2011 Pro Wrestling Thread

I think it's stupid to keep the titles on them while he's suspended. If Punk gets suspended there's no way in hell they don't take the title from him. It just doesn't make sense.

 

What it tells me is that they don't think much of the tag titles.

 

And that doesn't make much sense either, because they had been building the tag team division back up lately.

 

I think Bourne's 30 days are almost over.

I'm looking forward to reading about his "burn the bridge" interview when he leaves WWE. Should be verrry interesting.

 

We'll probably see Brodus Clay very soon and he's going to destroy John Morrison and that will be the end of JoMo.

I can already hear Tenay "What is Johnny Mojo doing in the Impact zone??!!

 

Yeah, Morrison is definitely getting the Punk-Jericho "job 'em out on the way out" treatment. I highly doubt TNA will be able to utilize him to his full potential. Why? Because it's TNA......

 

Morrison could have some good matches with Storm and Roode and Styles, depending on whether he comes in as a heel or a face. If RVD can be arsed to care again, they'd have fun flippy matches. If Melina comes in with him, it'd do wonders for his character (much more interesting as a cocky famous shaman of sexy than the Prince of Parkour). It won't matter much, though, because it's TNA and they'll get their 1.1-1.2 ratings no matter what.

 

Morrison can definitely go in the ring. He reminds me the most of HBK of the guys they currently have, it's just that he can't talk at all. I never thought HBK was an all-time great promo guy, but he was serviceable enough.

 

For the old school wrestling fans, here's a challenging Sporcle quiz -- name all of the NWA/WCW tag team champions. Pretty damn tough. There's a lot of forgettable names in there.
I got 41 out of 108, and was grasping at straws for the last few.

And one more, while we're on the subject. Most matches in the WWE from 1980-2009 (the top 100 are listed). Even harder than it sounds because of where it cuts off. Guys who are in the spotlight now, like Miz, Ziggler and even Punk are either way down the list or not there. Oh, and be prepared to plumb the depths of your knowledge regarding 1980s WWF jobbers.

Got 56, including the top 18 and 24 of the top 26.

And I'm proud to say the first name I entered was Iron Mike Sharpe.
