Makes sense considering how thin Smackdown is at the WWE/main event scene.

Was really apparent during the Team RAW vs Team Smackdown match at Survivor Series where Team RAW was just their Universal division plus Braun while Smackdown had to pull from their midcard (Corbin, Bray, Orton) and management (Shane) just to have a team.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Nakamura being on the same brand as AJ Styles, Dean Ambrose and John Cena makes a lot of sense, in a making me cum in my pants sort of way. But weren't reports saying he was going to be NXT forever? Yeah, right.

[Wishbone]

Nakamura on Smackdown should be amazing. I always felt that if they're gonna make two separate brands one should focus on appealing to the more "smarky" crowd.

[Cool King]

I think you're right.

Paige had a T-shirt too at the same time as AJ And Kaitlyn and I think Natalya did too, but I could be wrong there.

[Cool King]

I still have Kaitlyn's T-shirt but I don't wear it anymore as it'll just remind me of how much I miss her. :'(

[Cool King]

Nakamura on Smackdown should be amazing. I always felt that if they're gonna make two separate brands one should focus on appealing to the more "smarky" crowd.

I would like to see him on SmackDown as I'm not really all that familiar with him. From what I've seen of him though, I think SmackDown would be a better fit for him than Raw.

If he goes to Raw, he would most likely get lost and then forgotten about.

I don't know about the "smarky" crowd thing though, as "smarky" crowds tend to really annoy me at times.

I'm more saying that Smackdown should be the show that focuses more on in-ring stuff and has a roster of guys that would be more stereotypically called "IWC darlings." A roster with guys like AJ Styles, Nakamura, etc as champions. Honestly I'd like to see Smackdown eventually end up with Owens, Zayn, and a few others from RAW. Let RAW be the sports entertainment show while Smackdown is more of a wrestling show.

I dont care for Ty Dilleger either. I love Bobby Roode though. That guy is the next big thing.

[Vastardikai]

I have been on a bit of an Adrian Street kick as of late. Watching his old matches, listening to his music videos, etc.

I wonder why he isn't in consideration for one the greatest wrestlers of all time.

He could work. He could go from trying to grab his opponent's ass one second to the next wailing on them, and it made sense. He sold well. He could talk. He got immense heat.

Seriously, he may have had one of the greatest gimmicks of all time. Up there with the Undertaker in longevity. He literally understood every aspect of the wrestling business as well, if not better, than anyone. Wild out there entrances. He knew the song perfectly, because he wrote it. He made many of the outfits he wore to the ring, and he has made a living post wrestling making gear for others.

As for influence? He influenced many of the greats. From Bret Hart, to Randy Savage, to Davey Boy (Street's variation of the Cobra Clutch was called the British Bulldog), to Shawn Michaels, to Goldust.

If he didn't spend most of his career in the UK, he'd be discussed in the same breath as Ric Flair.

[Mr. Nerfect]

It's good you're going on an Adrian Street kick, but I think he's considered by most as pretty damn important to wrestling. Maybe not the "greatest ever," but if you were going to do a documentary series on professional wrestling's most influential and important figures, he'd deserve an episode, and I don't think you'd find too many that disagree.

[Emperor Smeat]

According to the WWE, the years between the Attitude Era and Modern/Cena/Reality Era is no longer called the Ruthless Aggression Era.

They now consider those years to be called the "Post-Monday Night War" Era as its official label. Also interesting is they now consider the Attitude Era to have ended a year earlier than everyone else accepts for its end year.

Was revealed in a recent survey the WWE sent out.

https://i.imgur.com/83dkmFN.jpg

[Cool King]

Well, if it's called the "Post-Monday Night War Era", then it makes sense for them take one year off of the "Attitude Era" and add it to that, as WCW died in 2001 and the Monday Night War ended because of it.

[Cool King]

Also, I preferred "The Ruthless Aggression Era" as that time period's name but I'm not really too fussed about the new name.

I think there's too many "eras" these days anyway. Ever since "The Attitude Era", every time period has been an "era".

[Cool King]

Also also, I notice that "The 80's Boom" makes no reference to Hulk Hogan, so I guess we can all assume that he's still not 100% back in the WWE's good books.

[Lock Jaw]

Says a lot about the "stagnation" of rassling that you have all these "eras" lasting 4-8 years, and the "modern era" is already approaching 12.....

Or maybe it doesn't

Drew Gulak's gimmick: He's obsessed with his boots

-Vignettes are shot in his one bedroom apartment in Philly where he wakes up, completely naked but only wearing his boots. Puts on his wrestling trunks and proceeds with his day.

