Shield Reunion Happening in the Future?
Although the idea is just tentative at this point, there have been talks within the WWE to have the Shield reunite in either late 2015 or 2016 for a short period of time and then maybe have them do it every couple of years.

wwe planning over a year in advance for something is absolutely hilarious
ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth, and again, plans can change, that first news item is a helluva reach even by my standards.
ReplyDelete1. Hell yes. The break up has been done perfect. Let Ambrose and Rollins get their feud over. Let the guys go their separate ways, then reunite later and the pop will blow the roof off of whatever building they are in.
ReplyDeleteSo Vince, does it take a lot of work to switch back and forth between gimmicks?
ReplyDeleteWhich discarded napkin was that first newsbit found on?
ReplyDeleteVince who?
ReplyDeleteCan they not just cancel Smackdown?
ReplyDeleteDidn't really care about Shield the first time around.
If Flair has to read off of a script then don't put him back on tv.
Lot of flame wars breaking out on golden state of mind and warriors world today. Its pretty funny to see wrestling board fights break out on a sports blog.
ReplyDeleteSo they'll change their minds in the Shield reunion forty kajillion times before now and 2016? What's the point of Meltzer even reporting something that far out?
ReplyDeleteI love how Meltzer reporting discussions is interpreted as Meltzer is reporting that something is FOR SURE GUYS happening.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for the Shield to reunite and then have them dump crap on Vince's head when he is rolled out in a wheelchair in 2018!
ReplyDeleteyou win
ReplyDeleteI personally want some Shield glow sticks in 2020.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly makes sense to do Shield reunions down the road, though I wish they'd give Reigns new music so that when they do reune, they could bring it back. I'm not sure if they can keep the Wyatt act going that long, but it would be great to give them an extended feud at some point. I just don't see how they can join together anytime in the next year given how strong their singles pushes are going now.
ReplyDeleteSome people have difficulty comprehending what they read
ReplyDeleteMagic sign Channing Frye for 4 years at $32 Million. That is laughable
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't call it perfect, it worked out way better than I expected it would, but it bugs me a little bit that Reigns didn't seem to mind his former partner hitting him with a sledgehammer all that much. Shouldn't there have been a reigns ambrose vs rollins HH match at a PPV?
ReplyDeleteBut I guess Bryan getting hurt meant they needed to speed things up.
It's a pretty minor complaint.
fair enough.
ReplyDeleteHe got a bigger deal than Spencer Hawes and the same amount per year the pacers offered Stephenson... That's terrible
ReplyDeleteI will say this about The Shield. Never has the WWE made me change my tune about some one or group faster. When they debuted at Survivor Series 2013 I (ashamedly, but honestly) thought, "Oh great, some jobbers they brought up as an excuse to have Cena / Ryback not win this match." By the time the next month's TLC was over, I was thinking "Good, god this is a super elite killing group of death."
ReplyDeleteI guess the one thing you can say about Frye is that other than one year where he was hurt he plays every game
ReplyDelete6'10 guys who can shoot three's and not play interior D aren't worth that much at all.
ReplyDeleteJohn Cena is SUPER over in South Sudan...
ReplyDeletehttps://www.google.co.uk/trends/explore#q=john%20cena
The fact that WWE booked them strong for an entire year and didn't blow it is amazing.
ReplyDeleteUnless Mike Dantoni is the coach
ReplyDeleteWM 29's top 2 matches were built 2 years, and 11 months in advance. And it got over a million buys. (but that doesn't count, right?)
ReplyDeleteI use my own account for Meltzer jokes, and end them with [/Meltzer]. Always have, always will.
ReplyDeleteFunny thing is that's what happened to Bosh this past year.
ReplyDeleteHe'll probably get new or tweaked music around Survivor Series, just in time for the for real main event push.
ReplyDeleteThey like anyone who promotes a food product. To them a guy on the fruity pebbles box is like The Million Dollar Man having a title belt made of diamonds to the rest of the world.
ReplyDeleteI hope so, and I hope they nail it. I love Ambrose's music, hate Rollins' music.
ReplyDelete"Although the idea is just tentative at this point, there have been talks within the WWE to have the Shield reunite in either late 2015 or 2016 for a short period of time and then maybe have them do it every couple of years."

