Fuck this show

did it even break?

Rock I am disappointed

 

[Four_Chamber]

A Cleveland pop?

I got sad during the Road Warriors bit. LOD was a big part of my childhood

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Fuck you Drew Carey I know someone who will make you humble and show you your two inch cock.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Man I've waited for so long for more of you guys to say this. I've said for a long time he's boring and has absolutely zero personality. You know its bad when the Bella twins and Gail Kim are more interesting than the US champion.

Everybody likes to make the Benoit comparison but it really doesn't fly. Benoit got over on his intensity, which Bryan doesn't have.

Beniot looked scary. Daniel Bryan looks like he should be working IT.

 

[Conrad Link]

NXT Bryan was great though, he's just not allowed to do it.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Wow that's some great editing. You would think that Drew wasn't being booed to all hell. In fact you'd think they loved him.

 

[SoulPlaya]

Sean Michaels might have something to say about that. HHH too.

Undertaker has had more crap matches than either guy. Not his fault, but when you've got guys like Kane, (twice, both sucked) Psycho Sid, Giant Gonzales, Diesel, and Mark Henry, along with guys like Snuka, Bundy, and Roberts all on their way out to go with at Wrestlemania, you're gonna have a tough time beating those guys out.

Did you just say that Taker and Kane's match at WM 14 sucked? WHAT?

 

[siddx]

Drew Carey's speech wasn't that bad, short, respectful, and he didn't try to stroke his own ego. Don't know why it was booed. Boo Vince for deciding to add him if anything.

 

[Joe Prodigy]

Does anybody have the Wrestlemania Anthology boxset? Is it any good?

I own it. I think it's really good. Though it has been edited a bit. Some theme songs are different and they blur logos the further back you watch. It's good for matches though.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Sorry about that last comment my account was hacked by Kevin Dunn and a drunk guy. Sorry.

 

[jobber]

Need to put the HoF back into a smaller arenas that hold 800 or less. Having such a classy event in a big ass arena that holds 20k+ is kinda dumb.

His speech, like all of them, was edited down from its original length.

when dragon is maineventing next years mania, you fuckers will be wearing his shirt with this face on it -

 

[Cruceh]

wtf??? raw started at 8? someone recap me now! thanks

 

[GaimeGuy]

Nicely put. I guess he has 'The Streak' and probably therefore the longest list of 'memorable' matches anyone will ever have at Mania.

No, before Taker faced Flair, there wasn't anything even remotely memorable about his matches, except maybe the gimmick of being in an Inferno Match with Kane.

Undertaker vs. Jimmy Snuka (WrestleMania VII)
Undertaker vs. Jake "The Snake" Roberts (WrestleMania VIII)
Undertaker vs. Giant Gonzalez (WrestleMania IX)
Undertaker vs. King Kong Bundy (WrestleMania XI)
Undertaker vs. Diesel (WrestleMania XII)
Undertaker vs. Sycho Sid (WrestleMania 13)
Undertaker vs. Kane (WrestleMania XIV)
Undertaker vs. Big Boss Man (WrestleMania XV)
Undertaker vs. Triple H (WrestleMania X-Seven)
Undertaker vs. Ric Flair (WrestleMania X8)
Undertaker vs. The Big Show & A-Train (WrestleMania XIX)
Undertaker vs. Kane (WrestleMania XX)
Undertaker vs. Randy Orton (WrestleMania 21)
Undertaker vs. Mark Henry (WrestleMania 22)
Undertaker vs. Batista (WrestleMania 23)
Undertaker vs. Edge (WrestleMania XXIV)
Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels (WrestleMania XXV)
Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels (WrestleMania XXVI)
Undertaker vs HHH (Wrestlemania XXVII)

Shawn Michaels, on the other hand, has...

The Rockers vs. The Twin Towers (Wrestlemania V)
The Rockers vs. The Orient Express (Wrestlemania VI)
The Rockers vs. The Barbarian and Haku (Wrestlemania VII)
Shawn Michaels vs. Tito Santana (Wrestlemania VIII)
Shawn Michaels vs. Tatanka (Wrestlemania IX)
Shawn Michaels vs. Razor Ramon (Wrestlemania X)
Shawn Michaels vs. Diesel (Wrestlemania XI)
Shawn Michaels vs. Bret Hart (Wrestlemania XII)
Shawn Michaels vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin (Wrestlemania XIV)
Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho (Wrestlemania XIX)
Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Benoit vs. HHH (Wrestlemania XX)
Shawn Michaels vs. Kurt Angle (Wrestlemania XXI)
Shawn Michaels vs. Vince McMahon (Wrestlemania XXII)
Shawn Michaels vs. John Cena (wrestlemania XXIII)
Shawn Michaels vs. Ric Flair (Wrestlemania XXIV)
Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker (Wrestlemania XXV)
Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker (Wrestlemania XXVI).


It's no contest really.

 

[chuckddd]

Fuck this show

Exclusive footage of Welly after DJax crushed his dreams! Good work.

