I cannot imagine a match I care about less than this one tonight.

Just heard about Aleister's release because he suddenly showed up on Thea's stream (which I thought was abandoned)

I guess I should stop calling him Aleister and start calling him Tommy End again

I'm happy for Big E, I hope he gets a long reign. I won't watch any of it though.

Speaking of things I won't watch, am I understanding it correctly that there are now two evil dolls?

Lex's look of confusion really sells the whole thing

iirc lex was the only one who reacted in a way that made sense, the other members of the team just started celebrating even though they couldn't see the inside of Taker's coat. Lex took the time to check wtf was going on before throwing his arms up

yea but the goon phil helmuth; whatever his name was, (fragmaster maybe?)

Bill Filmaff was Fragmaster, yeah. He actually did a wrestling-style entrance in one of those videos and his music was himself rapping over, I think, the British National Anthem.

Who was it that was fired/quit so one of the AKI games gave their entire moveset to someone else? I think it was a really funny combination, like Spike Dudley had the Big Show's moveset or something.

I think she challenged Sonya once a few weeks ago actually and Sonya turned it down, only to now change her mind for no reason. There should have been a segment where Naomi provoked Sonya into physical action. I know it sounds lame and typical but even something like Naomi slapping Sonya would have been a better reason for Sonya to change her mind about wrestling Naomi than nothing at all.

Naomi should have a Stone Cold gimmick where she hits people with The Rear View out of nowhere!

I'm not wishing for anyone to get fired but I'm very entertained by the thought of Nick Khan seeing the head2head demographic ratings, checking how much Roman and (especially) Lesnar are paid, and a smash cut to Vince doing his gulp.gif

someone got me tickets to smack down next month for my birthday. I haven’t watched anything wwe since probably wrestlemania. who is even on smack down. is anything there good?

the indie shows haven’t really come back to ct yet like they were before Covid and no chance aew can get in an arena here

I don't know who actually is on Smackdown due to not watching + they just did a draft. WWE has a stacked roster so I'm sure some of them are good. I think Nakamura and Cesaro are Smackdown?

The plus side is that being there live means you won't deal with the nauseating camera work or miserable commentary, so I hope you have fun :) Happy Birthday!

The egg is in The Rocks new movie. The Rock did not appear on the show

I feel like this doesn't explain anything!

Is Vince holding the egg hostage and The Rock has to appear in WWE to get it back? Did Vince steal it off the movie set and these are his demands?

I went into the vignette expecting it to be extremely vague about who "Daddy" was, but it's pretty explicit it's her actual father who spoils her.

That being said they're totally gonna have Grimes become her sugar daddy because there's no way WWE is going to have any class.

as the divide between the haves and have nots grows ever wider, sugar daddies will be more and more of a thing. so its funny you would mention class :cheeky:

this is actually WWE being ahead of the curve for the first time in its history

You should look up the match between Orange Cassidy and Gentleman Jervis then
Big fan of this match, naturally :D OC getting rocked to sleep is such a great spot. And him rolling over at the most inconvenient time, so Jervis can't get the pinfall. As usual with silly matches, the fact that the crowd plays along makes it so much better.

ACH and Cedric Alexander had a match on an indie during some Wrestlemania weekend where they were both super hungover and had a no-loud noises match which I feel fits into that realm of thought

I've never heard of this, I need to check it out! The idea alone is really good. I immediately imagined that I chop you, the crowd yells "WOOOO!" and we both fall over clutching our heads, while I moan to the ref that he needs to DQ the entire crowd, and you dry heave in the corner.

Chikara had their own version of that for a while. There was a tag team called NRG that was basically just High Energy with the joke that one tag member (Race Jaxon) got a good night sleep the night before while his partner (Hype Rockwell) was the one driving them to the city of the venue. So Race would be all pumped up and ready while Hype would be falling asleep on the ring apron.

The payoff was that retired wrestler Vin Gerard had started his own brand of energy drink, so Hype took it during a match and pepped up enough for them to win. After that, they just became High Energy.

That's cool too. None of these replies really feature a huge fat guy (or gal) that beats you up for interrupting their sleep though.

Hey wasn't it last year that Alexa was going to Transform Into Mumm-Ra The Ever Living but someone tossed her out before she could?

Just like with KO, I'm glad Sami is getting lots of money. He's good and I'd like to see him again, but I don't watch WWE unless a funny clip gets posted here, so he's effectively just retired to me. Doesn't seem worth caring about beyond that, really.