If they cancelled Smackdown and put NXT on in it's place I wouldn't be mad.
ReplyDeleteIf Ambrose and Rollins ever bury the hatchet, Ambrose still needs to look Rollins in the eye for a long moment and punch him in the nose a few times. Then grab his hand, help him up, and finally give him the big bro hug the crowd will have been waiting for.
ReplyDeleteLooking at the leader board today is for me what it what it must have been like for most of MLB to look at the season home run leaders in 1998.
ReplyDeletePlease give this a rest
ReplyDeleteDidn't they debut in 2012?
ReplyDeleteI will give it a rest IF YOU get an ELITE account. You WILL KNOW the meaning of LIFE!!!! Also, where is Yoshi Tatsu headed?!!?! $9.99/month! ORDER NOW!
ReplyDeleteCredit: PWInsider.com
You didn't like the Shield?
ReplyDeleteYep, the Meltzer account IN MODERATION can be fun, but the Scherer one is just overkill.
ReplyDeleteI doubt there is even one person that finds any of this shit funny.
ReplyDeleteYup, my mistake! Keeping me on my toes, brother.
ReplyDeleteWell honestly I thought I had it wrong
ReplyDeleteNot amazing.. Miraculous!!
ReplyDeleteBigger news, Miami just signed Don Frye. The 55-year-old former MMA fighter had little to no prior basketball experience, but is expected to make a strong contribution as a court enforcer.
ReplyDeleteOther than the person doing it who think he's being "edgy" and "funny".
ReplyDeleteMore amazing, they overcame all that backstage heat they had and weren't buried!
ReplyDeleteYou'd be mad when they change the format of NXT and turn it into Smackdown-Lite. You'd be even madder when they panic a few months later and have all their Raw talent on the show to stem the ratings downturn.
ReplyDeleteSara, Hostel, Orchids, Ralphie, Deco, The Shord. I feel this is correct.
ReplyDeleteYou're stupid.
ReplyDeleteYep, one of the 2013 Survivor Series' lone highlights (Other than the epic Orton/Big Show main event that drew 13 billion PPV buys) was Roman getting 4 eliminations in the 5 on 5 Survivor Series match.
ReplyDeleteOn a serious note to something said below in jest, where is Yoshi Tatsu? I find out the other day that the dude was originally brought up with Tanahashi, Nakamura, and Shibata as the future of NJPW. Freakin' blew my mind.
ReplyDeleteI just want to say that the gimmick Meltzer and Scherer accounts are terrible.
ReplyDeleteWhich just shows you what they will do with KENTA. Jobbing on Superstars in less than a year.
ReplyDeleteThe report regarding a Shield reunion in 2015 is pretty ridiculous for Meltzer to report.
ReplyDeleteI can't remember the last time a group of babyfaces was booked as awesomely as the Shield from WrestleMania until they broke up after Payback. Just an absolute joy to watch.
ReplyDeleteYeah... though I guess I can't claim objectivity because I seem to be the only person who didn't find the Scherer situation at all funny.
ReplyDeleteTHAT'S CLASSIC SHIELD, MYGGLE!!
ReplyDeleteCan you book them to kill each other, in a dog kennel match or something?
ReplyDeleteThis x1000
ReplyDeleteThat's what his dog said.
ReplyDeleteAs soon as they find a racially insensitive stereotype (complete with catchphrase) for him to take on.
ReplyDeleteYou think Vince has see Hang Kong Phooey yet?
That poor dog.
ReplyDeleteWith the Shield it's kind of like when Hall and Oates split for a while in 1985. Like Reigns assuredly will, Hall had some solo success, charting with his album Three Hearts in a Happy Ending Machine, and, like Rollins and Ambrose, Oates made his own breaks, co-writing the hit single "Electric Blue" by the band Icehouse. Both worked respectably well on their own, but the parts still wanted the whole. And that's why the fans rejoiced in 1987 when news broke that Daryl and John were back in the studio together, working on the album that would be titled Ooh, Yeah! You guys remember what a mark out moment that was? Well, it's going to be the same thing when the Shield reunite. Mind you, Hall and Oates' greatest hits were already behind them, but their live show was still one of the best in the world, bar none.
