I absolutely need to see Taker vs Sting no matter how much of a shitshow it ends up to be. That's only thing I'll agree with that guy on. Taker looks he was freshly microwaved back to life. Or kept in a glass tube and fed nothing but litanies of how police brutality is totally justified.

Won’t that never happen because Rollins inadvertently retired Sting?

OFFICIAL RACIST
From WrestleForum in a thread titled "So how long until that loudmouth Matt “Done nothing” Riddle gets fired":

quote:

His comments about Goldberg were very disrespectful and not necessary. Goldberg accomplished more in 1 day than Matt has done in his whole career. This type of stupid shitposting on twitter needs to be handled by wwe and I wouldn’t be surprised if his dumbass gets let go. Thoughts on how long he lasts?

quote:

Burying a main event guy isn’t a good look for the company . What’s next...someone burying Roman for a botch? Is Goldberg old...yes...should the match not happened...probably. But he still got ready for the match and gave it his all and that has to be respected and lack of respect by these no name wrestlers is pathetic and shows how stupid they are.

Someone brought up that Matt Riddle was 7-3 in MMA (he was actually 8-3 but whatever), and this was the guy's response (apparently math is hard for this guy):

quote:

Thanks, proved my point. He isn’t as tough as he thinks getting his rear end beat 3 times. Having a 57% win percentage isn’t impressive and also getting fired for being a dumbass is again not impressive. The guy is just full of himself and lives his own hype.

quote:

Agreed. Especially pioneers like Goldberg and taker. They did more for the business than he ever will and Goldberg to this day was still a draw at WM and raw shows and put butts in seats.

quote:

You are missing the point. It doesn’t matter! It’s about respecting the legends who paved the way for everyone today. Based on your logic, why isn’t he tweeting Vince is senile and needs to stop controlling creative? That’s also true yet no one who wants to work there would say it.

I fully support this idiot on his efforts to get Matt Riddle released. In fact, any WWE star who is critical of Bill Goldberg needs to be released.

Maybe if one of them dropped the other straight on the top of their head, that would liven things up. At least, according to The Right Rev. Galaxy Brains there in that tweet.

Now I'm picturing Michelle McCool trying to drag Taker away and shouting at him while he and Goldberg are tussling.

They could just do an Undertaker vs Sting Survivor Series match to drum up interest without either man having to compete but both using their tricks on each other's teams and poo poo :shrug:

Sting's Finn Balor (Sting), Ricochet (Rey Mysterio) , Braun Strowman (The Giant), The Viking Experience (Legion of Doom)
Undertaker's Seth Rollins (Retired Sting), Aleister Black (Spooky), Bray Wyatt (Spooky), Authors of Pain (Have spooky masks)

Too bad we'll get Team Baron Corbin vs Team Whatever random babyfaces

A trained fighter in his actual prime is going to be an old man with no legit fight training, no matter how big the old man is. Riddle would win in like a minute.

Goldberg actually has legit fight training and a couple of years almost signed for a kickboxing match. He obviously wouldn't win in a fight against a younger real fighter but he has trained.

Goldberg's whole WCW gimmick leveraged the idea that he was a "real fighter", what with his MMA gloves, plain black trunks and entrance being a follow cam of security escorting him from the locker room to the ring like a real fighter

I was gonna point out Mickey Rourke won a boxing match after a 20 year layoff but it turns out his opponent was paid to dive in the 2nd.

Anyway, if Riddle wants to angle his way into some kind of match against Goldberg, at least make sure the money's legit first.

And even Mickey Rourke was scared of Jericho, cementing Jericho's position as toughest shoot fighter

It's Ricochet's fault that his matches suck now, until Dream makes it to TV, gets neutered like everyone else with any character in NXT, and then he'll be favoriting tweets in 5 months about how he's under-utilized and would be better outside the WWE

Every NXT signing thinks they're going to be the exception to the main roster's bad booking until they get there and are humiliated and defeated. The only right way to treat WWE is as a retirement home like Nakamura did

I don't think the NXT UK guys banding together to dogpile on someone was sarcastic, some of these people, especially a guy like Dream who got his start in WWE and hasn't had time to be bitter probably unironically believe Vince is a genius in 2019
