July Wrasslin' |OT| All this G1 talk is making me Climax.

I think you might want to change up your diet a bit

I am not saying Joe looked bad against Brock (he looked better than most people that fought Brock in the last years), just that I wished he was able to take more offense from Brock before losing. Maybe kicking of the F-5 and then Brock giving him another to win the match or Brock just giving Joe two F-5 to put him down, specially because Brock was about to fade and then he suddenly gets back and pulls and F-5 like nothing. Brock did not even struggle to cover Joe after being for a good amount of time in Joe submission and pulling a F-5 suddenly.

Yeah, Ambrose looked like shit against Brock, but it was a really resilient shit, like the one you try to flush down, but just refuses to go down.
I think you are reading too much into a B PPV match.

It is just a personal wish, nothing more, and I had to answer because somehow saying than Ambrose looked more resilient than Joe was interpreted as saying that Ambrose looked better than Joe in their matches against Brock...

this is kind of obvious but you know why last night's segment was so good?

no script. brock and joe were actually just having an argument.

then roman comes in with some scripted lines and you can just *feel* the lameness kind of come back for a minute, but joe doesn't put up with it.
Joe is white-hot right now and you can tell he brings out the best in Brock. Reigns is a wet blanket compared to the two of them.

Best case scenario, we get a triple threat at SummerSlam and Joe pins Reigns to get the belt. I think Joe's got way too much heat at this point for WWE to ignore it.

Vince always liked Joe, wanted him when he was in TNA, so it would not surprised me if he gets the belt.

If I remember well Vince wanted him to be Umaga.

Ambrose didn't look resilient, he looked like a fucking geek Bork was toying with. The story with Joe was that he got caught slipping for an instant, not that he was "put down". he had Bork on defense for most of the match and got right back up after the F5. It was an out of nowhere rollup in the form of an F5, it spoke nothing of the amount of punishment Joe can take.

yeah and this was kind of a surprise for how good a match it was and the kind of chemistry brock and joe have together, so i don't think it's gonna be the defining match between them. i mean i HOPE it won't be. gotta see these two big fellas clash again.

My quick take on this is that it will be a triple threat and Joe wins. Braun "I'm not fished with you" Strowman comes out and beats Roman after the match.

The energy Brock and Joe have together is incredible. Really feels like two monsters just going all out.

Exactly right. Which is why even though reigns is acting like a douche, and that's a good direction for the character, he still sucks because the material he's forced to memorize and deliver is just garbage.

Cena and Miz are really the only two guys capable of getting across that heavily scripted stuff well. Reigns, Seth, Bray, Orton... painful.

Jericho is also really good with scripts, he interjects his own language through out, with is the key.

watching THAT episode of WWE ECW (the one with Big Show vs Batista @ Hammerstein Ballroom) for the first time since it aired, god fucking damn this feels dated and tone deaf 11 years later.

Tommy Dreamer is busted open, wipes blood on his hand, puts Kelly Kelly on his knee, lifts her skirt and starts spanking her so that her butt gets all bloody.

oh shit, forgot this is also CM Punk's debut

Oh yeah, jericho for sure.

Also, first mayweather vs mcgregor press conference about to start. Watch for a clinic on how to sell a combat sports event by the two best promos in the business.

They've been in fights and can sell believably.

I wager Roman Reigns has never been in a physical altercation in his life.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
How much is Vince gonna shell out for McGregor after Mayweather deals with him

He literally cannot afford McGregor.

McGregor is making like 6 times Brock Lesnar's salary. For this one fight.

mcgregor will probably show up at some point for fun, probably some kind of wrestlemania appearance, but yeah vince is too small time to afford him and when you've got like 200 million dollars i don't really see how anyone could 'buy' you even if vince had all the money in the world