ReplyDeleteDue to his love of poop jokes I figured Vince would go with I was thinking Sara, Hostel, Alpha, Ralphie, Tango.
ReplyDeleteNever thought I would upvote something from you
ReplyDeleteBow Wow changed his name to Shad Moss.
ReplyDeleteIn all fairness, I'd watch 100 Viscera matches if he was beating the piss out of Jarrett.
ReplyDeleteMeltzer was first funny when he debuted.
ReplyDeleteWill NJPW take him? Maybe let him try and get good. Let's not forget what WCW did to Yuji Nagata and Manabu Nakanishi, and they were able to rebound in Japan. The latter once put over Jim Powers.
ReplyDeleteWith Santino retiring what happens to Emma or is destined to become the next JTG?
ReplyDeleteOkay I posted this question on the Championship Wrestling thread -- but because I am interested in the Islanders heel turn -- I'll post it here:
ReplyDeleteThis question is kind of off-topic, but it still involved 1986-87 WWF TV programming, with maybe a reference to early 90's TV programing too:
Was Championship Wrestling and the early episodes of Superstars taped live? I mean was the announcing done live, or was it done in post production? Piper [and others] noted that the later years had them in the booth dubbing commentary and many have to remember that depending on the market - Superstars either was broadcasted on Saturday or Sunday. So even if they dubbed the broadcasting, they should of had time to edit for mistakes and goofs before broadcast. As a rabbit trail -- this is why I don't think "That's Tony Atlas" was a "shoot moment." In fact, weeks earlier Monsoon on PTW had admitted that Saba Simba was "Tony Atlas returning to his roots," so that was the idea all along -- and seriously -- who really though that was a good idea? [It might have been McMahon or Mooney at that point - but I think Samba Simba might have been pre-live version. Or I'm remembering Monsoon talking about Atlas on Wrestling Challenge.]
Okay back to the rabbit trail. If Piper had said something in a booth days before broadcast in the syndie market, then Vince could tell his hired goons to edit it out -- unless he had no problem with it. Okay so to the real question from 1987 . . .
I saw the video of the Islanders vs. the Can/Am Connection. They match that turned the Islanders from fun-loving Samoan Bros to bloodthirsty heels. It was from a post-WrestleMania SuperStars and still had Jesse, Vince, and Bruno as announcers. Bruno has a moment where he goes, "Last week Bobby Hennan promised us a new tag team - I checked this hour sheet and this is the only tag team on the sheet." You can actually hear a cringe in Vince's voice . . . as Jesse just starts giggling. Maybe it was planned, but history recorded that Vince and Bruno hadn't been on good terms since 1985 (or earlier) and Bruno was just about to finally leave for good. Maybe the broadcast had been recorded live, because Vince's cringe and trying to find the words to say is funny. "Uh, I think King . . . Harley Race is teaming up with . . . Hercules." Bruno: "That's not a tag team, or a new team. What are you laughing at?" "Jesse: Nuthin'."
Later in the match, Bobby shows up and the Islanders turn heel, winning by countout and all of a sudden Vince composes himself as Jesse keeps laughing and goes -- YOU KNEW ALL ALONG, JESSE. Jesse: I knew all along, but I wasn't telling you guys. Was that a cover up for Bruno's gaffe -- or did they set it up like that on purpose? The cringe in Vince's voice, however, makes it seem like Bruno "didn't stick to the script." Although, Bruno's comment comes right after a Islander mid-match promo where Tama just laughs and laughs and laughs and then all of a sudden Bruno goes -- you know Bobby . . . so maybe they just planned it that way.
Anybody got any thoughts on the Islanders heel turn in 1987?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...
Edit: Vince actually says -- I think it is Mr. Race . . . and Hercules in a tag . . . the cringe is funny. Bruno going -- well, yeah that's it -- was funny too. I guess Vince booked Bruno as senile.
Some old timers I run with on the interwebs found Scherer's meltdown on twitter funny. They didn't know what caused it. A lot of "Wow, he's still crazy." type stuff. I thought Bayless handled it the right way.
ReplyDeleteEspecially for a non contender like the Magic.
