2013 Pro Wrestling Thread

I kind of thought he always had the reputation of working stiff. Nowadays, it's probably even more noticeable, since he would be one of the few guys who still works that way. Hardcore Holly and Undertaker and Ric Flair aren't really working full schedules anymore.

 

The weekly "Heyman is awesome" post.

Because he really is awesome.

"HE'S SORRY! HE'S SORRY!"

 

Heyman can cut a promo that would make Eskimos buy ice cubes.

 

I loved his facial expressions when Miz was running him down.

The man is a master.

 

Glad to finally see Bruno in the Hall.

 

Watching that hotel brawl, I was actually thinking how funny it would have been to be a guest in the place and suddenly come out of the elevator to see the two guys fighting.

 

Oh, I know it was planned. Duh. Just the way Lesnar threw it, with the legs out and with some velocity, seems like it could have done some serious incidental damage. Same with the F5. There's a huge difference between taking that move like it's normally done, and bashing your face off the edge of a couch with a wood frame. One you get up from in a few seconds. The other only knocks some teeth out if you're lucky.
Like sgreenwell said, he's got the reputation for working stiff. Just from looking at the way he carries himself, I honestly believe it's not all part of the gimmick.

 

Looks like we're heading for a Shield vs. Ryback-Cena-Sheamus match in the Elimination Chamber to settle ... what exactly?
And does anyone have any idea what the other match is or is about? Something about former Heavyweight champions and Booker asking if I can dig it. Beyond that, it's a mystery.
We're two weeks from another PPV and I have no idea what the matches are. That's not good salesmanship, WWE.

 

The Smackdown EC match is a clusterfuck. I'm guessing Shield vs. Cena/Ryback/Sheamus will be the main event.

 

They went to all that trouble to have Shield surrounded and then they exchange punches for 10 seconds and bail? Lame. Might as well have them get stomped on like they did to everyone else. Even up the score a bit and head to the PPV. Either way, the next PPV is going to suck, it seems. Rock/Punk rematch as main event, I guess?

 

I think they intentionally make Elimination Chamber awful every year so that it makes the Rumble and Wrestlemania look better by contrast.

 

Have always loved Lesnar for this reason: He's believable.

Unlike those pussy kicks to the gut that Ryback was planting on Antonio in their match. That was pathetic.
