The thing about the Rainmaker is that it's 95% on the guy taking the move, not the guy doing it. If it isn't sold properly it looks like shit, regardless of how it's performed.

No no no you don't understand, any heat is good heat which is why more fans than ever are tuned in

I feel your pain beef. My summers are conservative due to working in the school system but I got asked to work summer school so I'm glad to be working .Pretty sure Roman could do a better Reignsmaker than CAWdy Rhodes
I made him tap out in the hotel lobby after EVO. He don't want none.
I have $5 to my name until my job starts in 2 weeks, I ain't going anywhere.

Okada will truly be one of the all time greats if he manages to pull a **** match out of cody

It will be funny if he doesn't and Cody delivers a worse match than Fale.

Yeah, if...
Watch G.L.O.W.
10 years since I completely checked out on wrestling. I mean, I was rarely watching by this point but this sealed it.

Season 3 episode 7 of Twin Peaks was great.
Caught up and ready for Sunday!

Awesome! Episode 7 was so good. Coop living that shoot life. Ben Horne listening to a humming sound. I loved it.
My brother just finished off The Secret History of Twin Peaks so I'll finally get to give it a read soon.
On another topic, I wonder if GLOW will be enough of a draw to bring newfriends into WrassleGAF.

You need to have more faith in GODkada.

You also need to have certain type of body to make the move look killer. For example, Havok is just too skinny to make the move look like it could end a match. Seven is a bit too slow to make it look like a match finisher.
Also with Okada the move is basically the story of the match. Is all about how Okada works your body so you can take a full rainmaker and how the challenger tries to counter / dodge / or lately embrace the hit.

I have faith in Okada, don't get me wrong.
I had to go to a 'naming day' today for my mate's child's 1st birthday. I tried to explain DDT to everyone since I have been watching it so much lately and it didn't go over very well. I think I may have actually lost friends.

Not too confusing to me. Black is a guy on the rise that they want to give big notable wins to, and
Fish

He went full Australia smashing someone with a whisky bottle at least. He glassed Foley in ECW too IIRC.
When it comes to NXT I'm more surprised Fish is there before O'Reilly. How did that happen?
FallingEdge

yeah but I figured Fish would be a bigger deal and I don't see him as the same tier as Young, figured they would give him a program to build him up, wins, etc, blah blah blah

I think a lot of people are vastly overthinking the Okada/Cody match. I see so many now saying that it has to be a fuck finish or Cody has to win because there's no way ROH would want him to immediately job.
Okada is pinning him clean in the middle. ROH ain't shit in this relationship and if you haven't figured that out by now, then you just haven't been paying attention.
They might. They very well still could. A loss to Black is far, far from a killer at this stage.

I laughed at that. Thank the gods the show is only 30ish minutes per episode, I only got three or four episodes in but the remaining six won't take me long at all as long as I don't have a bunch of distractions... I'll almost certainly have a lot of distractions.
