2025-star Frog Splash! Pro Wrestling Thread

El Grande Americano is hilarious and full of Elias/Ezekiel-like potential with never seeing them at the same place at the same time. Minus it driving Kevin Owens insane, which was a must-see segment each week.

Rhea Ripley is turning heel, right? She's at least on a heel-ish slant recently.

Rhea's too over for them to do that. I think it's more a case of her being an Austin-style rebel against authority.

I think Bianca is the one that will be the heel in all of this, especially with whatever she does as the guest ref next week to force the triple threat at Mania.

Reminder that Season 6 of Dark Side debuts tonight: Foley and heck in the Cell.

I wonder what they can say about that, that hasn't already been said. And while I know Foley is on board with Dark Side, I'm guessing they didn't get Undertaker because of his ongoing association with WWE. Isn't Jim Ross also on the outs with them? So how do you tell that story without anything from them?

WWE is doing lucha matches? They must watch a bunch of AEW in WWE HQ.

Can't wait to see how El Generico becomes involved with El Grande Americano at WrestleMania.

Looking at some of the teasers they've posted on social media, looks like it's also touching a lot on Mick's overall story -- the rise to becoming the hardcore icon, to the aftermath of what he's living with now.

Same with the latest Rivals series on A&E, there's little there that hasn't been seen and told elsewhere.

The hat band version of John Phillip Sousa they played as Grande Americano's entrance was a chef's kiss. This angle is a home run

Just found this: hard cam footage of yesterday's post-show dark match. Nice touch with the ref ejecting Raquel via cartwheel.

As a non-WWE watcher, are they mocking lucha or doing a tribute to it with this angle?
