2010 Pro Wrestling Thread

Hey, just be happy they allowed a couple chair shots again...

 

To echo what everyone else said... Jeebus, Maryse is hot. I was begging for a FCC violation right there.

 

I turned on Raw last night for the first time in a long, long while. I stopped because I saw Orton and Edge, pretty much the only two guys I feel are worth watching. Glad I stuck around for the end of that one. What a badfuckingass RKO.

 

I was just wondering how much work they had to do together to pull that off right. The timing had to be perfect, and it was.

 

I wondered the first time I saw Orton and Bourne work whether Orton could get up quickly enough (with Bourne being distracted while setting up) to hit the RKO from a standing position while Bourne lands the SSP, or if he could even get up to the second rope and land it in mid air somehow. But I couldn't find any thumb wrestlers to see if it'd work out.

 

Awesome spot with the RKO. Orton and Jericho are the only reasons I tune in.

Anyone else consider how quick John Cena was to get up from a 7-on-1 beatdown, sprint to near the announcer's table, grab a chair and begin laying waste?

Then again, Cena has never been much for selling.

 

Harley - I confess I whiffed on Jericho. He's money. So him, Orton and Edge.

 

I'm glad it was. I like Bourne. It'll be good to see him stick around instead of fired.

 

I worked out next to Randy Orton on Sunday afternoon. He lives nearby. I always like to see what he does on Raw after I see him at the gym. Sounds like he made some badass move. I wonder if those weird neck excercises I saw him doing helped?

 

The RKO.

Get it before WWE does.

 

Eh, I didn't mind it, but that may just be my mindset that there was no way Cena was going to allow being pinned, then completely destroyed.

Admittedly, I was almost surprised when he was pinned cleanly. Or at least as cleanly as you can when it's 7 on 1. Even with the 7-on-1 disadvantage, I thought he'd end up sneaking a quick pin for the win or it'd end up just a massive beatdown with no real finish, regardless of the stipulations.

And with the way that ended, I'm pretty much assuming Sheamus is turning (if that's what you'd call it) on Cena and revealing an association with Nexus at Money in the Bank or at SummerSlam. I think he's finally starting to get over as a legitimate bad guy that people love to hate. I don't know why they'd mess with that now.

 

Since Orton has shown he can bury people who mess up when he's in the ring with him, I wonder if he can get Bourne a push now that Bourne helped make him look like a total badass.