-Another vignette of him making omlettes in his gear, sits at his kitchen table and eats his breakfast only wearing his boots and trunks.

-Next vignette, it's snowing in Philly, Drew goes out and shovels in his gear and his entrance robe.

-On RAW, a top CW heel knocks out Gulak, steals his boots off his feet. Gulak wakes up and is mortified.

-Eventually builds into a ladder match with Gulak's boots hanging up above and Gulak wrestles barefoot.

-I'm drunk TPWW, forgive me.

-Goodnite.

What did you guys think of the debut of Evan Douglas? I don't know how many here watched it, but do you think he will do well for himself? Will he boom or will he bust?


I think Evan Douglas has serious potential. I love the angle written for him where he is a referee-gone-wrestler. I don't recall if WWE ever done something like that, but it feels like a really creative storyline.


I hope they keep calling him "Ref Evan Douglas" even as he wrestles.


Whats everyones though on this?

Well first of all, i'm happy that the interviewer has the customary, new aged tramp stamp on her chest/shoulder. I would love to see what it says, but i'm guessing it was something about two b/f's ago. As far as Ref Evan Douglas. I think he has potential. Gunna need to tie those glasses on.

The tattoo is probably some "inspirational quote", like "never a failure, always a lesson" or "without struggle there is no progress" or "through every dark night, there is a brighter day" or some kind of crap like that anyway.

Am I the only person who was a huge fan of Bossman even through the attitude era? I alwaus wanted to see Bossman as a main eventer, even for a one off run instead of being in dumb programs like feeding Al Snow his dog.


Bossman just had something special about his presence.


Still disappointed he never managed to have a main event run.

i have a very serious question. I know there are a few aspiring pro wrestlers on here and i am wanting to start training. i really need advice on do's and don'ts , a good workout routine and wrestling school basics. Anyone willing to help me out here?

[RP]

You have to start in Backyard Wrestling. That's where you learn the basics.

[A.J.K]

I remembered that i have a friend who is in contact with Impact Pro Wrestling, i am going to see if he can help me out a bit, he did some training with Austin Aries. I want to have all the help i can get

[Droford]

You don't start out training with the greatest man that ever lived

[Vastardikai]

Seriously, find a reputable school. I'd go with Booker T and Stevie Ray's or Storm's school. Rick Baseman is a nice option, as well.

Local Indy Feds sometimes have schools, but be wary.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Does Taz still have his school? It was more of an advanced class training though. It was a finishing school.

[Rammsteinmad]

Yeah, find a decent school, avoid back yarders. Try to turn up in shape, but everyone is generally different anyway and you'll eventually develop the conditioning you need... unless you decide it's not for you. Just be respectful and willing to work hard.

[RP]

You just need knee pads, a tarp, lots of rope, a few trash cans and a friend with a backyard and you can start training right away.

[RP]

Ref Evan Douglas didnt get to where he is now by spending a fuckton of money to be trained by some idiot like Booker T.

Wacky Daniel Bryan story from back in the day:

"He used to do a thing where, like, he'll come up behind a guy and grab you by the hips and he's like, 'I'm dominating you! I'm dominating you!' Like, just holding your hips, but he would really latch onto your hips," Ryback started.

"So one day I'm walking and we're in Dallas [Texas]. I'll never forget it, Pat Patterson, is, like, standing against the wall. Daniel Bryan comes up and I don't see Pat because I'm walking and Pat's down a little [farther]. And Dan comes up behind me and grabs me by the hips and he goes, 'I got you!' And he did this to me all the time. And there [are] times when I'm like, 'get the fuck off' and other times I go along with it. So this time, like, I was in a good mood, and so I start giddying up down the hallway with him on my hips. Like, legitimately, slap the ass, giddy up, like, we go right by Pat Patterson and we get passed and we look and we stop and we both thought the same thing and looked."

Ryback concluded, "And Pat's just staring at both of us. And I turn around and laugh. I couldn't stop myself from laughing and I was thinking, 'for all the moments for that to fucking happen,' but Dan probably saw Pat from a distance and thought, 'oh, this will be fucking money'. He's good like that, so that to this day is one of my favorite moments with Dan."

I remember watching that Halloween Havok live when it aired and totally freaking out when Ric turned on Sting. The place was erupting waiting for Flair to get the hot tag and then BOOM, sucker punches Sting lol

[DAMN iNATOR]

Sooo she's a nobody then.

