Also somehow a masked clown is AAA's most popular star now based on crowd reactions tonight.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at King Cuerno climbing the cage unopposed and instead of escaping to save his mask, he pulled a Snuka.

[Emperor Smeat]

La Parka is lucky he's wearing a crimson mask to hide his face since King Cuerno ripped off too much of his mask while this Mask vs Mask was still going on.

[Emperor Smeat]

Cuerno's mask is in such a bad shape, he's pretty much maskless right now.

[Emperor Smeat]

LOL at both guys pulling Eddie style cheating.

[Emperor Smeat]

Main event was pretty good overall. Last 5 minutes or so had a ton of shenanigans.

Makes sense Cuerno lost since LA Park refused to lose his mask in CMLL, would have been dumb to unmask Pentagon, and the Clown guy is way too popular to do the same.

Event itself was also pretty entertaining overall.

Are all those Scott Steiner promos supposed to be good in a “so bad that they’re good” way? Baecauae all that shit is god awful

Loved Smelly Meatball's running commentary here. I probably should have watched that thing.

Scott Steiner is my favourite bad promo. It's terrible, but I adore them.

I've decided to use my subscription to the WWE Network for more than just PPV's once a month, so I'm going to start watching Raw and SmackDown every Sunday, beginning from when WWF changed to WWE.

That way, I get more out of my subscription, I get a regular dose of nostalgia (I like nostalgia) and it also gives me something to do on Sundays, as Sundays are always insanely boring for me.

Anyway, to refresh my memory on what exactly was going on at that time, I've just watched the last Raw and SmackDown before the name change, so technically, the last WWF Raw and WWF SmackDown.

Some things I'll point out from those shows though:

• I must have forgotten that the last WWF Raw Main Event was a European Championship Match between Goldust and Spike Dudley, which Spike won and retained his title by doing so.

The last WWF SmackDown Main Event was an Undisputed Championship Match between Chris Jericho and Hulk Hogan, which Hogan won and retained his title by doing so.

If you want to look it another way, the Jericho/Hogan match was also the last WWF Main Event. There's also a pretty big contrast between those two main events.

• The opening vignette for SmackDown had sound effects added to Undertaker's attack on Hogan. The punches, kicks and every time Undertaker hit Hogan with Hogan's belt all had really cheap and corny sound effects.

• I had also forgotten about SmackDown's piped-in cheering or as some call it, "Seagull Pop/Cheering" or "Hairdryer Pop/Cheering".

I heard it and it all came screaming back to me. I couldn't un-hear it after that.

• Looking back on it now and through the eyes of an adult, Vince McMahon comes across as a creepy old man during his backstage segments with Stacy Keibler. In a way, it was kinda awkward to watch.

Speaking of all that kind of stuff, by watching both of those shows, you can see how much society has changed over the last fifteen years by the content of the shows and also what is written on the crowd signs. There's a few things that you "wouldn't get away with on television today" without a protest being launched about it on social media.

[DaveWadding]

TripleMania was insane and I'm not sure if I mean that in a good way.

[Emperor Smeat]

First half of the event was pretty great for quality matches while the later half was a very entertaining train wreck for quality.

Like when WWE hits train wreck status for events, its rarely entertaining and a lot more of a bore to watch.

[DaveWadding]

It was like 99 WCW trainwreck.

Fucking hell.

They're really going about it all wrong. You want to showcase how women's wrestling has evolved with an all women's PPV, you don't do that by putting women from the bimbo era who haven't wrestled in a decade, in singles matches.

Like I get you want past names in there for their marquee appeal, and because in their own way they contributed to where we are, but fuck's sake put them in a tag match. It would have the same effect, while allowing the women who are in their prime, and better in ring talents to face each other in matches that would truly put a nail in the coffin of the word "Diva".

It would kind of be smart, in a backwards sort of way, if Vince gave the women this stage to flop on so he can justify not going so hard with them and paying them much less than their male counterparts.

