Why does everyone need to do fucking top rope spots?

they don't have effect of eveyone does it then no sells it.

Also those women letting a co-worker fall like that is disgusting.

This was more about bad camera work. It was actually a pretty good Bella move of Nikki pulling Brie out of the path of Charlotte. Not sure if Brie was supposed to fall, but the camera missed almost all of it.
 
I'm finally catching up on Lucha Underground. Just finished the episode that ended with the King Cuerno/Johnny Mundo countout brawl. King Cuerno is awesome. Pentagon Jr. is awesome. Drago is awesome. This show is great.

Wrestling is real

Beards are fake

Like I dunno if he bought it at a costume shop or just glued some random weave on his face.

Gotta keep some things kayfabe though, I guess.

I can't believe how uptight people got and took seriously about box art Mega Man. Like Jesus. It's like people can't even tell a joke to certain people on the internet about appearances without the fans getting into a violent rage

it really was megaman's best fighting game appearance

I mean look at that shit

it's box art mega man

Here's some old-school Piper stuff from Portland - WWE doesn't own this video library, so it'll likely never be on the network or a DVD set, but it's awesome to see just how over Roddy was in the Northwest;

. Roddy Piper vs Luke Williams - Hair Match - (Portland 1980/03/01)
. Roddy Piper & Mike Popovich vs Buddy Rose & Rip Oliver - (Portland 1980/09/06)
. Roddy Piper (c) vs Buddy Rose - 2/3 Falls - (Portland 1980/09/13)

Damn I miss those days.
Yeah it was carny as fuck but god damn the atmosphere was crazy especially live.

Recent NXT failure of such aside. I always enjoy a good hair vs hair match and pay-off in the WWE. Molly Holly, Vince, Kurt Angle, etc. So I ask all of you, who on the main roster would be best to lose their hair and make it amusing to see?

All three members of New Day I think would be great. Trying to stay positive, until they see their reflection.

I said it earlier, but Capcom's neglect of Mega Man is going to be less damaging to the brand than Inafune will be.

Keep in mind, while they 'ignored Mega Man' they put all this out
By put out you mean let other people make shit , while they do noting? What ever inafune has done is noting to what capcom done.

Dean Ambrose, he's halfway there already!!

Yeah capcom just sat there and let people run roughshod with the mega man license and they did nothing about it

use your brain, please

Capcom did two things in the past ten years with MM that were fantastic.

1. Megaman 9.
2. Getting him in Smash, if just for that amazing video.

Piper is amazing for always sticking to his guns. If your name wasn't Flair or Bret then he wouldn't job to you. Ever.

I am pretty sure the only reason Bryan has kept that beard and hair for so long is that he is saving it for a Hair match
 
If you thought Tough Enough wasn't enough of a mess already, then do I have good news for you.

Earlier this week we posted a WWE Tough Enough digital extra with the cameras catching coach Billy Gunn dressing down ZZ due to his performance. F4Wonline.com notes that the clip was released publicly because WWE officials want ZZ gone from the show after this week. Dave Meltzer noted that the impression he was given was that WWE set things up for ZZ to be gone last week but fans weren't manipulated the way WWE expected, so ZZ wasn't eliminated.

Sad news about Piper, RIP. Probably just as sad is the fact that his last public stories were about his podcast and Austin.
 

Aiii

So not worth it
If you thought Tough Enough wasn't enough of a mess already, then do I have good news for you.

Maybe if the goddamned fools actually had only wrestlers and maybe the MMA fighters in the competition instead of filling it with models they would have a chance.

This pisses me off, they fill the group with a bunch of roided up muscleheads that can't run a track without gassing out and they're then surprised the one guy that actually shows some personality gets popular? Big fucking shocker WWE.

Mada too though, but he's gone thanks to Miz. I guess the whole episode before this was aimed at getting rid of Patrick, that worked for them.

The only people I was vaguely interested in was Patrick, Mada and ZZ. And Sara Lee for reasons I can't understand. I guess she's not as much of a vapid reality TV shit stirrer as the rest.

My other half isn't into wrestling, or reality shows, and only likes ZZ.

Lol

The show is a fucking mess.

I hope zz wins and this is a wake up call for Vince considering he has been skipping smackdown tapings for this.

Might explain miz doing what he did.

Yup. Only reason Josh was in the bottom 4 was to get the women votes away from Patrick or zz.

The show is such a blatant work but wwe can't work a work into a shoot so they work themselves into another work.
