bean breath just blew #lumpgate wide open in the CM Punk thread. Good eye. Did you also discover the use of thermite during the 9/11 attacks, friend?
 
Also Warrior did a speaking tour for young Republicans clubs:

There are times in which I felt quite sorry for the Ultimate Warrior in regards to WWE whaling on him. But then I remember that Republican speaking video with him, and I'm just glad he didn't live any longer to talk more complete bullshit. Sorry. It's just pretty annoying when your childhood icon mocks your sexuality and everyone who has it.

Don't use the word "work". That's tantamount to calling him "Phil" out in public. Say something like, "Is this for real?"

Hopefully he tells us it's real so we can get some finality and put all of this behind us. From what I've gathered from the thread, his biggest fans know he isn't a liar.

Simple. If everyone's queering, then humanity dies out, and nature can finally get back to normal, without humans ruining it all.

AJ Styles almost killed somebody again with the Styles Clash


How many people will he kill before people tell him to stop with that move?

He really should call it TUCK YO HEAD and scream TUCK YO HEAD before performing it to remind the other wrestlers.

Or rename it The Real Neckbreaker and go for maximum heel heat.

Why the fuck does he have destiny?

He didn't know about all the locked off content in the X1 edition. Poor Roman :(

You know, that Luger/Flair match in GAB '88 wasn't so bad. Until the Dusty Finish. If I was a paying fan of that era I would have been pissed as fuck. Crowd yelling "Bullshit!" to end the show.

And the Tower of Doom had no logic behind it. Jimmy Garvin leaves the triple decker cage almost right away and leaves his team getting wrecked 4 on 5. And then it would continue to happen throughout the duration of the match. How could anyone think that is a good idea?

Two-show special!

Fall Brawl was great. Consistently entertaining. And the nWo angle is still fresh and exciting. And Sting! Oh, Sting... ;_;

IYH10 was truly awful. How did it pull a C then? The main event and the Austin/Pillman/Owen segment.

Oh, and one last thing about Fall Brawl (courtesy of legitshook.com):

Bray vs. Bryan was superb. I watched it on a movie screen and was blown away. Just...wow. Nothing else compared that night.

Quake vs Vader never happened. What a shame. That could have drawn huge in a NJPW vs AJPW match in the late 80s.

That's exactly the opposite of what people must do during this move. If you tuck your head that's when shit goes wrong.
 
Just to be safe I hope Punk and Colt dont record their Q&A until after Vince does his Stone Cold podcast thing. Also RAW.


I also hope he clarifies on some of the comments he made about the wellness policy and WWe's current handling of strikes. Pretty clear that stuff has been watered down a tone.

I actually just rewatched that and it's excellent.

Going back over earlier stuff this year (the Rumble, Elimination Chamber, Mania) also made me realize how thin the roster is right now. Hopefully guys like Bryan and Barrett can come back soon.

Yup. Not sure what he can really do at this point, tbh the best option would be the give it a break for a few weeks/months as despite the major attention it's getting, other wrestlers are still taking it wrong. I'd hope he is spending more time explaining it too but since it goes against what they are used to doing it's going to be real hard to pull off successfully unless he practises it a lot with said wrestler.

Sucks because I think it looks great. Maybe just break it out with wrestlers who ask to do it from now on.

If I were Punk, I'd do it live on Twitch right up against Vince's.

Yeah, we can dream.

Also, looking back at that Bray match is depressing when you quickly remember how Wyatt went to shit soon afterwards by feuding with Cena.

One thing I liked about WWF when they had all the managers was how easily the managers could make it so all the heels were in collusion. It was like the Legion of Doom(not that one) complete with things falling apart because of heels being heels.

At least we got that amazing match between the Wyatts and the Shield at Elimination Chamber, which was literally ruined like two hours later when Wyatt interfered in the main event.

It seems like they don't really know what to do with him. I don't know, now he interferes with Ambrose and Rollins, I guess.
