Random Wrasslin' thoughts.....

gimmick

So this is a thread for your musings which do not deserve an entire thread of its own.

For example

I just watched Card Subject To Change. Horrific to think that since its been made the following has happened -

Kamala has become an amputee

Sensational Sherrie, Paul Bearer and Trent Acid are dead

Had Kevin Sullivan and Nancy stayed together one of Wrestlings darkest moments would be completely different or never would have happened.

Lacey Von Erich almost became a diva. She is also crazy hot. Pure nom.

I also mused that even while Sherri was a dispicable heel while she was on tv she may well have been my first celeb crush.

All this in one lazy evening.

Drunken retort, sounds plausible. If Heyman turns heel, that's the way to go if ya ask me. Snooker's Rollins push for the title though.

CastorTroy

Wouldn't that mean Roman turning heel?
Keep forgetting Summerslam is on this weekend, which means Takeover to watch on Sunday when I get up

Ambrose turns on rollins and later costs reigns as well and aligns with heyman is the way i would do it

I'm responding to my utterly stupid thought from last night about trips. I just rewatched the main event from Mania 17 and good Jesus it's magic. The ending austin himself felt he should have hit a stunner on Vince at the end, but the two lads were clearly the correct call on all counts.

Man that Jerry Lawler podcast about his son was hard to listen to.

At the end when says 'if you have kids, tell them that you love them because I didn't do that enough with Brian."

Tears welled up in my eyes when he said that in a quiver.

Takes a big man to admit when he got it wrong!

The other thing is Triple H and Taker had a really nice match on that show that would've been lost as well so defo for the best.

Even though it was whitewashed when they went again at Mania!

Monokne

What was whitewashed? I don't know what you're talking about. Undertaker & Triple H first met at Wrestlemania 27, as I recall.

I don’t know what you’re talking about. As WM 27 was more than 3 months ago I have no memory of that or any coherent storylines.

Thoughts of a Wrestling Fan #1: Wanting to watch SummerSlam the night it airs, only to find out that your subscription lapsed 2 weeks ago and WWE never emailing you a confirmation message.

It usually auto renews for me? Was under the impression you have to actually cancel it yourself.

Blaming the fans kinda passive aggressively for them not being on TV when they haven't half a personality between the two of them.

leggo

They’re not blaming, they’re working. They’re putting out social media content they hope will act as inspiration for fans to start chanting for them and raise their profile, which is what everyone in their position should be doing whether it works or not.

I forgot clean about them, to be honest.

I suspect there are ways around this

There was a time where you'd think they are the type that should save their money as they won't be resigned but WWE are stockpiling so they will probably stay.
Need to move on from the club shtick as Vince ain't interested in pushing something he doesn't feel he created. It's 3 years since they were doing that, time to move on but saying nerds! ain't clever either.

Charlotte really needs to stop doing the corkscrew moonsault, every time she does it its coming off worse.

Extreme Rules 2018, Main Event: Dolph Ziggler vs Seth Rollins

Five weeks later...

SummerSlam 2018, Opening Match: Dolph Ziggler vs Seth Rollins

Anything like that happen before? The main event of one PPV is literally the next PPV's opening match?

CowGoesMoo100

Does anybody else absolutely cringe at the sight of grown men holding replica belts in the crowd? I know you could argue it's no different to wearing a particular wrestler's tee,which seems acceptable, but, I don't know. To me, it just seems embarrassing. It's guys like this that make me feel ashamed to admit I follow wrestling for fear of people seeing these dudes holding belts and thinking that,because I follow wrestling, I do something similar. Just something I noticed quite a lot over the weekend at both Takeover and Summerslam. Rant over.

DrumSteve

I still mark out a little bit when a wrestlers music is playing as they clear house in the ring for instance New Jack or Sabu back in the day.

So after the OTT show at the weekend and being there to see Devlin WALTER live and seeing the reaction of a few people to say it was the greatest match they've ever seen live, I was wondering what people consider to be the greatest match they've ever seen live, and what made it so great?

The Devlin WALTER match is probably quite easily the best for me because it was a great match with a great build, and an atmosphere that really made it special. Though I've only ever been to WWE house shows and OTT shows, and have never attended a show outside of Dublin.

Cherry_Cola

I have a few that are memorable.

First one, and I was so lucky to be there for it is Okada/Shibata from Sakura Genesis! I have the program and my ticket framed at home.

Osprey/Dunne/Smile from the Father Ted themed OTT show was outstanding. Brought two non-wrestling fans and they were blown away!

I love deathmatches and yes I'm in the minority, but Jun Kasai vs Masada - Gusset Plate Deathmatch from CZW @Wrestlecon 2013. A great story told in the match, but the sight of Jun Kasai coming up from the drop toe hold into the gusset plates was something to behold. A good chunk of people left right away as the blood was just too much. It was epic though!

Smiling Finn and Eugene would be the perfect tag team.

I've not been to that much live wrestling but the one that comes to mind immediately is Ryan Smile vs Marty Scurll at Wrestlecon. I was really looking forward to seeing Marty for the first time and he didn't disappoint.

The other is probably Cena vs Ziggler at a Dublin house show a while back which was really entertaining.

The best match I have seen live was the ***** AJ Styles V Chris Daniels V Samoa Joe match for the X Division title at Unbreakable in September 2005, which is still the only TNA match Meltzer ever gave 5* too. It was just an incredible spectacle, filled with extraordinary and groundbreaking spots & near falls.

From a spectacle perspective, the top matches at Wrestlemania 28 - Taker/HHH in the Cell, Rock/Cena 1, and the HBK-Undertaker match at Wrestlemania 26 were incredible as well.

Matt Riddle V Mike Baily..... guys kicked the feck out of each other, the video doesnt do it justice as each hit echoed throughout the arena.

Also seeing Aj Styles v Kurt Angle at TNA's first show in Ireland was mind blowing!
