Brock has been wasted in the WWE so far. His promo work in the UFC and in ring trolling were great. The WWE restrains him in the area of showmanship.

He's done alright, but nothing compares to that promo he cut after one of the UFCs that just...was amazing. Let me see if I can find it.

EDIT: I can't fucking find it. Lambda Piscium may have it on hand. Great promo.

The one thing I'd recommend more people try is going to live local wrestling. Yes it is everything bad and all of the worst fans are going to be there, but it is a totally different experience and unique to any other performance or sport you could attend. Also it can be interesting seeing guys go from your local indy then start appearing on bigger promotions or NXT/WWE.

Agree completely, a bad show can still be a ton of fun and there's a lot to enjoy in a live show.

Except for IWA/Mid-South. Don't go to those.

Some of those cosplay girls look absolutely incredible. I know people say stuff like
"well why don't just watch porn bro if your going to be looking at that."

I just think that train of thought is dumb. Sexy but not porn can be very appealing.

Yup it's absolutely not the same thing. The girls are great.

Brock Lesnar's the man. He's better now than 2002 IMO. His match with Punk may have been his best ever and his match with Cena was awesome as well.

Like him or not, he understands wrestling psychology and is a goddamn prodigy. He could be the future of this business 100% if he wants. Great hand, loves to learn, A+ all around. I love Lesnar.

G-Fex/Nobody broke that Orchid dancing gif to NeoGAF, I think he's earned an esteemed position.

I should add that unlike Rock I don't care if Brock fights four times a year because every segment or match he has is awesome.

Live wrestling is... I kinda don't like it. I like wrestling, sometimes. But I don't like people, especially in large groups. Especially when you see someone really marking out for Adam Bomb and you're like, "... why the fuck do you like ADAM BOMB?" and then you realize you're an asshole, because who cares what some other guy likes?

Rock matches have been serious disappointments.

But despite what people have said, build to ONCE IN A LIFETIME PART 1 was actually great. Might be different now, but I felt legit heat. You could say I was even maybe a little, legit shook.

Underrated as a rivalry because ring result wasn't the best.

I won't have you badmouthing Adam Bomb/Wrath's physique. Dude was gifted. Great look. Everything else, not so much.

Yknow thinking back, Kronik was a gimmick for the wrong team, really.

I took a casual fan to his first wwe live event and he seriously couldn't deal with the fact that he couldn't hear the commentary. I don't know how he thought it would be blasted over the pa system but yeah. Totally ruined experience for him.

He was throwing those stupid footballs to people, and the show was at a minor league baseball field. Wrong sport!

I think over half the guys I saw that night are dead now. Adam Bomb squashed Rad Radford.

Bullet club in PWG would be Hype

They'd fit in perfect, they're already packaged in PWG. They stand on a trash bag apron, so all you gotta do is tie it at the top and you can put Devitt where he belongs.

Hey, that's AIW! PWG have a reeeeeeeeeal apron.
see what I did there?

Also, Nakamura seems to be almost everyone's gateway drug to New Japan. He's just that awesome. YeaOH!

Angela Fong. Which is pretty funny considering they let Su Yung(?) date fucking gross old man Lalwer but OH NO TOPLESS IN FILM

Yes, Angela Fong was the one I couldn't recall the name of.

Kenzo Suzuki's wife Hiroko? She wasn't a diva per se but she was there for a while. Only other one I can think of was an ECW announcer/interviewer who was fired by WWE when it was discovered she appeared topless in a movie.

I honestly forgot Hiroko and Kenzo Suzui were in WWE, and looking at one of the promos it's most likely due to "don't let them speak English well" treatment.

Which turned out for the best, she got to do well in HUSTLE as a manager before becoming a model and spokesperson for her region and Kenzo got groped by Hard Gay... okay maybe not for him. Still he good matches before Kenzo went to Mexico.

Akira Hokuto! She wrassled with a broken neck and then took piledrivers in a return match. Also Aja Kong, though lesser known than Bull in the states, I'm guessing.

The whole mess for Akira Hokuto between losing the CMLL title, being sued for contract breach, WCW not properly paying for a hospital visit after they assured her they would, and just the waste that was the WCW Women's Championship tends to make me not think of her as ever more than a guest star rather then a regular women's wrestler in the States. However obviously she did get around at least enough to make a name for herself, as did Aja Kong.

Has Paige ever defended her championship?

Twice now. Once against Summer Rae and Natalya for television, several times on house shows against Bayley, Emma, Charlotte, or a WWE wrestler like Alica Fox.

An NXT wrestler.

I'm still not sure how Mercedes KV (now Sasha) got picked over Ivy Fit when they were both scouted from the same match. Okay so Sasha Banks isn't awful in NXT exactly, but Ivy Fit actually is far more suited to WWE style already.

I think she has the look they are going for right now, and her young age (only 21 or 22) means she can have a long stay in developmental to get good and still be very young coming to the main roster.
She has improved a lot in the ring since she arrived, at least, and she'll be in NXT for a few years yet. Now she's gotta work on that major acting deficiency...

It was in the Observer that given their multi million dollar performance facility, they want to recruit young people to train at length in the best facility. You'd notice the experienced indie guys they sign like Sami Zayn tend to come right to NXT and get a push, but they've got dozens of young talent getting trained off-screen. The idea is the more you train up, the higher the chances of finding a standout star amongst them (train 70 people and you could find 10 new stars in them).

LOL I was going to post this

Well, yeah, but let me have the fantasy, damnit! Bork as a fulltime freelancer in Japan would rule so much. Bork vs Suzuki! Bork vs Akebono! Bork vs Kikutaro! Bork vs Dino! Bork vs Bob Sapuuuuuuu!

God I want Brock back... It's like they say, you don't realize what you have until it's gone. And after the Axel and Rybotch programs with Punk, it really shows how important Brock was to that whole feud.

The advantages of jello love

Study: women with big butts are smarter and healthier

Scientists from the University of Oxford have discovered that women with larger than average butts are not only increasingly intelligent but also very resistant to chronic illnesses.

According to ABC News, the results found that women with bigger backsides tend to have lower levels of cholesterol and are more likely to produce hormones to metabolize sugar. Therefore, women with big butts are less likely to have diabetes or heart problems.

And having a big butt requires an excess of Omega 3 fats, which have been proven to catalyze brain development. The researchers also found that the children born to women with wider hips are intellectually superior to the children of slimmer, less curvy mothers
