The WWE / TNA Wrestling Thread

That must have been a shock for them in the middle of the night, they are having a nice sleep when suddenly you do an elbow drop off the top of your chest of drawers.

 

from about 4 years old to about 12/13 I wanted to be one, started lifting small weights in my shed when i was about 7, was determined to be a wrestler, then Eddie Guerrero died, and I completely lost my intrest in wrestling, only started watching it again 1 or 2 years ago.

Anyway, anyone up watching tonight?

 

I'll be watching Raw tonight

I'm watching King of the Ring 2002 right now as warm up

 

hoping it wont be *, wonder if they are going to do anything to follow up Cena walking off of pipers pit

Still love watching this promo - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuOavBgmsIY

 

missed it last night due to Cena being given the mic and I fell asleep

 

You didn't miss much, apart from Nash vs Santino and Cena burying Ryder. Nash vs HHH at TLC in a Ladder Match is now official and so is Punk vs Del Rio vs Miz in a Triple Threat TLC.

Lilian Garcia is returning as announcer for SmackDown, full time, beginning tonight.

 

- Lilian Garcia wrote the following on Twitter regarding her return to WWE as a SmackDown announcer:

"Yes! It's true!! All happening so fast! I am returning to WWE as the SmackDown Announcer!! So excited!! And video trailer out tomro! Big wk"

 

That was a joke to put Nash against Santino, one of the most boring fights ever. Loved Cena performing the Attitude Adjustment on Mark Henry though.

 

Agree about Nash and Santino. What a horrible "match". I really wanted Brodus Clay to be his opponent, as he's been scheduled to return for weeks now, but still hasn't reappeared.

 

Same mate, dying to see Brodus Clay take on some of the RAW roster as he was pretty much dominating Superstars, Funkman promised him a start a few weeks ago and was also on the phone to him during a backstage taping. Heard rumours that Ziggler may be getting a slot in the main event at TLC? Possibly turning it into a Fatal Fourway, hope so - could make interesting viewing.

 

I'm starting to find John Laurinaitis hilarious, I love it when he went -

"Let me take this opportunity to wish John Morrison all the best in his future endeavours."

Also, I love his new nickname, think it suits him perfectly; Mr. Excitement.

 

I feel the same mate. Couldn't be arsed with him at the start, but his dry sense of humour suits me right down to the bone. I love deadpan comedians and big Laurinaitis is like the pro wrestling version of that now, ever since RAW on Monday.

Has anyone else noticed in promos and backstage segments how he's taller than half of the roster? I think Nash is the only I've saw that towers over him. HHH, Del Rio, Punk, they're always looking up at him.

 

i miss the days when superstars had gimmicks

 

Same. Nowadays almost every new wrestler who debuts is always the same. Short hair, built like a tank, black trunks, covered in fake tan with no personality which why so many wrestlers are failing to get over with the crowd. Gone are the days of colourful characters/gimmicks like Hogan and Savage etc.

Just wanted to say that (if I'm not incorrect) I'm loving the fact that Wade Barrett is getting a push again.

 

there's no folk going about as vampires (Gangrel)
no raging alkys kicking * out everyone (Stone Cold)

it's like they have never heard of gimmicks anymore

 

Curious, what is so interesting about Wade Barrett getting a push?

He has about as much charisma as a street lamp...

 

Barret is decent for a man his size and alright on the mic but he doesnt have the look of a world champion imo.
