2013 Pro Wrestling Thread

That was the first thing I noticed Monday -- the black scarf. He wore it all the time when he was a heel, and it was nice to see they hadn't forgotten that.

 

Del Rio will always be the face who mowed down Foley Claus.

 

To each their own, but that shit is an instant channel-changer, I don't care how gripping the rest of the show supposedly is.

Next PPV, AJ Lee drops the Diva's title to Steph. Trips makes up for his lack of package by jobbing out the US champ -- in a non-title match, of course -- and Vince struts to the ring looking like he has a stick wedged in his ass.

*yawn*

 

You know, I always liked John Morrison. For a while there, he and Miz were workhorses -- guys who were out there every week, putting a lot of effort in and really helping the show. I'd assumed Morrison would have signed with TNA by now ...

 

Still doesn't take away from the silliness of your statement.

 

By the way, was this the first time we've seen The Shield backstage and interacting with others? All I can recall are in-ring segments and their al Quida video messages sent from the bowels of Mankind's boiler room.

 

I know I've talked to Jelly about this, but man, I'm excited for the Wyatt Family and how they're going to bring them in eventually. Love those vignettes they've been doing.

 

Welcome to the Wyatt Family bandwagon! Haha

I love this group and have been hyped for Wyatt's return since he debut the Wyatt character.

 

I just wish they'd bring them in already. The promos are great, but run them too long and it'll be impossible to match the build-up.

 

I'm wondering how the one Wyatt guy with the mask is going to work out. Is he going to be wearing a goat mask in the ring, or taking it off?

 

Apparently, from this report, Bryan suffered a stinger at Raw for real, which is why they stopped the match. He was supposed to have won, and later backstage, confronted Trips because he didn't want the match stopped. They later apologized to each other:

Apparently, the argument was superintense:

The "argument" was a shoot. The injury was legit, but Bryan wrestled in the dark match main event for the Smackdown tapings. I think he's on SD as well, though that was the only thing I read about the show.
