I should probz watch that Goldberg match again. >_>

 

[Sephzilla]

What? You and anyone who agrees with you on that is crazy.

I can do without Jon's racism and Gamergate tendencies. The first of which crept onto the show because he just had to say the n-word for the sake of comedy.

Yeah, these are some of the reasons I'm kinda glad he's not on the show.

When you walk into a work meeting and know you're going to kick ass

 

[Professor Beef]

Vidja gamez???

This the new era. Video games and pizza instead of coke benders and booze.

 

[Sephzilla]

Vidja gamez???

 

[wild wild rice]

Did we ever heard anything about Shane? Officially concussed?

I'm going to try something different this week. Just gonna watch the Raw highlights on YouTube and then watch Smackdown on Hulu.


Edit: Should have called it my top 10 "fantasy warfarez" of 2016.

I don't remember those things from the episodes I watched nor from Jon's actual content but "edgy" stuff tends to ruin everything so I believe it. Game Grumps has always been bad then.

Wrestlemania 33

 

[Heroman]

We all know that WWE 2k17 is the game of the year.

Duh.

 

[wild wild rice]

What title Goldberg is going to have a run at?

Legit shook right now.

The Crusierweights belt.

 

[Professor Beef]

Duh.

Sorry for not mentioning your fave PewDiePie.

 

[Kaladin]

While the career mode is more playable than last year's....eh no. It needs too much work to be perfect for even consideration.

Still playing it and enjoying the hell out of it though.

 

[DMczaf]

Dadberg !! 😀

I love how even after "the boys" tried to bury him in 98-99, nearly 20 years later he's still one of the biggest draws of all time.

Take THAT Nash!

 

[Kaladin]

I'm a little more curious if Goldberg sticks around and is like the new Sting in terms of appearance frequency. I thought the guy was one and done and that alone caused me to have zero interest in him or the Lesnar match.

 

[imBask]

yeah I would also love to see Goldberg take a bucklebomb like a man, unlike the other fraud

 

[DMczaf]

i love how Goldberg's promos are basically 80s wrasslin promos.

Yelling

Great facials

Believes in what he's saying

Short and to the point

 

[Sephzilla]

So lets run with the stupid Fantasy Warfare thing a bit. What would your Fav Five fantasy/dream matches be?

5- The Undertaker vs Sting
4- Shawn Michaels vs AJ Styles
3- Stone Cold Steve Austin (1996 ver) vs CM Punk
2- Bret Hart vs AJ Styles
1- Bret Hart vs Kurt Angle

 

[wild wild rice]

Wow, watching Raw clips makes it seem like a good show.

Pretty much, except replace #2 with Bret Hart vs The Rock and #1 with Daniel Bryan vs Kurt Angle.

4 Styles vs Michaels
5. Kenny Omega vs Michaels

I think Daniel Bryan and Kurt Angle would work better as a tag team than as adversaries. The promos would be fucking hilarious.

I can imagine Angle chugging some milk while Bryan eggs him on with a Yes chant.

 

[Heroman]

Bryan vs Benoit would be one hell of a match.

 

[DMczaf]

Bret Hart vs Kurt Angle would have been god damn amazing

Especially if it was Canadian Heel Bret....fuck!!

 

[imBask]

I don't get why people aren't yelling in their promos anymore... that worked for like 20 years, why are you all trying to copy Jake the Snake instead of just yelling?

 

[Sephzilla]

I can imagine Angle chugging some milk while Bryan eggs him on with a Yes chant.

THE OLYMPIC HERO AND THE AMERICAN DRAGON

Daniel Bryan & Kurt Angle vs Edge & Christian would have been wrasslin' comedy gold

Bret Hart vs Kurt Angle would have been god damn amazing

Especially if it was Canadian Heel Bret....fuck!!

Oh it's true, it's damn true

 

[Bandini]

Which of you four posted this on YouTube?

What a bunch of m***s

 

[Heroman]

Bryan vs Nakamura in NJPW would probably be the greatest match of all time.

 

[Kaladin]

Is Kurt Angle the last big WWF name that hasn't returned in years that could potentially make a comeback?

 

[Caspel]

Remind the reasoning why the Dudley Boyz left WWE again? With the state of the WWE tag-team division, so weird for them (rumored) to be negotiating an extension and almost sign to ask for a quick release.

They were tired of being jobbers.

He's probably the last one who can work a match and can pop a rating similar to Sting (I don't think he can pop a Goldberg rating tho)

 

[Uno Venova]

I'm waiting to see what will happen when age finally catches up and there really is no more in the Monday Night Wars well for Vince. Treating your actual full time roster like second class citizens is going to fuck him so hard.

 

[Kaladin]

Yeah but Hulk is Hulk and he'll always be back.

He's probably the last one who can work a match and can pop a rating similar to Sting (I don't think he can pop a Goldberg rating tho)

Kurt is really the only one I can think of. I think his return would pop a huge rating.

 

[Caspel]

Such a bummer. I wanted to see The Revival face off against them (whether in NXT or WWE).

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Blatantly disrespectful question.

 

[Caderfix]

They'll just bring Cena and Orton back every now and then, and then Roman and Rollins, and it will go on and on, having less and less impact for every new generation.

It is already fucking him, it is just going to get worse.

 

[Sephzilla]

Serious answer though. The three biggest former WWE stars that haven't come back in years are

-- Kurt Angle
-- Matt Hardy
-- Jeff Hardy

Daniel Bryan vs Shinsuke Nakamura

HONORABLE MENTION:
Kurt Angle vs Taz for the FTW title in ECW

"You deserve it!" *clap clap clap-clap-clap*

 

[SallyIsNow]

Austin '97 vs AJ Styles
Bret Hart vs AJ Styles
CM Punk vs AJ Styles
Pre-Mania 30 Undertaker vs AJ Styles at Mania
Buff Bagwell vs James Ellsworth

Spoiler

The obvious Sting vs Taker

I'd be okay for limited time runs for all three if they pass their physicals and wellness tests, along with help diversify match-ups along with help put over new talent.

I still would like to see Carlito, a better Batista run, a better RVD run if he decides he wants to get in shape and "retire", a retirement run for Christian, give John Morrison one more shot, and the Dudleyz have their final WWE retirement run.

As much as I love Jeff and Kurt, I don't think any of those can draw. The one person I think would do the trick is CM Punk if handled properly.

Kurt I think would draw because he's still pretty well remembered from his late-Attitude era stuff. The Hardy's wouldn't do much.

Punk returning would probably spike ratings.

I doubt there's anyone who could draw interest back the way CM Punk would, even though that's not happening.

 

[Sephzilla]

Punk's absolutely going to be back at some point, especially after he realizes he's never going to see a major UFC PPV ever again.
