August Wrasslin’ |OT| When Russo Shoots, He Shoots To Kill

That never happens on Smackdown!

It was in Seattle that gave us that awesome Raw. So they are a very hot crowd that deserve more Raws.

Alberto del Rio Update:

While appearing on talk shows in Mexico today, Alberto Del Rio noted that he cannot wrestle in the United States for a year. He admitted there was a confrontation with a WWE employee but did not go into any great detail.
That would likely mean he was found to be in breach of his WWE contract. When a WWE talent is found in breach, they are informed that they will no longer be paid additional revenue due to them past the day of the breach (including royalties due for PPV, licensing, etc.) and that as a penalty of the breach, they cannot compete in pro wrestling or MMA for a period of one year

So there goes TNA handing him the belt.

Jado and Gedo will instantly hire him and give him the belt on his debut. And probably put him in Bullet Club too somehow

Best of G1 Climax 2014 Day 9

Definitely felt like a rest day and none of the matches recommended to me were interesting at all.

I'm actually a little bummed that Ambrose/Rollins is a Lumberjack match. I honestly can't remember the last good Lumberjack match. Summerslam has a decent card, but I get the feeling this match is going to be ruined by the stipulation.

Anyhow, prediction time. My third PPV this year after RR and Battleground which were both lacklustre except for Brotista's return.

Lesnar
Roman Reigns
Rollins
Bray Wyatt
Swagger
The Miz

I think Bryan will interfere in the Bella twin match. Maybe Game will be in there causing problems and all of a sudden, Bryan runs out or something. Either that, or his wife getting her ass kicked and Steph is picking up the win.

The entertainment I get from your Karl Anderson hate might match your Michael Hayes slam poems Stro

My dislike of Anderson is nowhere near as intense as my hate of Hayes. People at least acknowledge that Hayes was a terrible wrestler and a massive douche bag. But people like Anderson and I don't understand it at all. He's just a blank canvas of bland and stomach fat.

Hayes is all over 1991 WCW PPVs. Coincidentally I've been on 1991 for almost a month now. Not related in any way.

Jimmy Garvin is even more annoying than Purely Sexy.

They couldn't afford AJ Styles or Sting. There's no way they could meet the price Del Rio could command on the open market.

No way. Jimmy Jam was better at absolutely everything.

Better at being greasy, being even fatter, being even worse at wrestling.

WTFrick, 5 Super Rare cards with less than 200 matches? I have about 250 and am still trucking along with my lone maxed out super rare Jake Roberts.

Bean Breath, is your Supercard name "B. Breath"? If so, I'm in the same KOTR as you. We are tied for 2nd behind "manofparty" with 22 wins and 7 losses. My Supercard name is "mrboo001".

Mark Henry's on this week's Cheap Heat podcast, and talks about why most Lumberjack Matches don't work, and how to make them work. Awesome stuff.

Plus Hogan and Mrs. Foley's Baby Boy's Baby Girl.

I'm watching one of the Raws from May 1995. I forgot Bret dropped the S bomb on Jerry Lawler after losing at In Your House.

Bret planting Attitude Era seeds going all the way back to 95!

That whole promo was crazy for the time. Bret did it again in early 1997. Bret is the unsung hero of the Attitude Era creation.

So was Wrestlemania the best PPV of 2006 in regards to quality matches? I'm trying to find a PPV from the year to buy on DVD and I've only ever seen Wrestlemania 22 suggestions.

Awww frick! I'm telling you right now, that crown is mine.

Nope, that's not going to happen! I'm going to beat you in the round robin, then in the final tournament and become the first King of the (Supercard) Ring, baby!

But seriously, this is the first time I've done any multiplayer with a gaffer and for it to happen in an extremely random game like this awesome. Good luck!

EDIT: You drop to being tied for 3rd. Step up your game! :p
 
I haven't watched current wrestling in years. Thought I'd start with WrestleMania 30.

Why are people booing Cena? It seems it's flying in the face of their script. I don't know anything about the current wrestling story but I thought people loved him?

What should I watch after this?

Fans have been booing Cena since 2006. They were super into him until he and Batista switched brands and fans have rarely been more than 60% on his side ever since. It's become part of his character and acknowledged on just about every show. They got sick of him and he's been exactly the same for 8 years now and people get more enjoyment out of booing him than cheering him. Only kids and some women cheer him. Sometimes. Crowds were definitely more on Bray Wyatt's side than Cena during that whole feud.
