Suck it
Two tears in a bucket
And then another thing
I'm not the one they'll try their luck with
Hit hard like brass knuckles
See your face through the turnbuckle dude
I got no love for you

here's my dilemma: everyone always talks about how Triple H/John Cena kept all the young talent down in the mid-late 00s and everything is their fault that everything sucks...

but everyone ALSO talks about how all of the developmental wrestlers coming out of OVW at the time were the drizzling poo poo hot garbage fuckers who shouldn't have been in the ring anyway.

Maybe Triple H was doing the fans a favor keeping all that garbo talent down?????

Well there were also lots of guys who could have gotten better pushes. Edge, Jeff Hardy, Chris Jericho, RVD, just to name a few.

I know Jeff and RVD had their drug problems, but it wasn't like it was just HHH & Cena and an entire card full of useless schlubs.

The ones that were real garbage were mostly left behind and released (with a few exceptions). The ones that had/have potential are mostly still there, just slumming it in the midcard or lower. A couple ended up working with WWE in some other capacity like Byron Saxton.

Dunno if it was mentioned, but they are coming to DSM in march and the card so far has a 4 v 4 match with Orton in the match along with Ambrone, Cena, and Reigns ( I think).

So he'll be back in a month I guess?

Sorry if everyone knew this I just wanted to share.

It's a face versus face matchup between two people who haven't been around in months and have almost never interacted. Also it has featured nothing but Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns cutting promos on Brock Lesnar and each other, a thing none of these three people should be doing if they want to get over.

Oh and multiple gently caress finished matches featuring Big Show and Kane who should just be in a tag team together. They can call themselves The Bathroom Break. Make gangbusters off the tshirts.

I was thinking the other day I know Trips reasoning about Chyna not being in the HOF is bull, but if you want to follow that logic why is convicted rapist Mike Tyson in the hall of fame.

I see this as a prevailing sentiment online, and I'm not sure why people don't see the difference between Tyson and Chyna.

Chyna is obviously hosed up on drugs, and has been for a decade or more. If she could be counted on to dry out, she might have a shot.The WWE hall of fame is totally pointless, other than the ceremony itself, so they need people to show up halfway sober.

HHH was lying or embellishing during the majority of that podcast, and I'm curious as to why the Chyna comments seem to keep coming up as his most egregious lie. How he phrased it actually allowed Chyna to save face a little bit, since he implied porn in his comments and did not bring up that she was an escort for a while or how strung out she was.

Let's also not forget that the Chyna porn actually has people dressed up as popular wrestlers. This hypothetical 9 year old looking up Chyna would probably be pretty confused over that one.

I actually thought he was as respectful as he could be when talking about Chyna. He didn't make it a joke or anything and laid out quite reasonably why she won't be there at the moment while leaving the door open in the future.
