I'm just wondering why a pretty girl like Summer Rae would grope Daniel Bryan's pectoral muscle. Plus he gets a lot of screen time on Total Divas.

DAT GROOMING TO BE THE TOP FACE OF THE COMPANY....without any actual grooming of any of his facial hair. Or hair for that matter.

I legit know people that are genuinely like that without being flirty. Or maybe I'm just oblivious. I dunno, Summer has all my sympathy points in this fake reality show. Natalya can fuck a tree for all I care.

And yes, Paige and Renee. Yes. Just yes.

NEW PAIGE

 

[Spider from Mars]

He controls stadium lighting with demonic powers, dude. I wouldn't fuck with him either.

Anybody who is friends with Doug in production is a man to be feared. If they wanted to make Brock look like a threat, beating up jobber Mark Henry once, having his voice break like a teenager and not once getting the best of Taker in the entire build was the way to do it.

 

[Lambda Pie]

That looked like a pretty shitty takedown attempt. Looked like he was just going to go in side ways and not even get anything to begin with. He's leaning into that knee. Shit's a work, brah.

Why did that asian fellow Miz himself?

it's Imanari. everything he does is... weird and odd. but works. sometimes.

yes, he broke the other guy's leg.

But he also beat up the Big Show, who came back 2 weeks later with Betty White and was just fine.

Are Taker and Lesnar booked for tonight? If Lesnar doesn't leave Take lying in the ring after 3 or 4 F5's, with backstage hands surrounding him looking legit concerned, I'll be left sorely disappointed with the build-up of their match. Well, disappointed at the physical element anyway. At the moment it's looking so clear cut for Taker to win, Lesnar hasn't really got a shot in (yet)...

Wrestling logic would indicate that Lesnar is totally winning at WM

Spoiler

lol

Seriously they aren't even bothering to try to make Lesnar look like a legitimate threat which is disappointing because hes Brock fucking Lesnar.

 

[Macho Madness]

I think their idea with Brock/Taker is that they feel the audience feels Brock has the advantage because he's much younger, bigger, and tougher than the Undertaker. But it's like they forgot Taker has the whole 21-0 thing going for him that makes anything Brock has done look like nothing.

 

[Aiii]

Women dig beards, certain gay men absolutely worship them.

Get a beard no matter who you're interested in, it'll do you wonders.

Their build has been nothing short of stupid. Lesnar just legit shook everytime Taker shows up, Taker beating on Lesnar. Why does this match matter.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

Lesnar and Taker are gonna have an arm-wrestling contest in which Taker wins but then Bork gets angry and hits him with a chair for 20 minutes and scream incessantly. Basically his entire post-UFC career.

 

[Lambda Pie]

Brock beat Min-Soo Kim, korean legend. Mark got nothing.

look at the striations:

His torso looks like the okay meme face.

 

[Kaladin]

All Mark has to do is watch Brock's UFC debut vs Frank Mir and he'll be fine.

 

[Liquidsnake]

Why hasn't Cena helped Daniel just once?

What kind of a friend is he?

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

Or be like Triple H and hit him straight into the diverculitis in Summerslam.

"Ouch, my diverculitis"

 

[Heel]

There's basically nothing they could have done to convince me that Undertaker is going to end the streak with Brock. I do look forward to some mixed martial inspired ring work, though. Undertakers submission grappling is very high-tier. Watch your neck, Bork.

Are they going to bring in Vince Lucero to give Batista some credibility too?

look at that hoss that Batista did battle with to keep his MMA record perfect.

I hope WWE r gets big john to Ref the taker match

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

AN EXTENDED SABATI-WHAT?!

 

[strobogo]

Batista is such a bitch. You know he wouldn't have accepted a fight against someone in shape and with a winning record. And he still almost lost and barely made it through the fight. I also think it's weird how he talks like he's some kind of seasoned vet with all this ring knowledge.

Fighting enhancement talent in your mixed martial debut is very normal. I'd say it was pretty daring of Dave Bautista to fight a late replacement with so many fights under his gut.

I Skype'd my 52yr old Dad last night who told me he's become a Bo-liever!

Lucero was in shape. a round shape but a shape nonetheless.

Yep, dude has had 22 fights since 2005, winning 4 and one draw. If you are going to use enhancement talent, at least feed Dave a paper tiger. Dude looked like a slob and almost won.

Paul Roma, Jim Powers and Mike Sharpe at least looked tough before getting their asses beat.

 

[JavyOO7]

I still like when the NXT crowd was chanting "boring" and Bo goes "Yeah, its Bo's ring!" ... that was great.

 

[HOMEBOY OVER HERE]

austin vs undertaker @ summerslam 1998.

god wrestling used to be far more reckless.

I also like how the camera men used to get closer to the action. they're using all sorts of crazy zoom lenses now.

 

[XenoRaven]

Lucero was in shape. a round shape but a shape nonetheless.

I'd say it's closer to a pear shape.

Like a flesh-colored Grimace.

The original jobber was very athletic. Pulled out a few days before the fight.

They probably panicked and pulled Big Body Lucero off a bar stool.

Emphasis on the zoom. In and out, in and out. I can't even enjoy the Cesaro Swing that you all love so much because it makes me nauseated. I hate a lot of the camera work these days.

i'm gonna start reviewing MMA and kickboxing only on Legit Shook, no more shoot-style wrestling.

first events up gonna be:

I hate WWE's camera work too. Way too many zooms and camera cuts.

 

[Spider from Mars]

wrestling fans
maybe they are just counting seconds instead of rotations? His 100 rotation swing in Chikara was more like 70.

 

[bean breath]

Maybe the next time they do Raw Roulette in Vegas it'll just be Cesaro swinging Santino in the middle of a Wheel of Fortune style mat.

 

[BHZ Mayor]

So is pre-NFL Brock Lesnar non-canon or something? I know it was over a decade ago, but they could have somehow used the fact that Taker never beat Lesnar one-on-one as part of the build. Would've been better than what we currently have.
