Just saw that 3MB.... 3MB.... 3MB.... actually WON a match. On Main Event. Over Tons of Funk. It was 3 vs. 2, but still. 3MB won.
BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!

Yeah, we should all just obsess over random indie female wrestlers and play Samurai Warriors games instead.
Oh SNAP

Rey really should just retire at this point for his own sake. I used to love him back in the day, but his body is just proper fucked now.

You guys need a video package to explain the Snowglobe Kliq to everyone.
"One day a bunch of marks marked out harder than anyone marked before.
The rest is history"
I don't know, I'd like to see him go out with Kevin Nash once again throwing him onto the side of a trailer like nothing.

You're like the Derrick of rasslin. You shit on everything but won't stick your neck out for anything in particular thus no one listens to anything you have to say.

For someone who supposedly hates AJ as much as you do, you sure seem to mention her in every other post Fex.

WrestleGAF Shoot Fights tend to end better than most WWE feuds.

I wouldn't say anything bad about you. Your in-depth knowledge of "break a syringe off in someone's skull" matches makes you a force to be reckoned with.

Remember how well they capitalised on his bare knuckle fighting character? (if that was his character, he was punching dudes in some dank cellar just because) he gained an elbow smash and nothing else, got booked the same inconsistent way as every other mid carder.
So yeah a repackage doesn't really amount to anything, seeing WWE are going all new generation these days maybe he'll come back as a suave secret agent who uses gadgets to win his matches.
Sounds like it would make for a nice dvd match compilation.
Hulk Hogan hulks up off a Macho Man elbow drop - LOL HULK SUX NO SELLING SHIT

I think he'll be repackaged as the Royal Baby sent to our time from the future, to wrestle.

It's been so long, I don't even remember if Wade is actually a good wrestler or not.

Weirdest thing I've read in wrestling all week; RF Video goes nuts on Botchamania's facebook page and seems to be insinuating that the whole To Catch a Predator-esque local news sting operation he was caught in was in fact all part of an elaborate plan to defame his character and force him out of ROH.
So unnecessarily obnoxious and a perfect example of what I'm talking about. It's obvious that, for some people, indy wrestling begins and ends with Davey Richards no selling like a chump, whereas I think it's pretty disingenuous to lump hundreds of wrestlers and dozens of promotions together in the same basket. Carry on, though.

They should just give Wade Maven's old theme song. It's better than anything Wade has had since his debut.

Wade Barrett getting repackaged for the 72nd time?
Sweet.
Couldnt they just have him reform the nexus already or something. It was the only role that really fit him and only went to shit because of "Cenawinslol" booking.
It would give Justin Gabriel something to do as well. Toss JTG in there for some reason.
Nexus 3.0: the midcard time forgot.

I don't know what this is about, can you clarify what's going on?

Rob Feinstein, the guy who runs RF Video and was part-owner of ROH, was caught in a paedophile sting operation by a local NBC news affiliate - they had chat logs of him talking to and agreeing to meet a 14 year old boy, including the now infamous line from RF; "lol, I'll pretend u said 18". When he arrived at the house, he found an NBC news crew there and bolted for his car.
Obviously, this story airing on the local news created some big problems for ROH, namely that TNA wanted to end their dealings with them, which meant guys like AJ & Christopher Daniels couldn't work ROH any longer. Feinstein in the end had to agree to selling his half of the promotion and, although no charges were ever brought against him, rumours persisted. Fast forward to this week, Maffew posted a picture of Feinstein in bed with Sunny on the Botchamania facebook page, lots of people made jokes about Feinstein in the comments and, surprisingly, he actually responded and went on a huge rant about how none of us know the full story. He then goes on to explain the whole thing (badly) and seems to be insinuating that Cary & Syd, his former partners in ROH, had set the whole thing up as a way to force him out of the promotion and steal his business. Despite rambling on for some 5000 words, he can't seem to explain exactly what is was that made him run away from the news cameras without even finding out what they were there for and insists that he was "picking up a friend", rather than trying to meet an under-age boy.
Wade Barrett would be the perfect client for Paul.
Wade can speak pretty well, isn't Curtis Axel, is a pretty good mid-tier wrestler, and Paul owes him a favor.
The only gimmicks that could help Curtis are one where he doesn't talk and one where he's an evil 80s movie villain.
Have you heard him talk? He sounds like a young teen trying to do a grown up voice while calling a sex line.

Wade is still salvageable, due to the simple fact than in WWE, heels = cowards. All you'd have to do to make Wade legit (or any WWE heel, for that matter), despite years of burials and nothing feuds, is to have him act like a heel who isn't a coward and who can conclusively & cleanly beat important faces. I know, crazy talk, right? Also, picking a character & theme music for him and then sticking with it would probably be a great help, also.
Axel's immediately forgettable, even with Paul covering for his awful mic work. He's worth less than Wade in my estimation.

Probably too early to book it but using DDT4 to put together Young Bucks Vs Steen & Cole with all four being dick heels to each other would be fantastic.
I would love to marathon a bunch of this year's PWG shows but I often get burned out from just watching one of their DVDs.

Wade Barret is still going to be a world champion. I look forward to his success.

Post that story in the Dan Schneider thread. You'll get responses like, "14 doesn't make you a pedo, bro", and :
I love that WWE is in storylines blaming Brad Maddox for that shit show called Battleground. Its funny and very WCW esque
There is something funny about Stephanie McMahon and Hunter yelling and looking down on this no name wrestler who is barely relevant, when they themselves are the ones booking this abhorrent shit
