Dude, I wasn't even the one that started it, and it wasn't my pic that drew the most ire.
It is different but would they let him do it because WWE loves to steal finishers from NXT/FCW and give it people at the main level.
Look at Dean Ambrose his finisher was given to Otunga for 1 or 2 times then Sheamus took it and its now called White Noise.

Preview of the PWG 2012 Battle of Los Angeles - spoiler warning, obviously;
Hero - Wade's using the ripchord elbow, one of the many various elbows Hero used to hit.
He's actually wrestled a couple of matches this past week - guess his injury wasn't as severe as they thought and he didn't need surgery.

I guess that explains it, I never got to see PPVs when I was younger.
I actually admire Soulplaya's love of Kane. He contributes to the discussion and knows his stuff. I do have more of an appreciation for Mr G Jacobs than I ever thought possible.
It's always nice to have discussion about the indies or how hyped you are for the next TNA ppv but wrestling is ridiculous really, there's no need to be so serious about it. No-one wants Midnight Wrasslegaf levels of giffery and the fan art can go a bit far but the thread would be a boring place if it weren't for some of the characters and humour contained therein.
There are plenty of boring, over-serious places to discuss wrestling on the internet.
And someone seriously complained about the fighting game tournament? It was a great idea and was designed to promote interactivity in the thread. I understand too many GIFs etc to a point but complaining about something that someone arranged to get people involved is crazy

Ambrose would use the regal streach if anything
Looks too similar to STFU, they wouldn't let him do it
He should use the Regal knee

Wow, I was out for most of the weekend watching AAA and CMLL stuff, and I come back to...insanity.
Welcome back! :|
Welcome back! :|
Midnight WrassleGAF was around LOOOOONG before Kane. Long before him. And it had way more fucked up things then (a lot of it wasn't even wrestling related at all). Personally, I would argue that I have just as much a right to discuss Kane as you do Indy wrestling. I've never "spammed the same pics over and over again". However, there have been times where you've posted the same indy poster over and over again trying to get people hyped up for it. I've never complained about it (I actually appreciate it, and think it's great). It's both wrestling. There was a time where I did nothing but post wrestling matches trying to get people to discuss them, but it doesn't really work all that much.
This thread will never be about indy wrestling. It's just too inconvenient and difficult to get into. Last night was about a 30 minute stretch at midnight. You guys have indy viewing times, and I don't interfere or try to sabotage it. Hell, I wish I could join you guys, but my funds are dirt low right now (I'm spending thousands right now flying through the country for interviews and applications). There was a time when Bish tried to clamp down on the pics and gifs in this thread, but people rebelled. You guys may not like it, but it's just as much a part of this community as anything else. Last night may have been much, but it was like a 30 minute stretch. Get over it. Ninety percent of my Kane posts are about his matches and actual happenings in his career. I barely post Kane "art" anymore, and I only did last night as a joke. Hell, I barely even posted all of last month. Like I've said before, I appreciate all aspects of this community, because that's what this community is about. The divas gifs/pics, discussions, video game streams, Kane pics, etc. are all apart of it. There are many other wrestling boards out there that are strictly wrestling. What separates this one from the others is the life of the community here, and its diversity.
As far as Fex goes, I'll admit that he can try a little too hard at times, but I like him, and most of his "take this board" down talk are just jokes. His NWA stream back in the days took a lot of effort, and it was usually the best part of the week.
I will say that I'm glad that we're getting this out in the open, though, and finally able to get stuff off our chests.
Exactly. There are plenty of places to STRICTLY discuss wrestling on the net. WrassleGAF is a plethora of personalities and perspectives, with wrestling as the overall guiding principle.

I only post in this thread during RAWs and PPVs. Other than the fact that I'm busier now than I was when I started being a WrestleGAF regular, the community itself annoys the hell out of me and I guess G-Fex's ban didn't help things.
Now, I'm not condoning everything G-Fex has done here. Some of the things he's said here are in fact cringe worthy in my opinion, but he was a contributing member who did watch the product. Sure, he may not have catered to your darling indie-feds that are 1000% better than the WWE but it wasn't as if he was watching an entirely different product. If things did get that rough (I'm really not willing to backread WRESTLEGAF), why didn't you guys just talk through DMs about it rather than get mod intervention?
But, that's really my two cents. This isn't an "in-character post", I'm not "cutting a promo" but I feel we're better than that.

I really miss PMs. Everything can be solved with PMs.
Regarding my AAA and CMLL experience, I went out to try to find some of the history between La Parka and Konnan's rivalries. Good stuff.

Actually since you aren't around much anymore, he changed his character to hating WWE and only liking indie/TNA(same thing, right?)

I liked the thread better when everything was less....gimmicky, but I don't come here much at all anymore because WWE is terrible right now.
Let's be fair here...
but I didn't think it was too bad! Some people take wrestling seriously though, NO FUN ALLOWED!

