2024 Pro Wrestling Thread

Love the reaction of the white guy in the left background during that.

 

Not saying she's going to start wearing neon and hugging/kissing babies, but Rhea as a full-fledged face is going to do HUGE business.

And I think Priest just murdered JD.

 

Is this move with the pencil a McAfee signature move? I don't watch his show enough to know, but that was cool as shit. That was straight out of a Mr. Perfect vignette.
Even though they no-sold it, there was a little beat where he and Cole both looked like they wanted to stop and say, "Holy shit, did you SEE that!?"
It's at the 2:00 mark of this clip, so you don't need to wait through the whole thing.

EDIT: OK, some more research (meaning I searched "Pat McAfee pencil" instead of "Pat McAfee" on Twitter) reveals it is both something he's worked on for a couple of years and a tribute to Mr. Perfect, who did it years ago.

 

One of my favorite WWE HOF moments is when the crowd booed when Trish thanked her husband; then started chanting his name when she announced she was pregnant.

 

Lucha Bros to WWE? Damn.

 

Yeah, the pencil is one of Pat's "things." Don't know if he does it on the ESPN show, but it's regular on WWE.

 

Still cool, though.

 

Apparently, they're also on the cusp of signing Motor City Machine Guns, too.

Gonna be some tag team madness coming up.

 

American Made? Does that mean they can repurpose the old American Males theme?

 

The Wyatt Sicks debut (in ring) in the same arena the Wyatt Family debuted in almost 11 years earlier, and Howdy taking control of Bray's rocking chair.

Poetry.

 

This match should end with the fog swallowing up the Creeds -- but leaving Gable behind to stand alone.

 

Rowan doing the "Yeah, yeah, yeah!" and the kiss to his fingertips. Beautiful tribute.

And Lumis? After all the stuff in NXT with Indi Hartwell and the Gargano family (as entertaining as it was) and his forgettable main roster time, damn that guy can move in the ring.

Great Raw tonight. A Raw after Mania-level show with a lot of resets and a white-hot crowd.
