JR's trying to get to 50 years in wrestling and clock out. Fingers crossed. Plus i'm sure he'll get bored once college football season starts up and dips out. Two people taking it fairly seriously may help. Nigel being added means he'll be off the ROH team. I'm not watching that as regularly but he was a 3rd wheel there. Quote
TildeGuy~! Posted June 16, 2023 Posted June 16, 2023 Kevin Kelly has been my favourite commentator for the last 5 years so I’m chuffed with that Quote

He was fine on rampage only stinking up an hour a week. roh is getting taped same night so Nigel can do both. Then Kelly is off to do the g1 shortly so it’ll change again. Quote

I always thought the WWF missed a trick by not using it for Saturday Night's Main Event. I realise that its now 2023 and not 1987 but I still feel it could work great. Quote

Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted June 17, 2023 Author Paid Members Posted June 17, 2023 Nice I think that’s cracking to be fair. It’s not like WWE haven’t licensed famous songs to be their shows (They even used The Beautiful People for both their main shows), but it’s a classic and I think it works. Quote
Shane O' Mac Version 2 Posted June 17, 2023 Posted June 17, 2023 They announced on Rampage that JR's just coming in for the Punk match. He should be fine in that. He knows/likes Punk, FTR have the kind of style he likes, same with Joe (hoss) and I think he may have called Jay White/Juice Robinson matches during his NJPW run. It'll serve the purpose of getting a JR soundbite on Punk's return match, good for future video packages/docos/whatever. Surely he can muster up the energy for one match. Quote
Infinity Land Posted June 17, 2023 Posted June 17, 2023 Going to take some getting used to. Feels like someone's dubbed it over. https://twitter.com/DrainBamager/status/1669888376189886465 Quote
Paid Members FLips Posted June 17, 2023 Paid Members Posted June 17, 2023 I’m on the fence about the commentary team. Kevin Kelly is decent in NJPW from the bits I’ve watched but I’ve never been huge on Nigel. Glad JR is a once and done because he’s robbing a living at the minute. That Elton John opener is my favourite wrestling intro since Into The Fire on Powerrr though. What a jam. Quote
Merzbow Posted June 17, 2023 Posted June 17, 2023 The whole thing just feels unprofessional and cobbled together, it's been embarrassing so far. I just hope they settle into the show once it starts and the egos on both sides can get the fuck over themselves. The song does slap though, maybe re-edit the video to match it better. Quote
Pinc Posted June 17, 2023 Posted June 17, 2023 (edited) I’d love to be a fly on the wall when the Dynamite whatsapp group find out Collision have got Sir Elton while their big guest star for next week is Ray J. Johnson. Edited June 17, 2023 by Pinc Quote