Well TBF, she is quite young...only 13, so she's still got her whole life to become famous if that is indeed something which she wishes to pursue.

When people say wins and losses don't matter in the WWE that's only half true. Losses matter, wins don't. Dean Ambrose beat the face of the company and a week after it happened it was never mentioned again.

Sticking a camera in your room and talking/singing to it and then uploading the video to YouTube doesn't mean you're famous.

Well, in my opinion anyway.

Was there a reason why LOD no-sold piledrivers?

[Mr. Nerfect]

Was that during the Hawk is on drugs angle? That's fucked.

[Emperor Smeat]

Maybe they inherited the Samoan trait of headbutss having no effect. Since a piledriver is a form of a headbutt with the mat, it wouldn't work.

Wish Flair had gone out of the turnbuckle and "flopped"......

[Vastardikai]

Was there a reason why LOD no-sold piledrivers?

It was Lawler's idea. He thought it would make them seem even more dangerous. This was back when Piledrivers were banned in Tennessee, because they were so dangerous. So the visual was this: "We just hit them with the most dangerous move in wrestling, and that didn't even slow them down. NOW WHAT?!?"

Apparently she's got nearly 2 million subscribers on Youtube and after some digging I found that most of her videos have upwards of a million views. I mean she's not movie star famous or anything, but I'd say that's a pretty big following. Hell, think of it this way. She's got more people watching her than 90% of the indy scene does.

That angle did provide an awesome quote though when Animal and Droz had a match and a drunken Hawk stumbled out, sat at the announce table and told JR and Lawler that he was there to do some color dysentery.

So has Orton actually officially joined the Wyatts?

I remember hearing about it and just assuming it was another Daniel Bryan/Wyatts or Orton/Authority thing where he joins just to turn face again. But it seems like this is a legit thing.

Also, is it good/watchable?

Looks like it's official. They won the tag titles together, and Luke Harper took a gore for Orton which prompted Orton to hand him the belt after he won it. I mean this is clearly leading to Orton turning on them, but it seems like they're actually slow burning toward it this time. As for whether or not it's watchable, well, it's current WWE, man... If you're not currently watching the product regularly like a moron then I'd say, no, it's not worth watching.

I've never bought the whole "this person has X-amount views and X-amount subscribers" thing as a way of measuring someones online success and status as a "celebrity".

For all we know, a good whack of those subscribers could be spam accounts and people's old accounts (or multiple old accounts) along with their new (or newest) accounts.

As for the views, I really doubt the number of views applies to each individual. If a video has a million views, I doubt exactly one million individuals watched that video. People watch videos more than once, which contributes the the view count each time one person watches the video again and again.

So all these numbers that get thrown around when "YouTube Celebrities" are spoken about mean nothing to me, as the number is most likely way smaller when in reference to individuals.

I don't know, I think it would all depend on who you talk to. For example, sports fans would probably know the random wrestler over a random little girl, whereas fans of pretty much anything mainstream (especially music), would probably know the little girl over the wrestler.

Gender comes into it too. I'd say more males would know the wrestler more and more females would know the little girl more.

As for Bieber, I think most of his "YouTube Success" can be put down to little girls who thought he was "hot" and "cute" because of his appearance and that he sang.

You give teenyboppers a "cute guy" and make him sing songs about being in love with them and how he would treat them if he was their boyfriend and you've got easy success and money.

It's like shooting fish in a barrel.

It wasn't a bad spot for a guest star..... if it was 2010 she would have 5 segments due to her hosting the show.

Yeah, true. It wasn't anything terrible.

I do wonder why she constantly kept looking up the hall to her right though.

I saw some guy just standing there in the background but he wasn't doing anything so he couldn't have been distracting her.

Gabriel Iglesias is his name. He's a relatively big (no that's not a pun because he's fat...) stand-up comedian. He even had a "movie" that was in theaters for a while. I say movie in quotation marks because it was really just him doing stand-up for an hour+. I'm thinking that maybe there's a much bigger disconnect between the U.S. and other countries when it comes to famous people than I initially thought thanks to our interactions, Cool King.

His name sounds familiar. I'm sure I came across him on the internet way back in 2009 or something.

Unless they're a big movie star, singer or a big name in a sport that's not American Football, Baseball or Basketball, I'm pretty sure anyone outside of North America will not have a clue who they are.

[Cool King]

I mean, I've got a pretty broad knowledge of pop culture, but these last 2 guests on SDL? Not a clue.

