Not going to happen, but what if Reigns enters at #1 and gets eliminated like 20 mins in? That seems like it could make for one of the more interesting Rumbles in a long time.

Cutting the fat with the bullet club isn't a bad idea. Omega as the leader could be fun.
New Japan is backed into a bit of a corner, could be interesting. They have the ROH and NOAH connections.
Hope Davey Boy gets a push as well. Bring Go and Sugiera into NJPW along with Suzuki-gun
Turn NOAH I to that lions Gate thing

Oh no, two guys who have been underpaid when compared to their skills likely for their entire career will finally get paid well and might only have **** matches instead of ***** matches and might have to wrestle a guy who managed to have a **** match w/ The Big Show.
The horror!
Here's the truth - NXT is highly overrated. The fact that the women have largely been underwhelming is proof that when they don't have weeks to practice their "awesome" matches, they're really not all that great yet.

I skipped RAW for the second week in a row, I didn't watch one min of it.

Nobody ever had a 4* match with the Big Show, even when he was young and would do dropkicks n' shit.

WWE is probably going to make roster cuts soon. There is no way to fit all these guys in the main roster.
That or make NXT is own thing officially

yeah, no chance. he'll at the very least be there to the end.
I'm guessing somehow HHH cheats to win and the match at Mania is Reigns challenging HHH for the title. yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
the more interesting thing is how Brock gets eliminated from the Rumble. It seems clear at this point that whoever eliminates him will be his opponent at Mania. Really hoping it's KO.

At the height of my working out, my arms never looked like that, and I was pretty jacked.

Is it? He looks phenomenal. He's SEVENTY.
itd be more interesting if it was DB...
idk why but i wanna see him vs lesnar when ever he returns.. but I want it to mean something. its obviously not gonna be for the title this WM.. hopefully soon though
thats a shame because I actually think these past 3 raws have actually been watchable outside of a few shitty jobber matches. theres a storyline that is seen through to the end, to where as a few months ago(and basically all of the past 2 years) raw was just a bunch of random nonsense with no over all story arch.
either way though, youre probably doing the right thing

Why would it'd be more interesting with the broken shell of a wrestler who'd an even worse mic worker than Reigns?
(And don't point me to his crowd reactions - this RAW proved the chant was what was over.)
Should a 70 year old really have that much muscle? Isn't it a toll on his heart? Wouldn't he be better off maintaining a low fat percentage and a slimmer profile?

You should ask Vinnie Mac for some supplements.

No, the older you get, the more falling and hurting your bones is an issue. The more muscle you have, the more resistant you are to that sort of thing, especially the act of falling itself and not getting injured.
I definitely, absolutely advocate steroid usage in the elderly - the drawbacks are nowhere near as pronounced in that advanced age, and the benefits are absolutely fantastic for health.
see, thats what everyone thinks, but I can see him making a comeback
hes gonna be on total divas next season.. hes obviously not "done" with the company. also, last time I checked, hes still on their payroll. until they say hes been released, theres always a chance he comes back.
even then, if he goes and wrestles somewhere else, I could see him making a return to finish his career with WWE.
How long is it again until his contract runs out?

he needs to tan? dood looks amazing for 70.
I'm with Sunny Vince on this one. You are all mark ass marks.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
That's because Vince is loaded with steroids and doesn't have to adhere to his own company's testing policy.
Technically not true. Roman Reigns of all people gave Big Show his first singles 4* match last year at Extreme Rules: http://www.profightdb.com/cards/wwe/extreme-rules-3915-21664.html
If you're going to commit to having really good looking arms, you don't halfass it and make them Shaemus-tier pale.
Hilarious stuff. No change, just slot another talented commentator into the old system and watch how fast they become a nothing commentator.
Same as the divas revolution really, just slot some new women into the same old shit and pretend it's been chnaged.
I believe Meltzer said 2 years a couple of months ago.

It's I believe a little under two years out. They've been trying to place him in different things (as a trainer, in Tough Enough as a judge, Total Divas) but he hasn't shown that he's very good at those, although I doubt he's a bad trainer - but also that he doesn't WANT to do any of those things. WWE has a place for him in a non-wrestling role, but he seems determined to put himself at risk

Oh yeah I bet he is a good trainer, but like you say he doesn't seem like he wants to do that. He just wants to wrestle. That's still a long time, will he at that point still find easy and good work?

Vince is a mover and a shaker, a trendsetter. If he says ripped people can be pale, then fuck it, they're gonna be pale.
i don't care about these cases where he's working to shoot
when he working to draw he's THAT. MOTHER. FUCKER.

I kept hearing a weird voice on raw wondering who it was, ot was his shitty ass. Why in the fuck did they add him to the team? Why in the fuck are they doing a 3 men commentary anyway.
For a moment I thought we were getting ready for a master lock challenge.

That or your creative team on the main level is an atrocious piece of shit. You're wrestling matches that mean next to nothing because your writers can't craft a story beyond "jealous bitch", if they can even craft any story at all. Fucking Eva Marie had a compelling match before any of the "Divas Revolution" girls on the main card.
Isn't it to fight claims that the company is racist?
Its why Booker T was on Raw then he was moved to smackdown.

But he was by far the best judge on Tough Enough. He actually had stuff to say and good advice for the contestants.

Sure. But look at his competition there, heh
How much of a match is rehearsed ahead of time? Do they work on this shit all week/weekend? Because alot of the times I see wrestlers talking to eachother in the match telling the other person what to do next.
Is it that they cant remember or need reminders on what to do/where to be? Or do they improv alot of shit?
And as far as NXT being better than main roster stuff.. I attribute alot of it to the crowds. Look in the audience for NXT and you see a bunch of 18-30 year old college kids who are hype over anything. Then look at RAW and you have a bunch of little kids with their parents who have no idea what is going on, theyre just there for the kids.
