Probably @Club27

 

[brendasdeadbaby]

I just like seeing talent develop over time. Plus it reminds me of WCW B-shows

No not nxt the brand that's awesome, mr.nxt is what Bo Dallas called himself tonight. He sucks.

 

[steelogreen]

That man is funny AF idc he's like the lil b of wwe lol

 

[franknbeans]

watched, funny - thanks


also is funny how it is set in "the '80's" with stuff from the whole decade impossibly thrown together in one scene...

dude is wearing wht/blk-red nike aj1's yet return of the jedi hasn't released yet - and he is pile-driving a hulk hogan doll that didn't come out until maybe '89/'90...

ya i know they don't care

thats pretty much why on every episode is says the year is 1980-something lol,shows pretty funny 

usos just need better tag teams to face.

[Peep Game]

Angelina Love's nose looks like it wants to fall off

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Savae for later to watch fellas

 

[electricllama]

No troll - but why don't any of the (male) African American or Latino wrestlers have good gimmicks now?

Mark Henry could've had an epic last run

PTP got broken up way too soon

Otunga nowhere to be found

Kofi is the RR & MITB dude (which is cool... but...)

Big E lost all his personality when he got called up

R-truth almost had a run but got derelegated again

Xavier Woods (...)

Brodus Clay (...)

Angelo Dawkins (...)

Jason Jordan (...)

I've always been conscious of race because of where/how I grew up (I'm Latino). Does anyone else have any thoughts? I saw Bleacher's article on WWE's "racism" 

 

[Peep Game]

^Vince/the "creative" team base gimmicks/characters off of dated stereotypes (including international gimmicks as well). They could use some injection of youth to let them know what's actually going on in the world, instead of going with their 70's-03 mindstate. I think it's similar to a 55 year old record exec telling people what they think they should be listening to on the radio.

 

[franknbeans]

yea things wont change until "vince and the boys" are out,the have the last say on everything and still living in the past as far as race relations ,not saying they are racist but just out of touch.they def need some younger advisors trips and steph should be leading the way to change things like that but idk

And the radio doesn't even matter anymore...

Watching One Night Stand 06...god did they **** up ECW... It would have been so easy to book it and make the fans happy... It would have even been easy to be booked PG...

 

[Peep Game]

I didn't even think of this

 

[furiousstylezz]

Happy Birthday case!

DC, didn't know you posted on DVDVR. I'm a lurker there, saw your review about the ROH show under Kidkash. Good wrestling site.

What are your thoughts, presentation wise of the show? Didn't understand the small t.v. above the entrance ramp.

Watching TNA right now...Aries is a face again and Gunner in a segment with Shaw? I wonder how quiet the arena really is, those piped in sounds are horrible.

 

[Peep Game]

If only Lashley didn't have Lesnar's voice, or just limited his talking in general

Only watch this match (or PPV) if you hate yourself

 

[celticspride34]

I truly did consider watching that tonight... Accidently clicked on it while opening ONS... Decided to not do it to myself lol...

 

[Meangene45]

Man I watched that PPV a few weeks ago

 

[bigego24]

Watching NXT. Bo Dallas is so bad he's great. At this point I may be a Bo-Liever. looking forward to Takeover. Mainly Neville vs Kidd and Sami vs Tyler Breeze. Banks vs Natalya wasn't bad either. Glad to see the quality of the women's matches improve. Unfortunately...Tyson Kidd still sucks on the mic...FACT.

Straight up robbery.

 

[shorty doo wop]

I remember being excited about December to dismember SMH

 

[johnnyredstorm]

weren't Punk and Arby D the first two guys eliminated or something and they were the most over? Such a turd all around.

Chikara is so damn stupid.

Chikara is so damn stupid.

What's Chikara?..Is that SinCara's new tag partner?
