Indeed, but that's the great thing about Jimmy - he's always had a good point and I've always been able to see his side of things, it's just the way he's gone about it that makes him a cunt.

Ah. Everything I know about Progress I've gleaned from looking at this thread, and I missed that it was a nickname for him.

I'd like to see both awards exist.
Xism and Cism all in one. No STB-tier stuff though. But still not good.
Also I liked RAW quite a bit last night. It was a weird show in many ways, but very watchable. Some of you just need to lighten up a bit I think. (Shit is that racist?)
I'm conflicted about R-Truth. On one hand, he is a minstrel show. On the other hand, he's hilarious on commentary.

I hope Nick Patrick is ref for HHH vs Sting.
They wrestle like it's the middle of a commercial break.
only if Brad Maddox comes out as the second ref.
Hmmmmmm

I have the Nakamura/Marufuji match from last week's NJPW on AXS to finish. Yujiro vs. Naito was okay, though it was chopped up for time.The match itself didn't feel like the grudge match that it probably should be. I appreciated that Ranallo and Barnett are able to carry the story from the previous week's episode, which featured Naito vs. Tanahashi and showed Tanahashi working over Naito's knee, into the Yujiro vs. Naito match. I understand why NJPW on AXS has clipped matches, but they aren't the best content on the show.
That said, Naito is a whiny one, isn't he?
I still need to watch the New Japan Cup first and second rounds from last week. There's just no time.
In the spirit of last night's shameful posting, let us revisit Nakamura's question: "who is whiter, Yano or Shiozaki?" I'm assuming that Nakamura's asking who is paler, but I don't think of Shiozaki as Sheamus-levels of pale.

They are giving time to build up every match at mania. Doing it to good effect is a whole other story, but they are doing it.

God, I thought we were rid of Sopranos references.
"The Cunt" isn't an actual nickname he uses, everyone just thinks he's a cunt.
So I went and looked it up
Last time the US title was defended and changed hands at Wrestlemania was 22, when JBL won it from Chris Benoit.
The last time the US title was in a Wrestlemania was WM 23, when Benoit wrestled MVP for the title and retained.
It has not made an appearance since then. The closest it got was the pointless pre-WM27 dark match between Sheamus and Bryan.

I know he doesn't go by the name lol...it's just funny he's being called "the cunt".

Pretty cool how Rusev has been able to elevate that title.

Quite the knockoff Bullet Club shirt:
He hasn't elevated it. As soon as it's off him, it'll go back to the drudges. It's the same thing as the IC title in NJPW. The title isn't over with the person holding it. The person holding it is over and the title is just related to it. You need a large division of competition to elevate a title.

They'll give the assignment to Charles Robinson
Are they finally going with the "Authority is sick of part timer holding title hostage so they're going to try and screw him out of it story"? Because that's what I expected they would do to get the title off of Brock but no one in here was talking about it and I didn't see anything about it in the short 2-6 minute RAW clips on WWE.com, which is how I keep up with the product now. It's a story that pretty much writes itself. People want to cheer for Brock anyway.

Meltzer burying the fuck out of WWE for being racist to their core, with last night's treatment of Black characters as his proof.
"Bu-but! They got rid of DeMott! Everything is good now!"
Also, Meltzer was told straight up that the Sting voice thing was suppose to be "Black Scorpion Sting"
Yes, the Sting that wasn't Sting was Sting.

People are saying it is Dolph. The LAW altered the pitch and it sounds like Ziggler.
Where is this?
Meltzer was told it was Sting's voice, but altered as a reference to Black Scorpion. Which makes NO GOD DAMN SENSE.
This is on Observer Radio, Penguin.

First minute you'll hear the altered Sting voice. I.e Dolph Ziggler.

So they just dropped the Goldust/Stardust feud? And no one on one match between Miz and Mizdow at WM?

It seems like Vince just fucking gave up. This has been the worst build up to a WrestleMania I've ever personally witnessed

The title isn't over in the sense that it'd make someone's career by winning it, but that's the goal - if whoever takes the IC belt from Nakamura can do the job he does, main eventing shows and drawing fans to the secondary PPVs, then they'll at least be on their way to the belt being properly over. I think Ibushi could do it, possibly Naito as well.
holy shit
Other than Heyman's shit about Samoans, what happened?

How they've missed so many opportunities to have anything interesting at Mania is beyond me.So they just dropped the Goldust/Stardust feud? And no one on one match between Miz and Mizdow at WM?
The worst thing about this Mania... so far
It doesn't have that one match that you can at least hope will tear the house down.
I'm sure the IC Ladder match will be fine, but not what want.
I mean Reigns/Lesnar? Rusev/Cena? Sting/HHH? Bellas/AJ/Paige? Orton and Rollins could be the MoTN

It feels like they turned it up lately though. Doesn't remember names, his vocabulary has regressed, he's doing even more Looney Tunes shit.
And I'm talking about a man who was talking to an invisible boy for several years!
Fuck this company.

Still thinking they gonna have the Cena/ Rusev match a submission only.
Black Scorpion was a mysterious wrestler Sting feuded with in early WCW. Problem was nobody in charge had figured out who Scorpion was supposed to be. Their first choice was an obscure wrestler Sting teamed with early in his career (no, not Ultimate Warrior) but that was rejected because nobody would have known who he was. They finally decided it would be Ric Flair.
So they just dropped the Goldust/Stardust feud? And no one on one match between Miz and Mizdow at WM?
why have two matches that'll help out the Mania card when you can just have random matches no one actually asked for....

What about "I'm a GOOOOODDD R-Truth?"
It only feels worse because he's been more visible lately. I have no idea how they concluded that pushing this version (or really, any version, given how tainted the character's history is) of R-Truth around WrestleMania season was a good idea.
