2019 Pro Wrestling thread

Just realized AEW is running in this same building Wednesday. Maybe they should just have WWE leave the set behind.

 

The thing I like about this Seth/KO story is that its actually kind of been subtelly developed over a number of weeks, had seeds planted....

actually makes it look like they have a plan.

Seth is the biggest whining, heel-that-doesnt-know-hes-a-heel since Bret Hart in 1996.

 

AOP is going to go over like a brick without a mouthpiece like Paul Ellering or Drake Maverick.

 

If I cared at all about building a tag division, and I had War Raiders as my champions, and I made a big deal about Raw losing Surviror Series matches, and they were the one team that won....

I might consider putting them on Raw. That’s just me.

Also at this point Dio Madden has spent more time in the “local medical facility” for a Lesnar attack than Dominick did.

 

I don't know if Ciampa could ever go back to being the hated uber-heel after all these warm and fuzzy videos that have come out over the last year or so.

 

I saw a comment somewhere that gave the supposed reason why the E uses “local medical facility.” Supposedly, when the E used to say someone was at a hospital, fans were supposedly calling the actual hospital to find out they were doing.

 

So I flip on AEW, and I see ... Virgil ... on my TV. In 2019.

What a time to be alive.

 

Ted Irvine cutting a better promo than half the E’s roster right now.

 

Go to a baseball game, get a ball for a souvenir.

Go to a hockey game, get a puck for a souvenir.

Go to an NXT show, bring home Adam Cole as a souvenir.

(I’m sure those “fans” were probably NXT trainees. There would be some possible liability issues with wrestlers literally getting shoved into the crowd.)

 

I'm enjoying this Festival of Friendship reboot.

 

The one problem, from a production standpoint, was how it picked up the audio from the mics. It was as if we heard it from how it played through the arena's sound system, and not directly from the mic to the TV.

Made it hard to understand some pieces of the Jericho segment.

 

I agree that was pretty annoying. Hopefully it was a one-time problem.

Meanwhile, OMG, a Jenn Sterger (Decker) sighting. Was she part of this program originally and I missed her until now?
