All-Purpose News Thread Part II

[Troublesome 85]

loved SCUM in ROH

Nah Corino was best in the last few years of ECW. Seeing pics of him now jesus christ hes fat and bald.

Shane Douglas is too. Watched him on that impact throwback event and jesus his fat ass clotheslining people is hilarious.

Sad tho that alot of wrestlers I grew up loving are dead or waaaaay past their primes and still wrestling. Sandman almost 60 still smacking people with canes

That was definitely when he was more in his prime. Just thought the work with SCUM in ROH around idk probably 2011-2012ish was kind of my introduction to the indies and I really dug it

I was BIG on steen’s ROH singles/title run

Him or Rock. If they are only doing Rock/Roman he has to win it because someone else winning and not getting a title shot st Mania would be insanely stupid.

The best way to do it would be to have someone (Sami, Cody etc) win the Rumble, have them come out the next night on Raw, talk about their shot at Mania, and have Roman come out to confront that guy, talk his talk about being head of the table, and then have The Rock interrupt. Have Rock do a promo about how Roman isn't "Head of the Table" - Rock is. Then have Rock challenge Roman for one of the belts - which Roman declines, because he is already defending - but then have Adam Pearce or some other figurehead come out and say, "actually Roman, the Rumble winner is guaranteed a title shot at one of the championships at WM - not both. He can make his case for challenging for both, or he can only challenge for one, in which case, we need to find a challenger for the other. So Cody/Sami says, "I am challenging you for the WWE Championship", and Rock gets the shot at the other belt. Boom.

The only tricky part there is to know if Rock will work the main event on night one, because it doesn't make a ton of sense to have him main event night two as he would need to put over Roman, and Mania should end on the title change.

 

[Unholy Diver]

Why wouldn't they put him in the main event angle. It was a great way to write him off and get MJF more heat.

Because there is no payoff for Mox and the BCC

Good point.

If Reigns is defending a title on night 1 and night 2, then I feel like someone beating him on night 1 would give away night 2's result. Because I highly doubt he's taking 2 losses that weekend.

So if they're going to go that route, I think you should have Reigns win both nights.

it's tough to make it work no matter what if Roman wrestles twice, if he wins the first night and loses the 2nd then theres the built in excuse that he had to wrestle twice and it takes some of the shine off of the person who actually beats him, if he loses night 1 and wins night 2 it makes the night 2 loser look like a dope for not being able to beat a guy who just lost 24 hrs before

 

[Sheppy]

I would hate for Reigns to defend both nights. That would be an awful decision, imo.

 

[GKJ]

He’s not gonna work both shows.

 

[Jussi]

Cathy Kelley was on Kristian Harloff's show today:



"Hunter just cultivates such a fun environment, where it's really enjoyable to be backstage and get to do your job."

 

[GKJ]

PWI report saying that Sasha Banks will be at Wrestle Kingdom.

Roman over The Rock on night one. Cody or Sami over Roman on night two.

Roman over The Rock on night one. Cody or Sami over Roman on night two.

I think you a feel good moment sometime. Cody or Sami should win. I think Sami and KO beat the Usos to leave Cody to win the RR.

Not only that but I think Sami and KO help Cody win the Rumble. Bloodline try to get him eliminated but Sami/Ko stop them.

I like the way you think.

 

[GKJ]

Why would that happen? There’s no connection there.

 

[Sheppy]

I don't like that at all, and yes, there's no connection. Having Sami/KO help Cody just turns it into a giant clusterf*** of over booking.

The Rock on night one makes zero sense. Who wins the Rumble? Cody? Kind of makes his rumble win seem much less important knowing that Roman is already penciled in to face The Rock (which you can argue is as big or bigger of a spectacle) on night 1. There's absolutely zero reason for Roman to be on two nights...

Instead of the Rumble winner getting a true main event, he gets a weakened opponent on night two. They'll always hold that over the Rumble winner.

As for KO and Sami... I'd love to see a feel good moment, and we will. They'll be winning the tag titles at Wrestlemania over The Uso's. You can start that journey by having Sami vs Reigns in Montreal where the fans will be rabid and you can put Sami in a situation where he goes 20-25 minutes with Roman giving him EVERYTHING he had without winning the title. That would get him just as over. Then, after the match you can have the Bloodline attack Sami and KO makes the save sending the fans home happy in their hometown.

Until the reunion of KO/Sami you can have KO look like he wants to help but then ultimately avoid helping Sami in the weeks leading up to Elimination Chamber. I guarantee you at the end of the EC match between Roman/Sami you'll have 20,000 people chanting for KO, then when he comes out the roof will come off in Montreal.

It's simple.

That you know of.

 

[Sheppy]

That you know of.

Stop. No. It will end up being a mess.

 

[GKJ]

That you know of.

I could say that about anybody

 

[Scandale du Jour]

They all are friends with the f***ing Bucks