Women's Rumble had the same problem with too much of the focus going towards the Bellas and Divas era instead of being a celebration of all WWE women eras. Even Asuka's victory got quickly overshadowed by WWE's need to have Ronda's post-match debut be the main talking point.

Was speculated the only reason why McCool had a ton of eliminations was due to WWE wanting to appease Taker to guarantee he'd compete at Mania.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Women's Revolution, folks.

[Emperor Smeat]

It would kind of be smart, in a backwards sort of way, if Vince gave the women this stage to flop on so he can justify not going so hard with them and paying them much less than their male counterparts.

He sort of tried to do that with the Women's Hell in a Cell. Supposedly fought to get the match nixed and then fought tooth & nail to weaken its build and match quality. Somehow he still couldn't grasp at the idea of a women's match being the main event of a PPV and also be the main focus for a PPV build.

The only smart decision he had involving women's stuff in years was not wanting Total Divas stuff to dominate the division. The reasoning being you can only really focus on it while a season is airing and can't do long term plans since WWE didn't control the show itself. Became moot in the end because Nikki Bella kept complaining and got that restriction dropped.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I tried doing some research to find out how many tickets are available for the WWE's Australian show. I can't imagine the product being hotter, but they are a juggernaut and they are kind of low-key promoting this like an Australian WrestleMania in media you do have to seek out to find, but still.

The card looks absolutely awful:

* Triple H vs. The Undertaker (with Shawn Michaels to be announced as referee, I'm sure)
* John Cena and Bobby Lashley vs. Jinder Mahal and Elias (Jinder is advertised as Kevin Owens in some sources -- got no clue what is going on there)
* The Shield vs. TBA (rumored to be Braun, Dolph and Drew)
* Ronda Rousey & The Bella Twins vs. The Riott Squad
* Daniel Bryan vs. The Miz in a #1 Contender's Match

The Iconics are also being advertised. I imagine that they are also going to do Buddy Murphy winning the Cruiserweight Title and throw Rhea Ripley and/or Toni Storm onto the card.

Tickets are insanely priced. $1,400 for ringside. They appear to still be available.

It's also very cute that Triple H has found his way into another record audience for WWE. He has nothing to do with them selling out, but he'll find a way to main event WrestleMania 32, the Australian show and whatever other records they are going for soon. He did try the India one too, but that was a flop.

[Big Vic]

So many PPVs

[Mr. Nerfect]

I’ve joked about it either here or elsewhere, but if the talk of The Rock coming back to work Mania is true, there is no way I can see “all the records” Triple H sitting back and letting Rock notably increase their subs. So what can H do to get himself in the convo during the shareholders meeting. I wonder why Shawn Michaels is getting involved in this Undertaker stuff? Why has Triple H babyfaced himself?

My prediction: Taker beats HHH in Australia. Taker does a big exit as he is one to do. Triple H and HBK hug. DX music hits. Aww. Cue Triple H heel turn. At some point, Shawn Michaels is advertised as having a face-to-face with Taker because he wants his permission to fight Triple H. “Shawn, normally I’d have three words for you: Rest In Peace. But I’ve got another three...” “Please let them be: Are You Ready?” “No, Shawn...kick his ass!”

Shawn then enters the Royal Rumble and tries to use the match to challenge Hunter. After Michaels cleans house and the crowd is going nuts, The Rock comes out. The two have a moment and Shawn sells like crazy for Rock. Heels interrupt and they get tossed out. HBK ends up hitting a sneaky Sweet Chin Music on Rock. A heel lays out Michaels. Another heel takes that heel out. HBK and Rock are prone in the ring. Double kip up. Place explodes. Another heel probably eliminates HBK. Maybe even HHH. Rock wins the Rumble.

When the quarter network numbers are huge, HHH can say “We had returning stars like The Rock and Shawn Michaels, and matches like Rock vs. Roman Reigns and Shawn Michaels vs. Triple H.”

