2024 Pro Wrestling Thread

I think that explains why Ricochet dropped that silly Speed championship.

Looks like this'll be the first big move in the Bidding War of 2024. I can understand the frustration with only two titles reins for about 100 days in 5+ plus years on the main roster.

I know this is the easy thing to say, but it would be a big signing for AEW, especially ahead of Wembley. Ricochet vs. Ospreay: holy hell with the thought.

 

I dunno. They got so many guys who do what Ricochet does.

I like him. But I feel like I’ve seen this movie before too.

 

Yeah. The initial surprise, followed by the one big match, followed by the newcomer losing a lesser big match, followed by the newcomer joining a faction and doing a bunch of multi-man matches. It’s the AEW way.

 

Obviously, it's all about TKO corporate synergy, but I'm not sure about this UFC venue hosting the NXT PLE. It really does seem like a slightly larger PC, with a colder crowd. Either that, or there's something off with the audio is mic'ed.

Also pretty remarkable that the PC offers a better audiovisual product than the UFC place. PC has video screens filling the entry way and going the length of the wall opposite hard came, while the UFC just had a few video boards spread along the walls.

 

When I was hoping for a former WWE star in TNA making their return with this partnership, Dana Brooke is not what I was exactly asking for.

 

Betting we'll eventually be getting the Anoa'i family vs. Solo and all the symbolic members.

Roman, the Usos and Jacob Fatu vs. Solo and the Tongans.

 

Your whowhat will be punished?

 

This week's QR code points to the start of next week's Raw. Looks like we're finally coming to a conclusion.

 

Dang. That's definitely a way to write off Ricochet. He gets torpedoed into a production truck Rey Mysterio style, then gets suplexed into a windshield.

(But was it real glass?)

 

I'll assume that wasn't a real glass windshield that Ricochet just got slammed into.

 

Damn. They even brought Samantha into it. That's cinema.

 

Yep, and they had her go with her man in the ambulance and McAfee did the ring announcing.

Kudos to the E for making Rico’s exit look realistic. If Samantha would have stayed, fans would be wondering why she was staying with her job instead of helping her fiancée. And if they had a backup ring announcer there, it would have not been realistic.
