    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Everyone said this going into 'Mania though, but nothing happened. I'm gearing up to be disappointed.

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Here's a poser for people, one which I don't know the answer to - when was the last time Triple H lost a title by being cleanly pinned? I believe it might be as far back as WrestleMania 21, but I'm not sure. He lost his belt to Jeff Hardy at Armageddon when Edge was pinned, he lost his title to...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    I missed most of the ending of RAW thanks to my laptop crashing, but from what I gather, Vince has now been replaced in that match by a returning Batista - is that correct? If so, it should make it a lot better, even given how much I hate Batista. Right now, words cannot express how strongly I...

    Apparently three matches have been announced for tonight's RAW - a rematch from the dark match last night for the Unified Tag Titles, a 10-Diva Tag Match, and a WrestleMania All-Star Tag Match, featuring these two teams: World Heavyweight Champion John Cena, Mr. Money In The Bank CM Punk...

    I marked out massively for Christian wearing his hooded-pyjamas outfit, that he hasn't worn since his comeback. Was so hoping he'd win. The one positive of Punk winning is that they surely will have to do something different with MITB now. Maybe turn Punk heel, or have someone else win the...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Pretty much summed it up there, masterblaster. Some good, some bad, and one all-time classic in HBK-Taker. I'm pissed off with the Triple H-Orton ending, and confused by MITB, and disappointed with the tag match being pulled, and once again confused by JBL-Rey, but mostly I'm trying to focus on...

    Personally, I can see him returning, but it won't be for maybe ten years or so. The movies will dry up for him, and even if he can't wrestle, he'll miss the fans enough to eventually make the odd live appearance here and there.

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Surely it's got to happen at some point. It's just a question of whether or not they want to give it away on Raw or not. I do also think that if Orton unveils DH Smith as the new member of Legacy on Raw after Mania (as has been mooted for ages), that it's possible we might get the rather surreal...

    Wow. Probably the first time in my life I've been gutted I live in the south... :p Seriously though, if I had enough money I'd be considering taking an early train up to go meet him.

    Like KP a lot less than I used to after the last few months. Can't blame him for being tired, but it's part and parcel of being an international cricketer. It's all well and good not being afraid to speak your mind, but there are times when it's inappropriate, and this is one of them.
  11. Barney Rubble

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    That's much better than my scenario. I think either way it's extremely unlikely, though. I think Legacy will just go on to be an extremely popular heel stable. The sky's the limit for those three, especially if they add DH Smith to the stable as has been suggested. Right now I'd put money on...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Well, it wouldn't be a direct heel-face transition for Orton. I would say it would have to involve him getting screwed out of winning the title somehow, in traditional Triple H fashion. It's pretty evident that Orton is going to win the title at Mania and send his popularity sky-high, but the...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    This would be an ideal opportunity to pull a WrestleMania XIII-style 'double turn', if you think about it. However, if they turn Orton face then they kind of have to turn Rhodes and DiBiase face too, and I don't think that'll happen. However, I do think Orton's popularity will be into the...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Just caught the ending to tonight's RAW, thankfully it looks like it should bring some heat back to the Orton-Triple H angle. Looking forward to this one again now. Nine matches set for WM, be surprised if we get any more now - from here on in it'll pretty much depend on match quality, as...

    Which makes it all the more remarkable that Liverpool were able to completely dominate that game. Fantastic performance.

    Yeah, don't get me wrong, I don't think Shelton would be a good choice for MITB - I think MVP or Christian should definitely get it - but I'm trying to find the positives in case he does. If Christian wins it, it'll be all kinds of awesome.

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    I've got an inkling of that, too. He lost his US Championship to MVP at this week's SmackDown tapings, which means MVP isn't likely to win it. Couple that with the fact that Vince doesn't like Christian and the fact that Vince has enjoyed surprising the IWC recently, it might happen. He'd...

    Wish I could be watching Sachin bat right now. Bet those who doubted him not so long ago feel rather stupid.

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    This is the crux of it, really. I'm just horribly, horribly disappointed. I'm also disappointed that the WWE made no on-air acknowledgement, not even a pre-show graphic, of the death of Andrew 'Test' Martin. Really wouldn't have been much trouble to go to, and it's hardly like that would have...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Yeah, they've absolutely ruined it. The build for Triple H-Orton has gotten ****ing ridiculous, the Triple Threat build is just as bad, Mysterio vs JBL is going to have virtually no build and will almost certainly be a poor match, and Jericho vs The Legends is, honest to God, probably the...