[Mr. Nerfect]

Doing an angle at Australia’s biggest show is a great way to make it “worth it” for the fans that go, even though they may not try it again for a while. It sends the message that you can’t think of these as house shows. Next time WWE tried to sell out such a big building, you better go, just in case...

[slik]

I think if Rock wrestles at WM it will be against either HHH or a safe heel worker, like Miz.

I don't see them doing Roman vs Rock b/c Rock won't come back to lose a match and Roman shouldn't be losing to part-timers if he is 'their guy'. I think HBK is legit done (but your idea sounds good Noid).

[slik]

Weird that Becky and Braun are now evil, heinous heels

Still kanefused why Bobby Roode is a face tbh

[slik]

If u think about it, since KO has been 'written off' tv for the time being the only top heels on RAW are:

Dolph Ziggler
Baron Corbin
Drew McIntyre (I'm ok w/ this)
Braun Strowman

[Big Vic]

Push Mojo

[Danny Electric]

I think Baron is going to lose the MITB suitcase or try and cash it in himself or something stupid like that.

Also turning Braun ‘heel’ still isn’t going to make people cheer Roman and will go down the same route with Braun as before where he will end up beating up his partners.

[slik]

In some ways the heel/face line is blurring and in some ways there are clear-cut heels and faces.

It's HHH's influence slowly shifting in (I think). When you watch NXT of course there are 'heels' and 'faces' but the crowd still cheers a Adam Cole or Ciampa regardless. I think eventually the main roster will be like that as HHH's influence grows. Instead what we have right now is murky/not-cohesive booking where it sometimes seems like Vince is drunk when making decisions.

According to Fightful.com's Sean Ross Sapp, Creative and WWE management are once again pissed at Vince due to his constant meddling with plans and booking. A lot of frustration towards them not being able to do any meaningful or long term improvements due to Vince's antics.

Also seems to go beyond just management this time as wrestlers themselves have also grown tired of his meddling.

[slik]

Interesting

[Emperor Smeat]

Sapp also revealed how Fightful.com keeps managing to get the weekly scripts for RAW and pretty much hinted its due to Vince not being that aware of the website and WWE doesn't have an idea of who could be the possible leaker.

Think last time WWE had a major leak occur at this level, they managed to find out by sending fake scripts to writers and/or "bugged" some laptops to weed out the leaker. Harder to do this time since its the final script that is getting leaked.

According to Post Wrestling's John Pollock, WWE recently changed their plans for the Becky-Charlotte feud due to the storyline's bad reception.

Tossed out the typical face/heel dynamic and instead its now just two ex-friends who have valid arguments to back up their actions but neither is the actual heel of the feud. Instead of an actual heel turn for Becky, its going to be more Austin-like in terms of anti-hero direction.

[ClockShot]

Well, that's a smart idea.

Within 24 hours Vince will step in and say it sucks and continue to push Charlotte to the moon.

Typical face/heel dynamic hasn't applied to the Women's Division in forever. This company sees women as "catty shrews that can't get along"

[Emperor Smeat]

I'm just surprised they actually realized their plans were never going to work and did the smart thing of not dragging their feet on the issue.

Also makes a ton of sense to abort the Becky heel turn since there are rumors of a monster heel turn being in the works for Asuka and Becky's turn wasn't going to change those plans.

[Bad News Gertner]

Yeah that's not a very WWE thing to do.

Okay, but:

* The typical face/heel dynamic is going to exist. Because now people love Becky and hate Charlotte.

* That would be really good for Becky. This was not supposed to be about Becky. I'm skeptical that they would change that.

* As I've said, the biggest loser in this, assuming that they don't just flat-out punish Becky for "sucking at her job" or something, is Charlotte. Because she no longer feels special. She feels like the female Roman Reigns. She feels secondary to Becky and Reigns in that sense now. You can't just un-fuck things.

If Charlotte gets the match against Ronda at WrestleMania now, fans are going to be far more obsessed about Charlotte getting the push than the drama of the match itself. WWE has fucked this potentially special event. It's all about who is getting the push now, and if WWE decides it's Charlotte, the fans are going to revolt.

