I hear ya, Sunflower. Next you'll be telling me players use curse words in REAL sports!
This season the Raiders might have to resort to that
Taz coming back? Buddies with Paul Heyman?Maybe Taz is just coming back for commentary to replace JBL or something.
No way does he leave his brothers!
On the other hand, a Tenay-only broadcast would be delicious.

Brandon Sylvestry (Low Ki/Senshi), 32, has been telling promoters that have contacted him that hes retired. Hes moving on into voice over work. He had been in talks with All Japan, but had asked for a huge guarantee. At one point they had an agreement but All Japan backed off. He did say that with the right program with a major group, he is open to coming back, but not unless its something major.
Shield won all the mid card titles, they also lost their first match as a unit, D-Bryne is getting a huge push, Mark Henry wore an amazing jacket and SWERVED everyone by faking retirement, Ziggler cashed in MITB and got a concussion like a week later finally came back and lost it in his first defense (he's kind of a face now, while ADR is full on heel), Punk came back and got Borked, Christian came back, RVD is coming back, Curtis Axel (Michael McGillicutty(El Hijo del Perfcto)) defeated Cena and HHH (via countouts). I think that's about it.
The sooner you guys realize that Cena vs. Henry is gonna end with an AA off a ladder into oblivion (or some variation on that), the less disappointed you will be. At this point in time, our good friend Bo Dallas has a better chance of winning the WWE title than ole Mark Henry.
Also, fuck Tazz. Please don't come back ;_;
You forgot about AJ and Kaitlyn damnit!
When people talk about his strength, they're talking about how Big E has broken almost every record within the WWE for lifts. I think his deadlift record is 545lbs, which beats guys like Mark Henry, Cena, and Lesnar IIRC.
Thanks for the NJPW recommendations, been looking to get back into NJPW now that I'm caught up with PWG and Chikara is uh, gone. Excited to watch a wrestling promotion with some hype for once, it's been a while.
NJPW has SO much to offer and they're having a banner year. Incredible talent, solid production values that rival WWE's, and some serious Heritage Heritage with their Heritage championships belts.
Simple booking, but effective. Amazing stuff. Not to say there's not some stinkers there, but the brighter the light, the darker the shadows.
Selkies! said:Just watched the Ki/Devitt/Ibushi dome match, that was a lot of fun. I usually hate 3 man matches, but the third man here really helped keep the pace up the whole way through.
Selkies! said:Yea I was never really big on NJPW, even when I was watching puro regularly I was way more excited about NOAH or DG or BJW. I think the only NJPW matches I've watched from the last decade are like the Tanahashi/Nakamura matches, some super jr stuff and a few NOAH crossover tags where Sugiura dropped dudes on there heads for 25 minutes. I think I've watched more Okinawa Pro shows then I have NJPW so it's a pretty fresh product for me, and the production makes it easy to watch for someone who's only really been watching wrestling casually for the last few years.
Selkies! said:I need something to watch that isn't PWG because as much as I love it those shows are exhausting and I can't really watch more than an hour at a time tops. US indy wrestling is getting pretty depressing to follow in general so it only makes sense.
Oh yeah? Well Cena is about to deadlift Mark Henry while being hurt. WWE record.
The story of the show isnt one that a lot of people will want to hear. It was a risk building the show around Daniel Bryan as the main character no matter how loud those in the building cheer for him. And his street fight with Randy Orton did a terrible overrun number, coming off it being the main event on the least watched non-holiday Smackdown show since it started airing on Syfy. For people who complain about John Cena, as a general rule, his segments deliver, particularly in the main event slot.
8.16 Million Viewers Watch Chicago Blackhawks Win Stanley Cup on NBC
GAME 6
Last nights game drew a 4.7 U.S. household rating and 8.16 million viewers on NBC, up 52% and 66%, respectively, vs. last year (3.1 and 4.929 million viewers). This years series-clinching contest was the second-most watched Stanley Cup Final Game 6 since 1994, trailing only Chicagos 2010 series-clinching Game 6 against Philadelphia (6/9/10, 8.279 million).
Game 6 peaked with 10.424 million viewers from 10:45-11 p.m. ET.
It takes time and find it funny with Meltzer should know better but is starting to create a panic about Bryan.
Meltzer is starting to stir up shit with the IWC. First saying that the conversation that Shawn had with Vince was about Daniel Bryan and then saying this:
Love how he blames Bryan for Smackdown when the ratings were not doing great before and the match between him and Orton was not advertised at all on Raw. It was him versus Ambrose not as the main event and people weren't even sure the match was happening due to the injury.
Also for the overrun rating hockey played a part:
It basically peaked during there match. The real problem I see is Meltzer and Vince are the same that they panic over one bad quarter rating and basically kills any chance of making new stars because you don't make them in a week. It takes time and find it funny with Meltzer should know better but is starting to create a panic about Bryan.
Problem here is listening to the Observer Radio, Meltzer is not criticizing Bryan but criticizing how he has been booked. He was also looking at the ratings thing more as something that would be used as a source of validation if someone up top (Vince) didn't believe in Bryan and wanted "proof" he couldn't draw. He did specifically state he didn't agree with that idea that Bryan can't draw, and said anyone, no matter who they are, takes some time to become a draw and that's with a consistent and serious push which Bryan hasn't ever gotten.
Well he did the ratings thing with Punk as well when he was champion. I think that he starting to stir the fear that everyone is thinking is that Vince will kill his push which does help getting customers who all fear this happening. Its going to need Triple H, Shawn and Regal to prevent this. Vince has a love affair with Cena that kills creating new stars and I hope he realizes that Bryan needs to beat him to make him a star.
His heart simply wasn't in it while at TNA. I will hold my anger back while he is on commentary in WWE to see if his heart has returned. Because as we all know, you can't teach heart.Aren't you angry Beef? angry that the man who once called you a "fuckface" is possibly returning to regularly viewed television where his crude words may very well reach more innocent ears.
Yep.Who cares about AJ. Just fastforward everything he is in and you don't even have to acknowledge the guy.
Yep.
If people really fear for and want to save Bryan's push, don't spend your money on Meltzer, but buy a Daniel Bryan shirt or action figure. Vince likes money.
