FRIDAY NIGHT WRESTLING THREAD!!!!!! SMACKDOWN! RAMPAGE! WRESTLING! 12 AUG 22!!!!!!
Wrestling!
|
There was a womens tag match. I didn’t see it.
|
Drew in the ring now.
|
Drew McIntyre
Not Drew Gulak |
Sorry for confusion
|
Still doing faggy camera cuts during beatdown
|
LOL wait, how they have Hit Row without Swerve??
|
Not much love for Smackdown tonight! Can Rampage do any better?
|
Danielson/Garcia promo was real good. I’ll never get tired for seeing those dudes fight.
|
Tay and Skye Blue. Great ass battle.
|
They are leaning into Brock Lesnar comparisons for Parker Boudreaux but def needs to work out more if they're gonna do that...... smaller and way more out of shape than Brock Lesnar
|
lol Sonny Kiss gets on TV for the first time in like 2 years and jobs inside a minute
|
Beardhausen!
|
Gunn Club are great
|
Gunn Club keep improving every time out
|
Who is this visor fag
|
Looks like he wants to Steal My Sunshine
|
Slim J randomly resurfacing in 2022 is fuckin wild to me
|
This trios bracket is so unbalanced. The top 4 teams are all on the same side.
|
Trustbusters theme being a ripoff of the Entourage theme popped me
|
ok @ Sonny Kiss turning heel...
|
Wow! Smackdown was ***** tonight
|
Hang on, why aren’t The Gunn Club in the trios tournament?
|
And why did they split up Team Taz just before the tournament? So many baffling booking decisions.
|
Apparently Gunther and Nakamura had a real banger. No surprise there.
|
Felt like a more rounded ep of Rampage. If Sky Blue can work out her punches she has real potential I reckon.
The DBry Garcia segment was good, I thought Garcia played his part well. The crowd seemed to want to boo the Trustbusters which is great although I agree Parker needs to hit the gym to be that monster. Sonny kiss has never interested me, with this turn maybe that changes. I liked it, fresh direction attached to a stable that looks like it will get some airtime. I liked Keith Lees promo too, he stayed away from the crazy words simple and to the point. |
There’s a reason WWE cut Parker Bourdreaux.
|
Rampage beats Smackdown tonight 13 posts to 6
The wrestling wars are back! |
Sonny Kiss a damn evil jezebel
|
so what is the deal w slim j
I have learned he was in early tna...did he disappear for like two decades |

Slim J selling being thrown over the top rope by comically stumbling and pratfalling onto the entranceway was hysterical.

It’s a shame Ronda sucks so bad at promos, because this renegade gimmick is getting the crowd on her side something fierce.
|
It doesn’t seem to have gone quite how they expected it to Liv is getting “you tapped out” chants, Ronda is getting more cheers than boos. They’ve lined up Baszler (heel) as Liv’s first opponent so it seems they want Liv as a face, but then you’ve got the whole Shayna-Ronda relationship. They’re exchange was interesting.
I’ve a lot more faith than this regime and “roll with the punches” though and take the story in a direction that makes sense. |
They could just be rolling with the punches, but I think it’s intentional. They had to know Ronda was going to get cheered for snapping against Liv, even if she was supposed to tap at the same time as the pin. Liv’s promos have been coded a little bit with “I only tapped because I thought I had won” sort of stuff. It’s not heavy yet, but she’s going to be Bo Dallas, I think.
She has to go against heels at this point to continue positioning her like Rocky Maivia. It’s too obvious and defeats the purpose if she starts going against faces and you know you’re supposed to boo her. The Ronda/Shayna stuff is interesting. |

I don’t know when it will hit AEW and AEW fans that WWE doesn’t let go of top prospects unless there is something pretty major missing from them.
