So we're now on a new Wrestling thread, where we talk about WWE, TNA, RoH, and pretend to listen to wirehead's insane ramblings.
In honor of the new Wrestling Thread, I present to you: The Wirehead Hall of Fame!
Exhibiting the kind of "old man wrestling for way too long" that all wrestling fans enjoy, Flair is the embodiment of a guy that can't give up the dream. In a way, it's almost tragic. In another way, I really don't want to watch it on my television. Speaking of guys who are way past their primes....
We all love Foley. He was one of the more colorful characters of the Attitude Era, and one of the best promo men in history. 2012 Foley is none of these things. Foley can't wrestle anymore, and his promo ability has slipped. And yet, who doesn't love watching a borderline geriatric get piledriven over and over? Currently one of the few old-timers to have a constant presence on television. His name has also been thrown around as an initial opponent for our next inductee:
The former Jon Moxley, Dean Ambrose is known for a psychological style of wrestling that isn't seen that often anymore. He's also one of the few guys from the indies that can cut a promo, which is a step in the right direction. Unfortunately, Ambrose has supposedly been ready to be called up for near-on a year at this point, which means he hasn't been on any WWE television for quite some time. Only time will tell if Ambrose makes as big an impact as our final inductee.
FEED!
HIM!
MORE!

With all that said, wrestling is in an interesting position right now, where nothing is entertaining. CM Punk, who was our collective favorite person ever a year ago, has been reduced to making fun of Jerry Lawler for having a heart attack. John Cena is supposedly fighting for the WWE title still, and is also banging AJ? Big Show is your World Heavyweight Champion, and we're going to just leave that there because Smackdown has become a den of anguish and despair.
TNA is no better, as Jeff Hardy is your Heavyweight Champion in an attempt to get him to resign with the company. And the two biggest stars of the past few months, Austin Aries and Bully Ray, are now fighting because Bully Ray is supposedly banging Brooke Hogan. Yes you read that correctly.
So yeah, talk about wrestling here, unless Rankenphile decided to lock this thread as well.
HERE IS THE CARD FOR THE NEXT PPV!

Also who am I facing there? EBM?

this beautiful woman is making a pass at me but she has a freckle on her nose, HARUMPH
Just got the ROH show with Aries winning the title for a historic second time against Tyler Black and Jerry Lynn in the mail and it's a really good show. Might get the show with Black finally winning the title if it ever goes on sale.
was deciding who gets to face Wirehead.
Shouldn't I be facing Gran Unco?
Lethal Lottery would have been the best course of action, obvi.

and that poster is awesome, even if there is a lack of me, though I can't really tell
Already took place. I won via count out.
Edit: And the poster is awesome. Great job Pwnan.
That's what I get for arguing with him most recently.

I'm just happy I made a high-profile cage match despite slacking off on my wrestling posting for a bit.

HOLD ON A SECOND PLAYA
All those matches are now on for Survivor Series. BOOK IT.

Not too broken up about it, though. Not since they decided "screw it" on booking the actual SS match.
I miss when they had a card full of those matches, with nifty team names and all. Felt like comic book crossover territory stuff, like the wrestling version of Avengers or something.
Like Mega Man Legends? Then check out my story, Legends of the Halcyon Era - An Adventure in the World of Mega Man Legends on TMMN and AO3!
I made a game, it has penguins in it. It's pay what you like on Gumroad.
Currently Ebaying Nothing at all but I might do in the future.
Also, I think in a handicap match the handicapped person's score should be multiplied by either 1.5 or 2.
soon

That is John Cena Making a Wish and presenting a brand new wheelchair to a young fan who has cerebral palsy.

Don't get me wrong I think his character is in desparate need of a change but he's never going full heel again.
