2019 Pro Wrestling thread

Thought it was a cool moment and was surprised because Jannetty bled and at that time, the WWF didn’t show blood. They even had done some big dumb red Xs to block the blood.

The heel turn was no surprise because they were building up to it by showing them not getting along in multiple tag matches.

Looking back, though, it’s really kinda a sad moment, because, although a lot happened afterward, this is the moment where Michaels starts his rise and Jannetty just never recovers from this peak of his career.

 

I was surprised. I was also 7 1/2 though, lol.

British fans chanting “Are you watching, Vince McMahon” at their takeover is pretty fun. Love a hot crowd.

 

Speaking of the Brits, the network just premiered a great bio on Nigel McGuiness on his career and his meandering journey to WWE. Lots of old indie/ROH footage of him with Daniel Bryan, Samoa Joe and Cesaro.

 

I’ll have to watch that one. Sad the way his career ended.

 

I wonder whatever happened to that Roderick Strong? Probably the same place as Johnny Gargano, the greatest wrestler from Liechtenstein, or Tomasso Ciampa, the legal counsel of Mohammed Hassan.

 

I watched it today. It was great. Bryan talking about what he said about his injuries when he got hired was quite interesting.

 

Realistically, I know they'll both be there. But they don't make my dream card based off this year. Cena's been gone to much to be in a storyline that matters, and the Undertaker just needs to be done.

 

Break the Walls Down for Jericho, or Also Sprach Zarathustra for Flair. The pomp that that added to his entrance was just perfect for him. No other song could have done the same.

 

And I'd also add, for the pure horribleness of it as a song, "Bad Street" by the Freebirds.

 

Did anyone else forget about Jason Jordan, or it’s just me?

 

Poor guy is probably done wrestling because of a bad neck.
