LOC Veteran Posted April 3, 2019 Veteran Share Posted April 3, 2019 I was just going to post that MJ. Glad to see he's in a position of that caliber and not actually just announcing (though it'd be awesome if he does announce for them). He has an amazing mind and eye for wrestling, so he's in a good spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOC Veteran Posted April 6, 2019 Veteran Share Posted April 6, 2019 Was just coming here to post about KUSHIDA but as usual you beat me to it MJ I just hope KUSHIDA realizes he's going to be misused like Nakamura has been and all the other big imported stars from Japan have more or less been.

MightyJordan Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 A lot happened while I was asleep, mostly at the WWE Hall of Fame - some c*** attacking Bret Hart during his speech, Dash Wilder being the MVP Top Guy punching said c***, Big E on the hard camera throughout the show, the digs at AEW, etc. - but a fair bit at the G1 Supercard, too: The Beautiful People debuting (straight after former member Madison Rayne rejoined Impact), and Enzo & Cass gatecrashing (not on camera, but looks like Bully Ray really has brought them in, same with TBP, what with him dating Velvet Sky), and that's just outside of the matches. Won't spoil those, and I haven't even mentioned Joey Janela's Spring Break outside of the GIF above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MightyJordan Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Someone's been a... Quote Impact Wrestling announced today that it has terminated its relationship with Shaun Ricker, known as ‘Eli Drake’. https://impactwrestling.com/eli-drake-relationship-terminated/ Refused to face Tessa Blanchard at United We Stand - Joey Ryan took his place - and he's been continually ###### on intergender wrestling on Twitter since. Seemed to ###### off the management so much that they wouldn't even wait for his contract to run out next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George P Global Moderator Posted April 7, 2019 Global Moderator Share Posted April 7, 2019 NXT Takeover NY was very good, don't know how WM is going atm. I'll watch it on replay later but I have high hopes. MightyJordan 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOC Veteran Posted April 8, 2019 Veteran Share Posted April 8, 2019 Wow, this is some promo Daniel Bryan did earlier, check it out: I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Kofi is gonna win it tonight. Why bother with all this build, and all the steps etc in his way, if WWE aren't going to give him his moment at WM? Even if he only holds the belt until tomorrow night or Tuesday night, it'll still be awesome to see. But, then again, WWE might just swerve it and let DB win.

LOC Veteran Posted April 8, 2019 Veteran Share Posted April 8, 2019 Spoiler Kofi won the title! Holy ###### WWE actually did it, I'm honestly very happy about it. So kudos to WWE for pulling the trigger on Kofi here and it was a damn good match to boot! Dick Montage and BetaguyGZT 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOC Veteran Posted April 8, 2019 Veteran Share Posted April 8, 2019 Spoiler So the Cena thing, I can't tell if he and WWE are just trolling the fans by bringing back the Doctor of Thuganomics gimmick and literally saying he's going heel on Elias - or Cena will actually bring back the Thug Life stuff again now that his career is winding down and all. And he gave Elias an FU instead of the AA.....guess we'll see for sure coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOC Veteran Posted April 8, 2019 Veteran Share Posted April 8, 2019 Spoiler So yeah, Baron Corbin beat Angle. What the hell Vince? I know Angle is passing the torch etc, but literally no one wanted to see Angle lose his last match to Baron Corbin at WM. Becky Lynch rolled up Ronda, and it looks like she is on her way out of the company to start a family. But where does this leave Flair? And Asuka? And everyone else? HHH won, shocking I know. But you know what, Batista and HHH put on a damn good little match. The Illconics won the tag titles, which was nice to see. A lot of stuff happened at the show, but not a lot happened at the show, know what I mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyJordan Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Surprisingly, WrestleMania turned out pretty good, Spoiler even with Angle losing to Corbin, the random Lacey Evans, the botched main event finish, and the fact that it went on for SEVEN-AND-A-HALF BLOODY HOURS. @LOCpretty much summed it up for me already, so I'm gonna turn to the indies again. It's been a jam-packed WrestleMania week, to say the least. All in all, I've watched about 3 days worth of wrestling shows since Friday evening. I've seen (this is far from a comprehensive list)... Scott Steiner vs. Hornswoggle A guy with no legs hitting a 619 Ace Austin almost killing himself Tessa Blanchard proving Eli Drake wrong all week A giant dust bunny getting crucified (then resurrected) A blowup doll winning a battle royal Ricky Morton hitting a Canadian Destroyer A human centipede involving Joey Ryan & Val Venis Whatever the hell this is And as I posted above, a hardcore match between two invisible brothers I regret nothing. 😛 LOC 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOC Veteran Posted April 8, 2019 Veteran Share Posted April 8, 2019 Some sad but expected news via the internets: Dave Bautista has now officially retired from WWE. Quote To all the @wwe fans across the world that gave me the opportunity to suspend your disbelief, thank you. From the biggest part of my heart thank you for letting me entertain you. Tonight was my story book ending and I wanted to leave you with all I had to give. I’ll miss this theater of violence more than I can express in words but I am officially retiring from Sports Entertainment. I’m proud of what I’ve accomplished, I leave in great health, and without a doubt the show will go on. I had a hell of a run. Thank you for the journey Wrestlezone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George P Global Moderator Posted April 8, 2019 Global Moderator Share Posted April 8, 2019 Bautista is too busy with Hollywood to mess with the WWE now, maybe he'll drop by like the Rock sometimes but I doubt he'll work any more matches. Spoiler I haven't seen it yet but I did hear the womens main event ending was "botched" but some think that maybe they wanted it to be that way. For example it allows Becky to win but at the same time doesn't make Ronda look weak and probably keeps their story going for later. I think this probably means Charlette is out of the mix though. I wonder what they're going to do now that Becky has both belts? Are they going to go with a future 1 single Womens champion ship that floats between RAW and Smackdown?

Dick Montage Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Spoiler The supposed "botch" is utterly kayfabe. The only way you'd not think this is if you didn't watch it and only read about it. Have to say, it's got little to no commentary online, but I thought The Miz absolutely shone. I think the match was lost in the event, but felt he really has come SO far.