 

[dream]

when dragon is maineventing next years mania weekend ROH events, you fuckers will be wearing his shirt with this face on it -

I FIXED YOUR POST FOR YOU LUNCHBOX

 

[JdFoX187]

Money. They also need a reason to get people to buy the wrestlemania DVD.

You're as delusional as dream and Azuran.

 

[canadian crowe]

I own it. I think it's really good. Though it has been edited a bit. Some theme songs are different and they blur logos the further back you watch. It's good for matches though.

What are the extras like? Is it just barebones.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Yea. I've always liked Drew. It was edited though too. However he's a legit wrestling fan who has always been respectful to the industry. I do think people are too hard on him. I mean they inducted Pete Rose for the love of Christ. It's also been known that they were aiming to add celebs who appeared on their programming in to get that extra press. So I'm glad Drew got in before some of the celebs they've had.

 

[Hex]

Reeeeaaaally?

The HoF is for good players, not good people, Pete Rose belongs in the HoF.

 

[StealthGoblin]

Sean Michaels might have something to say about that. HHH too.

Come to think of it yeah. All he'll have then is probably a hotly contested best WM match. I think both his matches against HBK are the best, personally.

Who do we reckon would induct Taker into the HOF. Pretty much everyone respects him to the moon and back. I wouldn't be surprised if Vince did it himself.

 

[JdFoX187]

To be fair, Bryan has been booked as the lovable geek and it completely contradicts what he can do in the ring. He could easily be similar to Chris Benoit in the ring if they would fucking book him like that. Chalk it up to another one of creative's idiocies.

 

[dream]

Welcome to the Hall of Fame!

 

[jobber]

no nWo Shawn makes me a sad panda

Wrestling fans will boo their own mothers if they think it will make them look like smarks.

Paul Bearer?

 

[ElRenoRaven]

You couldn't be more wrong. It's for whoever Vince McMahon decides to put in. There is nothing athletic about it and Pete Rose doesn't belong in anything. If they were picking on the athletic side of wrestling half the hall of fame wouldn't be in there including Pete because all he did was get tombstoned by Kane 2 years in a row. However Vince had every right to put Rose in and Drew and any celeb he wants cause it's his HOF.

 

[StealthGoblin]

Paul Bearer?

He's a contender to do it. It'd be a long arse list of people willing to do it. I'd love Bearer to do it.

MYYY UNDDERRRRTAKERRR. (In that damned high pitched voice). I'd love it.

I was making a baseball HoF fame joke.

 

[MisterHero]

I fully expect Paul Bearer to show up after Taker wins his final Wrestlemania match to take him back to the grave

JR is broadcasting RAW!!!!!

OMG ITS JR AND KING ON RAW OMG OMG OMG

Yeah, exactly. It's not a real hall of fame - it's Vince's pet project to define the history of wrestling as he wants it to be told.

A real pro wrestling hall of fame would be filled by conmen and drug addicts angling for paydays.

Jr on raw just said, "the man who SURVIVED the undertaker will be on"

the motherfucker was supposed to die trying

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Ah. lol. Ok then. lol

I didn't mean anything by it brah, but bringing up pete Rose and HoF was too hard for me to resist.

 

[Barack Lesnar]

So I was thinking about The Rock's contributions last night and how it was some of his worst stuff ever (the opening that dragged on way too long, Pee Wee, Mae Young, just lame PG shit with no bite whatsoever)... so here's what I think they should have done:

• cut the opening to like 5 minutes, max
• have The Rock sneak up to the ring and give a rock bottom to Edge and help Del Rio win
• have The Rock come out from underneath the ring and rock bottom Randy Orton so CM Punk wins
• have The Rock announcing with JR (replace Booker T) during the Lawler/Cole match and have him rock bottom Cole so Lawler "wins" then gets that DQ. Then afterward have Rock and Stone Cold stare down in the ring and maybe talk a little (instead of the Mae Young segment on the screen)
• turn off the lights near the end of the Taker/HHH match and have the Rock rock bottom HHH
• and then he already did rock bottomed Cena

So basically instead of having a lame opening with him talking for way too long and also those awful skits with Mae and Pee Wee, have him come out in short bursts so he doesn't get overexposed and have those bursts be epic with drive-by rock bottoms everywhere.

 

[dream]

Did you see Sheamus' hat. That's what I picture Keyser wearing on a daily basis.

 

[DMczaf]

That was a weird edit

"LOL HES BALD!!......*cries*"

So... have him sabotage every single match on the card. This is the worst idea ever.

 

[Lunchbox]

Shemus looks like a paper boy

 

[Barack Lesnar]

So... have him sabotage every single match on the card. This is the worst idea ever.

But look at what we got instead... did any titles even change? Did anyone get put over or a new gimmick? Nothing of substance happened so might as well have him do that

 

[SoulPlaya]

HHH's tears are an act.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Jim Ross is announcing Raw!

He still wont parrot the shit he gets in his ear, so he probably wont last long

 

[jobber]

When is Magnum TA getting in the HoF? He was like the Cena of the early 90s til....it happened...........

 

[the_geche]

This Hall of Fame ceremony has some of the worst editing I ever seen on a WWE broadcast...