No one is going to line up for Charlotte anymore. No one is going to give a shit about her going forward. Her "star power" has been completely rejected by this. No one is going to accept her as the top woman in WWE, maybe not ever again. Don't worry, she'll be around and jammed into an unnatural position, but it is unnatural because the company have fucked it.

It also doesn't undercut that this company was stupid enough to a) think it would work, and b) risk it even thinking it would work.

I see what you did there, Noid. It was super adorable. I felt warm and fuzzy inside.

Did you jack off over it?

Of course not. Why would you say such a thing, Noid? My "jack off" sessions are reserved for when Dave rates Kenny Omega's matches.

Because you're a creepy fucker.

lol This is so random. Did I miss something between Noid and Dave?

It'd be cool to meet the young bucks and all. But I would not spend any amount of money on them unless it was to watch them wrestle or if I really loved a piece of merchandise.

I don't need to spend "personal" time with Matt and Nick Jackson.

Think Godfather once mentioned how he was set to get a big contract from WCW because they wanted him as one of the early members of the nWo. Virgil somehow found out and hustled his way into getting a deal and the nWo spot for way less money than Godfather was going to get.

Had to walk through the convention to get out of the hotel this morning and you are too late my friend.




Let's be real, All In is going to stink. A Reddit PSA isn't going to change that. Some people just don't care. They'll show up in a jizz-stained Bullet Club t-shirt, with food in their beard.




Yeah, the fucking irony in wrestling fans trying to preach about hygiene and then saying "showers literally takes 2 minutes"


Went to a con a few years ago with an ex and we went up to a booth where the woman working leaned up to us and said “you’re the first ones who have come here all day who don’t stink, so thank you”




The fact that this has to be posted every single time there is a huge indie show or gathering is just sad.

My take on the bumping Izzy thing... not for me, very risky and not worth the reward. I feel the same about Omega or The Bucks wrestling kids too but for some reason I feel this bumping Izzy is even worse.

[Bad News Gertner]

Watching a 1986 June 27th Boston Garden show this morning

Typical shit WWF undercard

Haku vs Pete Doherty
Hatley Race vs Tony Atlas (would have been an awesome match in 1980)
Tiger Cheung Lee and Les Thornton vs Dan Spivey and Mike Rotunda
Moondog Spot vs Pedro Morales
Billy Jack Haynes vs Moondog Rex

Things are finally picking up with Steamboat vs Jake in a decent match and Hogan vs Savage for the WWF Title in a great match. Final matches were Bundy vs Jyd and Orndorff vs Muraco in a much better match than their Wrestlemania 2 match .

Pretty meh show.

[Jordan]

It's really easy to fall asleep to those old WWF cards. I usually never make it to the main event.

[Bad News Gertner]

Lol oh God, I love them. It's mostly all I watch. When they stop having shitty undercard in 1987 they lose their charm

[Jordan]

BTW on the smell of the general wrestling fan. I'm certain that the washing of clothes is right up there with the act of personal bathing. I often smell BO sure but mostly it's just the smell of dirty clothes that wafts unto my nostrils that sends me reeling.

[Lock Jaw]

My take on the bumping Izzy thing... not for me, very risky and not worth the reward. I feel the same about Omega or The Bucks wrestling kids too but for some reason I feel this bumping Izzy is even worse.

I mean, if Izzy legit wants to be a pro rassler when she grows up, all this is great for her.

[Evil Vito]

Kinda warms my heart to see Cena wrestling. Only his second match since Mania. He is missed.

[Cool King]

I've just finished watching the first Raw and SmackDown since the change from WWF to WWE as I menationed last week, I'll be watching Raw and SmackDown from then to make my Sunday's less boring.

Raw:

• Either I don't remember this because I was a kid at the time or it was edited out when it was shown in the UK but I don't remember there being so much strong swearing.

