Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted January 6, 2020 Paid Members Posted January 6, 2020 I liked that year when TNA did the Bound For Glory series and halfway through realised they had no more shows left to do all the matches and just ended it.

Just so we're all clear. I wonder if the AEW win-loss record will apply when they rename the company Dynamite Wrestling.
Merzbow Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 Some people are moaning that the Juggalo dude that jumps into shit is on Being The Elite, ignoring that the womans champ looks like a total loser later on.
TildeGuy~! Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) I used to enjoy watching Being The Elite, that was just 15 minutes of garbage. The only thing I took from that was Adam Page mentioning Marty Scurll’s New Years Day party from last year. Edited January 6, 2020 by TildeGuy~!

Three for a win, 1 for a draw, that sort of thing? There was the Bound For Glory series a few years back but that's the only one that springs to mind. I think it was week one or two of Dynamite there was this ace graphic that showed where everybody ranked that I thought was really cool. I like the idea of JR saying mid-show "Tony, what does that win do for Janella in the table" or whatever and gives a visual idea of who sits where, who is next in line for a title shot and whatnot. It's a plot device that thy can bring in or remove as and when they can be arsed without having a win-loss record plastered all over the screen showing how much everyone loses. Or it could be shit. And to stop Dem from counting up and saying "Suchandsuch is actually in forth but the table says they're third" you count house shows, Dark, any old shite to manipulate the table to suit the booking. Along with a few mates I launched a show on Amazon Prime called Underworld Wrestling with a points base system. 1 point for a pinfall or countout, 2 for a submission or KO. If you accumulate enough points you trade them in for a championship match. Had pros and cons but generally worked ok. Takes serious long term planning and a mid series injury really through a spanner into the works.

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted January 7, 2020 Paid Members Posted January 7, 2020 Just bring back the Dupp Cup.

I didn't think she looked like a loser at all. She looked completely non plussed and confused by Penelope Ford acting a douche to her and trying to give it the big un. Not sure how that would make her look a loser as opposed to Ford?
Paid Members Chris B Posted January 7, 2020 Paid Members Posted January 7, 2020 Really enjoyed the 'Road to Memphis' special. The music video for the Rhodes Bros and Lucha Bros was simple but effective. And the stuff with Jurassic Express was great. The simplicity of the 'boy and his dinosaur' bit was always fun, but the explanation of the thinking behind the characters was lovely. And it's made me like Marko Stunt more than I was expecting to. Loving that group.
Paid Members hallicks Posted January 8, 2020 Paid Members Posted January 8, 2020 Recorded last week's show and put it on last night. The shot of the commentary team comes up and my wife goes "isn't that Phil Mitchell?"
Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted January 8, 2020 Paid Members Posted January 8, 2020 Nice tease on Dark this week (only 33 minutes long) when Daniels stalled hitting his moonsault because of the recent botches.Just doubting his ability. Though it was a nice call back.
The King of Old School Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 That Jon Moxley is a hoot, isn't he?

Paid Members Supremo Posted January 9, 2020 Paid Members Posted January 9, 2020 Brandi Rhodes has worse go-away heat than anyone in the business. Even Baron Corbin feels like an effective heel compared to her. Also absolutely hated how Dean Ambrose-y Mox felt in that main event segment. After such a great show last week, this felt like a massive step backwards again. Three factions doing the same recruitment storyline on a two hour show. Fuck me.
