*Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

[Athlai]

Yeah the BR is meaningless, don’t think it really would’ve meant much at all for Ember to win it.

The six woman tag was surprisingly decent, Riott Squad have finally won me over. Too bad they’re a 3 woman team on a show with 16 women, so they’re guaranteed to perpetually feud with the same people for all eternity.

The Bayley protecting Sasha spot was echoes of Gargano taking the ladder shot for Ciampa. Hopefully they finally pull the trigger on Sasha turning heel at some stage, even if it’s just to build up an opponent for Ronda.

Since when has the main roster been about what the people want? Or talent? This is Vince we're talking about here. Io should be near the top of the card permanently, but she won't be. Just wait.

15yo AZM with the "everyone older than me is a grandma" swag and Konami just barely holding in her laughter is extremely my ****.

yeah the grandma insults hit the sweet spot for me

[sledger]

Was in Nippon just over a month ago ffs

 

[Agent TBY]

Please don't tell me you were there while I was. I flew out on September 1st...

 

[sledger]

ffs srizza

 

[sledger]

2nd - 14th Sept

 

[Agent TBY]

Not sure whether to take solace in the fact that hey, at least we weren't there at the same time, or to rue that you got in one day after I left.

 

[sledger]

Actually tbh I was in Korea until the 5th or 6th I think. But still. Ships in the night

 

[andmark]

So, time for part two. I have asked for the previous one closed as suggested by Jack.

Seeing as its a new thread let's do a quick WWE title roll call.

WWE Champion: John Cena
World Heavyweight Champion: Randy Orton
US Champion: Kofi Kingston
IC Champion: Wade Barrett
Tag Champs: Big Show and Kane
Divas Champ: Brie Bella (I think it's Brie anyway)

I think Sting is TNA Champ, no idea about ROH.

Anyway, as you were...

First post of this thread. Have things improved from this title list? That looks ****ing awful to me. Cena and Orton dominating never really entertained me.

 

[Athlai]

Cena was definitely a bit underrated through a lot of the 2010s. Cena = Styles, (Cena > Styles casuals, Styles > Cena smarks)
Orton was probably slightly overrated in the 2010s Reigns > Orton but Reigns is gone now. Have personally thought Lesnar's reign has been miserable and hope it doesn't return.
Kofi was cooling off at that point, and is now a part of what will go down as one of the ATG teams. Shinsuke is also cooling off. Kofi = Shinsuke
Wade was a gun, but Rollins is ****ing awesome and in the hottest feud going and been brilliant as of late. Rollins > Barrett
Tag Champs - the vacant belts on Raw are better than Big Show vs. Kane, not exactly a career highlight for either legend. Raw tag belts have been suffering a bit but on Smackdown they're pretty much as good as the belts have ever been.
Divas. Rousey >>> Brie
Becky >>>>> Brie


So yeah overall its in a far better stead.

 

[Niall]

I know the Saudis have done some bad things over the years, but do they really deserve 3 Dolph Ziggler matches in a night? To compound the mediocrity we also have 3 Miz matches, with such a stacked roster what a **** match up this is.

Was that first post around the same time Orton was moving around with his legacy?

 

[Niall]

Non stop Dolph Zigger matches in 2018 and Brock as champion again, this has been a horrific show.

 

[sledger]

Sounds like a real mess. Actually makes me more interested to watch the highlights.

Poor old Braun, what does the bloke have to do to get a title.

Maybe they don't want Braun to have his first title on this show which they may never discuss again?

More likely they think Brock is the safe option as his previous reigns have been so remarkable.

Its ****ing dire though.
