2009 Running Pro Wrestling Thread

That Cena flick actually looks decent. At least better than his first film.

And I guess there will be two Chamber matches at No Way Out. The way someone said it earlier made it sound as if there would be one match with both titles going to the winner.

Also, really looking forward to this match with Jericho and Punk.

 

Guessing this is the segment where Steph reveals she and Orton were in on it together (you can't imagine her character would have been fine being a co-GM with Vince).

 

I wouldn't put it past her. Although she could have changed over time.

 

Shane is in on it.

 

All those guys out there, and not a single one is rushing to the ring. WTF?

 

So Shane McMahon can now take out three of the top young wrestlers? :

Tonight was the first time I watched in months ... see you in another few months.

 

What the hell kinda ending was that?

Stephanie's "oh, you're going to get it worse than being fired" was Shane coming out and beating up Orton? Which in itself is ridiculous, along with the fact that he whooped on Rhodes and Dibiase.

I'm freakin' confused now.

 

Good overall show, but that ending was WrestleCrap worthy.

I guess it advanced the storyline, but Shane taking out wrestlers like The Incredible Hulk is insanity.

 

I think they're trying to tease the idea that Shane was going off-script and throwing legit punches, which is why they looked a lot less theatrical than your traditional wrestling punches. Of course, all it does is make another McMahon look like a superpower. And it turns Orton, a guy that looked like he was fixing to become one of the all-time great heels with this recent run, into a wuss. Short of punting Stephanie next week, it's going to take a lot of rehab to get his character back to as good as it was last week and Sunday (and even tonight -- not the therapist stuff, but the FIRE ME FIRE ME NOW stuff at the end before it all went to hell)

 

Yeah, that ending was gawdawful. Would've been awesome if Stephanie just took a step back and said, "Get him," and the entire roster came rushing down the ramp to whale on Orton and his buddies. But noooooo...they had to have Shane-o-Mac (who looked like he was 65 years old) throw punches that didn't hit nearly as hard as the millions of Raw fans beating their heads against the wall watching that crap.
What. The. Fuck. Man!?

 

That was an awesome promo by Orton to start the show though. Maybe his best work yet.

Surprised to see Kofi Kingston get a spot in the title match at No Way Out, but it's nice to see some new blood get a shot in the main event.

 

Oh, and why on Earth is Jericho getting Steph's (and, by extension, Vince's) back by being on the stage after all that last week?
