*Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

[Agent TBY]

That was the best NJPW match in ages. The worst part about it is that if they'd just let him go HW and put on clinics like that, he wouldn't be leaving.

It's got to be his size, right? They must've thought it was never going to be believable to bill him as HW. Otherwise, there's no reason they'd let ****ing Ospreay do it and not Kushida.

Then again, they're pretending Takagi is a junior, so what do I know.

Sounds like Charlotte is a lock for the Lynch/Rousey match.

Which sucks balls but, like Niall says, hardly surprising.

I don't think anything will be 100% locked in just yet, the Rousey - Becky 1 on 1 showdown hopefully swung Vince's opinion away from the triple threat (which would still be good tbf)

 

[Athlai]

WWE admitting Dean is leaving makes a voice in my head say "this is a work"

Yeah everything subject to change obvs, but apparently vince is determined for Charlotte to be in the first ever women's WM main event

 

[Athlai]

The downside is outside of those 3, no one really would make a good opponent for Asuka. Maybe trade Sasha and Bayley to SD?

 

[Niall]

May as well just call up Sane tbh.

 

[Mike5181]

I'd do:

Lynch vs. Rousey
Charlotte vs. Asuka
Sasha/Bayley vs. Sane/Shirai

It's obviously the size, but they can't care about that too much because ZSJ is hebbyq and he weighs as much as a 2B pencil.

 

[Mike5181]

If Kushida was jacked like Ishimori and wore lifts like Kenny he'd pass as a small heavyweight.

 

[Athlai]

Holy **** this Smackdown.

Best bit of all might be Rowan's titantron.

Those two will almost certainly be in the final of the tag tournament

 

[sledger]

Itami granted his release

Such a waste

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Give me KENTA vs Kenoh already.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Samoa Joe gave the best one minute promo of all time.

 

[Dan]

Halftime Heat was fun

 

[sledger]

Well the Dean Ambrose burial has begun.

At least they did it to get EC3 over a bit I guess.

Was worried that for a moment when that segment started that EC3's debut was going to involve him being buried by Nia Jax.

 

[sledger]

Not that it matters either way in the long run though. I have no confidence whatsoever that they will do anything interesting/meaningful with EC3.

 

[Mike5181]

Best part about EC3 is probably his talking and sense of humour, but they aren't even letting him do that.

 

[Athlai]

It’s taken them three years but they’re finally giving Apollo Crews a character beyond smiling babyface that has friends.

It's been, what, two weeks?
