I had never heard of him before that HHH thing and I liked him okay up until I saw he was sitting there with his disgusting bare feet on show and from that moment on I hated his loving guts, ugh

205 live has been really fun for like a month straight and the Neville/Gallagher fued is being built really well. Also Bayley and Enzo are still good.

On one hand I love Lou Parper and Big Breakfast and Husky "Waylon Mercy" Harris getting big pushes and looking great in the ring. On the other hand I love AJ Styles so it's depressing to think that even though he's the 2nd-to-last man in all these matches, he's going to end up with a spotmonkey match against Shane. I'd much rather have him in a triple threat with the swampmens.

True, but on the other hand, AJ is probably the most entertaining option if we're stuck with a Shane match regardless. AJ can do a million cool moves on and around Shane while we wait for Shane to jump off of something very high.

The worry shouldn't be whether or not they have a good match, the worry will be whether or not they have AJ job to Shane because he isn't big. Because that would be loving stupid, and its exactly the sort of thing WWE would do.

I kinda have this feeling Shane's spot monkey offense might gel super well with AJ but that might just be wishful thinking.

They're literal twins. Not like they had R Truth and Kofi out there doing twin magic

That one time they had Ziggler and R-Truth come out as a tag team, Truth was dressed like ziggler and calling himself R-Ziggler, and they tried to pull twin magic was phenomenal though.

I went to all the same BTW shows in Newark that Bayley did and saw her actual wrestling debut in person. I'm so proud of all her success, and she's fantastic.


I did see Goldust at a show and he was an unbelievable rear end in a top hat.

Styles has that quality that Flair or HBK had, the kind of guy who can have a good match with a broomstick as they say. Sadly a feud with Shane is just boring in my mind, even if Styles makes a solid match out of it. Unless they bring some other wrestler into the equation, which I figured they'd do with Undertaker vs Shane but nope.

He comes off as REALLY loving pretentious. That's what annoys me about him.

He also does that thing where, when a movie of his is poorly received, it's always because the studio interfered or the audience wasn't ready for his great idea. Like when American Ultra tanked it was because "audiences don't want original ideas anymore" even though it was basically just a Chuck spec script. He acts like he's the loving god-king of movies when if he didn't have a famous dad he'd be waiting tables.

Both Chronicle and American Ultra owned. If Max Landis wanted to be hated less he should just shut the gently caress up.

But I like his wrestling stuff though. Except the stuff about Triple H.

Shane only exists to do stupid stunts and put other people over. When's the last time he actually won a feud, X-Pac?

Shane is the pure definition of spot monkey. He doesn't know how to work or pace a real match. You are just waiting for his next spot.

Osprey can work though. Shane is literally a guy who just goes from one spot to another.

It's a pejorative because it implies a wrestler who has no skills or charisma and just relies on jumping off of stuff (no skill needed, just the balls to do so) to get over.

Maybe Shane will team up with Nakamura and force AJ into a handicapped match, then while Shane sets up for his next big bump Nakamura and AJ can make some magic.

That's totally gonna happen... right dudes?

I'm still hoping AJ will demand a match with Shane who will laugh because "I'm not a wrestler!" and then pick Shinsuke as his champion to fight on his behalf.

Then at Wrestlemania we can have "This match is only even once before!"

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

I really thought Shane/Undertaker was plotted about as well as it could be done, given the gist of it was Shane getting the poo poo kicked out of him until Undertaker did something stupid and knocked himself loopy on the stairs to even things
