Ibushi/Naito II for the block finals?

Naito took a piledriver from the second rope.

That's a crazy bump to take.

I personally thought the fucking lawndart into the corner was the craziest shit

One of the worst, most unsafe moves I hate seeing.

I felt the same way. That was really fucking crazy. Both spots were insane.

I hate to think how far guys will take it this year.

Just wait for Omega vs Ibushi, something tells me Omega is going to dragonplex Ibushi from the top rope to the outside or something crazy like that.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

So they did go with the JJ angle. Not a fan personally, I don't really trust wwf with this kind of storyline. :/

Strowman destroying Samoan Joe and Samoa Joe was great

Ha ha ha I see what ya did there


Lol Meltz literally recorded a podcast while watching G1 night 1 in the background

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

Yeah, I think he mentioned the tana zsj finish, the super piledriver and the main event finish. I doubt he was a fan of the punishment Naito's neck took.

I made a gif of the only bit I really liked from raw

of course, it is BRAUN

Roman bumps like a crazy mofo for Strowman.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

I can't imagine how much vince must love strowman

I'm convinced vince really does use him as his chariot backstage, just walking around berating anyone under 205

 

[excelsiorlef]

He hit fucking gold with Braun.

Literally Raw is Braun at this point.

 

[HashtagLapsed]

Fuck, the people who aren't enjoying the latest season of Twin Peaks are coming across super salty.

They actually think Baron Corbin will be a bigger star than him.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Fuck pretty sure Drifter actually used a real guitar to hit Balor... it's the one he played at the top and I think it had all the electronic hook ups and wiring.


Why the fuck don't you have him use a fucking gimmicked guitar. Idiots.

 

[Hasney]

If Jeff Jarrett knows how to do something and your company doesn't, there's issues there.

Lol seriously. So no wonder Balor's head got fucked up.

You could tell just by the finish of the guitar that it isn't a gimmick. There has never been a gimmicked guitar that looked half as good as that one.

Yeah and how it shattered.

Ironically a gimmicked guitar looks so much better


So they sacrificed safety for a less visually impressive spot.

What in the honest fuck.

Thank god for Braun

And

Forever The Revival

 

[Browny]

Thank god for Braun

Honestly, the only Youtube highlight I'll watch at the mo.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Honestly, the only Youtube highlight I'll watch at the mo.

Revival were good too.

 

[Toki767]

The crowd was basically dead at that Jason Jordan reveal.

I guess they clapped politely because it was Angle.

But even they knew this thing is stupid and going nowhere.

 

[Hasney]

They should have re-signed Ken Kennedy just to have him be someones illegitimate child.

 

[Forkball]

G1 spoilers:

 

[Browny]

Youtube is throttled at work, so will probably watch much later, ta!

No. The answer is never Ken Kennedy.

 

[Hasney]

No. The answer is never Ken Kennedy.

What about "Who's on so many drugs that he even failed a TNA drug test?"

 

[excelsiorlef]

A four-corner survival match with KUSHIDA putting his ROH Television title on the line against Marty Scurll, Dalton Castle, and Hiromu Takahashi is the only other match announced for the Liverpool show as of now

Omg ROH

He also swung it like a baseball bat. He really got behind that thing

Drifting down the road Jinder took.

Get juiced.

Concuss Finn.

The Driftaraja.

 

[excelsiorlef]

For those with Wrestling Observer subscriptions Meltzer and Alvarez are in full on "these fucking idiots" mode in regards to the Angle/JJ shit on this morning's after Raw Observer podcast . It's great

Im listening to it now. Pretty fun.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Im listening to 8it now. Pretty fun.

Them trying to understand how it could have ruined Angle's career is hilarious


Lol and they're just being so dumbfounded about Raw in general and fair enough it was dulllll


Meltzer just keeps asking questions and Alvarez is like I don't fucking know.


Lol they start talking about Titus managing Tanahashi to force him to get the surgery and how that wouldn't work.

My fav thing is just how serious they are.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

You know RAW was bad when Excel was bored by it

 

[excelsiorlef]

Pretty much.

It wasn't even bad. Bad can be fun. It was just boring. It was a complete nothing show except for Braun and sort of The Revival

WWE needs their own Yoshi-Hashi to save them

 

[excelsiorlef]

No one needs that.

Don't expect 5* for Ibushi/Naito from Dave I think. We'll see my guess is 4.75

 

[avengers23]

Has Samson drawn any dimes yet now that he's broken his first guitar?

The answer:

I hope someone somewhere is compiling the best 50 NJPW matches of 2017, we are only in July and the amount of 4 star+ matches they've given us so far is staggering.

 

[giancarlo123x]

Hmm going to the gym and watching G1 while doing cardio sounds great today.

 

[funkystudent]

Whem am I getting my Cena long lost Black twin Darren Young storyline?

 

[excelsiorlef]

I hope someone somewhere is compiling the best 50 NJPW matches of 2017, we are only in July and the amount of 4 star+ matches they've given us so far is staggering.

I think at the end of the year I'll make a list.


Maybe do a podcast for folks here if anyone is interested

Its always funny when Alvarez tries to make a joke and Meltzer responds completely seriously.

Meltzer's legit seriousness is his charm.

That time he earnestly tried to answer someone's joke Simpsons question about if Bret Hart ever managed to sell the Burns Mansion in Springfield is phenomenal.


Everyone there is incredible and entertaining and awesome. Alvarez gets such a bad rap by folks selectively only sharing his rants.

Meltz with the no sells

Lol at Jason Jordan being the son of Kurt. What a waste of a great talent.

Not only did the WWE completely botch the great thing American Alpha had with each other but as now made a ridiculous storyline with Jordan. So unnecessary and he gains nothing from this apart from always being “Kurt’s son” for a while.

People wanted Kurt as a manager well, he is now the father of one of them!

Yeah it's a total waste of Chad Gable

 

[Officerrob]

So Enzo and Cass never won tag team gold (when basically every team gets a run with the belts), and American Alpha were a massive flop on the main roster, I never would have guessed those

 

[Rimfya]

Has anyone compiled a list of how many times WWE has dropped the ball this year alone? It's really amazing how they cut off just about anything at the knees.

For every Braun there's a dozen American Alpha's.
