Blue got gazumped

I LOVE IT MAGGLE

I hope the same happens for, at least, the next 12 community threads.

Another fun as hell night at EVE. Buy some EVE DVD's, they're a good promotion doing important stuff and more eyes should be on them. Their last pair of shows with Meiko Satomura on were great fun live, as were tonights. Unfortunately they're not getting a VOD, so DVD's it is.

Also Aja Kong is coming, so that should be fun.

 

[Bronx-Man]

I'm sorry, blue

but the community has declared a vote of no confidence on your job

 

[Zach]

Bluekaveli's new job is to do the job for serenewarfare.

June is the month of Ultraviolence...

OMG.

 

[Caderfix]

OMG.

It was not a botch, believe it or not. Now if that makes it better or worse is up to you.

Was Russo behind this?

It makes it worse.

lmao

 

[HashtagLapsed]

I'm going to give Backlash a chance but I have very low expectations.

I'll watch Twin Peaks tonight. My friend is coming around for dinner and drinks and she is a huge fan too. Hopefully it is good. Im excited as fuck.

 

[Syder]

I kinda feel like Backlash is unmissable just because of the possibility of Nakamura losing/Mahal winning the WWE title...

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Was Russo behind this?

Nope! He was fired the month before, yet his Impact was still felt

 

[Caderfix]

Was Russo behind this?

I think so, yeah.

Edit: Sweeney Tom knows best.

I thought it happened before 2012.

 

[Pikma]

Kamen has that and a ton more of his matches uploaded to youtube. Here's a link;

Thanks man

 

[excelsiorlef]

I'm also guessing they're going to give Roddy a title shot at Brooklyn which he won't win because they probably want (or should want) Black to take the title off Roode.

Drew MacIntyre is next in line and likely the one to dethrone Roode imo

 

[HashtagLapsed]

If WWE buys AJPW, I wonder how much of their back catalogue they would get. I wonder how autonomously they would let them operate.

 

[Syder]

I see what you did there.

Wow. I guess they deiced to pull a Russo without a Russo.

 

[Professor Beef]

SLAM ME BOSS

This was Big Show's idea because he wanted to put over Jinder. Big Show respects the Maharajah, why can't you?

[ShadowSwordmaster]

He is the chosen one.

 

[Brian_FETO]

I wonder if they just don't even bother having Black in the title picture

Dude is ready

The only reason not to bring him up right now is because of Balor

 

[Foggy]

Hard to say, but I think the audience that they have would jump ship very quickly. Regardless, I don't think they'd send Regal for that. It might just be to scout Zeus and Miyahara for their regional NXT nonsense they've flirted with.

Even for the back catalogue I'd be shocked if they put something up on the network without subs.

 

[RecRoulette]

It was not a botch, believe it or not. Now if that makes it better or worse is up to you.

Wait what!? That makes it way worse!

 

[Bronx-Man]

When's the last time we had a face vs face match for the NXT title?

 

[serenewarfare]

When's the last time we had a face vs face match for the NXT title?

Balor vs. Crews

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Finn Balor vs Nakamura?

 

[serenewarfare]

Finn Balor vs Nakamura?

Wasn't for the title. Joe had already won it. Great match though.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

I thought it was for the title? I guess I remembered it wrong.

 

[Syder]

Finn Balor vs Nakamura?

Balor had already lost it at that point.

The last time Face v Face was the main event must have been TakeOver: R Evolution, right?

 

[Hasney]

Both of those seem like terrible TV for me

I think you are right.

 

[Hasney]

Such a great main event too with Neville teasing going heel the whole feud and still trying to find shortcuts, but never turning. Just so well executed.

 

[Rimfya]

Mauro can't escape the carney... if follows him into boxing

Let's all come to Blue's defense.

 

[Nocturnowl]

The golden era of NXT
....and the Ascension

That main event was one of those near picture perfect matches where everything came together wonderfully, still the NXT match to beat if I put aside my love for Bayley/Banks.

 

[Zach]

flairturnsonstingagain.gif is never not appropriate.

 

[RecRoulette]

Let's all come to Blue's defense.

This was my favorite moment of that show.

 

[31GhostsIV]

Guys, got my fizzy pop and salty snacks, ready to stay up late and watch Nak have an epic match with Dol.... hahaha, fuck that. I'm going to bed now so I can get up early to watch Twin Peaks.

 

[Guzim]

I wouldn't say Neville was a face there.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Pardon? Are you being fancied to another nice arse whipping?

Ass to my knee, don't get these paws

Yeah I think you are probably right. Its hard to see them just outright buying them. 9n the other hand it is even a bit hard to see them going after guys like Miyahara for their own product. I guess we'll see.

 

[British Monsoon]

If WWE buys AJPW, I wonder how much of their back catalogue they would get. I wonder how autonomously they would let them operate.

Pretty much none of it. AJPW isn't even technically the same company anymore and the pre-2012 footage rights are completely up in the air, most likely owned primarily by NTV and in part by batshit insane former owner Shiraishi.

I didn't watch the whole thing i just skipped to the end.

1. NXT Champion Bobby Roode looks like a jackass

2. lmao Sting, for "not noticing the chair" and being an idiot who would agree to that spot.

 

[somedevil]

From Christian and Edge podcast. A horrible idea pitched to Christian by a writer:

The Rock had been going off doing movies and stuff like that, so he was taking extended periods of time off. … I had a one-on-one meeting backstage with the Rock and he kind of anointed me his favorite wrestler and was trying to pump me up, but unbeknownst to me, he was trying to get me to take a bullet for him with Goldberg. That was the backstory. So when he wasn’t there I was doing my talking as “The Rock’s Favorite Wrestler” and I took upon myself to do the Rock’s work for him. So, one day I get home, and I get this call [from someone in WWE creative]. They’re like ‘Hey, they kinda want you to do this thing where you think you become The Rock. We want you to do the eyebrow thing, cut your hair real short, and, you know, the Rock wears black, so you’ll where white and you’re gonna use all his catchphrases and you’re gonna act like The Rock and pretend you’re The Rock and you’re gonna be The Rock. But we’re not gonna call you The Rock.’ They were gonna call me, are you ready or this, wait for it … wait for it … ‘The Lock’. Because anytime I went to the ring, it was a lock I was going to win.”

Vince turned this idea down because he thought it was stupid.

I thought the story was Vince thought it was the best on the plane, but once the wine wore off he hated it

Make sense you have to be drunk to live the idea.

Here it seems to be the only Ohno vs Itami match. It happened in 2011

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3oSg4hnkIY

I see that ending to the match being repeated.
