AKA "Elgin Takes Japan"

Hi, big bloated OTs are unnecessary in this day and age.

If you want WWE:
http://network.wwe.com

--Note - WWE will be broadcasting their house show in Japan on the Network. Tune in. It'll be interesting.

If you want Lucha Underground:
http://www.sling.com

If you want TNA:

If you want NJPW:
http://njpwworld.com

And other assorted shows.

The G1 Climax starts in late July. Expect a lot of talk about it. Find out more at njpwworld.com - also our valued posted Bootaaay typically writes a guide. Keep an eye open. It's a GREAT point of entry into the G1.

BOLA 2015 is the most good looking goddamn thing, but you gotta wait until August. The bad news is that it won't be streamed live.

Wall of Shame:

Enjoy talking wrestling! We will have community events as we go. Don't mistake the lack of content for a lazy OP - we are in serious need of trimming the fat. Quality posters, not just quality posts!

You mean Philip Brooks, per his official Reebok UFC jersey?

I'm watching through 1996 WCW and Brian Pillman is legitimately insane. First he hits Heenan and causes him to drop the f-bomb on live TV, and I just hit that Superbrawl match with Sullivan where Pillman outs him as booker, walks out and flips off the crowd. He was fired immediately after.

 

[Fox318]

THATS THE WALL

I miss these outdoor nitro sets.

I know they didn't get money for tickets but they were so fucking fun to watch.

Everyweek its that curvy wall HD shit-a-tron and those black padded walls every week.

Ok Mr. Chicago Made Punk at what weight will you be fighting at? Any plans to fight Kimbo?

[Sibersk Esto]

Please tell me that's a swiss thing or else that would be incredibly lame

 

[BronsonLee]

Oh right. I picked up the slack for you all!

 

[Mr. Luchador]

I'm already searching, I want to be cool like Cesaro... or should I say... COOLsaro.

He is absolutely certifiable at that point. Pillman got fuckin crazy in a bad way. Puttin his hands on our dear friend Heenan...WHAT THE FUCK indeed!

Yep, gonna get working on it once the blocks are announced at DOMINION on Sunday.

Can't wait to see who will have to deal with Elgin. All the possibilities...I hope he brings his A-game and doesn't embarrass himself.

Yeah, the Tanahashi match didn't give me much hope, but apparently they had nothing but the finish planned in advance (which is the way Tanahashi usually works his matches) so I hope Elgin has better chemistry with the roster at large than he did with Tana.

I'm not so concerned about how Elgin will get himself over with the smarky international crowd (because, let's face it, most won't even give him a fair chance), but it's going to be interesting to see how the Japanese crowd reacts. I'd like to see him paired with someone like Tenzan for his first match, he'd get good reactions for throwing around a guy of Tenzan's size.

 

[Angry Grimace]

So does this "house show" mean its gonna be presented without commentary?

 

[Data West]

i'm number one while working overtime for the first 3 weeks of the month.

this community really is dead


Too bad BOLA isn't streaming. It deserves an OT way more than that joke of a G1 Gedo is putting together

 

[NoRéN]

Cena's completing his job by dropping the title to Owens this month. Been saying it for a while. Best part of it all is once Owens drops the NXT belt I can remove RAW from my viewing rotation and enjoy NXT that much more. Fact!

Well, unless brock destroys more people of Charlotte comes up soon.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

So does this "house show" mean its gonna be presented without commentary?

I don't think so. I think they'll do a little more and provide commentary, not unlike the MSG Old School eps.

 

[FallingEdge]

These UFC Fight Kits are carny as shit. Way more embarrassing than wrestling shirts.

They're honestly terrible. Just a mess all around. Nothing cringeworthy, but more a "...fucking WHY?" Just...bad. Not gross yuck omg I can't believe someone would wear that but a...why?

 

[Fox318]

 

[Serpentine]

that's a different first reply. usually it's way more over the top vulgar!

 

[NoRéN]

How Cesaro hasn't been allowed to come out in a suit and just uppercut the brains out of people is beyond my comprehension. Dude is incredibly handsome and cuts a fine figure.

 

[British Monsoon]

What a world we live in where a tournament involving some of the top wrestling talent in the world can be considered a joke. SMH.

 

[Angry Grimace]

No one really knows what happened there but Bischoff claims the Bookerman angle was supposed to be a worked shoot. Pillman was supposed to go to ECW and develop a crazyman character and then come back, but then Pillman actually just left and went to WWF.

 

[FallingEdge]

I expect to see a shirt like this on wweshop. Just looks awful.

Roots of Fight does a much better job. Should have x-copy that design.

Who cares if everyone knows the end result

 

[BronsonLee]

That's because Tana doesn't suck ass and overchoreograph everything

 

[avengers23]

1. He's European, not American.
2. He's Swiss.
3. He's balding.
4. He has a slight accent and tripped over words that time in that promo.
5. He has pepperoni nipples.
6. He was associated with Chris Hero, so he's probably secretly fat.
