First off, I'd like to thank Sunny for pulling some strings and getting me reinstated.


Secondly, I have been informed by the mods that if I wish to continue my posting career on GAF that it would be wise for me to avoid engaging with Bean Breath and Aiii. But I am back, friends. I appreciate the kind words for those of you that had kind words for me.

It's pretty fucking obvious that the mods are letting Stro trade in his alt account (Bionic) in order to get his main back, next time space out your announcements jerk

Bit let down by that tbh, was hoping for something a bit punchier for Zack. I'm sure it'll be good, I just don't see him getting past the first round to some more interesting matches.

That MMA style 'overpower an arm submission by showing your STRENGTH and slamming him' spot is the new double foot stomp or lungblower in terms of overuse. It's especially great how overused it is on Del Rio because it makes his finisher look weak as fuck. Like, 'oh every single person can overpower your finishing submission.'

Powerbomb out of a triangle or an armbar has become such a staple move for every remotely big or strong type wrestler. Also, dudes doing the 2nd rope deadlift suplex off the apron into the ring.

Yeah, I was hoping for Zack vs Omega, but he has wrestled Cole before (a bunch in wXw and the last time he was in the US at CZW's Best of the Best X in 2011) and although it's a tough match-up for him, I could see them getting him over by beating the former champion.

Watching main event now and things I have reached my quota:

Sheamus
Last man standing
Kendo sticks

Sheamus is now on the "I want to like you, please be less boring" category.

I love Last Man Standing matches, but they have been ruined this generation. It's been more about doing creative protected finishes rather than brutalising your opponent into not standing up.

When does the G1 start? Any word on Ustream?
Click to expand...

It starts on the 21st, but we've had no more information as of yet - we'll likely hear something on Sunday or Monday, after the current tour finishes.

Also, it's worth noting that last year we didn't get any conformation or ordering info until a week before the tournament started and, with Dragon Gate running an iPPV on the 20th, I'm hopeful that the tournament will be on Ustream or that New Japan can find some other method of streaming it.

He bloody well better be! Or it's the knackers yard for him and we'll be selling Andy Carroll Superglue in the club shop to recoup some of that £16m we spunked on him.

I'm quite pleased with our current signings. No idea who any of them are, obviously, but that's half the fun - foreign bloke, cost a bit, looks good on youtube, could potentially be an embarrassment or a revelation.

I thought the duct tape finish used in the Cena Vs Batista LMS was very clever but that should have been saved for a light hearted mid card match rather than a WWE title PPV main event.

I haven't really followed this thread for the past week. Did I miss anything?

Smackdown is pretty shitty this week, by the way. The roster was thin as fuck. No Cesaro, no Rollins, no Ambrose, no Wyatts. The Jericho/Orton match was by far the standout. Seeing Orton live really made me appreciate the little things he does to work the crowd and make the match engaging. The main event basically sets the formula for every future Reigns title match too.

the key is to leave for awhile, then come back when you need the itch scratched. This is for fun, not out of obligation.

The local radio ads for the show are promoting "the first lumberjack match at MSG in 25 years" between Cena & Bray Wyatt with a lumberjack team led by Flair vs a team led by HHH
