I was thinking about this just yesterday.

And it wouldn't be unreasonable to think that Brock Lesnar would have given it a shot there, or that Kurt Angle would have agreed to work for them. Or that AJ Styles would make them his new home promotion. I mean, as it stands, for the type of promotion it is, the WWE is the only real game in town. TNA has done enough to sully its reputation, ROH is a little small time, New Japan is based in Japan and GFW hasn't really started up yet and who knows how much money they can really offer.

Do we have any idea how many people are actually cancelling their subscriptions? Will it be enough to make a dent? The social networking aspect is enough of a black mark for the WWE. I mean, "#RomanEmpire" isn't a worldwide trend at the moment, is it?

Supposedly NJPW World's website went down around the same time as the Cancel movement started to pick up steam on Twitter.

Won't know until NJPW reveals their next sub numbers if it was in fact due to a big exodus from the Network's base.

Off the shitstorm for a second: what happen'd with Ascension vs NAO? I'm hoping Konnor and Victor got (and continue to get) a backdoor victory to mirror how LoD jobbed to the Outlaws back in the day to help legitimize them, and with the same "you're too old"/barely able to back up their bragging schtick to boot.

But, since I missed it, I'm fearing a one and done squash that didn't help the new guys in any way.

NAO controlled 90% of the match, then Konnor grabbed him from on the apron and ripped his neck down over the rope into Fall of Man. So, pretty much what you wanted.

We'll know for sure sooner than later. You know damn well dirt sheet providers will be scouring for some numbers. Cannot wait to see if there's a dramatic drop off.

The WWE almost seems to be in the position it was when WCW were kicking its ass, but without the other company there to kick their ass. I think this is what CM Punk meant when he said that Vince McMahon is a millionaire that should be a billionaire.

If it does dip low (I'm skeptical), could be a hot time to buy some stock in it before it inevitably picks up around WM time... I doubt there will be any noticeable effect though

Welp, time to go to bed. Working late tomorrow, so I won't be around to enjoy the East Coast Raw thread, but I'm sure it'll be great.

Here's something to work on in the interim. Please rank these in order of shittiness/stupidity/THIS-IS-THE-END-OF-WRESTLING

1) Abeyance as multiple time WWE World Heavyweight Champion

2) The 2015 Royal Rumble

3) Shockmaster

4) Gobbledygooker

5) Bash at the Beach 2000

6) Mae Young giving birth to a hand

7) Jeff Hardy being completed wasted for Victory Road

8) Brawl for it All

9) WCW spoiling Mick Foley's Title Win

10) Kennel in a Cell match


It's been a pleasure gents.

You don't consider David Arquette and Vince Russo winning the WCW Title amongst the worst moments?

There was also the time Robocop saved Sting.

I actually sing that line IRL whenever applicable. Problem is, I'm rarely ever in the company of people who know the source material. Almost never, in fact, so no one knows what the hell I'm singing, let alone what I'm singing.

I also burst my way into an apartment once singing Captain Hammer's opening for "A Man's Gotta Do", but she a) was aware of the origin and b) I was there to kill a spider, so it worked.

It does seem odd. I wouldn't think that people canceling their subscriptions to the WWE Network would be the sort to immediately flock to New Japan though, you know?

I agree with this lady. People need to grow up and not cancel their subscription to a wrestling network simply because it doesn't entertain them.

How dare consumers of a product get pissed off because they don't get what they want.
If I order pizza and get rice cake its childish to complain.

I can't tell if this post is being made ironically or not. Really hoping it's ironic, since, you know... not supporting a product you don't like is only the most logical and basic aspect of capitalism.

Anyway, I'm highly amused that they Bootista 2.0'd the Rumble, but as with last year's developments, there are certainly ways to rectify this. If we have HHH vs Sting and Cena vs Rusev for not the US Title at Wrestlemania, you could turn Lesnar vs Reigns into a triple threat or fatal fourway.

I'd personally root for a fatal fourway, since it could generate more suspense and intrigue. Make it Lesnar vs Reigns vs Rollins vs... I dunno, Bryant (health issues permitting) or something like that. And then even have Reigns beat Lesnar with literally five spears (milking the Lesnar injured ribs angle, since he's face-ish now, and all WWE faces have to be vulnerable if they're not named Cena ). And then have Rollins cash in his MitB while Reigns is celebrating, clocking him in the back of the head with the brief case, then beating him down some more, signalling to a ref to start a match, and then applying a curb stomp onto Reigns onto the briefcase. You get a heel win that the fans might actually be happy for.

Well, I'd be happy with that swerve, at least.

--

If Bryant is healthy, then I'm disappointed he didn't win. If he's really not 100%, then I understand not giving him the rub. Having Bryant build an underdog story and be the guy to defeat Lesnar would have been my favorite angle for Wrestlemania, because you'd be able to empathize with him. And having Bryan triumph where others have failed could be believable due to his technical wrestling acumen. But it's all based on how well Bryant can really perform, and since I don't know that (and won't rely on rumors), I can't really comment on whether I'm happy he was eliminated quickly or not.

Bray Wyatt did look awesome, though.

I was trying that "ironic" thing, for the record.

That tweet was quite retarded. I just found the idea that keeping your subscription to a wrestling network regardless of whether it entertains you or not is the "grown up" thing to do hilarious.

Think I'm most annoyed that I sacrificed half a nights sleep to watch live for the first time in forever because I was expecting something interesting to happen (in the Rumble or the Triple Threat).

Now I'm going to do a 10 hour shift with 3.5 hours sleep.

I'm not pissed because Roman won, I honestly can't see why people hate him THAT much, like with a passion, other than the fact he is pushed hard on TV. We all know the IWC rebel's against that happening unless it's a favourite of theirs.

Actually, I'm not even pissed. I'm just sad that the match had so much potential, and they booked it so horribly. Whoever thought it was a good idea to make Big Show & Kane look stronger than Bryan, Ziggler, Ambrose etc should be reprimanded. That's what ruined the match for me.

The problem being that all that bad booking happened in order to place Roman on a pedestal. It's not his fault but you can't boo with a caveat.

Yeah I get that, but it's not the first time it's happened. I think things are getting a bit extreme with some things I'm reading. If some people legit feel the way they do about what happened on a wrestling show, it's probably not a bad thing they stop watching for a while.

I'm not pissed, but disappointed for sure. Also don't really "hate" Reigns, but he is boring as shit to ME. I was not entertained and doubtful I will be entertained come Mania (at least for the title match). I'm willing to give it a shot because I am a fan of WWE, but since Summerslam, my interest has definitely declined.

The Rumble match itself was shite. People talking during the match on mic and then, as you stated, Kane + Show eliminating most of the talent who, if were in the final 4 instead of them, would have been much more entertaining. There should have been a few "OH SHIT" elimination spots. This Rumble fell very flat for me, which is disappointing because it is generally my favorite event of the year. Markout moment came for Bubby "Bully" Ray Dudley.

As a person who doesn't really know anything about Reigns and doesn't care that he won, the reason it seemed shitty to me had nothing to do with him... just the match itself seemed really shitty and boring and super anticlimactic... nothing cool happened, sorta just suddenly tossed people over the ropes without any "cool spots" or build up or whatever... was just like "ok..." Like even the end, when Rusev was still not out and he came back... before the crowd could even finish "popping," he just got boringly thrown out immediately... and Kane and Big Show being there @ the end... Daniel Bryan being eliminated super early so only a bunch of boring ass wrestlers were left for the rest of the match (and immediately eliminating any1 else who came in who seemed "exciting")... shitty