I remember the usual "ass" "son of a bitch" and so on but on Raw, I don't remember Ric Flair saying "Tough Shit" to the nWo and Regal calling Spike a "shitehawk" (which by the way, I found hilarious).

• Another thing that humoured me was everyone tripping over the new name.

• To this day, the Booker T & Goldust skits are still fantastic and I don't think they'll come a day where they're not.

• I've realised that Ric Flair's office is more "authentic" than what you get now, as it doesn't have WWE related posters plastered all over the place and a big screen with the Raw logo on it with red lights everywhere.

It makes every week just that little bit different and realistic compared to Raw now where every week, Kurt Angle looks to be in the exact same room week in and week out.

• I've also realised that the backstage segments come across as being more "believable" as they have wrestlers in the same area but not necessarily interacting with each other as was shown with Undertaker & nWo and later Undertaker & Kevin Nash.

• Planet Stasiak got a lot of TV time back then. I do like a bit of Stasiak every now and then.

• I don't really remember the WWE's tagline being "World Wrestling Entertainent: New Look, Same Attitude".

• I forgot that this was the episode of Raw where Hogan botched riding Undertaker's motorcycle and much like I mentioned before, I don't remember Hogan constantly saying "shit" during his backstage segment with Undertaker's motorcycle.

For some reason, they censored Hogan saying "shit" but not Flair and Regal.

• There was a great example of Lawler's quick wit during the swimsuit competition between Molly Holly and Terri.

Molly (to Terri): You're dressed like a stripper! You might aswell put a pole in the middle of the ring.

Lawler: Wait a minute, I can find a pole alright!

That joke went right over my head as a kid.

• For me, I think a two man announce team is better and easier to listen to as you don't have one guy constantly shouting abuse to another like you do with a three man team.

Example's being JBL and Graves shouting abuse to Saxton almost constantly and sometimes Coachman.

SmackDown:

• There's a moment during the opening segment where Tazz says something on commentary, then there's about three seconds of silence and then he speaks again, but he sounds completely different which makes me think Tazz was brought into WWE HQ after SmackDown to either record new dialogue or re-record some lines.

• I wasn't expecting to hear Michael Cole & Tazz take shots at The World Wildlife Fund because of the name change.

It was obvious it was ordered from Vince.

• I forgot that D-Von holds a singles victory over Triple H in singles action.

• I'm sure they used a some kind of royalty free sound effect of a bell ringing to start off the Orton/Storm match.

• Finally, a sign during Jericho's entrance that is one of many wrestling signs showing bad grammar:

Planet Stasiak is the greatest. One of my favourite gimmicks.

Didn't they have a 15 minute Hardcore Title Scramble match or something to start Raw so Lillian Garcia could say "World Wrestling Entertainment or WWE" over and over again?

[Cool King]

Yeah, they did exactly that.

lol I feel like this is a jab at Roman Reigns. Ridiculous superhero "charge up" and then... punch.

[Bad News Gertner]

Yeah, they did exactly that.

Lol that's tremendous

[mike adamle]

How come no one is talking about this gem? Vampiro thinks his headset is off and is screaming for "his fucking music" to be played at Triplemania. LOL at Matt Striker covering for him and his unprofessionalism by calling him the ultimate professional who waits for his cue.

[Simple Fan]

Kind of feel sorry for Striker after that show. Dude was in the dark on most things and Vampiro was very vague with his translations. Vamp also left commentary many time throughout the show to talk to fans and other things.

[Emperor Smeat]

WWE recently filed to trademark the "Work Horse Open Challenge" name. This was a phrase used by WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns on Monday's RAW.

This would fit Rollins way better than Reigns. Like everything involving Reigns booking, this is just going to feel forced than organic/genuine. WWE still hasn't learned from their mistakes with Cena.

Also a bit funny when you think about it on how WWE purposely trashed the prestige of the Universal belt and Lesnar as champ just to find another desperate way to get Reigns over with crowds as a face.

