Oh wow, this before and after Bayley pic shows some real fan passion. That Hardyz shirt:
I saw this Irish team, 2 Unlimited, one of them has a Hardy Boyz tattoo and I SWEAH TO GAWD he was wearing WWE boxer shorts during a match with the SDS.

You "Prettiest Dropkick" folks have your work cut out for you, this is insanely pretty.
What is wrong with these people?

That is a pretty damn awesome missile dropkick. Here's a good Inoki one for comparison;
Missile dropkick is a whole different thing, though. The four elements to a great dropkick are; height, placement, power & rotation - missile dropkicks take height out of the equation (although Wright got some insane hang time there, I said goddamn) and usually the rotation, due to the different landing.

Bayley is the best and I'm so psyched for her on the main roster
Feel free to quote this the day she debuts with different music and a boring normal entrance sans inflatable tubemen

Great exchange.
On the LAW it was mentioned that he and Paul are both booked for tonight.
Side note, but Jason Agnew of the LAW hosts this god awful Wipeout for kids show called Splatalot. https://youtu.be/-wweqb237w8?t=28
I can't believe he has the balls to criticize a kids show for two hours every week when he is part of that.

Well, damn. Buddy Landell's died, apparently. RIP.

Alex Wright was criminally slept on for his high flying moves. If it wasn't for that stupid dance, he would have been on the main card in no time.
And he was only 19 years old when he debuted in WCW. Dude still isn't even 40 yet and was recently at the performance center. That dance would be over as fuck today.

That's a shame - here's a great writeup of him from a few years ago. Worth reading:

The dance got him over though...

To this day I never got Alberto's character - I liked when he was a Rich Mexican guy but then it sort of just fizzled out.

Yup. Height, placement, power. All awesome. The only downside is his rotation, Styles rotates better. And Naito, for that matter. By my reckoning;
1. Okada
2. Styles/Haste
3. Ibushi/Naito

Apparently the number one reason Vince isn't too hot on investing in a tag division is that if one person gets hurt, both the team and the division itself gets fucked. Can't say I blame him.

TNA's schedule said:
My opinion about Alberto Del Rio can be summed up in a gif
This guy got way more opportunities than he deserved. His character was basically a knockoff JBL. His personal ring announcer had better mic skills than him. He was okay in the ring, but nothing remarkable what so ever. Fans never really got behind him too much as a face, and never gave him very much heat when he was a heel. I'd also say ADR was one of the most undeserving Royal Rumble winners ever as well.
I wore a tee shirt for the Immortal Hulk Hogan out in public this weekend, thinking the power of retro culture gave me some safety. A portly unshaven movie theater attendee starts walking towards my direction and shouts "Sir! Sir!... Hulk Hogan! Your shirt. Yes. It's a shame what happened to Dusty Rhodes."
In the middle of a very crowded theater lobby.
Have he no shame?

I love Luke Harper and I warmed up to Rowan... But them splitting from Wyatt is one of those mistakes that I wish WWE would stop making, lol.

I saw a fat dude wearing a King of Strong Style shirt while out and about with friends drinking and I didn't acknowledge it.

Given that all 3 of them are jobbers with the exact same gimmick they had before they broke up, it makes basically no sense that the Wyatt family is gone.
It was a lot more entertaining when Bray just trolled matches by sitting at ringside and wasn't wrestling so often so he had some kind of mystique when he actually would fight.
You could replace "Jurassic World" in this sentence with literally any popular franchise and your post would probably still be true.
VEEEEERRRRYYYY likely the end of TNA.
Seeing how they have handled the recent debuts of the newer NXT class on Raw, I have some hope for the women as well. I don't think Trips will allow for a dead end gimmick.
ADR's character (which is essential for a guy like him; look at other minorities in the company and how over any of them are without an ounce of a character; example, Big E) was wiped out when they decided have Christian turn heel for no reason to face poops in bags for a summer long feud. Next, he's randomly inserted into a god awful feud between Kane and Big Shoe, then cashes in on CM Punk in that sinkhole of a storyline and is a nobody guy behind Punk, Nash, and Triple H because that's where the TV time was sent to. How is any heel suppose to get over in this case? it's a lost cause. He got a push because he has good size, looks great, and was hugely popular in Mexico. His mic work isn't needed to be extraordinary. But I've seen him cut good ones in LU without the terrible script the WWE gives out.
Two of the pushes easily less deserved are Orton and Sheamus. Terrible, forced rivalry. Boring ass "let me get my shit in" moveset, forced accolades that mean nothing in a fake sport and numerous main event runs as champ and challenger. And in 2015 they're still getting significant TV time.

I thought it was OKAY for what it was. I have no reverence towards the series since I was born two days after the first one came out. I thought the last 20 minutes were fun and you can tell it wasn't taking itself too seriously.
Also the CEO dude looks like Gary Sinise so much it's kinda scary.
Bryce Dallas Howard tho
Knowing I helped improve their shitty taste

Orton is terrible because face-Orton is terrible.
