• Curtis Axel & Damien "Macho Mandow" Sandow vs. The Ascension
  
• King Barrett vs. Neville
  
• Naomi & Tamina Snuka vs. Nikki & Brie Bella

• United States Championship I Quit Match: John Cena (c) vs. Rusev
  
• WWE World Heavyweight Championship Fatal 4-Way Match: Seth Rollins (c) vs. Randy Orton vs. Roman Reigns vs. Dean Ambrose

I hope my favorite wrestlers win and my least favorite wrestlers lose.

Booker T legitimately plugging a "GI Bro" comic already. Strong start.

Okay. Actually watching this (yay free month). Hopefully it's good. I will be joining you fine folks this evening as repayment for those of you who are voting for Wrestling Forum stalwarts The Loopy Balls in Tag Team Turmoil.

When does this start?

Preshow on now, PPV starts in 50 minutes.

Pre-show's on now, which should have the MEGA POWERS later. Right now, just running down the card, and Vince Neil--er--Dolph Ziggler cut a backstage promo.

Actual main show starts in 50 minutes.

Why am I watching this again?
Oh yeah Dean Ambrose.

Byron Saxton's analogies are the fucking worst.

He just tried to make a Thanksgiving turkey dinner analogy out of Naomi's heel turn. What the fuck is wrong with that dude?

Is R-Truth the only guy to have used the same theme in both TNA and WWE?

Also, he's really terrible.

Please be Kevin Owens please be Kevin Owens please be Kevin Owens

Random "bonus" match of Ron "GOD DAMN SPIDERS" "R-Truth" Killings versus somebody.

Weird timing for "Available in SAP" to pop up during R-Truth's rap. It's not even really in English.

Shut your god damn mouth, spider.

Oh. Well, I like Stardust, too. The both times I've seen him before.

If R truth didn't brush his teeth and only had one tooth left he'd be called R Tooth. Lolololol

"Ha ha ha ha, I agree" he says, having no idea what pop culture reference was just made, lest he appear out of touch.

God damnit Lawler, you're supposed to be calling the match not posting on TPWW.

Glad it's only an I quit match and not an I shit match. AMIRITE?

They should have had R-Truth against Goldberg. Apparently he can beat people by being speared by them. That's what the finish of that match was, right?

Return of the Stone Cold Podcast on June 1st with Paul Heyman?

Oh sweet jesus.

I would totally watch the Stone Cold Podcast with Paul Heyman except for two things:

1) It's the day after I cancel my subscription
2) Half of the interview will be Steve Austin

<img style="-webkit-user-select: none" src="http://www.porchdrinking.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Stone-Cold-Steve-Austin-Finger-wwestalker.jpg#stone%20cold%20steve%20austin%20flipping%20bird%20221x348">

I'm not afraid of Austin hitting me. I'm

a) not married to him
b) not near anyplace he might be driving after drinking heavily

The new haircut of fear

Sheamus will eventually team with Barron Corbin as the lone wolves

Sheamus looks like his beard is melting

It's rip and shred time

Haven't watched in three months. Are we taking the Ascension seriously now? I mean, they've still got the dumb Road Warrior knockoff look, but the announcers aren't actively burying them.

Still think Ascension theme/tron is pretty bad ass, wish they hadn't cut cheesy promos since coming up

No.

I really like Axelmania and Macho Mizdow, but if the acension loses this, they're done.

omg yes

Lol this is ridiculous

Okay. Axel coming out to Real American in full boas and fake mustache and hair just made this a billion times better.

The Meta Powers

The hell?

HULKING UP

Betting a significant portion of the people outside the arena hearing Hogan's theme probably freaked out, rushed in, saw Axel, immediately left.

Ascension are losing after this much effort, lol. Axelmania!

Don't go to the bathroom is the new

Don't change the channel

Soooo Sandow's jobbing again?

<font color=goldenrod>lol poor Sandow</font>

the real mega powers wouldve won

What the what? Didn't see that coming.

Hey. Remember how everyone though Sandow might win the Andre the Giant Battle Royal? Or how when he split from the Miz he'd get a push?

Damien jobnow

Hope this is the start of Ascension being built up again. Think they could be pretty dominant tag champs for the likes of the Usos and Luchadores to chase

Nope. When they didn't make Miz Vs. Mizdow a WrestleMania match it was doomed.

I'm not sure if I should be happy for Sandow or not.

I mean he broke up with Miz and gave such a heartfelt thanks to the fans(felt like a huge turnaround was coming after being a lackey) and now he's in another joke gimmick I dunno.

Didn't see the pre-show but how did the Meta Powers lose?

Clean to the Fall Of Man.

Ascension cheated.

I suppose it is technically illegal for them both to be in the ring at the same time

Nobody picked the Ascension for Tipsters....

Well like I said, they had to win, or they might as well go back to NXT

They have til 5!

Rollins: I wasn't even alive in 1983.

Some people say wrestling has a gay vibe to it....I gotta say I don't see it

"It had to be the most embarrassing, most humiliating moment of Ziggler's career!"

Meanwhile, on the WWE Network:

<img src="http://img.bleacherreport.net/img/slides/photos/002/883/687/15_dx_spiritsquad7_crop_north.jpg?w=630&h=420&q=75">

Had low expectations for the Meta Powers to begin with but guess now they are a bigger joke than the Acension are for the tag division.

Adam Jones right behind the Spanish announce team

Huh. JBL doesn't understand what bullying is. That explains so much.

"ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!?"

"BOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

"'BOOOOOOOOOOOO' IS NOT A SATISFACTORY ANSWER TO A YES OR NO QUESTION!!!!!"

He's gonna puuuuuuuuuuke

Wonder how much gel /hairspray it takes Sheamus to hold that rooster crown

Probably decided to call in sick during all those Be A * meetings the WWE had.

lol "you look stupid" chants are back.

DOLPH BLEEDING

Did Ziggler bust himself open on that headbutt? Apparently Sheamus's forehead is made of god damn razors or something. Jesus Christ.

Ziggler just hardwayed. He'll be in the doghouse for a while.

Neither is "yes" or "no" to that question because it's impossible to answer since you said "not" in it

"Are you not entertained?"

"Yes"

"So you are entertained or are you not"

vs.

"Are you not entertained?"

"No"

"Okay so technically you are right"

Dolph Ziggler channeling Eddie Guerrero.

Dolph is busted open

Holy shit he's bleeding bad. Like Flair bleeding.

Seamus wins with te bro kick

Dose Dolph Ziggler do the FameAsser just because he looks like Billy Gunn or what

Yes.

Damn that was a lot of blood.

I wonder if Seth mentions May 19th to Kane and that is what finally sets him off?

I love J and J.

NEW DAY!

NEW DAY ROCKS!

Still hate the New Day. Have not converted like everyone else.

Do you like or dislike New Day? Comment below.

Oh shit

why do people bring their championship replicas to events. Those things are heavy.

Dumbest is when they bring them to house shows.

This "New! Day sucks!" chant is pretty funny.

WEE WOO
WEE WOO
WEE WOO
WEE WOO
WEE WOO
WEE WOO

Just want to confirm that Cesaro just Hadoukened Kidd.

WWE gave that one to Adam Jones after he gave his to the home run derby winner a couple years ago

This match actually has a lot of potential

Love the new day... think you might hafta be stupid to not think they're hilarious
