2012 Pro Wrestling Thread

I saw him on an MLS pre-show and had to double-take.

 

I thought of John Laurinitis (sp) as Goddell was walking out to make one of the picks last night. Has that smug middle management look about him.

 

Anyone going to stream Extreme Rules tonight?

 

Remember ... People Power!

 

The build-up has sucked and the card doesn't look that great to me, which means it should be a really good PPV, if things hold to form.

 

You think the build for Extreme Rules was bad? Over The Limit takes place in THREE WEEKS. And presumably they won't get to rely on WM rematches to carry the card (except maybe Punk-Jericho), so they're going to have to move their asses.

I'm done with Laurinaitis. I liked him just fine as the anti-charismatic suck up interim general manager, but now he's just another leaf off the Dastardly Heel GM branch, and not an especially good one at that. Figure either HHH or Vince comes back around SummerSlam to put Johnny Ace in his place. I hope.

By the way, Shane Douglas did another Extreme Reunion show last night, and holy Christ was it a shitshow. Sabu was rushed to the hospital after he was found nonresponsive in his hotel room. There were death rumors on Twitter last night but those were debunked; he is, however, in the ICU. Justin Credible was kicked out of the show for being so high he made RVD look straight edge. So there went two of the scheduled matches, including the main event (Douglas-Sabu). Crowd shat on the entire show, except for a makeshift Jerry Lynn-Devon Storm match that arose from Credible's ejection. Everything else was the drizzling squirts. It's 2012, guys. Let ECW die already.

Thanks, Gutter.

 

Miz jobs clean to the Cobra on the YouTube pre-show. Also, WWE clearly rigs the stipulation wheel for the Big Show/Cody Rhodes match. Cody v. Big Show will be a tables match.

 

At this point, I really have to wonder what Miz did that was *this* bad.

 

Anyone have another link?

The one that Gutter posted doesn't work.

 

What the hell did he do? Squeeze Stephanie McMahon's ass? Produce photos of Vince and Shawn Michaels in a compromising position? I don't think I've ever seen a former champ hit the S.D. "Special Delivery" Jones route as rapidly as Miz has.
