So Big E must be butthurt about the IWC because he says he can't do flips so no one likes him but the most liked internet guys on Raw were Mark Henry(who probably can't flip), Bork(who definitely can't flip see wrestlemania) and Cesaro(who probably can flip but won't do it for you stupid americans)

Just get me Big E. in singles matches condescendingly shoulder pressing his opponent with a dickbag smirk on his face and I'm sold.

With the right promotion I could see it being as big as Hogan vs Andre. After this year The Rock is going to be the biggest name in Hollywood. If Brock is handled correctly and steam rolls HHH, Orton, and lets say The Ryback then he has a ton of momentum going into Mania. I could easily see next years Mania doing 1.5 million buy with Rock vs Brock, CM Punk vs Stone Cold, and Cena vs The Undertaker.

I just can't see them doing that.

Fucking LOL at the CM punk birthday video.

Brandon Stroud doesn't write this week's best and worst, and it is a lot better for it.

This would work best if Brock is the one who takes the belt from Cena.

Especially if Cena holds the belt for eight or nine months and Brock just murders him. You think people would still complain when Brock is only on one Raw a month, no ppv's, and no house shows?

 

[BillRiccio]

I just can't see them doing that.

They have Brock for two years they better be planning his programs out for that long. It's a different ball game then this year when most thought he'd be one and done. He has to murder everyone this year if they want to maximize the huge investment they've put into him.

 

[strobogo]

Right now, the only guys I'm interested in are Brock, Claudio, D-Bryne, and Titus. Angry Punk is too hammy to be taken seriously, Rock will be blown up within 5 minutes of a match, Cena is Cena, and everyone else is booked terribly.

 

[Kaladin]

Clearly the IWC will only be satisfied with a Brock vs Cesaro feud.

I thought that was pretty bad. I actually prefer the other guy.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

DB, YYH, Hajime No Ippo, everything else I've seen sucks.

 

[British Monsoon]

Watched the replay of $5 Wrestling, holy shit at Big Donnie vs Cliff Compton, what a bloodbath! That chair shot Cliff hit Donnie with was disgusting, but Cliff bled buckets for it in the end. Jesus. I'm hyped for Big Donnie vs Freight Train. This shit is better booked than the WWE. CHOO CHOO!

 

[FallingEdge]

$5 Wrestling is so good. It is an untapped market of greatness.

 

[MightyHealthy]

God, just look at Jay Lethal's ridiculous fucking face on that thing. "AHHHHH, I'M REALLY ANGRY!!! ARE YOU BUYING HOW ANGRY AND INTENSE MY CHARACTER IS YET?!?!?!"

He looks like he stepped on a thumbtack.

 

[FallingEdge]

Nobody likes Lethal.

 

[Arrowgigantic]

The best anime is Cromartie High School, what is wrong with you people.

 

[tm24]

Nobody likes Lethal.

I'm so proud of you guys for your Lethal hate. Can't wait to boo him in person.

 

[Perspicacity]

Funny as he used to be one of the most well-liked guys around. Good ol' ROH

 

[SoulPlaya]

 

[Kaladin]

Jay Lethal may be the least threatening looking wrestler in the history of wrestling.

 

[FallingEdge]

They way he has been handled is just terrible. I know what they were trying to go for but man, it just came off so flat and I don't know anyone that is rooting for him to win.

 

[British Monsoon]

Funny as he used to be one of the most well-liked guys around. Good ol' ROH

I liked the whole storyline of him leaving Special K, getting serious and changing his name from Hydro to Jay Lethal, and some of the matches he had tagging with Joe were great - but I always thought his Pure Title run was funny, as Joe trained Lethal to win the title and then just took it from him like it was nothing. He didn't really do much after that, iirc, other than getting destroyed by the Rottweilers, and his latest run in ROH has been pretty dull.

 

[Sabucin]

Ten dollar wrestling would be a catastrophe.

 

[strobogo]

TNA really killed Jay Lethal. There are a number of guys that have dropped off after TNA, but probably not as young and with as much potential as Jay Lethal.

I remember that time TNA built up Jay Lethal as a threat to Jeff Jarrett, they let him get in some offense and then Jarrett squashed him like a bug.

Didn't Lethal beat Angle too? And then Angle got pissed that they squashed him like that?

That would be Sin Cara.

That would be Sin Cara.

You would be threatened if a man without a face jumped off a trampoline and attacked you in a dark alley.

 

[Ultratech]

Somehow I'd be more confused than anything.

What a shock!

http://www.wrestleview.com/wwe-news/39571-report-triple-h-expected-to-be-a-regular-on-tv-soon

Triple H is scheduled to become a regular on television according to a report by Dave Meltzer. Triple H is booked as a performer on all post-Wrestlemania 29 television tapings in New Jersey and Boston. With the exception of an appearance in late 2012, he has not been part of WWE television on a regular basis since his match with Brock Lesnar at Summerslam last August.

 

[Nocturnowl]

Somehow I'd be more confused than anything.

But you'd know that your time was up when the dreaded finger point targets you.

 

[Pavaloo]

I'd say Spike Dudley was the least threatening wrestler of all time, haha.

Edit: The best thing about Sin Cara is his pointing ^^^ he should do more of it.

 

[Professor Beef]

But you'd know that your time was up when the dreaded finger point targets you.

But then I would point right back at him and he would then be confused.

 

[Striker]

That would be Sin Cara.

Miz.

 

[Man God]

Whatcha gonna do brother when Sin Cara POINTS at yooooooouuuuuu!

 

[Brinbe]

Sin Cara vs Hogan WM30

Miz.

Brock was legit shook when Ice-Cold Mike Mizanin pushed his chest.

 

[Kaladin]

Sin Cara vs Hogan WM30

**Hogan points**
"You!!!!"
**Sin Cara points**
"y tu!!!!!!!!!"

 

[Nocturnowl]

But then I would point right back at him and he would then be confused.

Yeah, maybe you're right.

Oh damn I forgot about Ice Cold, best 3 week long gimmick ever.
This reminds me of the hilariously awful names Austin was given for the Stone Cold character, if only I could remember them.

 

[Dark Ninja]

That would be Sin Cara.

Not when he's pointing a gun at you

 

[Dave Meltzer]

--Zach Ryder's song "Hoeski" was on the verge of making the UK itunes top 100 charts earlier today and I think he cracked it in the U.S. Ryder said that for anyone who buys the song, he'll follow them on Twitter. (thanks to Rob Harvey and others)

:lol Ryder

Anyone can be threatening when they're pointing a heater at you.

Cena with title, HHH beating Brock and coming back full time? It'll take another MitB 2011 to bring me back from this upcoming hiatus.

Here comes the burial.

Ambrose is the only one who looks threatening/engaging here. Sheamus is almost there. The rest of the Shield looks dead eyed or bored, Ryback...should not cock an eyebrow. All he needs to do is tilt forward so he's sort of looking up into the camera with a sneer and it would accomplish more than whatever he's trying to do here. All this does it make him look confused. And Cena, as always, is a cartoon character breaking immersion with a stupid smirk.

They cloned Benoit.
