1 was something I started watching on a Sunday morning with ma Dad when i was young and it seemed cool
2 when its good it explains itself really
3 I didn't have sky for a while and one night I saw Smackdown on in a pub and it peaked my interest again so came on Boards to see was there anything about it on here
4 even though I would classify myself as a wrestling dunce I'm not made to feel like that if I share an opinion and the off topic thread
5 Rugby I took it up recently and really like it
6 Kane Undertakers first feud always sticks in my memory
7 I used to be an archer and in the college circuit I was known as the man from Connemara seemed like a handy way for them to recognize me on boards

I got given a dodge wrestling figure when I was little Bone cold Steve Austin if i remember rightly

there are tons i like as they're one of the things I love about wrestling but the Mankind of the cell spot is crazy and is stand up worthy, my least favorite is hard I'd say I'll call it the ladder spot in ladder matches or money in the bank when someone runs up the ladder as soon as they can to be pushed of pulled down etc. I dont see the point of it in a logical sense beat the other guy/guys to hell first then go for the prize

Gummy Bear

What debut/run has disappointed the most after hearing so much about them or seeing promos?
Like I said when asking the others this question, Preferably not one of the WCW/ECW guys in the Invasion since they were pretty much fubar in comparison to what they were in their previous companies.

What WWE star do you think doesn't deserve the push they're getting and who do you think has a poor gimmick?

Who would you push and how would you push them?

Who that has left WWE would you a)like to see back and b)think will be back

Who from another promotion that you're aware of would you like to see in WWE?

Who's your favourite muppet?

Gimmick you hated at first but it really grew on you?

Best repackaging of a WWE Superstar? Outside the obvious ones like Austin and The Rock.

Did you like the Shawshank novella or did you read it?

Charisteas

My default questions -

Which wrestlers have you met in person and any interesting stories to tell?

Favourite bands?

How many countries have you been to?

Which country has the sexiest women?

How many wrestling shows have you been to?

nWo or DX?

Favourite xmas song?

Favourite place to go in Dublin?

Home and Away or Neighbours?

Any piercings and/or tattoos? Or future plans in this regard?

Do you lift weights or do any sports?

Ever had wrestling training?

Favourite actor?

Favourite actress?

Hottest Diva/Knockout ever?

1 the nexus i am really annoyed of what happened to them as a group it could have been a lot better than it was. It didn't create anything for the WWE its only now that some of them are becoming upper midcard wrestlers

2 Cesaro but thats only because there are others I would put a title on before him.
And Kofi Kingston as hes going no where hes fun to watch in ring and his feud with Orton was good and showed to me that he has the ability to push on, a manager might do him the world of good

3 Santino how you say?? He slowly gets annoyed of being ridiculed for being the comedy act till one day he snaps gets a weapon and starts attacking the person he's fighting, Ryder(his counterpart) runs out to stop him just to receive a chairshot to the head. He than comes out and starts making any WHC matches no contests by attacking anyone in them until he gets his shot.

4 Stone cold

5 Sting just so the Undertaker vs Sting match can happen

6 Beaker he is a youtube sensation

7 Zack Ryder dont know why

8 Undertakers american Badass, and Daniel Bryan hes able to pull anything of

9 I didn't read it

ok so Im going to change history to begin with and Ziggler has won the Rumble he wants the WWE title

John Cena wins EC for the no1 spot
Ziggler has cashed in after the EC so is now WHC champ going into Mania Del Rio has his rematch in a falls count anywhere match

Main Event
Fatal four way Punk Rock Cena Ziggler

Seamus Orton Ryback vs the Shield

HHH vs Lesnar

Del Rio vs Ziggler

Ladder match for the tag titles
Hell no vs Rhodes Scholars

Barrett vs Cesaro Champion vs Champion Match

ok so the line up now how it goes

Barrett vs Cesaro
Cesaro wins a quick match as he chases out Bo maddox after he interferes the past 2 months Bo is getting small wins over Barrett and he has getting beatdowns from Barrett

Rhodes Scholors win after Kane and Bryan finally snap at eachother

Delrio waits in the ring Ziggler comes down with Big E and AJ after 5-10 mins Big E takes over from Ziggler and takes out Del Rio (starts new Feud) on Zigglers behalf keeping him fresh for later on Ziggler Retains in a true showing of what Big E can do

Lesnar gets his win over HHH a good match Lesnar wins Clean as a monster heel

Seamus Orton Ryback vs the Shield

The shield win after an Orton Heel turn (hes got nothing to do with the Shield)

Main event
Before hand Vince comes out bans the Shield and Big E from coming near the ring
some good wrestling here some good spots finishers traded and lots of near falls with pull offs the works nearing the end Cena and Rock take each other out of contention Punk gets the GTS on Ziggler turns for the pin
BONG lights out BONG Undertaker in the middle of the ring Choke slam on Punk Ziggler gets up enough to throw an arm over Punk 1 2 3
your new Champion Dolph Ziggler

under taker turns at the top of the ramp mike in hand "Punk I heard enough of your winning streak theres only one streak that matters"

next day on RAW Ziggler brings out a new belt unifying the championships I want that to make the IC belt more important
Punk challenges Undertaker to his Mania match

1 Manchester United always have
2 The day I thought i broke a world record
3 I'd have to say Simpsons they have gone through Purple patches but they have had some of the best stuff
4 Vince Mcmahon that mans story would be unreal (and hit him up for a job)

What world record?

about 4-5 years ago me and a few others attempted to have the longest archery training session in aid of childline, we completed it but missed out on some Guinness rule that we the participants weren't aware of. The guinness contact didn't either. it was a mix up between archery safety rules and the Guinness safety rules, we were going from friday lunchtime to sunday night, was great to do we raised over 4 grand for Childline so it was worth it

Stereomaniac

How did you react when you realised that the Montreal Screwjob of world records had taken place?

connemara man

we were all gutted added to all the aches and pains but the money raised was worth it really

Diabhal Beag

Who would you rather marry: Joe Canning/Padraic Joyce/John Muldoon?

connemara man

Muldoon a mega Soldier
I think Joyce hung around/was kept to long (I have had many disagreements about this)
Canning well i nearly got pocked for saying he was good one night so I'm hedging my bets

also I know not really relavant to the question

Diabhal Beag

Much like the Amazon there's an answer buried deep in the bushes of that post :pac:

Would you have booked Rock differently in 2013, and if so how? (baring in mind his needing to agree to it)

connemara man

I am not happy with The Rock breaking Punks streak, I would like that to have been done by someone needing a boost to Main Event status,
I am also not happy with what will look like the Rock Cena v2 I wasn't pushed about it last time as I dont care about Cena's character.
but having said that I find it hard to book for him, but here goes. I would have left the screwey end at Rumble let Punk drop the title in EC in an EC match Rock comes in last when everyone else is wrecked clears house type of way as to protect him from the grueling match that it could be It keeps Rock safe from harm and Punk doesn't have to be pinned to lose the title if I remember correctly. Punk Then gets his rematch at mania to win back the Title Clean given that there is no way that the shield will be in any fit state to interferer after their Mania match. Its a bit loose but something like this would have made me happier to a degree

lebowskilite

hmmm... although Punk would have to be pinned to be eliminated in the ec. Maybe he could be injured and eliminated that way ala Jericho last year? (not a question I know)
