard who just stands in the same spot looking mean are hilarious too. Think my favourites are team hell no though. Although they seem to be everybody's favourite :lol. Not really sure what to make of the shield, they pop up everywhere just randomly attacking everyone.
Well, I don't know if I feel like it has jumped the shark, because I still enjoy watching. I wouldn't consider my self a hardcore fan of the sport though. I just have no interest in getting that deep into it. Sometimes I'll see a show and want to, but then I just get bored. I watch all the UFC shows though. I just have WWE and TNA for wrestling, I used to watch a lot more.
Wrestling is a really fun thing to talk about on the internet. Fantasy booking, predictions, gifs, divas and what not. MMA doesn't have that. I'm not saying I like wrestling more than MMA, its just more fun in this type situation.

Apparently Fandango's new finisher is
:|
He beat Ted Jr. with it at the Glasgow house show yesterday.
I've tried to get into UFC, but (and I know this is going to sound weird coming from me) I honestly found it to be a bit too brutal. I don't like watching people get KO'd and I especially don't like the way fighters go in for the kill after they've hit a knock out blow.

So you're saying it's not facial hair?

I'm sure his choice was between that and the Overdrive.

I enjoy UFC a lot because of the unpredictability of it. However, on the flip side, it's starting to get way too diluted (MMA in general on TV) which hey, WWE is guilty of.
His muttonchops Wolverine combination is interesting way to try to get heat.
It's certainly....something.

Watching the CHIKARA show, Saturyne's getting pretty good, definitely showing a lot of improvement since her debut and only had one minor, inconsequential botch in her match against Kobald, who got a ton of heat using moves from the John Cena war crate and hitting Saturyne with Sara Del Rey's finisher, the Royal Butterfly. Saturyne looks a whole lot more confident in the ring lately and, like in her match with Touchdown, she does a great job of evoking sympathy from the crowd. Also, while her offence isn't all that ambitious, she's pretty much got it down to a T, especially her drop-kick. This was probably her best showing yet, and in front of CHIKARA's biggest crowd to date, just a really fun opening match.
Kobald spears the crap out of her to start things off;
She was looking extra fine at Kaiju Big Battle as a piece of asparagus!!!
Also WTF at this
@MikeQuackenbush 1h
For your collection - get the MP4 of my last CHIKARA match right from Smart Mark Video and start watching
I really hope this is storyline. I know Quack is in bad shape and was walking with a cane backstage at the Wrestle Con show but he can't be done.

I can definitely see the appeal, but I think I'd prefer something where the matches go longer and have a more ordered feel to them. I should probably just stick to shootstyle wrestling. <3 BattlArts.
Wow, that really sucks if Quack is done - I don't know if it would be a storyline, considering the unfinished business he has with Jigsaw. Also, if Quack were to be able to choose his last match, I'd hazard a guess that he'd think teaming with Liger was a pretty good match to retire on - plus, he came back early from back surgery for the chance to team with Liger and the laundry list of permanent injuries he's having to deal with are piling up. The Observer mentioned he'd been wrestling with an inoperable wrist injury for 20 months, plus combined with his numerous and increasingly frequent back injuries, the ribs he broke a while back and that real scary concussion he got a few years ago, perhaps it is time for him to bow out.

Love the Bryce gif. He retweeted me twice last week and I've been walking on air ever since.
I guess he also broke his tibia on the guardrail in the tag match. Hopefully he's just taking some well deserved time off and will return in due time. Just in case......Mike Quackenbush appreciation week!!!

I'm not feeling it. The crowd is bad and show has too much aces and eights.
Pretty much this. And if a guy wins two or three in a row, they're UNSTOPPABLE. There's really no one to get behind for an extended period of time. GSP was the closest thing to being unbeatable for a while there.
My god. Every post has a gif in it.

Vegan? Where have I heard this before....
ECW on TNN 2/18/00
TO THE BACK. Cyrus talks about the mistake of letting Dusty talk and then strips RVD of his championship. Well, he actually says he's going to force ECW to strip him of the title. Lol, he gives a promo for the show people are already watching since ECW kept complaining about not getting any promotion. But more importantly, 57 minutes until ROLLLLLLERRRRJJAAAAMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!! Cyrus is the best, even though I think I would hate him if it were a TNA gimmick.
Doring and Roadkill vs Nova/Chris Chetti
But first...
TO THE BACK. Masato Tanaka cut an angry Japanese promo.
Chetti's televised in ring return. He's been out for months. Chetti sucks, Doring sucks, Roadkill isn't very good, Nova was basically the one man SAT. This is what I remember of dying ECW. Shit like this. And Chilly Willy. And Belvis. And Scotty Anton. Roadkill missed a springboard Superfly splash to the floor through a table. Doring pinned Chetti with a double arm DDT. The Impact Players came out and laid both teams out.

TO THE BACK. Mike Awesome is going to kill Tanaka again.
CW Anderson vs Super Crazy
CW was with Belvis and Lou E. Dangerously. Idk, this show is really not doing it for me. And I like Super Crazy and CW, but this feels like such a D-level show. Instead, I'll just gif the interesting things.

That was pleasure overload, minus the slight homophobia.
Love Daniels. "As everybody knows, a Canadian's opinion is only worth three quarters of everyone else's. That's science!" (or something like that) Really good stuff in that segment. Haha.
Ooo...this is pretty cool.
Jesus. Bet that hurt.
