Lol Coach getting trolled on Sportscenter. Showing a clip of him and Rock. Rock makes Coach dance and he's dancing funny.

July Wrasslin' |OT 2| Monday Night Raw and Thunder Live!

It's been good but a step below recent years. Losing Shinsuke, AJ and Ibushi plus Tanahashi wrestling with a bad injury leaves a big hole of talent to fill. Marufuji and SANADA have been great so far though.
Also personal matters like a busy job and a thankfully improving social life means I have to catch up on shows far later instead of live so I haven't been able to post about it much anywhere.

Too bad he didn't get the win at Mania 19. He deserved it.

It's been good so far. NJPW are solid in general so it's hard to have much to discuss lol
Woke up, didn't feel so great. I tried to call in, and they said it was too busy and to call back. So I decided to just go in and try to get done as soon as possible. Got in, worked like 30 minutes, and then told them I was going home sick. Super dizzy, so I'm sitting here watching UPF and when that's over, bed for like 20 hours.

The highs may not be as high in this year's G1, but the lows have not been as low.

Sasha is going to end up being wrestling's version of waifu isn't she?
Or a bulletproof vest ...

Definitely the biggest wtf was Booker not beating HHH at 19. Worse than Punk losing to HHH at NoC 11

In case you were wondering if BIG E is the best

If Cody stayed, would he still be StarDust? Would he be in the Zigger spot?

Him not winning after all the shit HHH did and said was disgusting.
I wonder if Goldberg signing with the WWE caused them to change their plans at WM19 and keep the title on HHH.
Aye. She, Becky and Bayley have been that for a while. You can argue that AJ Lee was the first. This is a good chunk of your women's wrestling fanbase, folks. Get used to it.

A one day reign wouldn't have been complained about anywhere near as much as that whole build and result are deservedly complained about today.

Elgin vs. Omega was frigging fantastic. Elgin won.
Naito vs. Shibata was pretty good also. Lots of hate. Shibata won by making Naito pass the fuck out.

The article says he's a jobs coach and helps people with disabilities find employment.
That's a nice, feel-good article right there. Guy gets to help others and live his dream.

The roster is insane. Pretty sure most of that is going to talent and travel.

damn I love that camera work, no dumb close ups and wonky camera angles to hide the action, why can't WWE do it like this?

I remember a friend of mine who was from the uk wanted to spoil it for me so bad. So I watch the match and I'm like, oh hbk won, good. So I ask him what was so important, he's like oh it's nothing, I thought hbk actually won the title but he didn't.
Mickie was before that

WrestleBritGaf - got tickets for Brixton Progress. I'm very excited, never been to a Progress event before!
I also got tickets for ROH in London, not watched a show of there's since 2006 (was when I converted full time to PWG) so should be interesting.

Cody would probably got rid of the StarDust gimmick and most likely been in Darren Young's spot vs Miz

PROGRESS card for tomorrow, proper stacked;
Nice, you've probably picked a good one for your first PROGRESS show! I got front row for ROH in London, hoping it delivers as the prices were pretty expensive compared to PROGRESS.

How much do you think a S tier jobber like James Ellsworth starts making after a RAW appearance?

Back in the 90s,you may get about 300-500 per appearance if you're not on contract.
Had this discussion with some people last night about PWG and how much it's fallen off. Tickets are hotter than ever, I guess, but it does come off like a small servicing crowd that just want to go so they can chant and FallingEdge can sweat. Rather than build an interesting promotion, they just grab 'who's hot this week' from Europe, Lucha, and ex-WWE guys and don't even attempt to build interesting stories.
The issue with that is the promotions those guys come from are already doing that and usually have better production values. I can watch a better top to bottom card from AAW doing the same things PWG used to do for a cheaper price with better booked matches, for example.
AAW does the supercard booking of indie guys and they put out better matches, for example. Pentagon vs Hero and Pentagon vs Fenix at AAW are better than anything out of PWG in the last 5 years.
