Battleground Thread
 

Should be a good show, yeah?

Is it really common knowledge?

My buddy just procured tickets to tonight's Jack White concert. I feel bad about missing Battleground, but I have to see Jack White. Is it available to stream on the network right after it's over?

are stardust and goldust slated to do anything tonight?

Are you the pornstar, Tommy Gunn?

I'm half between this and video games....just because of the Fatal 4 Way.

maybe the Big Show will come out and knock out everyone in the Fatal Fourway

Weird. Battleground was in October last year. Why the change?

Looks like I'll be hanging with you guys tonight for this. I think it'll be a good show.

Last year they had more time between Wrestlemania and Extreme Rules than this year. Money in the Bank usually is in July but it was the last week of June this year so they had no July PPV. They had two PPVs in June instead of two in October.

also, LOL this NXT promo, its only about 3 months behind.

All right, coming to deliver fantastic news for some of you.

Tatanka will go on the warpath during the Fatal fourway then.

Have literally no interest in this PPV. What matches should I look forward to here?

And major UGH @ Adam Rose vs Fandango... possibly my least favourite two wrestlers on the roster right now

stop being so negative

WWE has given up doing special sets for the PPVs...stupid budget cuts

I'd be more upset about Josh Matthews being gone if Renee Young didn't replace him as host...

The battle royal might be fun, and Ambrose/Rollins should be good. Also, Rusev/Swagger might be interesting.

Funk is gonna splode...funk is gonna splode..

i'm interested to see all of it except for the preshow which i will watch anyway.

LOL Booker T..."Handsome?"

2 matches in 25 minutes PLUS ppv hype stuff..

might be trying to hard on the preshow

Layla and Summer should be dressed up in constumes

Even the bunny looks cheaper.

Sorry, too busy focusing on Layla jiggling.

Bo dallas should be running around the ring as well

Also, Fandango should have won via DQ due to those slaps.

Quick and pointless

Went to piss, came back and it was over....

Sandow should rip off the face lookalike mask to reveal it was really Sandango that he beat.

Definitely a new bunny. A new, shitty-looking bunny.

well that was great. very glad they added it. worthwhile.

It would make more sense if Ambrose let Rollins cash in and start the match, only to interfere and get somebody DQed to where the title doesn't change hands.

Ohhhh yeah, forgot about Jericho/Wyatt. That tag match will be titties, too.

cant wait for tomorrow night

Jeriusos vs the Wyatts

USOs breaking up lol

that's gonna work out

I get the feeling this won't be quite the surprise that Wee-LC was.

#girlbye

Wonder if Naomi keeps the theme.

Naomi with the sparky plugg themed ring attire

Both of these outfits are making me ill.

Why the fuck was Sandow replaced with Fandango!?

Johnny Curtis remains a comedy jobber and an afterthought. I had such hope after the "biggest upset in WrestleMania history." WWE hates money.

i keep thinking of this

Evening all, everyone ready for LOLCENAWINS?

I called for Fandango to get eliminated from the battle royal first if Damien sandow gets eliminated first that's going to piss me off.

Fuck, this is going to continue?

This match should totally go like 10 minutes, and they end up going 'WERE OUT OF TIME!'

Very ready. I'm only in this thread for the Owen Brown posts.

well that was awful

Yes bobbo, go enjoy Jack White

that would only make sense in wwe world if a face cashed in and a heel caused the dq

of course alex riley would pick heath slater

I picked Kofi and Bo Dallas as the last two in the Battle Royal

lol Heath Slaters going to win says Alex Riley

Can't wait for the battle royal. I BOlieve that it will be entertaining

Wooo, live tweeting the PPV!

<font color=goldenrod>Not sure why I didn't pick Cameron over Naomi in Tipster's. I guess I hoped WWE would give Naomi a clean win and end this shitty feud quickly.</font>

The Fatal 4 Way would be a little bit more interesting if it were Elimination rules

I thought they cut the backstage pass shows for budget reasons

Me too!

<font color=goldenrod>I can't help but wonder if they're not going to have Lana do her usual diatribe about how Russia is the best country ever and Putin is awesome.</font>

IC battle royale.

"Easy Way" or the "Hard Way." this seems familiar...

What you mean? Putin is awesome. He shot down a plane with his own bare hands!

You do get the impression that were one bad promo away from a major conflict.

2/3 Falls to start

WAR WYATTS

good match to get things started

All right, let's get some gold on Harper.

<font color=goldenrod>Alright, gonna sit back and enjoy this match. Should be a banger.</font>

What music will the Wyatts have today

The last time they had a PPV in Tampa Cena got to announce Obama killed Osama Bin laden

Maybe the US Can shove a missile up Putins ass in the next 2 hours so Cena can have another special message for the crowd.

I like how their tron video is a bunch of glowing dots

Yeeeeheheeeheeeeheheeeeaaahahaah

It sounds kinda canned.

I'm pretty sure this is undeniably false.

Rowan has gotten sneakily better

This crowd doesn't seem to be in love with this yet, but those first two matches were really shitty in their defense.

Though it's easy to sneak by everyone's attention when Harper is being 2014 Bruiser Brody with Hurricanranas

I was noticing that too.

IF I had known theyd start teasing an Uso breakup I would have picked the wyatts in Tipsters..

So, any 3v3 match consisting of singles wrestlers would have more.

I knew A guy in School who looked eerily similar to Harper