:rofl:

It was the English feed, nobody cared. I thought as they show went on they just got worse and worse. Biggest problem was not acknowledging the story with the heel ref. This moment was pretty damn funny. Vamp was right though, they aren't on cue at all.

[Jordan]

I think it was just a Bruce Lee tribute because they were in Shanghai and he as no body fat and looks ripped like Bruce Lee.

If they use an open challenge angle for Roman they are just doing it because that was the point where people stopped die hard hating Cena because he started having great matches ever week on tv. Not a bad plan if they can pull off quality matches, Roman is fully capable of that.

[Jordan]

But yes it would make more sense for Seth.

Problem is they already tried this tactic before with Reigns and the end result was them not changing their booking of him afterwards.

All this prestige building and "work horse" stuff is just going to get tossed away once WWE wants to move on to the next big thing for Reigns. Just like they did with the IC belt for Reigns and US belt with Cena both times.

[Mr. Nerfect]

There is a very specific type of fan that is interested in the concept of the Evolution PPV. These matches seem completely tone-deaf to that fan's taste. I will say that it is probably going to be more interesting to see how the crowd reacts to Ruby Riott vs. Kelly Kelly than a decently booked show.

Lol Undisputed Era at 10. This is about as bad a WWE list as they've ever posted.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

The New Day ahead of the hart foundation and the Shield #1. Good god.

[Jordan]

It's funny that the three stables that should be considered greatest of all time both had prolonged runs that ruined the initial genius of their booking. The Horsemen, NWO and DX. I think that the Shield takes the cake as far as match quality though. That first year or so when they were having magic 6 man's all over the place was insane. I wouldn't put them in the top 3 but I'd have them in my top 10. I don't consider The Freebirds and New Day a "faction".

[Bad News Gertner]

To me a faction is 4 or more people.

[Evil Vito]

I don't even know how the Nexus made that list. The group started off hot but they were killed dead within two months. They never recovered after being Super Cena'd at SummerSlam.

[Evil Vito]

Much as I loved the initial Nexus angle though, if you really break down the group with some objectivity, it was probably never going to succeed long-term. Wade Barrett and Skip Sheffield were the only two guys in that group who had any real chance to achieve stardom in that group, and the latter shattered his ankle two months in.

I've LOVED Heath Slater since pretty much 2012, once he dedicated himself to becoming a comedy dude, he's gold. But he looked fucking ridiculous having to act all serious as a heel.

Darren Young was another guy who looked ridiculous trying to act serious, and he wasn't all that good in the ring to boot.

Justin Gabriel was cool, but at his size there was only so far he was going to go. Nowadays there are dozens of guys who can do what he does better than him.

Michael Tarver at least had an imposing look, but could've never been anything more than a bodyguard type.

David Otunga is the double whammy - looked absurd playing a serious heel and also one of the worst wrestlers I've ever seen.

[Bad News Gertner]

I'm shocked they left the Corporation off the list

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

I'm shocked they left the Corporation off the list

Probably because it took one minute to make and thirty seconds to think up.

[Evil Vito]

It's actually kind of a shock to me that Ryback was allowed to wear a singlet. I'm 100% certain Vince has jacked off to a picture of Skip Sheffield.

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/prowrestling/images/d/d5/Skip_Sheffield.1.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20110525105239

[Bad News Gertner]

Hell, I'd put Camp Cornette in over at least two of those listed

[Simple Fan]

To me a faction is 4 or more people.

Same, I don't see New Day and The Shield as a faction.

[Bad News Gertner]

Just realized: no Nation of Domination.

[Jordan]

To me a faction is 4 or more people.

I generally agree but I consider Shield a faction where as I don't with The Freebirds and The New Day. Reason I think that way is because they weren't really focused as a tag team but as a trio.

For me my all time stables...

10. Los Boriquas
9. Evolution
8. Shield
7. The Corporation
6. Nation of Domination
5. Hart Foundation
4. Bullet Club
3. NWO
2. DX
1. Horsemen

[erickman]

Same, I don't see New Day and The Shield as a faction.

or the freebirds

[Simple Fan]

Yeah they're just six man tag teams.

