What is your deal?
Why does that make us weirdos? It's a shirt.

No change. I was ripped off.
Don't ask me, they are the ones embarrassed to wear a wrestling shirt in public.

Officially signed for CHIKARA's show 'The Great Escape' on July 28th in Portland, ME;
For the Grand Championship of CHIKARA!
Can't wait for this one, loved Sara's match with El Generico a few months back, and her match against Claudio last year, and it's awesome to see a promotion take female wrestlers seriously.

What? There's been plenty of change.
CM Punk would have never had this shirt before all that stuff went down.

Sucks he had to turn back so close to the summit, but frostbite and hypoxia are no joke.

You want to impress me? Wear a Kane mask in public. Then again, the amount of women that will swarm you may cause a riot.
Yeah it is, I just lost £15 last night because of Portugal and Boca Juniors on 4 different bets.
You wear it.
Man, I have no idea who to bet on tonight. Germany looking stronger overall right?
Damn, that really does suck. But it's the best thing to do given the circumstances.
Maybe I should when I see that girl I was talking about this weekend. It might cause her to go rapid with excitement, though.
Yeah, they should go through, but Italy has always beaten them historically.
You talking to her by twitter?

I got issue one. Didn't know 2 was out yet.
Nah, facebook.
You missing out on the twitter girls too.
Everyone keeps telling me this. One of my best friends met his current girl through twitter, but I don't get how it happens. Me and this girl actually know each other outside of fb, but people seem to just spark random relationships through twitter.
Just tweet them a pic where you're wearing a mask, #KaneIsMyGod, you'll get her and every Kane fangirl's attention.
I'm betting on Italy. AWWWWW YEAH
Yeah, but these Kane fan girls are a little TOO crazy. I mean, I love the guy, but I don't worship him.

Paddy Power is one of the bigger bookmakers int he UK/Ireland.
Only real problem is there customer service is kinda terrible - but it gets the job done if you needed
Bet on Osters. They have terrible odds for the upcoming match (as they are playign bottom of the league), but they have good odds usually. They have never lost this season in their league.
I thought you digged crazy chicks.
Yeah, but not that crazy, lol.

WWE NXT 6/27/12
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9m8rP55To0
Seth Rollins vs. Jiro
Jinder Mahal vs. Jason Jordan
Leo Kruger vs. Aiden English
The Usos vs. The Ascension
Richie Steamboat vs. Rick Victor
Antonio Cesaro vs. Dante Dash
Johnny Curtis vs. Derek Bateman
Thoughts:
- Seth Rollins still looks like he's trying to be a Go-Bot version of CM Punk.
- Jinder is awesome, wish they would let him work more promos in English though (I also wish he was face but that would never happen).
- Ascension is the most laughably over the top entrances/themes I've ever seen. I feel like they have a high chance of becoming joke characters fast.
- Cesaro has new music that is more like what I'd expect they would give him just as I was growing to like his upbeat theme. Not sure how I feel about this, other than thinking that they should have paid for the rights to Rammstein.
- Bray Wyatt promos continue to hype.
-Curtis and Bateman feel like they're stuck in a weird NXT purgatory, wherein they'll have to fight each other daily until the end of time. Each day one of them must be destroyed and then the battles starts anew the next morning. I think that makes them Odin and Surtur

Eventually, they'll make the big leagues and be stuck wrestling each other for another 10 years... just like Ziggles and Kofi.
Perhaps they'll break through the glass ceiling and get a chance to gain some notoriety and recognition for themselves once Cena retires at the ripe old age of 60.

YES shirt
D.Bry tap or snap shirt
CM Punk Best in the World shirt (2 of them)
Dragon Gate shirt
WCW shirt

I wear them all in public. I really don't see what the big deal is.

Well, you know how Funky Kane gets down.
No way!
Me neither, not sure why its such a mark of shame to wear a wrestling shirt. Only reason I can even think of is that it looks like crap in which case I wouldn't even buy the shirt in the first place.

Why hasn't Ohno wrestled at any of the NXT tapings?
Neither do I, first off, most people could give two shits about what you wear. Secondly, those that do you probably don't give two shits about.
So fuck it, wear it with pride. I love wearing my YES! shirt.

Future robotics will be advanced enough that Cena will replace damaged limbs with robotic ones, WWE would sooner turn Cena into a robotic husk with his one hundred year old heart barely functioning in the cold metal shell than elevate new talent so I consider this a high possibility.
He will be on next week's episode, iirc.

Great. I was worried he'd be kept off of tv until he got in better shape.
Mahal turns more and more Hindu every time I see him. Eventually he'll look like the leader of the Kwik-E-Mart

That would make for an amazing gimmick repackage.
Make him a face Apu ripoff that runs a merchandise stand at ringside.
He leaves his booth to wrestle whenever miscreant heels try to swipe his stock, vandalize his statue of Ganesha or knock over his magazine racks.
If he ever says "A Jolly Rancher is not a sprinke" I'll lose it.
It's a bit embarrassing how much better NXT's roster is than RAW/SD's now that the FCW guys have been added.
You've got Rollins, Wyatt, Steamboat, Ascension, Cesaro (though he's on SD a bit too), and of course, Ambrose. What's more they're all in focus, they get matches every week and video packages, etc. No bullshit angles so far, just good young workers.
The likes of Rollins or Steamboat have an uphill battle in that they're another two smaller, faster wrestlers, which Vince still doesn't exactly adore.
I hope he takes a shine to Cesaro, though. Dude might not be 300 pounds but he's strong as an ox, exactly what Vince loves. Plus of course, he's an awesome wrestler, unlike so many other strong guys Vince has pushed.

Apparently CHIKARA wrestler Jigsaw will be working the Impact show tonight, probably in a dark match;
TNA definitely needs more X-Division guys, and Jigsaw would be a good start. Just don't let him talk too much. Or take his mask off.

Full mask guys (not a Kane type mask, I mean Lucha masks) really shouldn't talk too much anyway, simply on account of it usually sounding like the Pyro.
On NXT again, I'm still shocked at how great the Bray Wyatt character is so far. I always thought Husky Harris was a pretty good big man wrestler, agile for his size like Vader or Bam Bam Bigelow, but I had no idea he had such great promos in him.
He's already got that elusive "hang onto every word he says" charisma/confidence that even some main eventers in the WWE don't have. Plus it's a more complex character than we usually get in WWE today, I really hope they don't neuter it for WWE TV. It might be too edgy for PG.

I welcome more X-Division type guys from the indies in TNA.
TNA has BADLY needed some fresh new blood in the X-Division for years now.
Hell, I would even love it if they brought back Sonjay Dutt, as he was better than alot of the recent X-Division additions that they've made.

I own a Shawn Michaels shirt, CM Punk Best in the World shirt (and I cut the stupid WWE tag off the front and would generally wear it with a jacket so the back was covered), a Kick Ass, Chew Bubblegum shirt from Barber Shop Window, and this Ultramantis Black shirt:
I've never worn the HBK one in public, used to wear the Punk one often enough, but the Mantis one is in my regular weekend/evening rotation. I've received quite a few compliments on the Ultramantis one, never on the Punk one.
If you asked me to put together a "best possible" roster of current WWE/FCW guys it would probably look very similar to NXT. Although Ambrose has been pretty conspicuous in his absence on the program (and even in the opening credits) are we sure that he's on it?
