I hope Vince comes out on Monday and says fuck it

Tonight is a brawl for all.

YYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Ricardo Rodriguez is filling in for Heath Slater as a member of 3MB at WWE house shows and they are supposedly not giving any explanation for it at the events. Pretty funny.

 

[Aiii]

What about Miz?

Miz shit all over Marines by portraying one in a movie last year so I'm sure they requested him to not attend.

Heath Slater has been given some time off to resolve personal issues.

They should've had him pretend to be Hunico.


Hell, just make that Ricardo's gimmick. Kinda like Charlie Haas

Oh, I know, and it's not funny that he has to take time off, but Ricardo Rodriguez filling in without explanation is funny to me for some reason.

 

[Dark Ninja]

The Tribute to The Troops Arena looks amazing. Kinda reminds me of WCW for some reason

 

[jobber]

TttT hype

 

[funkystudent]

If they really wanted to complete the gimmick for 3MB they really should have a rotating slot for one member and that member just gets replaced the following show after taking a big bump o randomly exploded at every single show.

 

[jobber]

this match was 5 stars

 

[Man God]

On this date in wrestling history 16 years ago:

The beginning of the end IMO

Since you're just doing random events now Stro you should do Starrcade 1997 for fun.

It really was the canary in the coal mine despite how awesome 1998 was at the beginning (and all year for business despite the back half being boring as fuck match wise)

I think Memphis is the only territory that WWE doesn't own the footage of. As far as I know, the Jarretts still own the CWA/USWA footage. Lawler might own USWA footage. Jeff and his dad should make an aggressive deal to sell to footage to Vince for the network or release the footage themselves.

jesus christ

this match as mutated twice

This match hasn't reached its Final Form yet.

Punk, Bryan, Cena, Goldust, Cody, and Big E Langston v. The Wyatts and The Shield

 

[Dark Ninja]

This Tribute to the Troops crowd is very good and JBL and Cole seem to be on their best behavior

 

[Raw64life]

lol @ Harper taking the GTS into the Bryan knee and popping right back up to take the AA.

 

[jobber]

according to my cable guide, there is no director's cut of TTTT this year.

friends, a shoot DVD/Emerald Fusion:

I thought Brodus was the resident dance machine >_>

I think there's other minor territories that Vince either doesn't own or there's not enough footage out there (ie. Portland outside of the Buddy Rose tapes). But, from what I've read, nobody actually knows who completely owns the USWA/CWA footage because of the various legal wrangling Lawler got involved in during the mid-90's.

As a side note, here's a playlist of Portland wrestling - not one show 'cause there's no shows available, but it does have a story to it - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdj3IsWCikncA_CpH6SDayf-Gh8vwVDB9&feature=mh_lolz

The Boss thought everyone would like to see this:

WWF/E 1997-2013 Win Percentages

I'm the boss.

 

[Dark Ninja]

Oh god what is this shiet

 

[BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!]

I'm the boss.

I am the LAW.

 

[jobber]

wtf was that ending

TTTT needs more JBL in an astronaut suit

 

[Guzim]

wtf was that ending

TTTT needs more JBL in an astronaut suit

WWE needs to have all of their shows end with Bryan's music.

 

[Dark Ninja]

The rest of the matches that weren't televised are on WWE's Youtube

youtube? da fuck

i barely remember to watch nXt cause i'm too lazy to hit the chromecast button

The best part of that win percentages list is John Cena's 2012 which they painted as his worst year was his third best in terms of wins in his entire career.

The crowd not even moving until AJ came out was the best

But but but he lost those 3 matches. Clearly he had a bad year.

LOL Dolph Ziggler only above 50% while in the Spirit Squad.

 

[Vylash]

But but but he lost those 3 matches. Clearly he had a bad year.

He only had 2 PPV victories, and those are what tend to stick with people more

Heels tend to lose a lot of matches unless they're the champ. Or named Triple H.

