sting is still the one that makes me saddest

The bit about Rollins telling Sting he dressed up as him for Halloween when he was a kid...

So much :bigfrown:

wirehead26

Well I guess they can't afford to push Cody now.

411Randle

Well, I guess they'd better really hope that Roman Reigns is the big star they think he is.

I just caught up on the thread. I hope Cena recovers ok. I really like him (probably due to the fact that I started watching at the Rumble last year and the US Open Challenge was one of my favorite things). Now, can they please have the New Day win the title at the Rumble? I would die of happiness.

Xehalus

Kofi is great. But Big E is better.

Rorshach Kringle

Have New Day help Kofi win. Have him be in the final four after Big E and Xavier are eliminated. He get's knocked out of the ring, not eliminated. Other three eliminate each other. Kofi gets back in a Kofi way.

Wonder how much this affects the Rumble. Or was it the reason it was changed in the first place?

bloodyroarxx

You would think all these injuries to top guys would make them (WWE) rethink pretty much then entire way of life but yeah no that would make sense and we know Vince isn't about that life.

Ah yes Nattie with all those great matches she's working on tv.

Sweeney Tom

Just because they can't find anything for her to do doesn't mean she's not healthy

ChillyWilly

I think Schide just means that it's sad that she is healthy but isn't on TV.

They have hours and hours of TV programming each week and can only handle 1 major women's angle at a time. Plenty of ladies to do at least one more. Not hard.

Yes this is what I meant.

They started to have her do stuff with PCB then someone attacked then that angle was just written off and she was gone and it sucked.

Psychotic One

That moment when you realize the Rumble will be all New Comers, Mid Carders, The One Man Band performing with the Social Outcasts, and more "Surprise" Entrants than ever before.

It should be noted that Styles recently said his back is a lot better now.

Honestly, I don't trust any wrestler who says something like that unless they have taken time off. And even taking time off doesn't change it a lot.

Especially one who, at the very least, was prepping for 2 world title matches for 2 companies he didn't want getting fucked up, and at most, was also talking to a third company about signing and didn't want that getting fucked up either

Variable

there were a few days where I had myself convinced that new day would take the us title from cena and I was really hoping it'd be kofi

I'd love to see him get a run. but realistically if it's gonna be one of them Big E makes more sense in more ways than 1.

PwnanObrien

I'm going to go ahead and call dibs on the next OP as I've got a year end review ready.

I hope you like reading about injuries.

Grobian

Oh, dang, as of 2 days ago the network is available in Germany. I need to check again at what time PPVs air to see if I can maybe watch the rumble or mania live.

Hmmm, it's 1AM, yeah, that's out.

Ms Dapper

You know who is a good wrestler, not hurt and an established star who is willing to put over talent?

I imagine he has much better things to do right now

Especially since Guardians Vol. 2 starts filming soon

konnor's got a jaw injury, so really what should be happening is that kalisto and viktor should form a new tag team from the wreckage

Solution to WWE injury problems going forward.

1. Hire Zack Sabre Jr and Marty Scurill
2. Rename Raw tp World of WWE Sport
3. Done.

Xehalus

if Adam Rose had a better character I would be 100% in

Slater, Axel, and Bo was enough

Reynolds

Kofi by himself is definitely not a main event champion. But with the New Day doing so great this should totally be his chance. He always has the great Rumble moments that the announcers constantly bring up, and they show the clips in every montage. They've already shown that the Authority gets along with New Day. They should just cheat an absurd amount, let Kofi have another crazy moment, and actually win this one.

Now if they let him/them keep the title until WM is another thing.

PwnanObrien

Well, time to end this thread in the middle of the night like WWE scrubbing Hogan from their website before the news hit.

JOSHI GIFS!
