This dude will never be forgiven, and I dont remember why we are supposed to hate him. Its been more than 3 years, people cant let it go.

My favorite thing is the recap video of the feud.

In real life, the I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU was met with one of the loudest face pops in recent memory.

In the recap video, the I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU was met with melodramatic evil music. How could this evil monster do something so evil to everyone's favorite superstar, Roman Reigns?

They don't like him or hate him, but they definitely prefer Braun and root for him. They thought him flipping the ambulance was the coolest thing ever.

If only all wrestling fans were like your kids and treated Roman with complete indifference we'd be done with the failed Roman experiment already. Instead of booing the shit out of him he needs to come out to complete silence.

Read Scott Keith's review. Orton v Wyatt got the full -***** routine. Warrior vs Hogan from Halloween Havoc 98 has competition now as worst PPV "match" ever.

Don't think anyone is using a power bomb as a finish right now, would be a lot better.

A power bomb is too "pretty", requires technique so I don't think it would match with Braun. The running slam fits him pretty well.

This will never happen and is an unreasonable thing to expect when the wrestler in question is the one being pushed the most in the entire company.

Thankfully I won't know because I'm not watching but I imagine it'll happen within the first five to ten minutes as they keep the same format they've had for 20 years.

Poor Kevin Owens

I called it!



Also, Alvarez is a Sheamus fan:
Bryan Alvarez is in rare form on the Bryan and Vinny Show tonight. As part of an hour long rant on a range of subjects he had this comment about the Hardys vs. Sheamus and Cesaro match:

"Jeff Hardy was not moving. He was not crawling. He was absolutely, positively as still as could be. He sat up and he gave himself to his opponent to kick him. Sheamus had a non-moving target. All he had to do was kick him in the chest, the shoulder or whatever. This fucking guy kicks Jeff Hardy right in the fucking mouth and knocks his tooth out.
Number one: How you can be that bad at your job is hard to fathom. Number two: Jeff wasn't moving a fucking muscle. This guy kicked him in the mouth and knocked his tooth out.

If this would have been the first time, fine. No - Sheamus is the guy who ended the career of Daniel Bryan! How? Well, Daniel Bryan was laying there, giving the guy his head, Sheamus booted him as hard as he fucking could, gave him a concussion and that was the end of Daniel Bryan's career!

You fucking suck at your job! I would NEVER wrestle you! In a thousand years, for no amount of money, would I wrestle Sheamus. I have no respect for him as a worker. I would not hire him. Quite frankly, if it were my company I'd fire him! I'd go, 'Head out there, get on the indy scene and practice because you suck, and if you get better you can come back.' Can we fucking - stop - hurting people?"

I really find it strange how WWE tries to write the narrative, and how much its thrown back in their face. its really comical, and I like to see them scramble to rewrite history.
 
Has anyone noticed it seems like NJPW has solved the issue with some of their older guys musical rights in the last couple of months?

Watching 4/29 now, and Tenzan's got his proper music (In his case I actually liked his dub theme, though at least we can now hear the announcers).

I've never heard of any of those things.

Sandman is one of the best comics ever imo. Really good read.

I don't get how stars work, does it go from 0 straight to -5? Or is there actually a -1, -2, etc.

Calling that match a MINUS FIVE STARS match is overexaggerating.

Negative stars are used when a match is so bad it can negatively affect the entire wrestling industry and have far-reaching unforeseen consequences.

I don't know if that's true, but it sounds pretty good.

0 stars is a DUD, and then it does go -1, -2, etc. -5 is reserved for the worst match of the year.

Slander? I have 10 years of footage showing Sheamus is an unsafe worker and terrible at his job.
Ok Mr. 4 piledrivers in one match.

The problem with the House of Horrors to me wasn't just that it was bad. It was so bad it was good in some ways (I was initially laughing my ass off), but it went on about 5 times too long because whoever wrote it failed to understand why people liked the Final Deletion. The Final Deletion was in on the joke the whole time.

How are things, Angry Grimace?

I watched Payback last night in my tiny new apartment with my cats. My dog wanted to watch too, but she is a Corgi and has tiny little legs so she couldn't see the screen.

Things could be worse, I suppose. I kind of realized that a lot of the problems I had with my soon-to-be-ex-wife is that she basically doesn't like anything except work. It's not so much a case that she dislikes everything, she's just ambivalent towards everything other than work and never engages with anything enough to be curious about the world.

She used to say she was really introverted, but I kind of realized its not just that, she actively doesn't take any interest in anything other than working.

1.) I'm glad you have some animals. Really. That's helpful during the hard times (daddeh).

2.) It was never going to work out with someone who doesn't appreciate a handspring elbow.