The Freebirds were pretty much focused as a trio feuding with David, Kevin and Kerry Von Erich, who if they are including the Freebirds, than its ridiculous not to have the Von Erich's too

[Fignuts]

The New Day ahead of the hart foundation and the Shield #1. Good god.

I don't think the New Day being ahead of the Hart Foundation is weird at all. They're probably the only modern faction that deserves to be on the list

They've had a much bigger impact than the Hart Foundation, and overall, their in ring work is better.

hard to argue this. I remember when the three of them were just beginning and between the choir singing their theme song and the way they portrayed themselves in their entrance and how they were booked, I never thought in a million years they would be in the position they are today

[Jordan]

The Freebirds were pretty much focused as a trio feuding with David, Kevin and Kerry Von Erich, who if they are including the Freebirds, than its ridiculous not to have the Von Erich's too

As much as I love to go back and enjoy rasslin' history World Class is tough for me, at least what's on The Network. I've never really gotten into Texas Rasslin so my exposure to The Birds and the Von Erich's is slightly more than introductory.

[Emperor Smeat]

Only post-Attitude Era group I'd keep on that factions list would be Evolution.

Undisputed Era have been great in NXT but means nothing since they haven't been hit with main roster Creative treatment.

Nexus started off hot but fizzled really quickly as a group. Same for New Nexus and Corre never living up to their potential as factions.

New Day shouldn't belong since they are just a tag team albeit with 3 guys. Same could be said of the Freebirds.

The Shield shouldn't count similar to New Day and Freebirds due to them lacking numbers. Plus their first run as a group was really short even though it was also very good overall.

[Anybody Thrilla]

You'd better hope DOA doesn't see that list.

[Jordan]

I think it's fair to say Roman counts as two whole men or at least a man and a big dog. Right?

[#1-norm-fan]

Holy fucking shit @ that list. lol

[#1-norm-fan]

If that list were made a couple years ago, I have no doubt The League of Nations would have been top 5.

[#1-norm-fan]

If it were made in 2010, The Nexus would have been the clear #1.

[Emperor Smeat]

Strangest rumor going around the net teases at the idea of Neville signing a new deal with the WWE soon.

Basis of the rumor is Neville not appearing at All In after the quick tease by the Young Bucks and Neville being seen in Pittsburgh which is where WWE holds their medicals for talent.

The idea being that its been a long time since Neville last wrestled and WWE requires medicals to be done before new contracts are made official. Also the idea of WWE settling all the pay-related issues Neville had before (ex. merch, pay increase from 205 level, etc).

It's so overdone everywhere. Should be a desperation move not something you do every time a person is outside the ring. Dives/planchas rarely look believable anymore. Finn does them well.

:lol: at the location for Miz's first date with Maryse being the parking lot of a porn shop.

Maryse wouldn't win the Diva Search, but she was signed to a WWE contract. While traveling on the road, Miz would often ask Maryse out to group dinners, but she would brush him off. Thus, he decided to do something a little riskier to show his interest.

"We're in Kansas City, and it's two in the morning," said Maryse. "I'm trying to get back to my hotel, and you call me on my phone [while you were driving nearby]. You said, 'Pull over, pull over!' I kind of found myself in a parking lot of a porn shop."

"You might think this is a little weird," said Miz, "but I didn't want to get in the friend zone. I wanted her to know where my mind was at. But it worked, all right. We sat there in the parking lot and talked for three hours, with a person that doesn't speak English. That's an A-plus in my book as a first date."

Apparently the attendance at this week's Smackdown and 205 Live were not good at all. Managed to only get around 6k fans for the show and around 1500 stayed for 205 Live.

My buddy Jim said there were people chanting for refunds and shit non stop. So that was clearly edited out.

There was also like no one there superstar wise. On top of that, it was the first day of school, so that eliminated a chunk of the crowd too
