Random Wrasslin' thoughts.....

I smile when a Blazin Squad reference is made in relation to Cody's finisher.

Meanwhile the WWE overall has over saturated their own product and have imo driven down the interest in it as a result. Who really cares about the matches on Super Showdown? and the current shows are building to that and as a result are far less must see than shows from times gone by, especially far less so in terms of must see live.

I think a lot of wrestling now is suffering with over saturation even outside WWE but the WWE itself is crippled with filler that is honestly a waste of everyone's time. Stuff like the pre-shows are a load of absolute bollocks tbh. Nobody can seriously be invested in 205 live or the mixed match challenge either.
I've said it before but I get the feeling most people in WWE are too comfortable, it reflects on the performance of people on-screen and off screen. They got their TV deal, the Saudi money and performers are happy picking up a cheque even if it means they are doing very little on screen or phoning in performances.
If WWE were under actual pressure those talents writing or working on the main roster would be working their asses off because people in "developmental" would be fighting for their spots but the talent down there are probably afraid to be brought up as a significant portion of call-ups have been failures on some level.

I wonder would Maria & Mike be added to the Miz & Maryse and Daniel & Brie feud.

Omackeral

I don't get the appeal of, nor have I ever gotten the appeal of, Mike Kanellis/Mike Bennett.

CastorTroy

The appeal is Maria.

Oh sweet Jesus. Please no.

Agent Coulson

Well it is a Total Bella/Diva feud as much as a Miz/Bryan one and Maria has heat with the Bella's.

J. Marston

Always liked Maria.

I'd say her and Mike are first on the list if there is going to be a batch of releases though.

Me neither...

Maria is great and I don't know enough about Mike to judge so would to see them get an opportunity.

But yeah, wouldn't be surprised if they're dropped at first chance. Then again in this day and age maybe they'll think twice about dropping a woman who only recently gave birth.

Mad to hear Taker out of character you know. Seems like a decent fella you know :pac:

sirmanga

The interviewer fella reacts to Taker's stories like you would when talking to a 9 year old who is telling you about a video game you have no interest in.

"No way.."
"Whaaat?"
"Oh wow. That's great!"

Was thinking Gerry and many other guys would now be jealous of Petey Williams

Fcuk it.....the Riott Squad are good in my book so they can do what they want! I think AJ Lee started that trend anyway.

The riot squad are two seasoned operators in ruby riot and sarah Logan and a younging liv Morgan.

Eh, maybe it's a friendship thing also. They seem close from social media stuff.

I like Ruby too. She won't get one with Ronda about but I think she's deserving of a big push on Raw.

Ah any match I've seen of ruby on raw she's a bloody good wrestler and Sarah logan is a brilliant wrestler and strong as **** as well. I think Liv Morgan will be a good wrestler as she takes a bump well which to me is as important as performing a move.

The cringe keeps coming.

Video of Undertaker arriving into the airport in Australia.
One fan calls 'Undertaker' before addressing him by the first half of his name, 'Under'. All the while another fan calls him 'Mark' followed by 'Markie'.

Ah, I don't think it's that cringeworthy. As someone already said, it could be a friendship thing as well.

No I don't think it's cringeworthy either. It's clear the three of them arent just in a group but are actual friends.

So a week after the all women PPV to highlight the women's division and how far they've come and to show they're equal to the men, we have the all men Crown Jewel.
Any chance that's not just a coincidence?

Do crowds still chant you tapped out? I haven't seen any matches for a while now and the last time I remember it was to HHH after he tapped to DB

I wish a crowd would chant that at McGregor!

sky88

is it just me or has new japan lost a little buzz since kenny became champion i mean there last 2 shows i didn't even realise were on till they happened. the one in america had no hype even though it was a good show and then theres one today that just seem to have popped up.

i dont know could be me, just doesnt seem to be much people talking about the shows before or after the shows as they were.
