2019 Pro Wrestling thread

Those wrestlers of middle Eastern descent with red beards all look alike.

 

I doubt I'll be watching much of Smackdown for a while, just because I have to work on Friday nights, but from the sound of it I might not be missing much anyway. Ten months of building up Kofi as a credible champion, and they destroy it all to give Brock Lesnar another boring-ass title reign where he shows up every three weeks.
And his first feud on Smackdown will be against Cain Velasquez? If I wanted to see a UFC feud, I'd watch UFC. And if that was the case, why couldn't they just have accomplished the same thing by having Velaszquez do a run-in during the match, causing a DQ, and then you get your feud and don't have to sacrifice Kofi to him? Or is he feuding with a 75-year-old Rey Mysterio who needs someone to fight his battles for him now?
Only thing I can hope for is that Kofi either wanted some time off, or they're moving him to Raw. Lesnar is just a giant black hole who sucks the life out of the top of the roster whenever he's around -- or whenever he's not around, which might be the better way to put it.

 

Ain't that something. Because his wife is an employee, WWE is paying for Moxley's insurance as he wrestles for AEW.

 

OK, that Becky-Sasha match was quite enjoyable.

 

There's a blast from the past: another mist-spitting Japanese wrestler

 

At least if somebody asks if she spits or swallows, we know the answer.

 

What the holy fuck, Vince? A DQ/no contest in a cell match? Foley has gone off and through the cell THREE TIMES and the match continued, but the Fiend is being treated unfairly?

A well deserved AEW and Refund chant from the fans after that horseshit.

 

That crowd turned on that match in a hurry.

 

That was ... not good.

Words fail me right now.

 

Even Sean Waltman, who was on the WatchAlong simulcast, bashed the ending on air.

 

It was a horrendous main event.

 

The crowd reaction spoke for itself. They ruined Bray. Again. Even before that trash finish, listen to the crowd when he kicks out of the finishers. Listen to the boos when Seth does 47 stomps. If you’re not gonna go with that kinda heat what the fuck is the point?