ReplyDeleteIt's almost like Dave Meltzer is embracing the "Dave Meltzer" gimmick from the BoD.
ReplyDelete"Remember when I invented the swanton bomb?" -- Hulk Hogan to Ric Flair in 2002. (Paraphrase)
ReplyDelete"Watching the Bulldogs no sell Foley's Elbow was classic."
"McMahon, you only complain when your boys lose." Jesse Ventura
"Ah, you know . . . my sheet doesn't say anything about this match, Vince. What is going on?" Bruno Sammartino, 1986
And for some reason, I want to watch the 1986 TImeline shoot with George Steele/Jim Marrs. Seriously, I love to talk a few hours with Marrs on both wrestling and theology.
I also want to see the RFVIDEO of Hillbily Jim shoot -- where he says "Uncle Elmer showed up."
Not really.
ReplyDeleteList of probable new names:
ReplyDeleteCapt. Klugman
Admiral Lansbury
Col. Van Dyke
What did they do anyway? Didn't shake hands properly? Eat all the chicken in catering? Take too long in a bathroom stall?
ReplyDeleteI love Perry, add I'm a diehard Bears fan. Kinda sad how he's doing these days.
ReplyDeleteSnitsky: IT'S NOT MY FALK.
ReplyDeleteA Grand Canyon Scaffold match
ReplyDeleteShe would certainly fit into CRYME TYME... Thank you, thank you, i'll be here all week.
ReplyDeleteDon't you have anything better to do? Like sit at home and watch some of Bret Hart's all time classic matches?
ReplyDeleteI was never, respectfully, a Santino fan. He was a jobber at best, who was annoying. He was kind of cool as the bland babyface from Italy, but then the E decided to turn him heel -- then give him a character of being annoying - even when he turned face. I haven't really paid attention to him for a few years, maybe he got better -- but seriously, I never really liked the guy.
ReplyDeleteI wish Epstein Ramon hasn't had a falling out with the E due to drugs or lack of interest or whatever it was. He was more entertaining than Santino was.
I would have loved to see Braun the Leprechaun wrestle Hornswoggle though. But then again, I the WWE network to create "The King Curtis Iukea Show" that highlights his ongoing feud with Hulk Hogan from 1986-87 until the Dungeon of Doom days. Why didn't he ever get over -- he screamed enough.
And bring the Machines back -- we can have Show Machine, Ryder Machine, Zigger Machine, and repackage a bunch of guys and pretend they are Japanese rednecks.
Better than the Scherer/Meltzer jokes.
ReplyDeleteThat is what I dont get:
ReplyDeleteTeams that are going nowhere are clogging up cap room with guys that are not going to be stars.
The Celts have like $75 million tied up in the next four years to give to Jeff Green and Avery Bradley.
My favorite Lawrence Taylor Falk moment was that time he wrestled. He also cut a promo once.
ReplyDeleteYou're a funny mother fucker.
ReplyDeleteI believe all of the above.
ReplyDeletefg76, you have a lot to say.
ReplyDeleteCould be something wrong with the master tape.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Vince just discovered Wynonia Ryder was in court for stealing and asked Emma to turn it into a gimmick. And that's a shoot, brudda.
ReplyDeleteEveryone knows Timothy Well carried that team.
ReplyDeleteLikewise. Didn't even bother to comment on it.
ReplyDeleteThe Meltzer one is okay in very small doses.
ReplyDeleteYou're not funny.
ReplyDeleteHow dare you!
ReplyDeleteAnyone watch that Turtle Power documentary on Netflix yet? Thinking about checking it out
ReplyDeleteIs that already out? I know what I'm watching when I get home from the gym.
ReplyDeleteYou think people will still be using napkins in the year 2016? Or is this mouth vacuum thing for real?
ReplyDeleteWhat else could he do?
ReplyDeleteNah, at least some news is being presented.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the dog account better.
ReplyDeleteNever forget Snuggles.
ReplyDeleteAs someone said, they must have been booked by a different Booker.
ReplyDeleteIt would be an improvement.
ReplyDeletePlus there were pieces of that interview that hadn't been used up until last night. It was a good hour of wrestling in a documentary style, and a great teaser.
