Catching up on last weeks CWC.

I get why people like ZSJ, but he is just not what I look for when Im watching wrestling. The technical stuff is cool every now and then, but when thats all you do the whole match, im tuning out.

You will like Gallagher. I loved his selling too and he has a better physique than ZSJ.

It's kind of interesting to see new people not into ZSJ but the response to Gallagher has been great.

GOT DAMN Tana vs Ishii was awesome!

anybody gotta link?? was trying to find it on youtube :/
 
Gargano and Ciampa are killing it! Everything from the pre match promo and package to the in ring was picture perfect. I love that superkick to the top turnbuckle spot, just vicious. That and the springboard spear into the knee strike were just brutal and awesome spots. Jesus Christ that air raid crash on the apron F my life that was insane.
 
Gallagher was a thousand times more entertaining, added some personality to the technicality. Felt like Sabre was just going through the motions.
The other dude stood there while Sabre casually went through holds, like they were playing Twister or something
 
SICK G1 card tonight. Shibata vs. Omega should rock face, and Naito vs. Nakajima should be excellent. Elgin vs. YOSHI-HASHI might be fun, as will Honma vs. EVIL. Nagata vs. Yano might have some good comedy.
 
The way they connect with these moves are so snug obviously because they trust each other but I like it. Reminds me of how Benoit & Eddie would wrestle each other.


Drop on the apron!
 
Not sure why my stream is so far ahead of everyone else but damn this was an awesome night of the CWC. Outside of the Sihra/Dar match it was one of the stronger showings imo.

Intense as hell match - one of the best nights of the CWC, if not the best.

Looking forward to The Revival versus Gargano & Ciampa at Takeover even more now,

CWC beats NXT as best WWE show this week. Holy shit.

only thing that might have made it better is if it had been a second round match for added stakes

edit: Ibushi vs Alexander was supposedly incredible.

When Bayley is put on the Main Roster, she needs to be the Smackdown Champion.

Sasha can face Dana, then Nia Jax, then...uh...Paige? Who else? Nikki?

I didn't really know those two but Ciampa is super impressive to me. Now the match... I don't know i don't like this kind of match where one guy destroys the other and does all the impresive stuff, while the other kicks out endlessly until he wins with a fucking roll up... I just hate it.

WWE needs to have the women wrestlers all on one show.

Having a group of women chasing nothing is dumb even for wrestling.

(WWE will probably make two women's championships.)

That's sometimes usually a lot of face heel matches even though they wasn't the thing here. Tommy waa the more powerful and the brawler so he had the upper hand and Johnny had to take an advantage since Tommy was so brutal with his repertoire.

His eventual hesitation, and his frustration almost making him leave his friend alone and crumpled over made it work for me. He was being brutal but part of him clearly didn't want to. Great stuff.

The problem being that one guy sells like crazy and should be dead, while the other had barely anything to sell but.. magical roll up out of nowhere!! It never works for me. It's one of the things that expose the business!!
