Waiting for the Bryan 'burial' calls now though.

Who in their right mind would call that a burial? He lost to one of the biggest WWE stars of the past 10 years due to interference.

I mean the HHH stuff. And dickheads.

Hhh does it every week to a heel and it doesn't show on tv. Get over it

Is it me or does it feel like storyline/kayfabe wise despite Booker T is a long time veteran wrestler that as a GM he hasn't got good managerial skill at running the B show of WWE? It just comes across like he hasn't got good control of his show where AJ the little skippy girl with little experience in the business is doing a much better job of controlling her show?

I haven't watched Smackdown for years now, always just read the spoilers and enjoy the recaps of anything major on Raw. After the chore of reading that I'm now asking myself is it even worth reading the spoilers these days, the only thing that would have appealed to me is Bryan-Orton but only if they were feuding, I'm sure it would have been a very underwhelming effort.

Get over it? I was saying others will complain, which I have seen elsewhere. What are you on about?

Bloody hell Tommy.

 

I'm staggered this isn't the official forum motto yet.

 

Thanks for sharing that. Presumably nothing to add "on topic" and just being your usual cunty self.

 

"You're a cunt Gladstone."

 

That would be a better motto.
