The Wrestling Thread

Given what a joke the WWE is making of all their women right now, this made me smile while watching the Royal Rumble



I can't believe she hit Ziggler with her finisher! I don't think I've seen anything like that since Chyna was in the WWE! They would NEVER let any other one of their divas do that to a main eventer. It may mean nothing in the long run, but for one night Karma did the ladies proud IMO

I couldn't believe Kofi's save, I always think when someone does that live in front of thousands and millions on TV/online, WHAT would have happened if he botched it. Kharma was awesome as a return, enjoyed Road Dogg too and Jim Duggan hahaha. Also any time Booker is involved

I think that was the first time in a while that there has been two wrestlers in the ring alone for a good 10 minutes at the end.

Yeah, the rumble match was fun. I was kind of mad because my cable provider wasn't able to show the pay per view for some reason and tried to tell me that it was a problem on WWE's part. Not sure I buy that, not with this being WWE's second biggest pay per view of the year. Anyway, I caught most of the rumble pay per view on youtube. Kofi's handstand was cool. Kofi's a guy who can be a stunt man when necessary, especially with guys like Bourne and Morrison not around. I would just like to see Kofi get a character change, something more serious like he was in his feud with Orton. His current, kid friendly character makes him kind of boring and isn't going to get him far.

I was glad we got to see the Socko/Cobra faceoff with Foley and Santino. I was so glad to see Jericho finally show us in ring action. I wish he had won, so he could have added that to his resume. Karma was definitely my favorite moment though. It's so good to see something outside the norm from the WWE and seeing a woman dominate like that without having to resort to something stupid like Beth kissing Kali was really nice. She elminated Epico legitimately, scared the crap out of Cole to make him eliminate himself and showed Ziggler that she can definitely take on any guy in the WWE if she wanted to. That's the kind of woman you put the women's title on. I hope the WWE realizes how valuable Karma is. There's a legitimacy to her that is very lacking in the women's roster.

WWE's Creative team is reportedly planning on moving ahead with an extended gimmick from Natalya that plays off the farting vignette from last Friday.

....are they building the Fart Foundation? WWE writers sucks. The Woman division is already low, and this will make it even more meaningless.

Blame Vince, that guy never grew up. He's a living, breathing man child

Who - this guy??



.....never.

What a way to end Raw! Undertaker is back! Whoo hoo! So I'm guessing HHH isn't gonna be the new Raw GM, because he still has "personal issues" to deal with. Which begs the question, is there gonna be a new Raw GM (please don't let it be Otunga, like was hinted at), or will Larenidus keep the job?

Also, that match between CM Punk & Daniel Bryan was a helluva technical match. Made me think of the matches between Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels in the 90s. Fantastic. I hope we see a rematch soon.

We all collect classic video games, and any of us reading this thread still watch wrestling...I don't think any of us have room to talk.

Hey now, don't compare us to Vince. That's insulting. Vince would tell you that classic video games are stupid, unless you showed him a copy of Boogerman. He'd think that's the most brilliant video game of all time

This really shows what he thinks of wrestling fans. Copy and pasted from allwrestling.com

"As noted before, Natalya's farting gimmick is scheduled to continue on SmackDown. Sources report that the angle is being done to get Natalya over, believe it or not, and provide entertainment"

Vince wants us cheering for a woman who farts on television

I shouldn't be surprised. This is the same wrestling promotion that expects us to cheer whenever Kelly Kelly gives herself a wedgie and rubs her ass in someone's face, or whenever Eve sticks her butt over someone and does a stripper dance. God, the WWE sets feminism back ten years every week

Are we really exited about Taker/Triple H 2? I really just want these old men to go away. I wish Kane would chokeslam Taker to hell and take over as the new badass, supernatural guy in the WWE. Taker's old and boring

nope. I don't want to see Taker/Triple H 3 (actually) again. maybe a rematch with Kane would work better since his pretty much reborn. he hasn't face the mask Kane since Wrestlemania 14. So might as well be his own brother and they can work on the same pace. If not, maybe a Brock Lesnar return?