Umm no, that's wrong

John Cena's 2012 PPV matches:

Royal Rumble: Double Count Out Vs Kane
Elimination Chamber: Wins Ambulance Match(that was also the main event for some stupid reason)
Wrestlemania: Loses Once in a Lifetime
Extreme Rules: Defeates Brock Lesner for some stupid reason
Over The Limit: Loses to Johnny Ace
No Way Out: Makes up for losing to Johnny by completely destroying him and Big Show. Johnny is now Fired
Money in the Bank: Wins the John Cena Briefcase
Summerslam: Loses to Punk.
Night Of Champions: Double Pinfall
Hell in a Cell: Doesn't wrestle
Survivor Series: Punk beats him
TLC Loses to Ziggler

So we have

Wins: 4
Loses: 5
Draw/no compete: 3

What did those loses amount too?

Rock-

Johnny-Johnny got completely humiliated and fired

Punk- Punk was constantly called a chump and forced to defend his title against cena again and again until Cena finally decided to give him props right before he went over.

Ziggler: Cena completely humiliated him by kicking out of 85 finishers and wining the next 15 matches they had.

Yep Cena had a slightly below 500 PPV year but only in the matches that didn't matter(save maybe 1, but he even made up for that one)

Heels tend to lose a lot of matches unless they're the champ. Or named Triple H.

Oh so that's why Babyface Ziggler is tearing up 2013...

 

[Vylash]

How did I forget the ambulance match

 

[Alucard]

ROH's first show of 2014 sounds like it could be something special.

Saturday, January 4th in Nashville, TN.

-AJ Styles vs. Roderick Strong
-Chris Hero vs. Kevin Steen
-Ciampa vs. Silas Young
-Appearance by Rowdy Roddy Piper

I wish I lived in Nashville. I'd be all over this!

Anyone else picking up more interest in ROH of late? They've had a string of good PPVs.

 

[strobogo]

I will definitely give ROH a watch with AJ coming back.

 

[Vylash]

I haven't seen ROH in years, I watched their big tv debut thing but the production values were so pathetic I didn't bother watching more, have they improved?

 

[Alucard]

I will definitely give ROH a watch with AJ coming back.

Sounds like it's just for one show, but if he came back full time, ROH's roster would suddenly look MUCH better...especially if Hero stays on full time as well.

 

[Alucard]

I haven't seen ROH in years, I watched their big v debut thing but the production values were so pathetic I didn't bother watching more, have they improved?

They've got a great heel champion in Adam Cole, Kevin Steen and Mike Bennet just had a very nice feud, which I think is going to continue, there were two new stables/connections established at their final show of the year, their in-ring product is second-to-none, and their tag division also looks pretty good right now. But I also don't mind their production values one bit. Oh, and they've got some pretty hot talent in guys like Michael Elgin, ACH, and Kyle O'Reilly.

 

[G-Fex]

Death note thread seriously?

Not only gaming but OT can be really fucking stupid.

Also yay AJ in RoH

 

[WhoaIsThatMars]

Has anyone on here found a decent deal for a hotel in New Orleans? I'm trying to stay at or under $225/night.

 

[G-Fex]

it's insane how expensive tickets are.

I want to go to UK and it's like 2000 goddamn dollars

 

[mechashiva]

I'm splitting embassy with like 4 people it's 300 a night. Nothing close is cheap.

 

[Raw64life]

Anderson Silva just pulled a Sid Vicious on UFC. Looked like the same spot too.

 

[Lambda Pie]

MMA's version of Sid leg break:

[WhoaIsThatMars]

Mmmmm mmmm mmmmm gotta love rubber legs in slow motion. Ouch

 

[Lambda Pie]

it was a fantastic event.

one fighter turned heel, a Celtic Cross, a Stone Cold-like promo and a Sid leg break.

 

[Penguin]

Speaking of the leg break, anyone know if this is THE Sid?
