2021 Pro Wrestling Thread

This is good to see, too.

 

E has always wanted a match with Goldberg too, meaty men slapping meat, so thats still a possibility for Saudi with E as champ

The last 2 world title changes happening on Raw is pretty cool. Has to be 20 years since consecutive world title changes happened on TV like that.

this makes New Day arguably the most successful tag team/stable ever. To spin 2 guys into future world champions? That’s a short list. Edge and Christian are the only ones I can think of (Shawn had already been world champions 3x before Dx version 1)

 

All three Shield members became world champs.

 

This one means a lot. When Jon Huber/Brodie Lee died or was close to death, Amanda Huber trusted only two men to talk to Brodie Jr. about it -- Cody Rhodes and Big E.

 

Bronson Rechsteiner making his TV debut as Bron Breakker (ugh).

Vic Joseph: "This is a dog-faced gremlin mentality right here."

Nice touch to tease the Rick Steiner link without flat out saying it.

 

Whoa ... they gave him the clean win over LA Knight?!?!?

Kid looked good. He definitely wasn't that jacked when our paper first talked to him as a 10-year-old.

 

I'll be damned. They actually gave the belt to Ciampa.

Now let's see how this wedding gets screwed up.

 

A wrestling wedding went off without a hitch!

And with that ending, looks like they're strapping Bronson Rechsteiner's ass to a rocket straight to the top

 

That wedding was fun. Lumis speaks! Regal’s facial expression when they wanted him to officiate was priceless.

 

They had the perfect… and rumored… name right in front of them…

Rex Steiner

 

Yeah, I don't like the name either, but I'm guessing they weren't ready to give him the family name just yet -- let him swim on his own for a bit. That and the acrimonious nature between Scott and WWE.

That's why they flirted with the Rick/Scott links with the sirens in the entry theme and the "dog-faced gremlin mentality."

 

For all the talk about Kevin Dunn purging DIY, Ciampa gets the belt and Gargano closes the show

The new stage is hella bright. Thats gonna take gerting used to
