"Full of majesty"

"exhilarating"
"scary"
I can go on if you need more
Oh you two. Nice try!
Ascension A+ players. Future main eventers.
Conor has TONS of experience
That's a negative when he still looks like he has no idea what he's doing in the ring.
This is what both of the Ascension guys tell the NXT booker every week before he sighs and gives them a two-minute squash match to be sure they don't fuck everything up.

Can't agree, he's got it all set. It's magic when they work.
Let them cast a spell on you.

Weren't you complaining about cartoony 80s gimmicks 20 minutes ago?
Total Divas season 4 will push her to the moon, friend. This I'm sure of.
You're more wrong about the Ascension than you are about Bateaster in 2014.

Yeah, but I feel like today's crop of lady wrestlers require cartoony 80s-style gimmicks because none of them actually have any personality to distinguish themselves otherwise.

More?
I know I'm fighting a losing fight with Baptista, but I still have faith that I'll hit that 20% possibility he'll return to being fantastic. I'm betting against the odds, and it's a foolish bet, but I don't betray Big Dave.
Ascension on the other hand, well, I'll just watch it go. I have more faith in them.
There's truth to this, but it's also kind of why some of those NXT dudes have the gimmicks they have.

Tyler Breeze is ready for the main roster too. Gimmick and talent are on point.

I'd just like to point out that WrestleGAF posts more fanart in one thread than SonicGAF has in 3 threads.
Ascension is like TWO 2014 Bateaster Bunny Bombs teaming together. They are garbage.
A few favorite wrestlingisms: All chairs are STEEL chairs, even when molded plastic or massively padded. All chair shots are to the BACK OF THE HEAD, even when it was clearly in the shoulder blades or lower.

Hopefully you can see their current entrance, they have physical charisma.
Headbangers were so horrible. Just gross dudes wearing things that managed to make them look even more gross. Remember those Madonna bras they wore? Fucking why?

that's actually a nice drawing. had no idea you could draw like that, Beef.
That just means you haven't seen enough of them.
I'd wager that even if it turns out they are crap in the ring, they have enough charisma to make the current tag team division more entertaining. Think of The Ascension vs Ryback and his friend where they try to outsquash each other until Ryback's friend gets injuried and he starts to pair with Rusev.
Now we have 4 dudes in the ring just being strong.

ascension are average at best
One summer my friends and I did the whole backyard trampoline wrestling thing and we covered pizza boxes in duct tape and called them steel pizza boxes.
We got so many chicks. >_>
And I've seen the Ascension once. Unimpressed.
I've been seeing the exact same squash match from them against jobbers for about 8 months.

What was the post about?
HHH is great on the after show stuff. He's in the ring with Kane/Rock/Taker and is trying to apologize for all the bad things he's done to them. Then he apologizes to the jackoff fans. And one in particular jackoff who thinks he's cool because he wears his hat backwards like HHH's. And he's sorry for his girlfriend 'cuz she's got no boobs.
And then he tells the fans this is a SHOOT that he's trying to apologize here and tells the fans to shut up because they are confusing the Rock.
OH SHIT it's from the same thing Soul just had gifs of. Taker saying POONTANG in the Undertaker voice was great.

I just wanna chime in and say I would be ALL OVER a Tuesday Night Titans reboot. But they gotta air the old ones too. Vince hosting was like watching a college freshmen doing their video production final. It was great.

What are they supposed to be? Vampires? Metal fans? They look stupid, grunt and have a poor high low substitute as a finisher. Am I supposed to be impressed when they vibrate and roar and then barely beat a massively over the hill 2 Cool or squash jobbers?
cowboy justice moderating of a bigot.
BECAUSE THEY WERE PUNKS, VINCE.

I just have to say that I'm watching Goldust vs Crush at KOTR 1997 and that 16 years later he looks younger and fitter blows me away. That DDP yoga is magic.

Vampires are never cool outside their 18th romantic origins when they were about people who died as virgins coming back to fulfill that need in the afterlife, so that can't be it.
They are kind of lame-ish like Metal fans, but not so lame that you would see them at an actual show marking out to grown dudes screaming about dragons.
So I guess that's it, they are big dudes, who grunt, squash jobbers with a high low finisher and then act as if they just did something awesome. Which is cool.

Vince. Wrestlemania XI had a major production botch where they cut to "Pamela Anderson" but it ended up not being her, and the audio wasn't working. They then cut back to the arena and Jerry makes a joke about it not being Pam. Vince goes "AH HAHAHAHAHAHA" and you could just tell he wanted to fucking punch Lawler so goddamn hard.

Their high low finisher is poor compared to others though. The best high lows send people spiraling through the air,
This LOD and Sycho Sid promo is hilarious. It's like they are trying to out yell each other. I love Sid and I'm not even joking.
See? That moment in the gif is amazing. Sid is gold.

What happened to the Botchamania site?
So I started watching Starcade '83 on the network and man I think I'm too young to appreciate older wrestling. I'd ike to see all the old PPVs in order to get my wrestling history fix but it's all pretty bad. Currently watching Starcade '84 and Ricky Steamboat is neat. I also have always loved the way Dusty talks. Overall the wrestling is not entertaining and everyone just looks hocky except Flair which is timeless.
His old host, HostGator, sucked. It went down for a while so he decided to switch to another host.
As it turns out the new host is owned by the same people as HostGator. Oops.