ReplyDeleteAh i didn't know it was just a sneak.
ReplyDeleteanyone watch the monday night war preview ep?
ReplyDeletedidnt read the live thread, but i hope someone invoked "STUPID! STUPID!" when orton botched the dropkick last night
ReplyDeleteSUMMER OF FALK. He has one more match under contract, FOR THE BELT.
ReplyDelete*top gun handshake*
ReplyDeletelast night when fandango stood up and his music hit, it was the epitome of "why the hell did his music hit? did he pay off the sound guy?"
ReplyDeleteI agree about the Bischoff titantron interview, but it WAS very informative. It's like they knew they had him under contract and wanted to get the info out of him before he left. I was quite surprised to see Schiavone on there, and that 1998 Ted Turner interview was the most I had ever seen him talk about it. I always thought he was some billionaire who just gave Bischoff money to throw at talent. Now I can see why Vince went after him so hard as WCW enemy #1.
ReplyDeleteI have more of a problem with people like The Miz, Cody Rhodes, and Kofi Kingston being interviewed as "fans" of the product at the time, gushing over big moments. "Wow! They have LUGER now?" I would rather just see people who were involved at the time (Vince, Bischoff, HHH, Foley, Austin, etc.) They do the same thing for "WrestleMania Rewind" and it feels like a WWE Universe-ification of everything.
If it's going to be the suggested 20 something episode series, I'm excited to see where it goes. I felt it was more honest than the "Monday Night War" DVD from a decade ago (Prime Time with the studio audience DID suck), but I hope they put the episodes of Nitro up when they get to the August 1995 Raws.
Check out that botched lariat at 1:25 where he hurts his own arm. Falk can work SSW Main Event Style. He'll probably debut in WWE as the ADOPTED Son-of-a-Son-of-a-Plumber, if you will. You will remember the name...FALKDUST!
ReplyDeletevince is awesome
ReplyDeletereminds me of the drawing when it was revealed that professor x was onslaught
I can't imagine that anything at all that makes it to air on syndicated shows - even back then - wasn't planned. They could always clean up commentary in post-production and most likely did to tell a story. The WWF was much better at telling stories through the announce teams back then, because there was a level of competency that you don't see today.
ReplyDeleteThere's no way the Islanders thing was a random screw up, and there's no way VKM wasn't OK with "Hey! It's Tony Atlas" as a throw-away comment. The WWE may have their moments of ineptitude now, but things always seemed to make more sense 25-30 years ago.
I have no doubt that fighting game would have been terrible. Although I like the concept of McMahon in Luthor-type armor. That was a nice touch.
ReplyDeleteSo, I missed our new lord and master of the comments taking his throne last night as I had a work function and then came straight to bed. So, in honor of ABeyAnce1 taking the top spot on the BoD Comment board, I would like to officially say to him:
ReplyDeleteHey.
Watched the first SNME for the first time ever today. Going to continue through with some more this afternoon. Really fun stuff.
ReplyDeleteI still can't believe they were able to get Cyndi Lauper to be so heavily involved with the product.
You have a Vince McMahon-like finger on the pulse of relevant BoD happenings, so allow me to be the 478th person to clue you in:
ReplyDeleteTHIS. IS. NO. LONGER. A. THING.
Meltzer is going over board assuming Vince muttering something about Shield reunion late 2015 before yelling "I SAID BUFFALO SAUCE DAMNIT!" as "tentative plans"
ReplyDeleteThe borderline racist commentary by Cornette is the episode could be the issue. Call Jerry McDevitt ASAP!
ReplyDeleteSorry, but as cool an idea as a Shield reunion would sound, they've created a major blood feud with Ambrose and Rollins to the point that such an idea is no longer viable. Too late to the put that genie back in the bottle.
ReplyDeleteWow that is pretty bad ass looking
ReplyDeleteNikolai Falkoff
ReplyDeleteCap is going to skyrocket over the next few seasons.
ReplyDeleteIf Bradley can stay on the court he will live up to that deal. Green was supposed to be the guy or at least the 2nd guy.They fucked that up.
The real deal in Orlando to wonder about is giving Ben Gordon 9 mill over 2 years. Theres a salary floor but why not over pay somebody thats useful like they did withs Fryes deal. They need a small forward, why not make Parsons an offer the Rockets cant match.
