Why did Bret leave WWE again, because I know it wasn't for that Starcade 1997 bullshit. Hogan Vs. Sting was a shit match my god why have him pin legally just to reverse it WTF

A giant guaranteed paycheck.

Vince also gave him one...but then took it off the table when 1997 wasn't going that well.

I think it was sold to Bret as having him come down, stop a Montreal like screwjob, and put him in a program with Sting which would have been huge. He was also sold on the idea that he'd headline Thunder.

 

[Dante]

Wait.

So Wrestlemania travel customers have early access to the NXT show in San Jose the Friday before wrestlemania??? Seeing all sorts of posts on twitter of people who have tickets already. Goddamn man, if I miss this ill trade my wrestlemania tix for NXT tickets if anybody's interested.

 

[Serpentine]

ayy welcome back cure!

 

[BoboBrazil]

Why is WWE trying to get the crowd to chant turd at Daniel Bryan?

 

[sf2fanatic]

Cure's back? Time for his push

 

[dr3upmushroom]

Why is WWE trying to get the crowd to chant turd at Daniel Bryan?

To make Roman look strong.

 

[ShadowsFell]

I was at Wrestlemania 19 live, and it was fantastic. I permanently have a mental video clip in my mind of Brock botching the shooting star press.

Why is WWE trying to get the crowd to chant turd at Daniel Bryan?

Who didn't love Owen's "Nugget" chant?

This guy loved it!

So we must all now chant "Turd" at D.Brine because he's a vegan bearded loser who will never amount to anything.

Miz is better than Cena at playing an actual person, but isn't as convincing as a badass marine who is too strong for his own good. I imagine both are better than Ted Jr though

 

[dr3upmushroom]

 

[Striker]

Wasn't that when Owen came back as the Black Hart?

Shame that never went anywhere. He just jobbed to big nose and cokehead Shawn and eventually just joined up with the Nation.

Hey don't knock Ted Jr... Virgil got more work because of him.

Then there was the angle where he tried making R-Truth his Virgil.

WWE gonna WWE.

Lots of things have changed while you were away, friend. The biggest of all being that I'm making the April thread, and it's gonna be centered around WWE's illustrious The Marine franchise, just in time for the release of Marine 4: Moving Target. So you're going to have to wait in line, pal

I forgot that there was a Marine 4 D:

 

[Hasney]

The Marine should just turn into a Police Academy extension now. I can't wait for Mission to Moscow

 

[Serpentine]

Don't worry, I will be retaining some aspects of your idea! Cuz Summer Rae is in M4

shit, twice in one night...

 

[dr3upmushroom]

Looked up some stuff on Virgil, found these stories about encounters with him.

http://deadspin.com/5915910/our-readers-run-ins-with-virgil-pro-wrestlings-saddest-man

&#8220;I totally get it,&#8221; he says. &#8220;I don&#8217;t necessarily spend my time watching programs that 6- to 10-year-old kids enjoy, so I get the need for different racy comedy and story lines. But at the same time I don&#8217;t want to offend anyone in our audience so I do what I do to the best of my ability, and I actually really enjoy being able to be a real-life superhero and an aspirational character both in live entertainment and animation films like Flintstones.&#8221;

Can you guess who said it?

 

[Paracelsus]

-^ Cena is so turning heel.

 

[Alucard]

Cure's back and wants to centre the April thread around women's wrestling?

Welcome back.

 

[Alucard]

Aerostar is the real deal. When it comes to dives, he might be the most fearless luchador out there today. Definitely one of the most unique.

 

[Alucard]

Watching Impact for the first time in 2 months or so. I dig the ramp entrance setup in London.

 

[British Monsoon]

Aerostar is the real deal. When it comes to dives, he might be the most fearless luchador out there today. Definitely one of the most unique.

He's super impressive, love his trust fall dive to the floor. And to think some crazy fuck's booked Aerostar vs Andrew Everett vs Jack Evans for Mania weekend. Goddamn, that's going to be ridiculous.

 

[Fox318]

 

[Alucard]

Been a while since I've enjoyed the finish to a last man standing match.

Pretty good opener.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Been a while since I've enjoyed the finish to a last man standing match.

Because most LMS matches nowadays are Cena matches and they almost always end with fuckery.

 

[Alucard]

TNA acknowledging real life relationships in their locker room.

Magnus won?

 

[Alucard]

Drew Galloway worked shooting on "standing up for professional wrestling" is kind of blah. He at least seems comfortable on the mic.

 

[Alucard]

I belee dat.

 

[Fox318]

Aerostar is the real deal. When it comes to dives, he might be the most fearless luchador out there today. Definitely one of the most unique.

He looks like somebody Just unplugged him in mid air

 

[Alucard]

Bram made Magnus kiss his boot so that Bram would release Mickie James. Okay angle.

 

[Alucard]

Good morning.

Also, Robbie E treating this with the seriousness of a boxer is pretty funny.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Oh hey look; a shirt all the UK Fans will buy!

 

[Alucard]

That damn play symbol. I'm guessing they'll do the same thing with a football jersey next year in Dallas.

 

[British Monsoon]

That's fucking horrid. I'm amazed at WWE's inability to produce a shirt I'd actually wear - if they stopped printing dumb shit on the back, that'd be a start.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Why the fuck DO you guys get so bent out of shape about WWE printing stuff on the backs of their shirts?

 

[Alucard]

Man, Spud really did get busted open good in this match.

Not a great technical match, but a good storyline match. Especially with the post-match fakeout by EC3. Putting this on my list of faves for 2015 for the whole angle.

 

[British Monsoon]

PCW people, did they really have Mastiff/Sha go to a double count-out? That was one of the matches I was most looking forward to, not surprised the crowd turned on the finish.

Shows like tonight don't appeal too much there is so much talent around yet he's using the likes of Ricardo, Carlito; Eugene and Matt hardy and having fucking musical chair competitions!

My mate who I usually go with went and got a booth said it was terrible apart from the amazing Osprey match.

As long as it's working for PCW it's hard to argue with, but I agree with you - no interest in seeing WWE cast-offs when the UK scene is fucking HEAVING with top-quality talent. I much prefer RevPro's approach, where the imports are mostly guys who can go and provide proper 'dream matches' with the top UK guys. It draws, as well - guarantee RevPro are going to have 1,000+ fans packed in to York Hall for Nakamura, Ishii & Styles this summer.

Why the fuck DO you guys get so bent out of shape about WWE printing stuff on the backs of their shirts?

I'm not complaining, by printing dumb shit on the back of their shirts they're actually saving me money, because I can't recall the number of times I've seen a shirt that looked remotely wearable only to discover that it's got some super, super, super fucking dumb phrase printed on the back.

But every single shirt would be 1000000000000% better if the image on the front was on the back, and the front was blank. Big bullshit on the front of a shirt says "come talk to me about whatever is on my shirt" and do you really want to talk to... wrestling fans? ugh

Also, women's wrassle thread yes, Bull Nakano or no sale.
