2010 Pro Wrestling Thread

Miz is loving the crowd's Stone Cold mockery.

Also: When will Vince make a new belt? I think it's past time to get rid of the non-spinning spinner belt, no matter how much it cost to make. The belt doesn't look right on any wrestler not named Cena.

 

That was a nutty opening segment. I thought the WWE had a policy against illegal drugs?

 

Huh? Did I miss something?

 

Regal? I thought he retired a couple months ago?

 

Weird match between Bryan and Regal. So much mat wrestling it almost looked sloppy and choreographed, but it was an interesting change of pace. Purists probably loved it, but the kids at home hated it.

 

Match was different because they have that student/trainer past between them. They gave it a slower pace, but I liked it.

And cool little part after the match, Regal was applauding Bryan. Maybe he came back just to work with Bryan one more time?

 

I knew that, and got that aspect of it. It wasn't a bad match, just ... different. Haven't seen anything like that in a while. It almost had a 1960s feel to it.

 

Amen. Vince has been worried about WWE's stock and financial performance and has said he thinks it will be improve when the company builds and promotes new stars. Miz and Barrett are great ones to build around.

 

Is it just me, or is this show *not* PG?

 

Still looks PG, although they had the 'Vicki naked' joke. Just seems like they've been going for a lot of comedy tonight.

 

I'm all for the broadcasters getting involved, but I don't recall ever seeing so many theatrics from a three-man booth ever.

Cole serves as The Ghost of Christmas Present and does his usual "And I quote" readings from the computer.

King randomly punches Alex Riley for no reason at all, then winds up wrestling in the Main Event.

C.M. Punk, who criticized King for not being a professional broadcaster and getting involved, proceeds to hit Super Cena with a steel chair and walk off.

Thank goodness Josh Matthews always seems to be around. The whole crew is asking for an ass whipping.

 

It's going to be a sad day when Punk leaves the broadcast table and heads back into the ring.