Barenaked Ladies providing the soundtrack
ReplyDeleteLike the blood feud between Triple H and Randy Orton?
ReplyDeleteEven if it's explicitly explained, Vince Jordan will still make his obnoxious flippant posts.
ReplyDeleteHAW HAW Look at that Reigns MAGGLE, He's making cock jokes and havin' fun!!
ReplyDeleteT.
ReplyDeleteI am currently in the midst of an investigation.
ReplyDeleteI will keep you all updated
Haha, this is wrestling, anyone can team up after a major feud.
ReplyDeleteSaw today that Joe Whatsisname that hosted Raw with Arnold is dicking down Sofia Vergara. So that is some news.
ReplyDeleteCan't disagree. Just laugh at the cringe in Vince's voice when Bruno asks him the question. "Mr. Race is scheduled later, and I believe . . . we will see Hercules and Race in a tag." But Bruno seems to give also a sarcastic -- oh okay then. Sometimes I'm amazed that Bruno stayed with the company as long as he did. I think it might be based on a settled lawsuit or something, but seriously -- Bruno as the third wheel on superstars never really worked.
ReplyDeleteRadical!
ReplyDeleteBruno was just not cut out for commentary. Hell of a wrestler, hell of an athlete. But the idea of a guy like Bruno doing commentary just did not work.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they just stumbled upon the face/heel dynamic of McMahon/Ventura and Monsoon/Heenan or if it was a planned thing. Because once they got into the groove, things just seemed to click.
Hey, cutting edge news ain't free....
ReplyDeleteNot nearly that much money. Bradley 4/32 and green has an option for 2015-2016 , that he will likely decline. Assessments on the players I agree with
ReplyDeleteThe Gordon deal isn't as damaging as people want to make it out to be
ReplyDeleteOh dear sweet wounded baby Jesus. Just started the second SNME. Uncle Elmer's wedding? Holy crap.
ReplyDeleteYou guys see Sting being all cryptic on twitter?
ReplyDeleteYeah that's next Monday, right?
ReplyDeleteIt is... Could be something orrrrr could be him being announced to be in the next 2k game
ReplyDeleteHas anyone checked out the outrage on the WWE free preview site in the comments section? I have a feeling that 90% "satisfaction" rating is going to go down the toilet (but I bet that's doctored like those "Did You Know" segments).
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite responses:
"i have a account and i cant see the war vers wwe and cant see what i wanted to see they say free and sounds good and all i know they want to make money cool with that but i want to see it on my tv but i not going to go out buy some thing to see it it cost money i not rich and cant aford it if they love there fans as the wwe saids they do make it so it is easey to get on tv and all it not i watch raw and smackdown i was watching the divas all the time now i cant why you make it so hard to do what we want to do kerryhoffmann@yahoo.com"
Besides the inability of this man to have proper grammar or spelling, it seems like he's really outraged over not being able to watch his divas!
Probably this. I bet Sting gets turned on a lot in Universe Mode. Just having Sting in the game isn't enough for me to buy, though, as people made some pretty awesome CAWs.
ReplyDeleteWell TNA is taped through July so it probably isn't that. So either a WWE debut, a trading card convention appearance, or perhaps the announcement of when his DVD will be released?
ReplyDeleteMade 22771+ comments did not draw a dime.
ReplyDeleteMuch obliged (tips hat).
ReplyDeleteI weep for humanity.
ReplyDeleteThey should have just made a WWE version of Final Fight and you could select a superstar and go through it. They could use a few other superstars as the final bosses or something. People would eat that stuff up.
ReplyDeleteSteve Borden or Gordon Sumner?
ReplyDeleteFunny tweets from the Canadian Bulldog (don't act like you don't know who he is!):
ReplyDeleteIs sent to NXT for evaluation; forced to change his name to Peter Stingovitch. #BadStingBooking
Debuts on Raw, shouts "It's Showtime!", which is just him announcing the 400th return of Big Show. #BadStingBooking
They should've moved Smackdown! to the Network.
ReplyDeleteWell that's it. Without Felk I'm through with this promotion.
