Thanks, bean. Just adding variety, man.

The 5th post needs to be Booker T related

DON'T SIT BY ME IF YOU'RE A CENA FAN

This kid's already a Seth Rollins tier promo guy. Give him a few years with the E, and he'll run that joint.

 

[Hasney]

Now this is a thread I can tolerate

 

[Serpentine]

I was kinda hoping that all the NJPW guys coming to ROH would just be Suzukigun and they'd win all of ROH's belts too. Suzuki as ROH Champion, Taka & Taichi as Tag Team Champions, El Desperado or Shelton as ROH TV Champion, etc

Speaking of ROH, highly recommend last week's tv show

Roman refusing to sign a big bossman photo is lame.


True heel

A stadium set up for 65k fits in another 11k while still having empty seats. That is impressive management of space.

Well, Saxton doesn't have a very animated delivery. And there were huge pauses in his commentary. I'm inclined to let the silences stand, but I guess people want more chatter.

Beyond that, this is a fine example of why most televised events (sports, entertainment, fashion) are hosted by a commentary team. It takes a lot of skill to do cover an event without someone to take up the slack or to play off of.

Byron Saxton and Tom Phillips are very good on commentary, but they're still learning. In time, I can see them working Raw or Smackdown as a team, or maybe paired with Corey Graves.

I never thought he had a particularly good character or on-screen personality. His effort out there spoke for itself.

Guys, he was out there doing his Owen voice for his commentary friends. He did fine.

Missing the "From me to you" part which I like, but that one is more to the point. Options for different moods.

lmfao, Alvarez says up until the day of Mania, Vince still wanted/booked Reigns to pin Brock

Right after you pay Brock that money.

Has anyone seen Legends of the Fall, the movie with Brad Pitt?

 

[Liquidsnake]

Is that why Reigns looked so pissed coming down to the ring?
Shoving people out the way and stuff

 

[Aiii]

Nintendo is gonna be so screwed once people lose interest in Amiibo's, their entire businessmodel is selling Amiibo's now.

Amiibo is the Roman Reigns of Nintendo.

I'm guessing the crowd was being rowdier than usual. Consider the Goldberg-style security escort.

He probably thought he was going over until the last hour before his match.

Maybe he was pretty upset.
