2020 Pro Wrestling Thread

It seems like just the sort of "distraction" that would be good in today's times.

 

I'm looking forward to whatever episode has Foley, Mark Henry and Rikishi. Big Show said on one of the podcasts that Henry was great in his guest role.

And for those of you who wondered what happened to Urkel, there you go.

 

Just finished watching the second part of the "Dark Side of the Ring" doc on Benoit.
First part was good, but Part 2 was very powerful. You can catch it on YouTube now.

 

They’re taping it today and tomorrow at the Performance Center in Orlando, which will be subject to a shelter-in-place order after that through April 9. Results will probably leak before this weekend.

Also, Rey Mysterio and Dana Brooke have been diagnosed with coronavirus, along with a third as-yet unnamed WWE wrestler.

 

I dont think anythings going to leak. Theres like 18 people there total and theyre all dyed in the wool dirt sheet hating acolytes. I imagine anything that leaks McMahon will hunt down like a crazy person.

...or Prichard will leak false info just so he can shit on Meltzer getting it wrong

 

Just finished Part 2. That ending was super emotional.

 

Given that Vince just dumped something like $3.5M back into the company, they ought to be glad people are still reading the dirt sheets. It’s when people stop reading that they should worry … because that’s when they’ve stopped caring at all.

 

Jericho is cutting a promo with a drone.

God bless that man.

 

Jericho just cut a promo with a drone.

Now I’ve seen everything.

 

Tony Schiavone: "WE'RE OUTTA TIME!"

Dammit, I've missed that.

 

Jericho’s the best. Between the Benoit doc, his commentary last week (cody and kenny look awful compared to jericho), and his Hardy stuff..... the guy’s the GOAT.

i find it supremely disappointing Luke Harper’s making his whole thing a Vince McMahon mockery. The sneezing? Give me a break. Thats some Vince Russo/Kevin Nash playing to a very small smark audience bullshit.

 

I didn’t understand the drone thing last week, either. I also didn’t understand what was up with Hardy’s facial expressions last week. Is he trying to be as weird as his brother?
