WWE SuperThread *Spoilers*

[Misanthrope]

Why would he?

Is that a serious question? Unless he exists in a vacuum, it might cross his mind to address the three guys who keep interfering in his matches. Either he's in charge of them or he's not but very grateful for their continued interference.

 

[Big Pete]

He's a heel and he's been on record that he has no affiliation with The Shield.

Taking all the credit is Heel 101.

 

[Bulldog Force]

Bring on the Royal Rumble. It's time for someone to finally Layeth the Smacketh down! Boots to asses 101!

 

[Misanthrope]

I know this is the epitome of a first world problem, but just realised I can't watch the Royal Rumble I(first time not watching it live in seven or eight years) because I'll be on a beach in Thailand. Dammit!

 

[Bulldog Force]

Just watch it when you get back dude. You'll be enjoying yourself over there too much to care about it. When I went to Spain last year, I did the same thing with the Amazing Race Australia

If you have a hotel with wifi on a that beach bring an ipad and look for a stream ;-) . Or wait a few days and find it at one of the dvd shops

Heaps of markets/bars and stuff show RAW so tourists stop.

I daresay I'll just avoid spoilers for a month and have a marathon when I get back :lol: Not sure my girlfriend would be down with me ditching her for three hours to watch wrestling.

She doesn't get it :lol:

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

WWE have signed El Generico. Could be interesting...

Ole!

 

[Misanthrope]

Definitely the best unsigned worker going around right now. I have no idea what Jim Cornette was thinking letting him go when he kept dead weight like Mike Mondo on the card.

 

[WYD]

Just wrote out an essay of a post and hit delete by accident.

*concise version

I haven't been watching any WWE TV, just recommended matches, and it's far more tolerable this way. I enjoy pro wrestling no bad melodrama, the TV show was preventing me from enjoying the matches.

I just happened to be watching fox when Raw came on this week and saw Cena begin to cut a vomit educing promo before I had to turn it off. This is the exact kind of shit (along with goofy ass jeans, moderate execution of a fairly limited moveset, and clowning opponents and no selling losses the following night) that prevented me from enjoying Cena as a worker. I just zoned our or hit the fast forward button.

Interestingly, my position on Cena is the antithesis of the IWC. Good, borderline great worker, depending how generous you are, but an average promo and businessman.

Sami Callihan > El Generico.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

Evolve / DGUSA / Sapolsky seems to draw a few former big ROH names away like El Generico + Low Ki, as well as having some of the best new talent in Gargano, Challihan, Taylor and Pac (who is with WWE now too).

 

[Misanthrope]

I wouldn't even have Callihan in my top five guys in the indies right now :-/

I couldn't name five guys, active right now in the US, who are better than him.

There's definitely no one in TNA.

 

[Big Pete]

Callihan is too inconsistent for my liking. His character can also be very grating.

Really? I'd have at least 5-6 in TNA above him and several in the WWE as well. As Pete says, he's too inconsistent. I'd also have a few guys in RoH and 2-3 in CHIKARA.

Inconsistent? He's consistently the best worker on the indies. More 4 star+ matches than anybody the last 2 years.

 

[Big Pete]

As talented as Generico is, I don't know if his persona will translate well into the WWE.

Let's see if he can survive the random name generator first.

Apparently part of it has to do with him being multi-lingual.

And HHH is a fan.

By whose rating system?

And HHH is a fan.

Now that Trips is no longer booking himself into every storyline and giving himself a title run every other year, I'm starting to like the guy again. The re-invigoration of the tag division has been a lot of fun, although it seems to have drifted off course a little of late.
