RAW was actually good last week, I had fun. I just don't know how anyone can look forward to Dean and Bray's ambulance match regardless of WK9 happening or not.
Force the diva roster to watch this for an hour every day.
Raw should actually be pretty good this week.
The girl in red is 18 years old in that video.
An 18 year old is running the ropes better than an entire division of late 20 somethings.
I tapped out after Bryne swerve me. It was a ok raw....but I made my New Years Resolution of casting that promotion out of my life.

The money issue seems to be all over the place. If you believe Meltzer a guy like Cesaro can make as much in the indies, while he's hot, as the WWE because he's not getting any PPV bonuses right now and has to pay to travel all over the country. The thing is after being away from the WWE for a while guys get less in indy bookings because people forget about them.

Why? to remind them that they'll never be able to do it in a million years?

I don't know about that. But she could take a kendo stick to the face with the best of them, and I'll always respect her for that.
Is this a euphemism?
He needs to go back to the purple/blond mohawk thing. And the eyebrows age him big time. Looks like Asian Paul Orndorff.

I know, right!?!
I saw the video package, the opening sequence, and then the first outside of ring spot, and I immediately knew we were getting a Cena/Orton match. Then I started calling spots as they happened, including the Rainmaker kickout, until they finally hit the patented no momtem, Tanahashiwinslol finish.

he had a mohawk 0_o...I'm used to his nickelodeon color hairstyle.
I guess Okada can channel his apex predator in the upcoming months or in this case hurricane wrecker *rimshots*.

Under reported 3 straight days of G1 goodness
The only matches that I thought were excellent were the Suzuki and Ibushi matches. Tanahashi generally bores me and I've been getting flashbacks of his 2011 run since he won the title. The Junior matches did absolutely nothing for me. The Makabe and Styles matches weren't bad but the latter could have used more time. Overall an enjoyable show but Wrestle Kingdom is usually not one of the best shows of the year as of late.
G1, I think.

Shit, exposing the business be damned, I had no idea that Kenny-kun was repping the FnP Movement this hard.
Kenny Omega is the definition of FnP.
As well as showing Natalya being a complete moron.
"OMG I think I ate pot brownies so I'm gonna get into a car accident to get out of drug testing!"
"You know pot stays in your system for 30 days, right?"
"But..."
"And there wasn't any pot in those brownies. It was a joke."
"......."
When I see this gif I imagine Kaitlyn must've been told backstage "make sure Eva looks strong."
You know Total Divas is a bigger work than the WWE, right?
I mean, same goes with all reality shows. Slightly more scripted too.

The 4 team, the one with Double J and a two team one. So three I think..?

About to post this too!!
atleast 4 tag matches.
Might be hard to sell him on that much commentating.
I rather see striker and tenay do commentary for that event.

This is uncalled for
That sounds like what listening to JesseEwiak might sound like.

The idea of Tenay on Japanese wrestling, just calling move after move with no storytelling, makes me want to pull my ears off
That's unfair.
It'll be move after move, then a bunch of semi interesting background on the man competing.
I know, but it was really pushing it.
She was pulling more leaps of logic out of her ass than most stupid people I've seen.
Ouch...

Finally finished my write-up on WK9.

Awesome show.
GFW Presents NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 9 Results and Review: The Secret is Out
Conclusion: That was truly excellent. The first three matches were mighty quick, but they got their individual stories across: reDRagon are a force to be reckoned with, Honma is damn funny, and NOAH could be more significant players in 2015. From there, the meat of the show was delivered, with match after match of memorable performances and stories. From Sakuraba and Suzuki, to Makabe and Ishii, the big boys all came to play. We then got a playful Kenny Omega and Taguchi match, a feel-good tag match, and three matches that will be remembered fondly from this show. In particular, Nakamura vs. Ibushi, and the emotional main event will certainly be talked about years from now. Whether Okada should have won will be discussed for a while, but from a match perspective, it was quality.
In regards to the English commentary, I was pretty impressed with the gravity that JR brought to the later matches. The first three matches were a bit quick for anyone to call play by play, but once they were given a chance to breathe a bit, the commentary team, and JR in particular, were able to add the necessary texture to the matches. My only real issue was Striker’s over-reliance on smark remarks and using too much insider language. It’s fine to do it on message boards and in conversation with other smarks, but when you’re calling a big event like this, most fans would rather not be reminded that this is scripted. They want to live in the world and be as sucked in as much as possible.
See this show. New Japan is a viable and awesome alternative now that New Japan World is available to everyone. The secret is out. Get in on it.
