MightyJordan Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Another potential Hall of Fame spoiler... Spoiler Quote According to PWInsider.com, WWE plans to induct the late “Ravishing” Rick Rude into this year’s WWE Hall of Fame class. Rude will join Diamond Dallas Page as the only other name confirmed so far for this year’s Hall of Fame class. Rick Rude passed away in April 1999 and made appearances for WWE, WCW and ECW, among others. He held the WWE Intercontinental Title and the WCW United States Heavyweight Title, and retired from in-ring competition in 1994 due to a back injury. http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/791235-another-2017-wwe-hall-of-fame-inductee-revealed#mWObfzQqOYxypZRL.99 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/621597-the-big-wrestling-thread/page/1014/#findComment-597730204 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyJordan Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 (edited) So, did anyone else watch Wrestle Kingdom 11? It was a long one; with the New Japan Rumble pre-show, it clocked in at over five hours, but bloody hell, was it worth it. I'll just leave Dave Meltzer's ratings here... Oh, and this... ...aaaand this... There's much more, but I'd get done for bypassing the swear filter if I linked them here, so set aside about an hour and go watch the main event, at the very least.

LOC Veteran Posted January 6, 2017 Veteran Share Posted January 6, 2017 Yeah, Omega isn't going to WWE I don't think. Though with Styles there now, and what's going on with memefest 20xx between Creed and Omega, they could do something there I suppose. Still, just don't think he's gonna show up in WWE. Its certainly possible, and if he showed up in NXT it'd be horrible (he's a main roster debut for sure) unless paired with one of the big two there right now (Joe or Nakamura).

MightyJordan Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Quote WWE has removed several names from the list of UK Championship Tournament competitors, and it appears the 16 man roster has now been finalized. Tucker, Jack Starz, Chris Tyler, Ringo Ryan and Tiger Ali, were all originally announced as tournament competitors, but their names have been pulled from the list and former WWE NXT star Danny Burch has been added. Below is the updated list of competitors in the tournament which takes place on Saturday and Sunday January 14th and 15th. Danny Burch Mark Andrews Roy Johnson Dan Moloney Joseph Conners Tyson T-Bone James Drake Tyler Bate Sam Gradwell Jordan Devlin Wolfgang Pete Dunne HC Dyer Trent Seven Saxon Huxley http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/791571-wwe-removes-several-names-from-uk-championship-tournament-former-nxt-star-added-updated-16-man-roster#3Kqst2VAOYv4qqut.99 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/621597-the-big-wrestling-thread/page/1014/#findComment-597732560 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyJordan Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 (edited) Well, if they were trying to top the previous logo in terms of naffness, they've succeeded. It's like TNA meets WWF's Golden Age. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/621597-the-big-wrestling-thread/page/1014/#findComment-597732930 Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOC Veteran Posted January 11, 2017 Veteran Share Posted January 11, 2017 It seems pretty obvious now that Reigns will win the title from Owens at RR then Owens will feud with Jericho and Reigns will feud with whoever the set up is (Goldberg maybe or XXX name here). Ugh. I hope the news sites reporting this to be pretty close to happening are wrong though. I really can't stand Reigns and I gave him over a year to grow on me. He hasn't. Sorry WWE.

Ugh. I hope the news sites reporting this to be pretty close to happening are wrong though. I really can't stand Reigns and I gave him over a year to grow on me. He hasn't. Sorry WWE. Yeah, I thought the same thing since he dropped the belt to Jericho (that means he will win the title from Owens). Usual setup scenario. Anyway, I hope it will be a big back-and-forth feud for Reigns and Owens, as I really like the way Owens does his heel work. Would be very interesting to watch (Owens, that is) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/621597-the-big-wrestling-thread/page/1014/#findComment-597740132 Share on other sites More sharing options...
