Last night was great, that's like three specials in a row that the women steal the show. Becky being the suplex specialist is right up my alley, not if she could just settle on a look....

 

[slightconfuse]

So Rusev is basically Macho Man now... with his fury/jealously with Lana. Too bad he lost his Hulk Hogan.

He gets to fued with Brutus now

It's three in a row where the women had good matches, but in none of the cases outshone the main event.

man that's cold

 

[Kaladin]

The women weren't even better than the #1 contender's match IMO.

 

[Chamber]

Yeah man, I hate these NXT chants. Let's go back to the days when you could chant "You're a faggot" or "You're a crack whore" and no one would bat an eyelash. These NXT crowds are just weak in comparison.

(not implying it has to be one or the other...sarcastic post, friends)

"Sasha's ratchet!" is basically a millennial version of "You're a crack whore!"

 

[FallingEdge]

Hope they don't watch a PWG show

That would require actually liking wrestling or actively trying to watch other feds.

I definitely disagree, they usually have a shocking endings but Owens has had better matches with Adrian than Zayn in NXT so far.

 

[jmdajr]

There better be some crossover deal with Tyler Breeze and Zoolander 2.

 

[Cagey]

Nah, it's the millennial version of saying "bling bling".

 

[Kaladin]

Gotta admit, the paint job was epic last night.

How many "clever" chants do you expect at the AAA World Cup tournament on Sunday or does that not count?

 

[Uno Venova]

Wings and an evil eye feels like the most you could 'evolve' his red and black paint, wonder if he really changes the paint in the next event.

 

[Sephzilla]

It's absolutely unbelievable to me how many people in here complain about NXT and Raw after Mania crowds and such. Even if half of their chants are crappy, it's still better than listening to a crowd that only knows how to chant "Let's go Cena/Cena sucks" and is silent for the other 90% of the show.

The people who complain about the Full Sail & Raw After Mania crowds probably enjoy Raws from Corpus Christi.

I missed quite a few RAWs, but I caught the Payback PPV. Has Rollins adopted the pedigree as his finisher now? That's lame as hell.

Curbstomp got legit banned, using the Pedigree sets him up as HHH's little guy more.

Its an okay compromise imo

 

[Kaladin]

Pedigree is better than another strike finisher.

And honestly, it's a move no one is doing now, if anyone is going to do it, give it to the guy that Triple H has hand picked as the future.

Did you year Chucky T is getting a tryout!

 

[Man God]

I finally finished KotR 1996. While mainly remembered for that Austin promo the real revelation here is the Mankind and Undertaker match. Now while Undertaker has been having better, higher tempo matches lately with Bret and Diesel at the end of 1995 and beginning of 1996 it isn't until Mankind arrives on the scene that he finally becomes the real undertaker.

He's basically spent his entire career after Hogan being this weird alternate universe top babyface who feuds against these awful monster heels like Gonzalez, Bundy (arguably his best match until Diesel!) Yokozuna (though these matches were fun) Mabel, Faker Taker. But Mankind? Dude isn't afraid of caskets. He lives on pain.

The crowd goes ballistic in the middle of the match when Mankind takes out the chairs and doesn't know what to think when the Cactus elbow happens.

 

[Sephzilla]

Seth using the Pedigree is fantastic for his character.

Mankind's promos around this time were really something else.

 

[Man God]

Seth using the Pedigree is fantastic for his character.

Absolutely.

 

[Aiii]

Seth using the Pedigree is fantastic for his character.

It's an iconic finisher and has, well, a pedigree to it that helps elevate him, for sure.

 

[The Elite]

Seth using the Pedigree is fantastic for his character.

Agreed. They just need to cut his support group. He needs to win one on his own. Seth looked great during the triple threat at the Rumble but I haven't been that entertained by any of his in ring work since. I think working solo with Ambrose will help.

Triple H should stay in the mentor role.

 

[Kaladin]

Damn tempted to buy a ticket for the next NXT house show.

I know I won't see Joe, but I'll probably see Uhaa by then, and Steen will be wrestling this time.

 

[Alucard]

Hmm...

What is RATCHET?
RATCHET is "Undesirable, coarse woman"

[Hasney]

Clearly need to start a "Bex is Clank" chant.

 

[Kaladin]

Sooooo

about TNA....what's next for them?

 

[The Elite]

Destination America feels like the last place left they had to go.

Someone mentioned moving to the UK. I am not sure that would save them.

 

[Sephzilla]

Sooooo

hopefully nothing

 

[slightconfuse]

She looked more like Jak last night

 

[Ithil]

TNA Mecca Comments.
Simon is the truth.

Watch out, Simon has Viking blood. He might raid your village for gold, or possibly take up football and beat your hometown's team.

 

[iMax]

The TNA Network!

 

[Kaladin]

I wonder if WWE would pity buy their library to help them pay all their bills.

 

[Ithil]

I don't know what matches you watched. The Bálor/Breeze match was a TV match with a dive at the end. It seemed pretty obviously gutted after Hideo was injured.

 

[slightconfuse]

Wrestling or not no tv station is going to pay for a show that has been canceled twice

Might as well jusr move to the UK and be a large indie

 

[XenoRaven]

I think I need a break from gaming side after this Witcher stuff.

Ja.

 

[dream]

I thought the chants almost ruined the girlfight. And "this is wrestling" is the most inane and idiotic chant those inane idiots spew.

 

[Alucard]

Care to elaborate?

Fall of TNA DVD should be very entertaining, Russo, Bischoff, hogan, Cornette, Dusty all giving interviews

Man, I wish. It would be glorious.

 

[kiguel182]

People screaming "downgrade" and calling devs "lying scum" because they changed rendering engines since the original one apparently didn't work in an open world.

This for a game that everybody agrees is awesome.

People are jerks I'm assuming it's the take away from here.

 

[Nocturnowl]

We'll be able to enjoy the sights and silence of Corpus Christi in just a week or so, Owens will be going from one extreme to another crowd wise.

 

[Sephzilla]

Unless its some grossly big visual downgrade like Dark Souls 2, i think complaints are a bit unwarranted.

How is Witcher 3 by the way?

Meanwhile I'm playing the game and having a great time, while they type angrily in a forum about some graphics thing I don't care about.

Apparently being on Twitter and being a WrassleGAFfer means you'll likely piss me off and get blocked at some point.
