    So, this is the new thread, huh?

    hqdefault.jpg

    About the rumor of NXT to FS1 and using main roster talent, it need not be a bad thing. In fact, it's been done before.

    Remember Sami Zayn and Cesaro? Charlotte and Natalya?

    Heck, Tyler Breeze and Fandango are there right now.

    Yea but that also means Vince is at the booth/creative most likely


    also Budokan was HOT for this Archer/EVIL match

    God while the upper card of WCW in its latter era was often trash, reminding me of stuff like the filthy animalz and three count has made me nostalgic in ways I was not expecting.

    The only bad part of Filthy Animalz is it reminds me of unmasked mysterio and nobody should have to do that.

    Developments at last night's House Of Glory show:

    LAX said goodbye to the company. Indy dates are running out, goodbyes are running out, and all the while Jericho's mystery partners for the Oct 2 AEW TNT debut remain mysteries...

    Young Bucks vs Private Party will open the show on the Oct 9 AEW TNT card

    there will never be an undercard as exciting as wcw's was, since it was attitude era-esque in that everyone had a story, but like also pretty much everyone was really good at wrestling.

    Do title changes in unannounced matches count? Can't see any tag titles on the card at the minute. Though I couldn't tell you who the tag champs on any brand were either apart from the NXT ones.

    G1 Night 17:
    What is with these finishes so far, I wouldn’t have bet on Lance defeating EVIL, and I feel like Sanada had a good handle bullet club’s bullshit and still ate the pin (I liked the double paradise lock).
    I can’t decide if I want Ospreay to beat Tanahashi or not, I feel like it would be a good pas the torch moment with Ospreay taking that whole attack for the next generation line but at the same time Tanahashi’s promo after his last loss was just depressing and I don’t know if I can take another one.

    Damn Ospreay vs. Tana was a hell of a match, Okada vs. Ibushi didn’t really do much for me though. Also throws my prediction of Okada vs. Goto our the window.

    I went with only one really optimistic pick for Summerslam.
    Kofi retains. Against Orton I consider that a super-optimistic prediction.

    Everything else is just "business is usual" or "the booking team have gotten into Vince's stash again".

    Always, but note that an Uso was barred from entering Canada due to pending charge.

    It is bananas to me that they would have Asuka have that record shattering reign that lasted for years and then follow it up with another incredibly lengthy title reign

    Shayna is coming up on 450 days combined reigns

    Of the last 1200 days, almost 950 of them had Asuka or Shayna as NXT Women's champ

    That might be the dumbest off a ladder 'super' move I've ever seen.

    Edit: I guess Adam Cole truly is the best in the world now.

    I’m sick of these overly dangerous moves then NXT does for a a fraction of the pay the main roster gets

    @DJ Eebs Lots of talk about Davenport in this Seth special. "I wasn't supposed to make it, my town was too small."

  • DJ EebsDJ Eebs Moderator, Administrator admin
    it always weirds me out when people talk about how small Davenport is, there's like...a hundred thousand people there, and like, four hundred thousand in its metro area

    like, I get it, but like...I feel like we're operating on different definitions of "small"

    yeah that ain't small

    Now he's walking back even that and saying Demon cheated with the cinder block (which he didn't call out during his post-match promo then, even though it was constantly shown on replay even then) so he won't retire

    So Demon threatened to cinder block him again