Alright alright folks let's stop treating this like a eulogy for G-Fex and justification of horrible Kane fanart.
Let's just keep our shit in order. Fex will be back, everything will be fine, and all we need to do is keep our shit together. We're all grown ass men or women and we are capable of not acting a fool.
Let's all remember:
1: Got a problem? PM it before you let it eat you alive.
2: The end, we're grown folks. I think.
Now with that out of the way, let's continue on.

Twitter is like more relevant to WWE right now than actual wrestling.
Those weren't the same pics. If you pay attention, you'll notice that in each post, they were either out of order or at least one or two of the pics were different. That was my whole idea behind them, to see if anyone noticed.
No one noticed.
What specifically did you watch?
I did what I did for the good of the thread, not because people don't watch enough wrestling or whatever. When you have certain personalities who try to get themselves over at the expense of others or at the expense of thread, that can be a problem. G-Fex will be back and hopefully everything will be cool then. Also let's try not to get too obsessive over any one thing when we're posting images or doing whatever because we're bored between shows. That kind of thing can scare people away from the thread which isn't good for a community. It's ok to have fun with what we're watching....sometimes that is the only way we can enjoy it, but there is a line there and we should know when it is too much.
That's all I will say on that.
That's all I will say on that.
I've conditioned myself to skip any post that has a picture of Kane in it.

A lot of La Sociedad feuding with pretty much everyone, but late 2010 Guerra de Titanes and Rey de Reyes.

Do I -really- need more excuses to watch more Okada (yes and no) - the man is a damn prince.
djsandman I'm not actually mad at you okay? Maybe you've given a chance for G-Fex to look in himself, and change himself for the better! I didn't really get bothered by all the pictures but I can understand if some people were. I will say I think WWE does a better job of scaring people away from this thread than anyone in here can.
I'm moving on and am looking forward to celebrating Dean Ambrose week tomorrow!
I need to remember to watch this later when football isn't on.

So who will be the first to take up on the fact that Wade Barrett is open for business? perfect chance for Del Rio to use his vast funds for a heel action against Sheamus and this could lead nicely into a Sheamus/Barrett feud.
I say they go with this, make this ADR stuff more interesting.

Ah, La Sociedad. Theres some great stuff from El Zorro during that time. I really wish they would do more with the prophet part of his character
G-Fex contributed greatly to these threads. Like I said, his NWA work was fantastic. His constant "gimmick changes" were a bit too much, but he's a good guy.
I, however, have been a part of WrassleGAF for years, and this is not a gimmick. I'm not trying to get over, and I don't view this thread like that. I try to get involved in discussions where I can, but my love for Kane is legitimate. I'll admit that I don't watch as much wrestling as I used to, but neither do most of the other people in this thread. People will post what they want to. A Kane or Divas discussion is not taking the place of some indy discussion (and I'm current watching the match Bootaaay just linked to) that could have been. It's not like people are trying to discuss indy stuff, and I just go, "fuck that, here's Big Red Sexy!"
Last night, few people were posting, nothing was really going on, so I decided to have some fun with another poster.

Sure, that'd make a lot of sense - so it won't happen. Who knows. Ugh. Santino will hire him to get Aksana.
I really liked El Zorro a lot. There's still a lot more for me to watch. The CMLL stuff I watched was pretty much all of their events in May 2010.
I don't know what you're talking about, man!
You know I really hated him when the whole legends thing started, but I'm kind of warming up to him...
Sounds like a challenge to me.
How about some Sin Cara action then?

I like it. Having Sheamus vs. Barrett would play pretty good in the Euro market too.

This makes for a good runner up choice, that's one way to get a cash in.
We all know that the best theme mash up is Steve Blackman and Umaga.
Just imagine the commentary, so many mean street mentions.
That works way too well.
When G-Fex quit doing the NWA was when he started to become a problem.....at least that's my opinion. He became clearly bored with it and just started having fun with the thread trying to bring it down. Also, I will admit you have been better about the Kane stuff somewhat since you came back, but when I wake up and see a full page of Kane fan art, that's a bit much, regardless of whether it was just you, or you and another poster. There is discussion and then there is spamming fan art. I'm not questioning your love for Kane, and that is cool and all, but there is a point where it's too much.....there are some creepy Kane fans out there and I have seen some examples from this thread that I could have gone without seeing.

Yeah, that line sounded awkward to me too. But I'm going to give him a pass, since it's his big return and the match itself was serviceable.
That would be interesting, if only because we'd have a brawler who eschews technical wrestling fighting a brawler who's forced to adopt a wider variety of moves. It would be a Sheamus feud, but still.
WWE clearly thinks that ADR vs Sheamus is riveting sports entertainment, though, so we can expect more of that for the next month or two.
