The Wrestling Thread

[Xeogred]

I'm a little ignorant since I don't always keep up with it thesedays, but man that RAW was kind of terrible. This Triple H thing is getting pretty bad. Is this like, bad guy wrestlers vs good guy company boss? wtf... lol.

[Xeogred]

LOSE it.

...

Has Austin ever said anything about Cena? Way to demote the cage.

Del Rio was so lame on commentary. He tells Punk, "I'm going to kick your butt" and Punk's reaction was like, "kick my butt? Really?". Like is that really the best this over-rated guy can come up with?

Del Rio has been all the rage on every wrestling podcast I listen to, but he's got nothing. He's just such a generic, one dimensional character. If I were to point out what makes other guys such great characters I'd point out how R Truth is both funny and unpredictable and does crazy perfectly, how Punk is the voice of the "smart" wrestling fans and is the snarkiest son of a bitch I've ever seen, how Mark Henry has an anger and intensity that you can feel through your tv and it's all justified when you look at how both the WWE and the wrestling community have not taken him seriously for 15 long years, how Christian has so perfectly settled into this whiny, sneaky, opportunistic heel who will get what he wants by any shameless method available including using lawyers and winning a world title on a freaking DQ, how Miz views himself as a wrestling celebrity yet still has this seething anger that comes from feeling that he still has to proof himself, then there's Ziggler. If you saw him these past two weeks, he's becoming quite the entertaining heel and I'm starting to think that he should have long gotten the push that's been given to Del Rio

Del Rio is just a rich guy who thinks he deserves everything, a.k.a. JBL Lite. I say Lite because JBL actually knew how to drop a good promo and incense a crowd(remember when he showed up on WWE's first One Night Stand pay per view?)

Del Rio ain't got nothin' mang.

JBL Lite, lol, I like it though I think Del Rio falls a little short of even that title.

As for Mark Henry... well, I mean anyone can make a constipated face, but Henry actually does convey that angry demeanor pretty well. But then again, it's really not that difficult to act pissed off.

In other news, Chavo Guerraro is awesome!

Cena breaking Flair's record makes my skin crawl.

How many WWF/WWE wrestlers, past or present, even came close? (HHH is the only one that comes to mind.)

Half of what Cena says doesn't make sense, and its annoying.
Not a damn word that comes out of the Warrior's mouth makes sense, and its awesome.

Del Rio ain't got nothin' mang.

Except a career.

Except a career.

Touche', touuuuuuuche'.

Not ordering this one with the Phils on at 8:30. Still - was tempted as I like the card a little bit. Ratings are in the tank but i like what they are doing with the midcard. I hope they don't shotgun things back to Orton because of this.
