Love-Wilcox Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 That springboard forearm to RKO fake-out spot was brilliant, really enjoyed that main event. Â Alexa's ring jacket was pretty dope too, wrestling needs more ring jackets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
textonly Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Talking Smack had a weird, sad moment with Daniel Bryan. Listening to Miz give him the same old, "oh, you want to wrestle but you can't" business, he retorted, "I can't? Or they won't let me? We'll see what they have to say in a year and a half". It seemed weirdly specific and honest to me, and yet another sign that the guy just can't accept what's happened to him. I don't know what happens in a year and a half. Maybe his contract expires and he says he's going to wrestle elsewhere? I don't know. I thought it was mildly uncomfortable anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TildeGuy~! Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 He's definitely going to see out his contract and wrestle elsewhere isn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrodyGraham Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I'd put good money on him being in NJPW by the end of next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUM Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 This weeks episode was a bit boring I reckon. You can tell they've just been trying to fill time - they went a bit early on the Mania build compared to RAW and it has shown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D@mm Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Shame there aint a big time wrestling company other then WWE in America that had any ambition, they could go for CM Punk and Daniel Bryan and have them as their big time babyface stars, maybe even just have them wrestle once a week, they could get people like Swagger, Ryback, Del Rio etc in to build a nice little roster then raid WWE's roster when their contracts are expiring, get some competition going and bring some life back into wrestling as WWE has been really rubbish lately.

So your idea to combat the rubbishness of WWE is to raid WWE's roster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D@mm Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 WCW did it in the 90's as well as get in the best high flyers from overseas, if a big time Wrestling group did that now it would hopefully give the WWE a kick up the ass like it did in the 90's and they might try something new for a change.

WyattSheepMask Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 What do you mean try something new? Samoa Joe and El Generico opened up the latest PPV, AJ Styles has had one of the best years in wrestling and Kevin Steen has just had a six month run with one of the top titles and the other is held by a spooky talking hillbilly cult leader. The women's division is dominated by women who've come through WWE's own feeder system, as has most of the roster. Â What exactly do you want from them?

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 8, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted March 8, 2017 The finish to Cena & Nikki Vs Carmellsworth was somewhat contrived. Miz tried his best with his promo but he and Maryse are obviously just window dressing for Cena & Nikki's big moment  Is Orton meant to be a heel? His promos still feel awfully heelish, which is jarring when the crowd's chanting for him.  Was Mojo standing on a box, or is whatever her name tiny?  Nice to see Road Dogg make an appearance. Convenient that it seemed there was nobody near that forklift truck when they needed to get it off of Dean.  Alexa's jacket was cool. The segment with the girls was harmless enough. I wonder whether "every available woman on the roster" will extend to Asuka coming and caving in some heads or somebody hopping over from Raw. I like the juxtaposition between this and the Raw women's title picture where there are no friends in this one, but we've got Sasha & Bayley's friendship arguably as the central story on the other side.  Orton's slow, deliberate style doesn't lend itself to a babyface, especially when we've got AJ working from underneath. I like that Styles seems able to reverse out of most people's "signature moves". Faking out the RKO with the springboard was brilliant, but then that RKO to finish was equally awesome. Everything seems slightly more back on track for Mania now, I guess we just have to finagle Harper back into the title match?  For a 3 match show that wasn't bad. I can understand why they try to have fewer matches week to week, because then it feels a lot more special when they have the matches on PPV/Network specials.

DCW Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I thought that 4 woman in ring segment was awfully awkward. Anytime Nattie has a mic you know it's going to be bad. Â I've no interest in Orton or Wyatt either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Statto Posted March 8, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted March 8, 2017 Whoever left that forklift with the tines not only off the floor, but at head height, should lose their license. Corbin was only trying to make it safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
