    Bo Dallas is pretty great.

    Only .56% of Nirya's posts contain the words "Bo Dallas". If we double that to account for the harder to search single "Bo" we can estimate that only 1.12% contain something pertaining to Bo Dallas.

    I find this number completely unacceptable.

    the Michael Cole vs Jerry Lawler feud is easily the worst fucking thing I've experienced since I started watching wrestling again

    jesus, nothing going on now even compares

    When did you start watching again?

    I'm pretty sure we can find something else since then that was just as terrible.

    pretty much right around the time Miz won the title from Orton

    and no, no, you're not going to top any of the lawler/cole matches

    What was your opinion on Heyman/Punk/Undertaker using Paul Bearer's real life death as part of a storyline?

    That's the only thing I can really think of that might be worse than Lawler/Cole and even then, that depends on how you view real tragedies being used as part of wrestling theater.

    Alternatively, Kevin Owens is an awesome wrestler and dedicated family man. Plus, he hates everyone, and I can identify with that.

    For once something good to say about TNA: they didn't mess up Xavier when they had him

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=182Rsxb_jns his entrance for the first 30 seconds are the only must-watch part of the video

    if there is any person associated with wrestling that I can buy as okaying that story, it's paul bearer

    New Day, Becky and KO are at the top of my list of current WWE wrestlers. Probably Sasha, too

  • ChillyWillyChillyWilly Registered User regular
    I like Geebs' list, but I would add Cesaro in there.

    any time Raw just goes "okay here's a match that's guaranteed to have good wrestling" they get some good will from me.

    The Usos are so boring!

    And Dean and Roman are fun but have been backstage/in-ring buddies for what like 6 months now

    I love them but it's gotten a little stale

    It took until we saw the resolution after the commercial break, but I actually ended up liking the opening segment, even though it had the hyper-annoying "face steals the title" thing. Unlike most such bits, they actually did something with it and resolved it semi-believably. And of course it just gave the Authority one more way to fuck with Roman. (I also kind of like that Roman didn't give it back to HHH, instead handing it to Steph. Like, "Who are you kidding, Hunter? She's the real boss here.")

  • BloodsheedBloodsheed Registered User regular
    I think the announcers have now repeated the previous backstage segment 6 times, in a row, during this match.

    It did make it pretty obvious that the actual feud here isn't Roman/Sheamus, it's Roman/HHH.

    I disagree! They can be great, but their act is over enough that they don't need to do anything except their entrance and middling suicide dives. And people that can be better, but the WWE doesn't want them to be is too common.

    That said, the Usos were still a lynchpin of the best PWG match that WWE ever put on.

    Few things I enjoy more in wrestling than smooth transitions from moves into pins.

    I'm not sure I agree with putting Reigns in another WWE Title match he is essentially fated to lose, even if the odds are going to be way against him. Hopefully the match ends up with like fifteen run-ins before it ever starts.

    ... you know what, I'm not sure I ever actually watched that. Hm. I think I started with the main show and never went back to the preshow. I forget?

    Will make a point of watching it though, thanks. <3
