Woo for CopyPasta!! This is a thread for Professional Wrestling (or Wrasslin, if you prefer). If you don't like pro wrestling or want to tell those of us that enjoy it that it's fake...we know, piss off. Pro wrestling provides some fun action and story lines with guys playing over the top characters.
WWE:
WWE has enjoyed the luxury of being top dog in the wrestling world for close to 12 years now, being the sole victor of the now long past Monday Night Wars. However, just because WWE is the biggest promoter, doesn’t mean they’re the only promoter.
Enter:
TNA:
Now if you want something that's a little less, I dunno, generic, you need to cross the line (lol) and step over to Indy territory!
Ring Of Honor:
Japan
WWE Discussion (MY HUSBAND) is now an Nexus for 10/4
Also, delicious tears of the defeated and heartbroken! (credit to Neogaf for this)
WWE:
The WWE is the single largest producer and distributor of Professional Wrestling in the whole goddamn world. Don’t buy the “Sports Entertainment” spin they try and sell you; despite Ol’ Vinnie Mac’s efforts to the contrary, they are first and foremost a Professional Wrestling Company. They even have Champions to prove it.
WWE Heavyweight Champion - THE MIZ
World Heavyweight Champion - Kane
United States Champion - Daniel Bryan (Bryan Danielson)
Intercontinental Champion - Dolf Ziggler
United Tag Team Champions - The Nexus

TNA:
Spelled out, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling is a delusional promotion founded by Jerry and Jeff Jerret (of all people). They have terrible writers and even worse management. They don't know what the hell they're doing with their talent and are for some reason unbeknownst to fans and even their own staff, stuck in a 1997’s WCW mindset (see Jeff Jerret, Vince Russo, Hulk Hogan, et al).
If I could chose one word, that wasn’t a pejorative, to describe TNA, it would be inconsistent. They really do have some grade A talent, homegrown or otherwise that, when they can get it right, make for some damn entertaing wrestling. No seriously, I’ll prove it to you:
Unbreakable 2005
Would you believe me if I told you that that match was booked by Vince Russo? True Story Bro.

Ring Of Honor:
Ring of Honor is the real Fuckin Deal and The Whole Fuckin Show. Arguably the biggest and most sucessful indy fed in existence. They've produced stars like CM Punk and Samoa Joe, both being successful in their respective companies. Ring of Honor is currently undergoing a little bit of a renaissance, under the even cussing gaze of Jim Cornette.

World Heavyweight Champion - Roderick Strong
Tag Team Champions - The Kings of Wrestling
Television Champion - Eddie Edwards
There's also some lovely little indy promotions out there, highlighted by our very own Psychotic One.

Japan
Now what you've seen here is just a taste of wrestling in North America. If you really want to see some impressive wrestling check out some of teh Japanese promotions. This stuff is re-
>_<
Once again, Japan, and listen close this time, because you're obviously not getting it:
It's supposed to be FAKE.
But no, seriously. The Japanese promotions are gonna feature some damn impressive wrestling that, 9 times out of ten, you won't see in North America. Just check out this match with Chris Hero from 2009!
Part 1
Part 2
And that's just a taste of what the Japanese scene has to offer. Observe!
What prompted that you might ask? Fucked if I know, it's freakin Necro Butcher; who really asks these kinds of questions anymore?

He's been carrying that shit around since after WM.

He didn't have it walking up the ramp.

either nobody wants him, he's hurt, or he's fighting in a few months
but i know he ain't fighting in UFC anytime soon

that was priceless.
How much more can WWE stab the hearts of the kids? Hmmm

they know how to shatter a child's dreams
He's still not wearing the shirt. That'll be a awesome stake through the heart.
having Cena smile while performing in his first beatdown as part of Nexus
that and receiving the Nexus shirt
Steam
Two Cokes and some chips.
More like a pile of slim jims.
Your gimmick of acting like the Wrestling thread czar is still not over.
Also why the fuck is Miz in this match? He has the MITB.
What are you talking about this "mid show" nonsense? I'm on the west coast, I ain't even seen the show yet. Far as I'm concerned, I should make you spoiler all your posts. :P

He could beat Orton with in an inch of his life and get DQ'd, then cash in and go a second round.
Or something?
And on another note: You know what I miss? 2/3 falls matches.

Dammit Justin just because you're GM doesn't give you the right to spoil this for everyone.
Of course, my mistake.
AND :

i am loving this so much

The only other way it could have gone down was Cena jumping out first.

But yeah, this RAW was pretty predictable. Unfortunately, I don't see how it couldn't be. We all knew what was gonna happen with Cena.
You must be the biggest Cena fan on the planet to think this was a bad Raw. While light on wrestling, including two diva matches, it was pretty much an aftershock show that setup the Cena-Nexus storyline fantastically.
