Paid Members tiger_rick Posted October 11, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted October 11, 2018 It's a World Cup year, the World Cup was popular, they're throwing the name out as an excuse to have a little tournament on a meaningless, paid for, glorified house show. We're over-thinking it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that'll fall on deaf ears for many, but I felt like stating the obvious anyway. It turns out all the assassins were vegan, so I'm fine with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigfoote Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 (edited) I'm suffering with awful insomnia at the moment, so to pass the time, I decided to try to come up with a 32-man World Cup. I got to 26 just from WWE (including NXT etc), add 2 for Walter and Rocky Romero (Cuba)...add Roman as a Samoan makes 29. Add your own Canadian and American and we are just one short...

The Dart Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 You could have No Way Jose. He is American but billed from Dominican Republic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon-Carr_92 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Seth Rollins is of Armenian descent, so could have him representing there by way of ancestry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they had Ronda play Goldberg. In which case the rest can use Nattie as a human shield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donating $100k to a local charity just to get good press for bringing Kane in makes me wonder how much exactly HBK got to come out of retirement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
