It would be the greatest moment in pro wrestling history.

Only if the feud ends with Rusev beating down Angle and making him tap to the camel clutch.

 

[Recall]

He just needs the right feud to shine or I stand by my earlier suggestion of have him do some tag team stuff for a while so he can build his persona. If they partner him with the right person and his lack of charisma/mic skills is less of an issue. Plus if one them turns heel down the road you've got a ready made feud.

You can shine in any feud. You can sell, you can emote and you can try.

Crews did nothing interesting. He got beat up, did his moves, roll up pin and then smiled. Anyone on the roster can do that. There was no determination or hint of emotion or struggle, it felt by the numbers in a match set up as an "old" generation guy bring afronted by the new gen.

It's The Accolade you mark!

 

[Lightning Count]

It's The Accolade you mark!

Same move different name.

 

[Recall]

I would mark out like a motherfucker if Angle's music started up during a Rusev promo

And out walked The Patriot?

 

[SallyIsNow]

Same move different name.

 

[SallyIsNow]

And out walked The Patriot?Mr. America

.

 

[Lightning Count]

If they brought back Mr America/Hulk Hogan to feud with Rusev I'll throw my fucking TV in the trash.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

They're bringing back Hogan eventually, and it's the last negative thing that can possibly happen that will erupt the thread in fire

WrassleGAF has already given in to the 4th Reigns title run in 8 months. Might as well get Hogan's return over with too

Sgt Slaugter & Rusev vs Mr America & Hulk Hogan at Summerslam

Might finally find out what Mr America looks like under that hood.

 

[imBask]

Hogan will bring himself back once he buys WWE with all of that sweet Gawker moneh

 

[JesseEwiak]

tbf jaywalking on most North American roads is pretty fucking dangerous considering how wide they are and how much larger the average car is over there. It's a dumb law but I can see the reasons why it exists, especially on the Vegas strip.

Las Vegas & Flamingo is actually a pretty dangerous main intersection too. If I was a cop seeing somebody randomly running across the road when the walk signal wasn't on, I might think that person had a mental issue.

 

[Heroman]

Same move different name.

Next you are going to tell me that the bank statement and the cross face are the same move.

 

[Data West]

Hogan will absolutely be back in the next 5 years.

Absolutely 100%

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Hogan will absolutely be back in the next 5 years.

Absolutely 100%

for sure

 

[Lightning Count]

No because Sasha leans all the way back on the bank statement compared the crossface.

WWE is like fuck it lol

Everybody listen to this at half speed. I cannot stop laughing.

 

[Sephzilla]

Yeah I don't think anyone doubts that Hogan will eventually come back. Shit, Vince will probably introduce a snobby ringside journalist character who's meant to parody Gawker just so Hogan can legdrop him

THIS is wrestling. Not that flippy dippy bullshit.

Jesus Christ, even the official Sonic the Hedgehog twitter account went in on Mighty No 9

Skit with New Day?

Really. It be amazing if all 3 are still around. 5 years in wrestling is a LONG time.

Unless he dies first, yes, I agree.

[ANuclearError]

STAMFORD, Conn. — WWE has suspended Joe Anoa`i (Roman Reigns) for 30 days effective immediately for his first violation of the company’s talent wellness policy.

http://www.wwe.com/article/roman-reigns-suspended


So this just happened.

 

[BronsonLee]

ROMAN GET OFF THE POT

 

[imBask]

Vince will like him even more now that he knows he's on steroids

 

[Sephzilla]

Well this probably explains why Roman lost the title clean

Kinda Random but related.

So I watched 59 episodes of Game of Thrones in 3 weeks. I knew nothing of the series.

Spoiler

you know nothing john cena!

But....I wanted to see if I liked it and be part of the normal human race. It was good,worth it.

Saying all that.

I re-watched Episode 1. And you know...It's like watching Wrestlemnia 6/7... take your pick.

edit: OMG WUT

 

[Penguin]

That's insane... you'd think he'd get the special test that folks like Hunter and Cena get

Yeah if this hadn't happened he likely would have retained.

 

[SymbiantXenos]

So thats why Reigns dropped the belt.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]
