Official WWE/TNA Wrestling Thread

I'll go with a RAW prediction that The Undertaker comes out at the end of the show to cut a promo to thank the fans, Triple H, etc (trying not to break character). He's about to announce he's done when Lesnar's music hit and Brock comes out and brings up how Undertaker challenged him at a UFC event a few years ago and now he's ready to accept. And thus Lesnar/Undertaker at WM29 is set up. Hopefully Lesnar will come out with Heyman but that's wishful thinking.

Or you can substitute The Rock's name in there for The Undertaker with The Rock saying he's beaten everyone and Brock comes out.

Either way I hope Brock freaking comes out haha.

 

More silly and more ridiculous.

 

I only get the major ones. SS, Survivor, Rumble and mania. No way I buy the other ones.

 

For some reason I dont feel excited for Raw at all tonight.


Mark Henry vs CM Punk for WWE title. I've been wanting to see this match honestly but I doubt it ends clean.

The Rock: "Do you know how much you have to SUCK to get cut from the canadian football league"

Rock proclaims he will be WWE champion.....SOMEDAY

Rock hugs some blonde chick and kisses her. She cries. Thats Obama like right there.

Santino hiding behind Brodus Clay that was pretty funny the way he acted all tough behind him.

Cole and Lawler acting like they have never seen Albert before

 

Can't wait to hear CM Punk complain about how The Rock wants the WWE title.

Interesting that the WWE acknowledged that Lord Tensai aka Prince Albert aka Albert aka A-Train used to wrestle in the WWE. Usually they just pretend like the past never existed.

 

They halfway did pretend though. They acted like they had no clue who the **** he was.

 

Jericho slipping + the bottle exploding in his hand = priceless

 

The slip was amazing. He goes to kick him and BOOM. The bottle was great too. Double Jericho fail

Jericho is the best in the world at what he does. Apparently what he does doesn't include walking on slippery surfaces.

 

I like how Daniel Bryan is getting his name chanted, while the crowd couldn't care less about either Sheamus or Del Rio. But please WWE keep forcing these two guys down our throats.

By the way it's almost criminal how Bryan was jobbed out at WM and completely forgotten about. But maybe it's a blessing because I think this will actually get Bryan more over. Of course that just means the WWE will continue to depush him.

 

Not a fan of Sheamus but if they were to stop shoving him in my face, I could appreciate Del Rio.

 

I think he's a bit overrated. If he wasn't Mexican he wouldn't have gotten the push that he did. He actually never should have went over Punk over the summer anyway.

 

alex riley was getting his name chanted as well.

 

I agree with pretty much all you said. However he is a decent wrestler, and I could like his character if he would stop with the "My name is ALBERTO DEL RIO" thing.

Also I thought Albert looked kind of slow, but also pretty dominant. I bought it way more than Brodus Clay.

 

Well Brodus is obviously a comedy act. I thought the Albert match was a little awkward, I thought we would have seen him pull off some more power based moves instead of striking ones.

 

The first elbow spin thing was a bit awkward. I thought the rest was pretty good though. I like how relentless he was. He could have easily gotten the pin early (the way Brodus did in his squash matches) but he chose to destroy Riley.

 

I'm actually pretty interested in hearing what Cena has to say, it will be the first time since I believe 2005 where I actually care about him. And I bet the majority of wrestling fans feel the same way, that's why it was the right move to have him lose. The possibilities on where his character can go from here are endless. I just hope we don't get the same vanilla Cena he have been getting since 2005.

 

I think Cena is pretty much terrible on the mic so I'm kind of eh on it. I was kind of hoping he would just disappear....although I knew that wouldn't happen.

 

Damn you go Ryder.

 

Wow **** this company I'm done watching their ****ing bull***

 

Once again another missed opportunity with someone that's over with the crowd. Why not have Ryder just go nuts on The Miz and snap and beat the crap out of him? Instead he just falls lower and lower down the ladder. Poor Zack, he's got no shot now to do anything meaningful again I fear.

 

I thought good businesses give people what they want. Obviously you can't just make every match go the way the people want but sometimes you just flat out NEED TO. I'm watching TNA with way more passion from now on. They actually give a flying F what fans want.

 

Okay the Cena "You're A Loser" chant just made me feel so tingly inside though.

I love the Rock but Cena will get some respect from me if he hits the AA on The Rock if he comes down to the ring.

 

The crowd has been great tonight.

 

Brock is going to come out. You watch.

And yes the crowd has been great tonight. Well done Miami.

 

The look on the face of Cena when they chanted "We want lesnar" looked legit, and Cena is a terrible actor. So maybe it was legit

 

@WWEUniverse just posted that Lesnar arrived in the building.

 

lol more Daniel bryan chants

 

Now THAT's how you pop a crowd. The WWE can start to print money now.

 

No Heyman? booooo

 

OMG Did anyone else see the guy in the CM punk shirt dancing next to the totally not amused other guy? It was animated gif worthy.

 

Lesnar doesn't look as crazy as he used to but I'm not complaining.

 

It's kind of scary how good that ending was and how big a pop Lesnar got. Every single WWE superstar in the back minus The Rock would kill to get that reaction. Again kudos to the Miami crowd they really help make that moment. Should be interesting to see how much of a schedule Brock will work.

And again, can't wait to hear CM Punk complain about how Brock is back taking people's spots and doesn't love wrestling because he left it for the UFC.

 

According to people at RAW tonight, Cena is still laying in the middle of the ring and the crowd is now chanting "F--- You Cena". Oh man I wish that could have made it on the air.

 

That was the best ending to Raw I've seen in a long long time. Wish Lesnar would have talked though.

I enjoyed the Punk vs Henry match a lot tonight. Not really sure exactly why but to me somehow their styles mixed WAY better than expected.

 

No you don't want Lesnar talking in that spot. He's an *** kicking machine, his actions speak louder than words, less is more. I do wonder if the WWE will try to bring in Paul Heyman as his mouth piece as Brock is weak on the mike.

 

I don't mean cutting a full promo or anything. Maybe just a one liner like Kane had with Orton but not as ****ty. Though thinking about it I guess you are right.

 

Nah you don't have him say anything, that's for next week. You build the next week's program on what will Lesnar say.

 

They do that every single time someone comes back though. Its getting kind of repetitive. To me anyway.

 

By the way I think we're going to end up seeing The Rock vs. Brock for the WWE title at WM29, but won't be announced until next year after the Rumble. I can't see how or why the WWE would hold back doing a Brock/Cena program for a year.

 

I really really wish Rock and Brock would both come back full time. That could be a really entertaining WM match if they actually had a fued build up to it.
