I'm a +2, both are casual lurkers on GAF and huge wrasslin' fans. Also, I think we win the prize for "furthest travel distance to Mania" coming from Calgary, AB. Unless there are any British Invasion GAF coming.

Maybe we should just do a community thread for Mania weekend events?

That might actually be an idea. A catch-all thread just for those of us there would keep it easy to follow as WrassleGaf will be running wild as usual.
 
Not PG..,

He was saying he prefers the entertainment value provided over a year of WWE content than a season of other (higher quality) shows.

I get his reasoning.
 
They'll introduce some new talent after Mania like always. After the draft Raw usually leaves Smackdown empty and they have to rebuild again so new guys will be brought up around that time. With HHH saying he wants everyone to debut with a storyline and proper build up, hopefully they turn out ok.

I don't really watch NXT, but I see these guys show up in 40-man over the top battle royales.

Where do they fit in? Do they just job to Brodus Clay?
 
That was never mentioned on-air yet, so anything could happen. I could see either him or Foley be part of it
Would be awesome if they got Foley since he and Taker have a history. I'm hoping that the storyline ends up changing though. They're making it seem like it's all about Triple H and HBK, but it should be about Taker since this might end up being his final match.

Well supposedly they aren't just going to throw people on tv anymore with no storyline or reason, so we will have to see. They all should be given gimmicks and promo vignettes hyping their debuts. Dean Ambrose can keep his Raven style character. Antonio Cesaro will probably keep his swiss foreigner gimmick. I never even see Seth Rollins on FCW when I watch, so no clue what they would bring him in as. Kassius Ohno needs to get in shape before they put him on tv.

He looked like shit at the ROH PPV back in December. You don't need to be a borderline Mr. Olympia contestant or drop down to 8% bodyfat, of course, but he looked like a pudgy, out-of-shape everyday Joe. Like he had just stopped working out and put on 10 pounds for no real reason from whenever I had saw him last live until then.
 
Speaking of Wrestlefest, there's already a spot for it on Marketplace (game's not up though, of course):

looks like shit.

I hate how they use the classic WWF logo. It looks so fucking stupid with just the WW part. I understand the legal reasons but if you can't use the proper classic logo , don't try to attempt something else at all. WWE logo in general needs to drop the scratch logo and come up with something else.

Or maybe they can just use the logo they have for the network.

Yep, the guy better get a clue before he gets fired. With the way he looks they will get rid of him quickly.
 
He hates the gym so much though. Somebody must like him, because I'm surprised he got signed in the shape he's in.

He's got The Look (distinct, make him popular etc) from the neck up. He could even pull off some absurd Fabio gimmick given how he looks. From the neck down, though, half the audience is in better shape.

Even if he hates exercise, he just needs a diet.

Dude's got muffin tops.
 
I'll be at mania too staying in south beach. Having a tournament at my hotel room and giving away some swagg that WWE is sending me . Yall are welcome if you want :)

What kind of tournament? (please tell me it's n64 wrestling) Why do you get swagg?

Ok so, trying to determine a headcount here for Mania, I've got:

djsandman + 1
rvd2kewl
Breakyboy
Perspicacity
krae_man +1
ZeroRay
BillRiccio

Did I miss anyone or any possible plus ones?
I'll be there. Got a rotating couple people that I'll be meeting up with.

Man, I'd love to try Kofi's Trouble in Paradise if I knew how to do it, and was able to jump that high. That would be fucking sweet to pull off

It's a jumping corkscrew roundhouse kick to the head isn't it? I learned how to do a jumping roundhouse to the head a little over a year into some martial arts work. No where near as pretty as Kofi's of course, but it was effective enough. Of course, I'm too fat to even attempt anything resembling it now. :/

My point is, it's not quite as hard as it looks. The hard part isn't doing it, it's doing so it looks good AND having enough control not to hurt your opponent. When I did it, it was undoubtedly ugly and the few times I connected, my opponent went to the floor and stayed there.

In any case, if you want to learn how to do some of these things, I'm sure you could train somewhere near you.
 
Just watching Impact. This fucking idiot Taz just told people they should watch Jersey Shore at the same fucking time a new episode of Jersey Shore is on the other channel. Also, who made the decision to PGify Impact? Even ass is getting censored now.
 
Eric Bischoff commented on the next set of tapings of Impact on twitter(this will be the first set Russo-free).

"Story, character, structure. Looking forward to the next set of TV's. Been a long time coming."

Took a bit longer than planned, but I told you so last year. ;)
