What is up with all the Berlin avatars? lol


*sorry BERLYN

 

[Jimmy King]

Here's a hot take. And it involves two wrestlers that aren't my faves.


Undertaker vs Jeff Hardy is probably as good as Austin vs Bret. And they have the same result.

that is pretty scorching

but the edge has to go to the match that made the top dog of the top era

what are some other matches like that and how would you rank them, WrassleGAF?

all I can think of are Foley ones at the moment

 

[Alucard]

Everyone knows Creed is the perfect band.

When dreaming, I'm guided to another place. Time and time agaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeain.

I don't know, but its cool

 

[Sephzilla]

Avatar Royal Rumble happened. 30 entrants, 30 possible avatars! We could have had awesome avatars like law enforcing ally to WWE Hall of Famer Sting - RoboCop, but no. Now we're stuck with this.

*sorry BERLYN

We made a poor choice.

 

[Zach]

It's like Crunchyroll but for ducks

What will they think of next?

 

[Alucard]

At sunrise, I fight to stay asleep 'cause I don't wanna leave the comfort ooooo-o-of this place.

 

[slightconfuse]

New GM?

 

[Alucard]

Dario is the best in the world at what he does. No contest.

 

[Kurita]

Never!



Is that a moderator or...?

Yeah, duckroll is mainly in manga/anime threads though

[Colocho]

So I just heard about Smackdown going live which is pretty cool, but is the brand split confirmed or just speculation at this point?

 

[Bubba T]

Limp Bizkit is forever trash and that Austin/Rock "My Way" video package thing you guys are always circle-jerking all over is forever trash as well due to this.

You're on punishment.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Triple H isn't a McMahon.

He is. Stephanie

Spoiler

wears the pants.

 

[klonere]

I can't believe you guys no sold my Berlin Wall brand split joke

feck ye's

Confirmed. Most of this is

 

[Jimmy King]

You guys were joking before but someone with a "source" says D-Bry will be Smackdown GM.

What a waste. Put him on commentary or make him an agent and get rid of authority figures forever. Forever. FOREVER.

 

[pantsattack]

Bauer & Pollock liking their Friday showtime! Ha!

 

[Alucard]

I can't believe you guys no sold my Berlin Wall brand split joke

We're too concerned about trying to get ourselves over.

 

[Ravensmash]

Definitely no.

Authority figures forever.

The smartest thing WWE could do is make Bryan a heel GM.

I'd love to see him in that role.

 

[Jimmy King]

Christian on Table for 3 said Vince told him forgetting lines as a babyface is the kiss of death.

Definitely no.

Authority figures forever.

The smartest thing WWE could do is make Bryan a heel GM.

I'd love to see him in that role.

The smartest thing they could do is make the most beloved babyface in how long be a heel? They tried that and it flopped with Daniel Wyatt. And I say this as someone who loves Heel Bryan.

 

[Liquidsnake]

Tyler Breeze is rubbing his hands together in approval.

 

[Aiii]

Definitely no.

Authority figures forever.

The smartest thing WWE could do is make Bryan a heel GM.

I'd love to see him in that role.

Everyone has to wrestle and defeat a real bear to become #1 contender.

 

[klonere]

What a waste. Put him on commentary or make him an agent and get rid of authority figures forever. Forever. FOREVER.

I can't imagine the mental anguish it would cause Bryan to have to be a GM. The man clearly had his career painfully cut short and putting him back on weekly TV in a feature, non-wrestling role would be like sending a recovering alcoholic on a brewery tour where he can only drink water.

 

[XenoRaven]

If Bryan were a heel GM the next Survivor series teams would be #TeamGMO and #TeamNonGMO

 

[Bubba T]

If Bryan were a heel GM the next Survivor series teams would be #TeamGMO and #TeamNonGMO

Running water would be a thing of the past

 

[Sweeney Tom]

If Bryan were a heel GM the next Survivor series teams would be #TeamGMO and #TeamNonGMO

More injuries than ever because nobody would be allowed to have surgery with needles

I bet tm is loving this Mascara push in CMLL

I need the gif of Kurt Angle ascending from below in his wheelchair

Or the Pentagon Jr wheelchair gif.

[Bluekaveli]

Well he did tweet this after the announcement:

I do not want this. I bet his first act of business will be taking a powerbomb probably

 

[Fox318]

Thats the look the wrestling world had after Mania 2000 and Starrcade 1999.

They knew, they knew.

 

[Mengetsu]

Nakamura announces Babymetal to be one of the featured bands for the next NXTakeover special! Yesss

[XenoRaven]

I knew it was gonna be Karate

 

[Nekofrog]

i can't believe berlyn cares about his reputation online so much that he would go out of his way to win a multiman shoot fight just to keep his internet cred up

props to that guy, shoot fighting that many people takes a set

 

[slightconfuse]

Really glad my boy Kyle Orielly is tearing it up

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

Is Limp Bizkit only WWE's favorite band because Creed isn't around anymore?

They did use Alter Bridge for a while and that was just Creed minus Scott Stapp.

[klonere]

Heard a lot of really really good stuff about the AJPW show today. Can't wait to check it out whenever it floats up online.

 

[Professor Beef]

Undertaker vs Jeff Hardy is probably as good as Austin vs Bret. And they have the same result.

I've been saying something similar for years.

 

[FlammableD]

As someone who has got super into Babymetal in the last month, I'm all for this NXT announcement

 

[slightconfuse]

https://t.co/HzkAZ6ZDmj

So good

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Wonder if Bischoff will be the GM.

 

[Barrage]

I am hyped for this Brand Split. Drafts are always really fucking exciting (especially considering some years they straight up wouldn't tell people they were being drafted).

But please...PLEASE...keep one belt. The second one will never be considered equal.

But man...potential for a cruiserweight belt... so many things could happen right now...

 

[JavyOO7]

The real answer to more WWE is to bring back jobber matches.

They still are in Monday Night WAR mode. I honestly don't see them ever leaving it.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Random thoughts:

I love the idea of SmackDown going live, bringing back the brand split, and bringing back the WHC. I know it'll all turn to shit after 3 months, but damnit I'm gonna try to enjoy those three months for as long as possible.

If Cena becomes SmackDown's top dog, it's an absolute certainty that SD will get better ratings than Raw this fall.

The NXT stars pick the themes for NXT Takeovers now, Nakamura picked BabyMetal. They sound more like an average rock band than "metal" to me imo.

If we're gonna look back on WWE's history of buttrock, then these are some classics:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ts5yTwMZ684
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGGlsxtd-e4
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoTvk7ILlcw

And yes, Undertaker vs Jeff Hardy is a top 10 all-time WWE match.

 

[Nekofrog]

Babymetal is not an average "rock" band.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTxr5uu567s

That is metal.

edit: your links are the most accurate i've ever seen in the thread when calling something buttrock (usually people just apply the term to anything with guitars, whatever its genre). kudos!
