Bobby Roode has been wasted in TNA for years. He deserves a decent shot, he is a good wrestler, has a great look and knows how to talk.

Make a brand split and put some of these guys on Smackdown!
 
Ok so my buddy and I were talking about Cena the other day and for some reason he asked which Cena was more enjoyable to watch.
SD Cena or Raw Cena. I gave him the Rock's huh look, but then I'm thinking Cena had some good moments while on SD.
 
LOL at this "Will They or Won't They Talk About It" AJ Styles segment during the Spring Break episode of The Edge and Christian Show.

Ouch at the "Shit WWE Fans Say" segment.

Jericho making Fall Brawl '98 worthwhile with Ralphus, his Spinal Tap schtick, the miserable pyro... excellent stuff all around.

Dinero is still there. And lol at King Mo.

So's Tenay (never used) and Borash, pretty sure commentators were all nixed to show just how dire the actual inring roster currently is

26 active male wrestlers. They could not even do a Rumble parody if they wanted to

Yeah they can. WWE has to find useless fillers for the remaining spots. It's doable.

True. Dinero's actually wrestled on some of the recent tapings, which says something. I wish he'd come back to the E a few years back; more than competent in the ring and on the mic.

eric young should have stayed with tna to the end

because that company pushed that turd low card comedy jobber no matter how fucking unbelieveable he was because he was 'with the company for a long time.'

eric young is the most 'gold star you tried' push in wrestling history. fuck that dude.

I'm surprised they've resisted the urge to have Rosemary thrown out of the ring through tables or doing thumbtack spots yet.

How can one man look so dreamy pre-lockup? From the same report

Andrade is adapting well to the WWE style, after seeing him a number of times since his arrival..

And if we needed anymore confirmation that Sami is 100% done with NXT after Takeover (with perhaps some a last shot during the tapings @ Mania)

Following the main event, Finn Balor paid tribute to Sami Zayn, disclosing that this was his last appearance in front of an NXT crowd in Florida
 
Before Russo, who was the head creative writer in wCw during the Nitro run?

Was it a combo of Eric, Hogan, and Nash? Dusty Rhodes?

I believe 97 to late 98 it was Sullivan, but when Raw started winning Eric gave Nash the book since he said he could write edgier programming. Also Hogan had his creative control and since Nash was friends with Hogan he basically got everything he wanted.

Shannon "The Cannon" Ritch (112 wins) vs Maverick Harvey (10-4-1, has TKO'd Ritch twice, CAN HE DO IT A THIRD TIME)

Bullshit. I was promised Roy Jones killing a fan in the ring, not a z-grade MMA geek with fans in the corners.

Okay, I forgot about Kevin Sullivan, thanks.

Want to know the saddest part about that?

Everything you said is true yet he was still the best person in the company at that time to get the title.

Commission found out about it and nixed it ASAP. UR wasn't pleased, but worked around it by having another fan contest, and relying on the fans to make sure Roy Jones Jr doesn't bleed out

This can still sweep the Carny Awards, have faith friend

Yeah, I ran out of steam here, but have some bonus content anyway, the alternative WM25 choice!

See who needs your Bret/Austin or your HBK/Taker when you have these?

Great list.

I would have given up my first newborn to watch Steamboat vs Jericho in their prime.

I wonder if my love of Kronik and Totally Buffed is more 'this is ridiculous i love it' thing or a 'well they're not the jung dragons, 3 count, filthy animals, natural born thrillerz, misfits in action, the dark circus, or the harris brothers' thing.
 
Wait, is Finn going to be on NXT for another entire year?

That title scene's fucking dire if he leaves

Only reason Bayley could leave is because Asuka can have great matches with everyone. Men's world title scene? It's just him and Nakamura as faces. Talk about 2006 Cena-dire a situation

I think it's dire with him there. I'd have much rather them given it to Joe and have Joe put a clinch on it, destroying debuting indie dudes until someone else could beat him.


Dude is the most vanilla face champion in years. No amount of dressing up for play pretend is going to fix that.
 
Going to evolve tonight

Card looks fun

Did you see the updated card since Bailey is out?

EVOLVE Championship Match: Timothy Thatcher (c) vs. Caleb Konley w/Andrea

EVOLVE Tag Team Championship Match: Drew Galloway & Johnny Gargano (c) vs. against Team Tremendous (Dan Barry & Bill Carr)

Zack Sabre Jr. vs. Drew Gulak

Do more people ask for a Finn heel turn or a Roman heel turn?

Man, I just want wrestling to be exactly how I want it to be all the time, so I'll take both turning heel thanks.

What do you think of the "Bullet/Balor Club debuts during New Day match at Mania" rumour?

Wait, is Finn going to be on NXT for another entire year?

I wouldn't be surprised tbh. He seems like Hunters boy to build the whole thing around.

BritGAFers, anyone else just as baffled as me by this Iain Duncan Smith face turn?

He's still a nasty cunt, it definitely has more to do with his stance on the Brexit than any poors he might have crushed underneath the jackboot of a Tory budget.

Fuck em all.

The main roster needs heels that are over like Joe way more than the main roster needs baby faces like Finn. Finn would pretty much doom Zayn to Ziggler status really quick given how much it's known VKM loves Finn and his merch sales.

I think Finn sticks around in NXT until SummerSlam. They really need someone who's worth having him out over on his way out.

I'm surprised they're letting Dlo and val tear it up to open the show. Very good match.
D'lo is one of the hidden gems of the Attitude Era. Val did serviceable work too, but there was a time where D'lo was over as anyone. Until Russo left and he dropped down the card.
