*Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

[Spikey]

can't you just have aj beat cena at the rumble, book some things, and have aj face cena at wm

(where he should beat him again)

 

[Athlai]

I'd be fine with Cena winning the title at either, he's been great in the last two years.

 

[Spikey]

they don't need to rush it. he's part time. he can win at next year's wm. he should be doing the job for the full time SD star

 

[Athlai]

So the Devlin - Burch controversy and the Dunne cheap shot and fallout have made the UK championship tournament way more interesting than it has any right to be.

RIP Jimmy Superfly Snuka, an 80s great.

Guys I'm completely out of touch with wrestling but with Mania on the horizon need to reinstate my network and get back into business

What's best at the minute, Raw or SD? Or have they done the brand split well enough that you really oughta watch both?

Smackdown all worth watching, talking smack too. YouTube raw.

Smackdown's generally passable, if not thoroughly entertaining.

• At two hours rather than three there's less filler
• They've got AJ Styles, who's basically the best performer in the entire company at the moment.
• You've got Cena, Ambrose and Miz - probably the three best on the mic.
• A babyface/in the background GM in Daniel Bryan (who's actually likeable) rather than the Stephanie/Foley ****show on RAW.
• The women are used relatively well, and there's a spotlight on more than two of them, unlike RAW. Plus, for whatever reason, most of them seem really good promos as well. Carmella was a bit of a surprise in that department. I can't even watch Sasha on RAW these days.

 

[duffer]

I'm in the "if I'm home and it's on i'll watch it, otherwise bleh" camp but apparently Smackdown beat RAW in the ratings for the first time ever recently.

Going to make it a point to watch the Rumble and both shows through Mania though.

Just hope OS doesn't get himself banned a month before again this year. That guy....

Nah **** him. Murdering bastard.

How did he get away with that? From what I have read on reddit and stuff, it seemed like a straightforward case?

Haha literally Vince's money too.

Yeah such a perfect gif haha.

No such thing really, unless it's caught on camera. But yeah, sounds dodgy AF.

Kurt Angle going into the Hall of Fame, Meltzer speculation that he may be involved in a programme to some extent.

Yussssssssssssssssss

From the little I've heard/read, it doesn't sound it's like a done deal that we'll see him in the ring again. But in whatever capacity he's used, it will be good to see him in the WWE again.

I think the thing I'd like to see the most if we can't get him back in the ring, is for him to be a new Raw/SD GM (to either replace an awful Foley, or a daddy DB).

 

[Mike5181]

Angle as Raw GM and Stephanie's character getting a bit of a reset to become more behind the scenes/Shane-esque would be great.