ReplyDeleteId actually love for the shield to reunite every year for one night only at wrestlemania. The are undefeated there as a unit, and could just come together once a year, putting aside whatever issues they have to defend their legacy, squash some lower card act or NxT threat, and then wrestle separate singles matches on the show. Even if it ends up with Ambrose and Rollins teaming only to fight later in the night, I think we could get some cool stories out of it.
ReplyDeleteDo it for a few years and then put over your next big group at some point. Would be something different at least.
I'm mad too now that I know the WWE is withholding a WAR vs. WWE supercard from us. I bet Genichiro Tenryu vs. "The Game" HHH is all kinds of awesome.
ReplyDeleteGive 'em hell K-Hoff!
Year 2038 or so....
ReplyDeleteHeyman: MY CLIENTS..... THE JUNIOR THRRREEEEE MAN BAND ... CONQUERED... THE STTREEEAAKK!!
Well yesterday was a good day for the Network, you know what means, a month of nothing is on deck.
ReplyDeleteRemember when Triple H screwed over DX then they got back together later that year?
ReplyDeleteLate 2015?! Moar like late 2014 please.
ReplyDeleteThey must be editing something out because it is listed on the schedule on the live stream in the appropriate spot
ReplyDeleteIt's on the live stream schedule so must be editing something out of it
ReplyDeleteAnyone else think it is kind of disturbing that ESPN puts pictures of 90% naked athletes on their front page all day today? What if someone underage is visiting the website? I swear some people have no brains at all.
ReplyDeleteLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL @ them plotting anything that far in advance.
ReplyDeleteMore like a Meltzer assumption than an actual report.
ReplyDeleteSee my comment from the start of the thread. WM 29 got over 1 million buys with the top 2 matches being planned respectively 2 years and 11 months in advance.
ReplyDeleteBut they had The Rock.
ReplyDeleteNeither of those were creative's decisions. Rocky was a contract and Shawn and Taker do their own thing outside of those wastes.
ReplyDeleteYou know how this works, they'll decide a week before the reunion to drop a hint then pretend like it had been obvious in the storylines for months.
Despite the same first name, I claim NO relation to that uneducated twit.
ReplyDeleteCena/Undertaker/Rey in Cody/Haggar/Guy roles would've been perfectly blatant. I would've played it.
ReplyDeleteIts 2 years down the road dude. You really think this awesome Rollins/Ambrose fued will last that long. They have a better chance at being a tag team a year from now then fueding at Survivor Series
ReplyDeleteBecause people under the age of 18 never, ever, ever look at porno.
ReplyDeleteWhat did he say?
ReplyDeleteIt's not porn...it's art. Especially if the artist in question is Alexis Texas.
ReplyDeletein 2038 Brock would STILL be the one to conquer that streak.
ReplyDeleteMy friend and I both watched Bunkhouse Stampede 88 last night. That was a show we read about in the Apter mags after it happened, but he never saw it till last night (I saw a home video version awhile back). What a poorly-booked, boring show. I loathe the "Because WCW" meme around here, but it's apt here. Or maybe it should be "Because Dusty," since he was booking and put himself over hotter, younger talent in the ME. I don't get why two titles were challenged for by tag wrestlers (Hawk, Bobby Eaton), or why the Western States Heritage title was defended in New York state. Meh.
ReplyDeleteDownvote for BNL reference. They suck, and so does the Big Bang Theory song. And so does Big Bang Theory.
ReplyDelete22771 comments and most were 4 letters or less.
ReplyDeleteThe Berserker has a shot at the #1 spot if he posts "Huss" every hour on the hour for 6 months.
Yeah, they could be the Undertaker of tag teams.
ReplyDeleteThey really have an on and off relationship with that one.
ReplyDeleteSadly that wouldn't put him in the ballpark as it would only be 4320 posts (assuming 30 day months).
ReplyDeleteThanks man.
ReplyDeleteThat's the only way it could happen.
ReplyDeleteSomeone put up a video package.
ReplyDelete*Selects Cena*
ReplyDelete*Starts game*
*All the bad guys die and the words "CENAWINSLOL" immediately pop up on screen*
*end credits roll*
Yeah. Punctuation would have helped.
