I want to say Roman is going to beat Brock, but now with Brock resigning... I have no clue. I guess Brock wins?

Anyway, re watching Macho Man vs Steamboat. Probably my favorite Wrestlemania match.

I went back and forth on the diva match as well as Brock/Roman. There's a reason I went with Roman - Brock announcing that he's staying with WWE swung all of the odds in Brocks favor, which is probably the exact thing Vince wants in order to MAKE ROMAN LOOK STRONG

Exactly.

I dont see a outcome of that match that doesnt end with Roman with the belt. At least now they have the illusion of the chance of a different outcome though.

They have pushed Reigns so far. They will give him a go with the belt for a few months if people like it or not.

Ken Shamrock, gimmick infringing, tipping off the Universe? You decide.

That Sling app is all sorts of broken.

It says I can watch past Lucha Underground shows, but when I click on them all I get is old school dubbed chinese martial arts movies.

Has anyone yet predicted a total bullshit Summerslam '93-esque finish for Brock/Reigns?

It would oddly be fitting for the Roman Empire to ape the Lex Express.

I don't think you can watch past ones. I was able to rewind a current episode as it was on. It's meant to function like live TV with a little extra control.

Catch it live tonight my man. I know I will.

Everytime I try to watch Lucha Underground I scratch my head trying to figure out is this promotion legit, when this promotion going to tour if it's legit, or is it a damn promotion? I get ultra WMAC Masters vibes from the show :(.

They usually pull Lucha Underground on the day of the new episode so that you watch the re-airings and new episode on the network.

Meh. It all depends on how far Vince is thinking. If Rock vs Brock is happening Brock won't lose.

You can say..well, what was the point to push Roman? Simple.

To make you believe he could beat Brock! That's the whole point of the fucking match.

Funny enough though he's gonna be fine. Kimbo's no spring chicken. And has a drop of talent compared to Shamrock, God of Gods.

It's AAA's US promotion.

Think TNA doing Ring ka King in India.

People joke about it but others don't see it's a joke, and it's problematic all 'round. I hope nobody does either, and a friend of mine's daughter is 13 and cuts, and it bothers me a lot because I don't know how to tell her to STOPPPPPPPPPPPPPP DOINGGGGGGGGGG THATTTTTTTTTTTTT.

I just went into the tag and yeah it seems like an idiotic internet troll stunt, mostly (there are pictures of decapited people in that tag for example) There are at least some tweets saying how disgusting this tag is at least.

I do hope your friend's daughter gets healthier mentally and stops cutting herself.

Well the site said there was gonna be Lucha Underground repeats on Monday. But when I tuned in there was nothing.

Broken ass network.

Yep. Vince basically pushed all in with Roman after having Rock come out to raise his hand (and deflect heat) and then had Roman go over Bryan clean and followed that up with Bryan endorsing Roman. I'll be legit shook if Vince backs off.

Yeah the guide is super weird sometimes. It's gotten a lot better but it used to be if they didn't have program information for a block of time it would just show one thing playing forever. If you can watch today they should be marathoning 3 to 4 episodes before the new one tonight then replaying 2 or 3 episodes until the rebroadcast for the west coast.

If it was Bryan facing Brock instead of Reigns do you think we would have a split crowd? I don't think Bryan would get booed but there would definitely be some audible Lesnar chants

Looks like I'm posting Femmezuigiri content every day as long as they keep doing dope shit every day. Today's focus is Bull Nakano.

http://femmezuigiri.tumblr.com/post/114591825697/whos-that-girl-bull-nakano

tumblr_inline_nls297D8YI1qio73x_500.jpg


“What’s even more impressive is Bull’s ability to be perceived as a tough, unbreakable monster even when she loses a match.”

Here we have a woman who was as stylish in the ring as she was tough. With hair that stands almost as tall as I am, that also barely moves, and the most electifying shade of blue lipstick that would make David Bowie proud, she brought a unique and terrifying brand of beauty to women’s pro wrestling. Bull Nakano started wrestling in AJW at the age of 15, and over time has competed in multiple promotions including CMLL, WWF and WCW. Winning her first title Bull was a trailblazer of sorts, and was CMLL’s first ever World Women’s Champion. Her strongest matches were primarily tag matches alongside Dump Matsumoto, and she has held the WWWA World Tag Team Championship on three separate occassions.

This isn’t to say that she’s not a raging monster in the ring when she’s by herself. When she regained the WWWA World Heavyweight Championship title in a Japan Grand Prix tournament, she remained the title holder for just shy of three consecutive years before dropping the belt to Aja Kong.

Nah I see the support. You, Dream, and a couple others. You hated his short especially because he felt the need to use strippers.

I'm always seein' you Carnby. And I appreciate it.
Click to expand...

Pretty disgusting insinuation that these women are strippers simply because they dressed up in some skimpy outfits. I think I'm starting to see the real reason for the hatred here.

I didn't know for sure, assumed Carnby's sources check out. I don't know the name of a single porn star, much less strippers. Pepsi City turned me on to free-range porn with people who are actually not a product of abuse, and I haven't looked back since, no matter how many people tell me this "Gianna Michaels" girl is good shit.

If it's on Xbox, it's on sale! You are absolved!

I've been tempted because weirdly, I'm a sucker for attires - even less important attires. The idea of there being alts for the Usos is weirdly appealing.

Shouldn't you support those products of abuse by buying and watching their videos? Instead of the amateur shit pepsi city watches which is probably full of rich spoiled kids who do it for funsies? They're the Max Landis of porn.

It's a cycle that lasts in perpetuity unless someone takes a figurative L, and I thought that'd be me. I've turned my back on abuse porn, even if it's just behind the scenes.

Funny how customer service works sometimes.

Ordered two shirts from WWEShop.com last Tuesday.

Kevin Owens shirt arrived Friday, Brock Lesnar shirt hadn't even shipped yet.

I sent them an e-mail over the weekend asking about canceling the Lesnar shirt because I wanted it to wear to a Mania party and feared I wouldn't get it.

Lesnar shirt ships out Monday with super fast shipping and arrives today.

I'm more interested in the psychology behind why they (not Brock, they, the WWE) decided to announce this on ESPN before the match.

The affect this had is clear, in that everyone believes Brock is a shoe-in. Offshore odds switched to Brock as a favorite within an hour of announcing. But why do it?

Don't trust this new age of carny, that's all I'm saying.

I figured they did it to try and up buyrates on WM
