Now that's a nice card.

 

[slightconfuse]

Speaking of NXT. They really should put NXT redemption on the network

 

[Alucard]

And here we see the worst case of denial in years. A magnificent study will be done over the course of the next few months, as we await with bated breath to see if the acceptance stage will occur before the casket of the deceased company is lowered into the ground.

Any positive or optimistic comment I make about TNA's future as a company is purely tongue in cheek.

 

[El Pescado]

I guess. Outside of Wyatt's who else has actual singing in new theme music? Almost no one it seems.
Just seems they cared more when they had actual CD releases.

That reminds me. Living Color mist be pissed at Punk. That royalty check ran dry.
Well ..maybe not yet. CM Punk Music to be re-dubbed on network!

I was just watching Royal Rumble 2014 on the Network and they dubbed Beaver Cleavage's theme over Punk's entrance.

Don't make me post the giant wall'o'text from a delusional TNA fanboy!!!! If you're too satirical about TNA, you just seem like a regular fan... so-and-so's law or something....

 

[DMczaf]

So similar to the Clash of the Champions format I guess

He's such an NWA mark.

 

[Kaladin]

When I saw this hat on one of the latest TNA NYC episodes, I had to jump on it:

I buy these hats because I LOVE the type of hat they use and it has been hard for me to find elsewhere. This hat just says IMPACT...that is it. There is nothing that ties it directly to TNA or wrestling, and I love that. It might as well say nothing, because IMPACT could literally be anything.


It's also much better than this one because this logo was kinda bulky on the hat:

 

[Kornflayx]

You guys saying Hall of Fame is WrassleGAFs official theme? Shouldn't it be this song:

Or it could the theme of Lesnar vs. Undertaker - as witnessed at WrassleGAF

 

[KissVibes]

Updated version of Cesaro's theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-vYMsgGOqY

WILL THE BERRYING NEVER CEASE?

Oh my god this is fucking horrific.

Wait, Hunico got bumped down?

oh god

how did they fuck it up more

 

[British Monsoon]

Cesaro needs to use the 1812 Overture again, perfect fit for him (when he was a face, at least);

Who was it in here who said that CFO have essentially replaced Johnston?

BECAUSE WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?

Da fuck is this shit.

Surprised this guy survived the cut;

Miracle is my favorite Cesaro theme

Like Wade Barrett, his themes get worse with time

 

[El Pescado]

Wait. I thought this was a joke. They seriously replaced the air siren with a ambulance siren?

 

[KissVibes]

Shaun Ricker/Slate Randall was released? Jesus fucking christ. YOU PEOPLE STILL EMPLOY CJ PARKER, BULL DEMPSEY, ANGELO DAWKINS, AND FUCKING MOJO RAWLEY.

Ricker was money you fucking goofballs. Dude is good looking, can talk really well, worked with Paul Bearer for years, and is a solid wrestler. Not amazing but very solid and could easily be a dependable fan favorite. Didn't The Rock also vouch for him since they worked together on that show?

Surprised this guy survived the cut;

LOOK AT THIS FUCKING ASSHOLE.

 

[Jimmy King]

An excerpt from a GotG article

Gunn perfectly matches wrestler-(barely)-turned-actor Dave Bautista's woodenness to the social ineptness of his Drax the Destroyer

 

[joelseph]

Shut your mouth about CJ!

 

[Serpentine]

what the fuck, they cut Ricker? They still employ so many goobers!

I can't with that new Cesaro theme. it's BAD.

 

[KissVibes]

Joel Redman (Formerly Oliver Grey) seems like a really fucking bitter guy looking at his twitter.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

I don't understand that talk about a TNA hat not being a TNA hat, Sandmeng. Why don't you just not buy wrestling hats?

 

[Kaladin]

So apparently TNA thinks this matchup is a big deal....

Maybe back in 08 it would have been....but now? Eh.

 

[jred2k]

Cue Alucard calling it the match of our generation.

LOOK AT THIS FUCKING ASSHOLE.

Totally agree with this. Bro fist!!


E: Trips Fucked up. He even bashed on Punk and that was before he signed with E

 

[KissVibes]

I thought Low Ki retired.

Totally agree with this. Bro fist!!
Vinny fucked up

HELL YEAH MAN!

