Probably due to other wrestlers wanting a broken neck. You're dealing with one of the most unsafe moves performed by one of the most unsafe wrestlers, afterall. I wouldn't want to take a body slam from Scott Steiner, much less a piledriver.

They really botched Becky's debut. And how is when Renee mumbled something about red carpet my mind went into the gutter?

I think that's why I like it so much, the fact that it's Scott Steiner doing it. He's 'legit crazy'. Plus piledrivers are awesome.

This might be the first time I've heard "red carpet" in that context
There's a lot of places you can go where people don't tell you what you can or can not post. There's youtube comments, reddit, 4chan, gamefaqs, wwe.com comment sections and so on. Take a pick.
I'm not talking about opinions, I'm talking about not discussing opinions, about just saying people are idiots for enjoying something and that's the end.
You list everything you do while getting ignored and come tell me to learn to start an engaging conversation?
I was disrespectful, people here lose my respect when they clearly give none. That one long disrespectful post I did was what you people do to whoever likes the stuff you don't 10 times a day. I guess it's less nice when you're the target. At least I gave you the decency of trying to explain my point. I wish I was lucky enough to have that.
You've never heard of "does the carpet match the drapes"?
Let's all calm down with a promo from the one and only Lou Thesz. http://youtu.be/YYyBw5CyfXE
Always enjoyed a good moonsault - especially a Muta or Vader one...
How many aerial finishers are there in the E now? I can think of Neville, RVD, Fandango, Sin Cara (at a push)... I want more moonsaults!!
I can't find a Bam Bam moonsault that isn't against LT at WM...
I don't want to antagonize people, but I feel there is this missing link between this being basically a mod-free thread and a free pass to act however. There are people that are feeling down in this community and they are feeling down because of a type of tired attitude that gets repeated every day all day long. We may not want to call it bringing the community down, but it is bringing the community down, at least is bringing me down on it; but hey, I'm the noob here, maybe Sunny is right and I just don't get the joke.
I can totally show myself out if there is an outright refusal to not do this thread's version of a console warz. Except every console is awful.

Shocktreatment from Abyss.
Dutt's moonsault stomp.
I'm not getting involved, I get enough heat and piped in smackdown boo's as it is.

Guys, I'm starting to look forward to WWE 2K15, I think I've missed a step on the annual cycle. Please help and intervene.
Sorry mate, I'm right there with you.
That's some straight up John Cena/Hulk Hogan eat your vitamins crowd pandering. Damn you Thesz!
Don't worry, they'll release details and gameplay footage sooner rather than later and that may intervene for you.
I'm in the same place and haven't bought one since WWE '12. Damn Visual Concepts!
I'm expecting it to be buggy as all hell and the worst CAW yet for the next gen versions, unless they just slap the old parts and moves in. The fact that motion capturing is happening now shows how rushed it is and makes the rumour that 2k asked for a delay until Wrestlemania seem more like a fact.
But I dunno, if they get the basic gameplay engine right, I may enjoy it regardless.
Once again, they're doing motion capturing closer to release date so the game can actually be more up-to-date for once. So that Cesaro actually comes out with Heyman, instead of Jack Swagger and Zeb.
That's why they're doing motion capturing now, it has nothing to do with rushing, but with delivering a proper product. Critisism and skepticism is fine, but lets not go overboard.

So, he stole that part of Eddie Kingston's gimmick?
Oh, they're friends, and Kingston agreed to it. Huh.
So WrestleGAF: what is your favorite signature/finishing maneuver, and which wrestler (alive or dead) performed it the best in your eyes? The reason I'm asking this now is because I just thought of it, and ForeignGAF is up and wide awake to be able to give answers immediately for once.
I'll post my own when I wake up in the morning.
Kobashi's chops.
Right on, brother. As wrestling fans, we are often our own worst enemies. This and most other wrestling threads online is like being at a show. One person starts a clever chant, and a few more people join in and then repeat that chant in other matches as well.
Positive post of the day: I'm really enjoying Ring of Honor this year.

I don't get hyped, I stay hyped.
I hope Bull Dempsey does not pollute my screen weekly. I don't think I can come to like him ironically. Tyler Breeze is awful on the mic. Made Alex Riley look good on commentary.....

Marginalized in my field yet again and this time not even by my employer~ Presentation at a big expo was rejected, guess my years of experience in the field aren't as worthy as a junior engineer's single month of research that will result in a glorified sales pitch.
Close to cutting a pipe bomb promo in the office today....if I weren't sidelined with strep throat as well.
Wrasslegaf someone get me a PS4, I need to feel A moment of triumph this week like that hospital couple.
EDIT-also looking forward to part 2 of talk is jericho....even if it promises to have Egypt in it, aughhhhhhhhhh.

Lol, there is a god damn electric sitar in that. For the Undertaker.
He did it fairly regularly in squash matches on 1993/1994 Raw. But they looked pretty safe. Well, as safe as that move can be.
Sblargh, this is just a bad time in wrasslin and when things pick up, the positivity in the thread picks up. We went from a great build up to WM and everything was fun in here. Then everything went to shit after WM and it shows in the posting. The NJPW guys will be in a good mood pretty soon with the G1. WWE fans should be in a good mood depending on how good MITB is and when Bork comes back. Indie fans have BOLA coming up. So there should be some more positivity in the thread coming in the next month or two.
The gimmick posters are what they are. I'm sure there are gimmick posters in every community thread. Someone needs to tell them they don't have to hit the gimmick so god damn hard with every post, though. Things will pick up soon. MMA-GAF is currently in the same funk, except I think they all enjoy taking their frustrations out on Dana/UFC. UFC is really the only show in town for them and they've been terrible for at least a couple of years and showing no signs of getting better. WWE at least currently has a base for a better future. UFC is doing shows headlined by two guys with losing records/streaks and filling undercards with guys who don't even have wikis.
Network positivity will perk up when they dump some more old school stuff (which should be soon, with SNME and TNT) and Nitros starting up.
BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!

Y'all think we can we get Egypt to recreate that scene?
Sup, Ken Patera?
I'm very much looking forward to its debut on the PS4. I know if I get it it'll only take, like, 24 hours to be like "why did I buy this trash?" but I can't help it. Has there even been any screenshots, etc. released?
Have you never watched Dragon Ball?

I've gotten into the part where Heyman is discussing the way he booked Edge. Really interesting stuff.
I'm gonna bet yes, but each in separate DLC packs.

Heyman should just be every podcast guest forever. I could listen to him talk about wrestling for days.

People been saying the show was amazing, and Heyman was amazing, but...
Is Jericho tolerable? I can't stand him.

Still listening to the podcast but Jericho is fine, he's usually pretty decent at staying out of the way of his guests but you do have to sit through his usual lengthy introduction full of singing and Egypt >[
Heyman's interview here is a lot meatier than his one on Stone Cold's. No hashtags to make fun of this time I guess :U
Listen to it you'll see what I mean. Totally takes you out of the interview.
