No, no, no.

I'm talking about when Daniel Bryan turned heel, started No'ing, and then somewhere in his gradual face turn, he started yes'ing again.

I feel like he was facing a big enemy like Big Shoe or someone

 

[Zach]

Yo, wtf Sunny, another dude trying to cut heads off in Oklahoma? GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER, PAL.

Tell that jerk, stro!

 

[Ithil]

Even as a NOing heel, he would do YES if he won a match. Plus he began YES as a heel anyway.
He phased NO out as his main thing somewhere around early summer 2013.

She came from a world of abuse and thought of suicide. Then she put on a mask and now does this for every girl out there.

Then loses to a backbreaker :/

Everyone is watching the dailymotion version now:

I'm at work and can't confirm this, but after the pin didn't Stryker say that Cross pulled her tights? They didn't make a huge deal out of it like you'd expect, but that would be a good explanation for her loss. Unfortunately I don't remember seeing it happen

 

[Alucard]

How do we feel about this?

 

[British Monsoon]

Boots, is Icewind Dale EE better done than the Baldur's Gate ones?

Haven't played enough of it to tell, but it seems to play a lot smoother than the first Baldur's EE did at launch. They've done a great job with the background and music, but the sprites could've used some polish.

In case you aren't aware, there's a reason why Johnny Cage and JCVD are so similar.

JCVD was originally supposed to be in Mortal Kombat (or what eventually became it) but apparently he was a massive dickhole to Boon and Tobias. So they turned the concept of his character into Johnny Cage - a Hollywood asshole.

 

[SmithnCo]

Sexy Star losing makes no sense.

lol, after the inspiring promo I was expecting a win but I guess they want to build it up.

 

[Kaladin]

Sounds like Sexy Star is getting the Sami Zayn angle.

JCVD was a great movie. That's what I think every time I see JCVD.

Alright time to see what this Lucha Underground business is all about

Is there a way to watch Lucha Underground online legally?

You're going to place all of your faith of a show featuring Konnan, Vampiro, and Chavo in 2014 as being automatically better than WWE?

Cism.

 

[strobogo]

Cism.

Against? A Cuban pretending to be Mexican, a Canadian, and an American?

 

[Data West]

You can't be racist against Americans? Good to know.

 

[strobogo]

Man, I've been an American my whole life and I never knew it was my race.

 

[Kaladin]

I hate "Cism" as a trolling comment. It's the worst.

Not sure if this is legal but pretty sure it wouldn't put the viewer at risk =)

It makes me think of "Schism" by Tool every time I see it... >_>

 

[Serpentine]

That Sexy Star match, i feel like they weren't building up to an underdog thing with that hype video and entrance, but also that match was like 2 minutes long

sigh...guess I'll buy it again. ID is dope.

I'd like a hug from Bateaster.


This thread needs Laserfrog drawings.

 

[RP912]

About to dive into this Lucha Underground to see the big deal. I'm just happy Konnan can troll his old ass off without no filter.

Amazing gif is amazing.

Play it nice and cool, son. Nice and cool, y'know what I mean?

 

[Serpentine]

What if Raw were an 80s horror movie?

 

[British Monsoon]

All these "what if RAW were..." questions have one simple answer; it'd be BETTER.

 

[Marvel]

Know he's busy chasin' that Dwayne money but I hope my boy Big Dave returns somewhat soon.

Wyatt Family doesn't even get a photoshopped poster on WWE.com

truly berried

So the sub financials were bad right? I woke up this morning to an email saying no more six month commitment yhen fell asleep.....

Here are the Star Ratings from Meltzer for Hell in the Cell:

Cesaro vs Ziggler: 3 1/4
Nikki vs Brie: 2 1/2
Usos vs Star and Goldust: 3 1/4
John Cena vs Randy Orton: 3 3/4
Rusev vs Big Show: 2 1/4
Sheamus vs Miz: 2
AJ vs Paige: 2
Dean vs Rollins: 4

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Another dull looking NXT tonight, shit's on standby waiting for that Finn Balor debut.



That's not his biggest problem; all his matches are the same and he's not that great at selling. The Titus match, which technically fine, felt like every other Neville match and I don't give a damn about him being in peril when everyone already knows what the finish is going to be.

Yep. They are using Alexa Bliss too infrequently. And they are dragging out this Hideo Itami storyline.

It's a slow burn.

Yes.

It's not like the bar is set high at all

Alexa Bliss was injured during this set of tapings. Plus next weeks NXT is must see.

 

[Marvel]

Yes I wish people would stop hitting her in her goddamn beautiful face, knock it off.

 

[Alucard]

Man, watching Lucha Underground just exposes how utterly devoid of energy and focus the WWE is right now. I'm sure the smaller scale of the company/show contributes to this, as well as the fact that it's taped, but I see NO reason to wade through the WWE's weekly garbage variety show when I can get my wrestling fix in a much more compact and satisfying entertainment package.

"A Jim Cornette Production"

 

[Alucard]

It's a slow burn.

What does this phrase even mean?

 

[Officerrob]

That network number is a disaster

 

[XenoRaven]

What does this phrase even mean?

I think it started when Daniel Bryan was fighting the Authority and getting his face beat in every RAW.

 

[FallingEdge]

What does this phrase even mean?

I think it started when Daniel Bryan was fighting the Authority and getting his face beat in every RAW.

It is an old wrestling phrase. Basically, a storyline that develops over a long period of time. Sting vs Hogan is an example of a slow burn.

 

[Alucard]

Good times. The time the WWE's hand was forced by the fans. The build to Bryan's Mania victory post-Summerslam through Rumble was shiiiiiit.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

It's like grilling. You grill slowly, it's worth it. Sure, you could hotshot it, and get a quick payoff...but the best meat is the one you let cook for a long time.
