Guys, I'm legit shook right now. I came home this weekend from school, and sometime in between visits my little siblings have become huge WWE fans without any of my doing. I just got done listening to my 7 year old sister go through all the current storylines with me, and told me all the wrestlers she likes and doesn't. We also looked through the WWE Magazine with Cena on the cover.

Wrestlers she likes:
AJ Lee
Kaitlyn
Randy Orton (Who is also her secret crush)
Triple H
Big E Langston

Wrestler she hates:
John Cena
Daniel Bryan
Curtis Axel
Alberto Del Rio

Other wrestlers she told me about were CM Punk, Damien Sandow, Sheamus, Jericho, Ryback and Roman Reigns (She didn't know the other two members of The Shield). She also knew who Paul Heyman was.

Unfortunately, she didn't know who Bo Dallas is.

what is wwe doing to young girls? they are inserting the ideal that you can be attracted to only shapely handsome men. what does that mean for big bellied men?

 

[Kaladin]

AIW player showing up for you yet Bootaaay?

 

[British Monsoon]

Nope, but SMV tweeted that it should be live any time now.

*edit, and now it's live.

 

[Kaladin]

And we have wrestling!

or not....the feed is stalling.

 

[British Monsoon]

I had to switch down to 480p, but it seems fine now.

The Sex Bob-Ombs vs The Jollyville Fuck-Its up first!

The Sex Bob-Ombs vs The Jollyville Fuck-Its up first!

It's still stalling on 480p, at least it's not lines across the screen like on 720p.

Indie iPPV gonna indie iPPV.

 

[British Monsoon]

OK, it's completely stalled for me now.

Scratch SMVOD off the list, now everyone's fucking up iPPVs (except New Japan).

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

I'm now regretting my weak will and caving into temptation.

 

[Kaladin]

They took the stream entirely offline.

WTF.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

They took the stream entirely offline.

WTF.

I'm guessing they needed to do it to try and fix the issues.

 

[slightconfuse]

Kind of glad I waited for the VOD on this one

 

[British Monsoon]

Really hope they can get it sorted soon, thankfully they started with the match I care the least about and not Gargano vs Page.

Fuck's sake, I might just stick to New Japan & Dragon Gate for iPPVs.

 

[Kaladin]

Indie iPPV fans have to be masochists to keep coming back to this.

 

[British Monsoon]

OK, it looks to be working now, hopefully they can keep it up.

ACH vs Louis Lyndon up next.

Spoiler

The Jollyville Fuck-Its

won the opening match none of us could see.

 

[Kaladin]

Well, it's back....not sure what is happening now. I think we missed the whole first match.

 

[British Monsoon]

Oh, bummer. ACH is out with a concussion.

The returning Flip Kendrick faces Louis Lyndon instead. Battle of AeroForm!

 

[Kaladin]

Great crowd for such a small room.

 

[Kaladin]

The hell....they turned off the feed after that match went nearly perfect.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

I quite liked that match, the finish consisting of Louis hitting about 3 impact finishers in sequence into a submission was a little over the top though.

 

[British Monsoon]

Man, did someone kick out a cable? It seems like everything that can go wrong is going wrong with this stream.

I quite liked that match, the finish consisting of Louis hitting about 4 finishers in sequence was a little over the top though.

There may be quite a bit of that tonight...especially in Elgin vs Alexander. If the stream's actually working, that is.

 

[Kaladin]

Via SMV Twitter:

Our system is overheating, we will be taking a short break after this match to re-boot the computer. Sorry for any inconvenience!

What the hell man?

 

[British Monsoon]

Jesus. This is really poor.

I shouldn't be at all surprised, but SMVOD have been trouble-free up to this point. Shame.

*edit, and we're back. The Duke with #NIXON is in the ring.

 

[Kaladin]

It's back....I think #Nixon is in the ring.

 

[Kaladin]

Eric Ryan really wants to be CM Punk....you can tell they sent these guys out here to stall while they fix the feed.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

If the issue's with the PC they're using overhearting then I think they're/we're fucked.

 

[British Monsoon]

Seems that way. Even though the stream's running now, I'm getting buffering every 30 seconds or so.