At the very least, Brian Cage can probably expect to get his fuckin' ass whipped some more by Ricker.

 

[strobogo]

I don't legit detest many wrestlers, but there's one I really do and I just don't 'get it' with him - Shane Douglas.

Perhaps it's because I mainly remember him as Dean Douglas and that might have tainted my view on him, but I don't get it when ECW fans go on and on about how awesome he was. He seems to biggest self-mark ever, and all his promos are the same... and boring. I hated his work in ECW, I hated his work in WCW, I hated his work in WWE, I hated his work in TNA and I think he was even the worse thing about XPW.

Shane's best work was definitely 1992-1993 WCW run. Anything after 1995 is garbage because his body was completely broken down by the age of 32. And it got worse every year.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

I would be too if I worked through an injury for a year, came back and lost to fucking Camacho, then got released

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Surprised this guy survived the cut;

This dude has fucking stretch marks on his baby fat. How did Vince not go into a seizure

 

[riskVSreward]

I think you mean back in 03...

 

[Serpentine]

Very definition of losing your spot when you get injured. dude was part of the first NXT tag team champions!

 

[njean777]

I always thought NXT was live, wouldn't it make sense for them to do the shows live so it can get the wrestlers ready for RAW if they ever move up?

 

[sf2fanatic]

I thought Low Ki retired.



HELL YEAH MAN!

At the very least, Brian Cage can probably expect to get his fuckin' ass whipped some more by Ricker.

It's weird thinking they were tag team partners back in the day

 

[RBH]

Personally, I'm actually pumped for it. Been wanting to see it for awhile now, even though they're both older.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

You can't draw conclusions on why people stick around or aren't released. Maybe Mojo Rawley is being paid jack shit (he probably is) and isn't worth cutting for what he gives.

 

[British Monsoon]

This dude has fucking stretch marks on his baby fat. How did Vince not go into a seizure

To be fair, that was two years ago and he has bulked up some since - however, he's also 29 years old and as green as grass (wrestling a whopping grand-total of FIFTEEN MATCHES in his career), but does have that ex-football background WWE seems to covet.

 

[The Mango Sentinel]

Surprised this guy survived the cut;

Probably just because he's really tall.

 

[Liu Kang Baking A Pie]

I always thought NXT was live, wouldn't it make sense for them to do the shows live so it can get the wrestlers ready for RAW if they ever move up?

The specials are live.

 

[njean777]

Surprised this guy survived the cut;

Those stretch marks though.... I mean I am not the fittest person in the world, but I hope he wears something to hide those and isn't shirtless while wrestling.

 

[Professor Beef]

Don't forget that Shane Douglas showed up to Raw just to try and hijack the show into promoting his worthless hardcore reunion PPV.

 

[KissVibes]

WWE really just wants a bunch of dudes with chest tattoos.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

So my NJPW Friends:

G1 Climax 2014 vs 2013

Is this the better year? I feel like so far...yes. Yes it is.

 

[Cagey]

Surprised this guy survived the cut;

Stick the sumbitch in a tanning booth and he's got CM Punk's body with better tattoos.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Don't forget that Shane Douglas showed up to Raw just to try and hijack the show into promoting his worthless hardcore reunion PPV.

Dammit. ARGH!

 

[British Monsoon]

So my NJPW Friends:

G1 Climax 2014 vs 2013

Is this the better year? I feel like so far...yes. Yes it is.

I feel like the overall quality is up, but there aren't as many HOLY SHITBALLS amazing matches as of yet - still 3 days of the group stages and the finals to go though!

 

[Liu Kang Baking A Pie]

That stretch mark dude looks scared. Like he's posing to be an intimidating wrestler, but he just looks like he's worried he won't finish his homework on time.

 

[Kornflayx]

So my NJPW Friends:

G1 Climax 2014 vs 2013

Is this the better year? I feel like so far...yes. Yes it is.

I think this is the better year, and I haven't seen all the matches from Day 7 yet, but AJ vs. Suzuki is so close to Ishii vs. Shibata from last year. Just unbelievable, MOTY for me so far.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Everyone's managing to hold up, too. I think the pace change, spacing things out...that's gone a long way. Really incredible, best $100+ entertainment I've spent all year. And I haven't even watched Day 7.