My knowledge of pop culture is "shockingly bad" these days.

It's probably because pop culture these days mostly consists of The Internet, but also the usuals like "must watch" TV shows and chart music and I really don't give a crap about any of those, so I'm "left behind" as a result.

I see all these young people on TV and I'm left wondering who the hell they are and the vast majority of the time, it turns out they're someone from "The Internet/YouTube".

As for the "must watch" TV shows like Game of Thrones, Walking Dead and so on, I really have no interest in those shows, so the actors/actresses in them are basically unknowns to me.

As for music, like your typical lovable old curmudgeon, I think all popular music is shit these days, so obviously I don't listen to it and these singers, much like the YouTube guys, are just random young people to me.

Oh, he's a bigger name than Dean Ambrose, but no one will watch because of him. It's an irrelevant crossover, just like the RAW Guest Star spots they used to do.

There's no chance of him interacting in any sort of meaningful way with anyone. Bring in a boxer or a sports star. Bring in someone that people might buy will have some interaction with talent.

That was basically nWo with better production values.

Which leads me to ask this:

Were we so dumb in the '90s that we just bought that the New World Order, that had "Trillionaire Ted" (DiBiase), Hulk Hogan, and Eric Bischoff as members, could only afford shit cameras and half assed editing for their segments?

If anything, the production values of their spots should have been better than WCW as a whole.

Remember buying some XFL merch back in the day although just a mini-footballs and a pack of XFL cards. Still have the cards but don't remember whatever happened to the football.

Who? Gabriel Iglesias. He's like second to Kevin Hart for current hot male standup comedians and is a fan.

Very debatable. I'd say he's 449th at best

I know people give hero shit for his weight but he's still one of the best. I'd be stoked to see him back in the WWE.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I absolutely love Chris Hero. One of the best all-rounders in the world today. Pair him with Cesaro and let The Kings of Wrestling rule.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I'd mark out if he attacked Kevin Owens for stealing his gimmick.

[Innovator]

I just want Kings of Wrestling against American Alpha

[Evil Vito]

Chris Hero going back is quite a shocker given he was supposedly let go for being out of shape.

But I'm happy for him. He's a great wrestler.

[Emperor Smeat]

Good for Hero but I'm going to assume whatever expectations or plans the WWE has for him is probably going to be low.

He has more value to NXT than he does for the main roster but could see him fill a Rhyno-like role for RAW/Samckdown.

I want to put my Storm Trooper in her Deathstar

[Mr. Nerfect]

I predict that Kassius Ohno will show up as Samoa Joe's opponent for Takeover, signed by William Regal to stop a pissed-off Joe's path of destruction. I imagine that he'll be an NXT lifer, in the Tye Dillinger role of making other people look pretty good and imparting knowledge, maybe even getting an NXT Title run or two, but maybe not ever getting anything more than a token run on the main roster, or a Royal Rumble spot/placement in a video game.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Honestly wouldn't be surprised to see Nick Dinsmore get a run as an active wrestler in NXT, doing something more similar to his "Mr. Wrestling" gimmick for basically the same reasons.

[Mr. Nerfect]

And with the WWE in "hiring mode" I don't know why The Spirit Squad won't officially be signed to contracts (although I think they would be better on RAW) and I don't see why they don't get Blue Pants back for the Women's Division in NXT.

[Fignuts]

Does Hero's diet still consist of Big Macs and Krispy Kreme?

[Evil Vito]

It sure looks that way.

Holy fuck Chris Hero. :(

Wouldn't look so bad if he wore attire similar to Kevin Owens, or how he use to wear it with the baggy pants and singlet top. But that... that's not even JBL-esque bulky muscle or anything... that's just a fat piece of shit in wrestling trunks.

Damn. :(

[slik]

Chris Hero will probably debut with a 'fat guy' gimmick I feel like...probably will have some Italian name, like 'Mario LaPasta'

Most of his/her news seems to be pretty accurate so far tbh. Scooped Meltzer/Keller on a few things it seems like.

Didn't he say Nakumara was being called up to SDL?

Wonder at what point when coming up with this spot did anyone bother to realize how dumb (and dangerous) it was.

Match itself had other spots just as bad with gifs courtesy of NeoGAF's wrestling thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=226424116&postcount=5741

The attire similar to Kevin Owens would be less confident than what he currently wears. Chris Hero is a real man who embraces his fatness.

Luke Harper's Twitter account is amazing.