*sigh*

 

[Kaladin]

*sigh*

This match has been ok so far....knocking on wood.

 

[SoulPlaya]

 

[Kaladin]

Yeah, we're definitely going to get (R) Glenn Jacobs eventually.

 

[BronsonLee]

OK, it's completely stalled for me now.

Scratch SMVOD off the list, now everyone's fucking up iPPVs (except New Japan).

HEY WAIT A MI-no that's accurate

Doesn't seem like they're having a fun time, though. Be gentle to em

 

[Kaladin]

Well it was going good there for a while....stalled again.

 

[SoulPlaya]

Yeah, we're definitely going to get (R) Glenn Jacobs eventually.

At least he's expanded his fashion sense. Youthful look for him.

 

[British Monsoon]

Oh man, Matt Fitchett (one half of the Sex Bob-Ombs) apparently has been taken to hospital;

Also, this match was pretty great until they started doing the 'kicking out of each other's finishers' thing.

 

[Nocturnowl]

At least he's expanded his fashion sense. Youthful look for him.

Look at those flowing locks of hair, the power of youth ensures Kane will be around for many more years to come.

 

[British Monsoon]

Woo!!! WrassleGAF shout-out on AIW's iPPV!

Good going Sandman

 

[Kaladin]

Woo!!! WrassleGAF shout-out on AIW's iPPV!

Good going Sandman

At least he read it while the feed was going.

Batiri time

 

[Kaladin]

4 count for title matches is an interesting rule.

 

[British Monsoon]

Oh yeah...I forgot Hope & Change can only be pinned with a 4-count.

 

[SoulPlaya]

Look at those flowing locks of hair, the power of youth ensures Kane will be around for many more years to come.

I want Business Suit Libertarian Kane.

 

[gurudyne]

At least he's expanded his fashion sense. Youthful look for him.

It's wrong. Kane should be like a Power Ranger: when he's not in uniform, he should only wear clothes in his colors.

 

[Kaladin]

And we're buffering.

 

[Kaladin]

Well, that was a match.....the end was kinda meh, especially if The Batiri are gone.

 

[strobogo]

Poor Undertaker. Paul Bearer's family must have had much better hair. Paul had a head of hair when he died, Kane has the hair of a 25 year old. Undertaker went bald 12 years ago and didn't come to terms with it until last year.

 

[Kaladin]

Eh, typical re-start the match shenanigans. Batiri as champs should be amazing.

 

[British Monsoon]

Veda deserves a lot of credit for how well she takes those nasty-ass double team moves from The Batiri.

 

[SoulPlaya]

It's wrong. Kane should be like a Power Ranger: when he's not in uniform, he should only wear clothes in his colors.

You know, this makes sense, actually.

Poor Undertaker. Paul Bearer's family must have had much better hair. Paul had a head of hair when he died, Kane has the hair of a 25 year old. Undertaker went bald 12 years ago and didn't come to terms with it until last year.

Kane also has the much better family life. Kane wins, man.

 

[Kaladin]

AIW has been great for what I've been able to see. Looking forward to the second half of the card.

Bootaaay, is AAW really all no dq/no countouts, like old ECW? What's a good show to start with on them?

 

[strobogo]

But Kane had a way harder childhood, did he not? I mean, locked in a basement for years, thinking he was burned and not talking, then going to school and his love dying in a car wreck. How bad was Taker's, really? I guess he was responsible for killing his parents, though. That probably weighs on you after a while.

 

[British Monsoon]

Bootaaay, is AAW really all no dq/no countouts, like old ECW? What's a good show to start with on them?

My favourite show from AAW this year was probably EPIC from March - Jacobs vs Hollister and ACH vs Davey Richards were both great matches and there's some fun stuff on the undercard. I haven't got around to watching all of Day of Defiance from last month, but Mixed Martial Archie vs Davey and Richards & O'Reilly vs ACH & Elgin was a lot of fun. The main event of Sami vs Hollister was said to be excellent.

 

[blackaroni]

Anyone watching Piper and Flair on Celebrity Wife Swap?
