2019 Pro Wrestling thread

I think the E lowered the mics to reduce the volume of the boos.

It was bad, and Lana’s parting line made it worse.

The storyline sucks, but Hell In A Cell still has my Gooker vote. That’s going to be talked about for years. Rusev/Lana/Lashley is just a really crappy midcard storyline.

 

I don't know. There's still time for this to get worse before the end of the year, and it feels like the kind of storyline that just gets dragged out for three months. Hell, it's already mid-November. It might be eligible for the 2021 Gooker.

 

Apparently, the live crowd totally turned on Seth, too, so it's clear they've done some work in the editing booth.

 

Watching the Rusev-Lana-Lashley bit now and it's every bit as horrible as promised. No amount of editing could fix this.

 

Lana’s a terrible actress.

She’s on TV because reasons. But its terrible. She makes Maryse and Nattie look like Oscar winners.

 

At least the stuff with Maria and Mike Kanellis was tolerable because Maria really does play a "vindictive bitch" really well, and they are so tight in real life.

I think they just lost interest in the storyline with them, and then Mike asked for his release, so they just dropped it all from TV.

 

Rollins really needs a heel turn, and another new finisher after they ruined the stomp with Bray. He’s just coming off as whiny.

 

Does Walter get real heel heat on nxt uk?

Seth is in a weird, whiny place right now .... but I do wonder if there’s a little Bret Hart/Canada part to the reaction in Manchester. They’re never going to boo Walter there right?

I mean good on wwe for trying to pit Seth vs a UK heel rather than like Pete Dunne, but crowd still goes with hometown guy

 

I know this FS1 show is separate from the main WWE product, but still something I never thought I'd see again.

 

CM Punk return imminent.

 

It's about like, 1/100th as cool as if it happened on a proper wrestling show.
