They say undisclosed injury as if it didn't happen in the ring, but more like it happened someplace else.......
ReplyDeleteI never use the word "buried", merely because it's an overused term and commonly misused, but Del Rio never fully recovered after he lost to Edge and then they destroyed his car to add insult to injury.
ReplyDeleteForgot to add that it was a minor injury too
ReplyDeleteRF Video usually has a good Black Friday sale. I might pick this one up
ReplyDeleteTotally forgot their is a RoH PPV tonight.
ReplyDeleteDildo related injury?
ReplyDeleteWrong hole?
ReplyDeleteSo did the world.
ReplyDeleteExactly. I think ACH is in the main event
ReplyDeleteOuch, Massachusetts is building a really poor reputation.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. He not only lost, but Edge countered out of his then unbreakable finisher. Hell, even when HBK beat Chris Masters in 2005, he couldn't get out of the Masterlock, he had to get to the ropes. Edge just countered the arm breaker as if it was an arm bar. CRED LOST.
ReplyDeleteFuck that, not spending $35 for it.
ReplyDeleteWas that finish at Mania changed just as a swerve? It didn't make sense on the night, and a week or so later it REALLY didn't make much sense.
ReplyDeleteI think it was changed cause they knew Edge was done.
ReplyDeleteRicardo said in his shoot that Del Rio was originally supposed to win too. But because of it being Edge's last match, they changed the finish. I view Edge as someone who has a smart mind, so it puzzles me that he agreed with that finish. He should have made Del Rio look like a million bucks on his way out.
ReplyDeleteOne of those 2 has to be the reason.
ReplyDeleteI guess it was nice they did that for Edge, but come on. Whatever happened to the "Time honoured tradition" Vince?
ReplyDeleteIt died the moment Bret refused to drop the title in Montreal.
ReplyDeleteBret screwed Del Rio :(
ReplyDeleteIt would be hilarious if ACH won the RoH title.
ReplyDeleteHey, better than the overrated bigot they have the title on now.
ReplyDeleteHuh, thought Edge didn't know 'til after Mania. Wasn't that general thought at the time? Doctor before the match, but results after?
ReplyDeleteTrue.
ReplyDeleteAccording to Ricardo, he found out a few days before Mania.
ReplyDeleteI'm about to buy a ticket to WrestleMania. Figure if I don't go I can end up just selling it.
ReplyDeleteSo I'm watching Wrestlemania IV last night, and I have to add this:
ReplyDeletethe match between Jake Roberts and Rick Rude was a good match. It has gotten dumped on over time as being boring, but I disagree. There are a couple of reverse headlock spots but they are not too prolonged that it drags the match down. It goes back and forth quite a bit, but the only thing it was lacking was a countdown to the time limit expiring. That would have given it some urgency at the end.
I would give the match ***. Much better over time.
It's not bad. But I think there's a boredom zone that show takes you to that is very difficult to come out of, no matter how good some individual parts are.
ReplyDeleteYou sure? 50 cents per flippity flop!
ReplyDeleteLol hell no. And I'm not going to stream. I don't have anything but an IPAD and a phone so it wouldn't be very enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteSadly, it was about a month BEFORE their heated feud over Jake's wife. So it was just kind of a random match.
ReplyDeleteIn regards to what ?
ReplyDeleteBetter than Elgin
ReplyDeleteI think the crowd dies about halfway through the show, and they don't recover until Macho hits the elbow on DiBiase.
ReplyDeleteTickets on sale now!!!! Hurry and buy them baby!
ReplyDeleteIf only they had some sort of... Network, where you could watch it on your Ipad, and would have to pay about 3.5x less than their asking price...
ReplyDeleteElgin exposed himself once he started wrestling long matches.
ReplyDeleteThe rumour I heard was boob job
ReplyDeleteI only started watching rasslin' around 2 months after WM 4, but it must have been a hell of a shock for everyone watching it live when Hogan/Andre both got eliminated. I'm guessing, especially for marks, that the Winner of that match was a foregone conclusion to win the title.
ReplyDeleteToo far. Rather spend 9.99 than 999.99 and freeze my ass of.
ReplyDeleteI remember thinking that it was going to come down to DiBiase and Savage, and thinking that DiBiase still had a shot.
ReplyDeleteThey must have been pissed. To go in there expecting 3 Hogan matches and ending up with a 4 minute double DQ and both are out.
ReplyDeleteCool thing with the power rankings. Reminds me a bit of the WCW top ten.
ReplyDeleteI'm only spending $500; I've never been out there so taking a week long vacation by myself will be enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteWell, $500 per ticket. The trip itself will probably be around two grand.
ReplyDeleteFYI: You're gonna have to drive far away from San Fran if you want to go to the beach.
ReplyDeleteNo desire to go to a Beach. Just going to cruise San Jose and San Fran.
ReplyDeleteYou said Adam Cole would be in NXT until 2015, let's see if that prediction is right.
ReplyDeleteGonna watch all the WWF stuff I can from 1992 today
ReplyDeleteHe is a dumb oaf
ReplyDeleteIt would be awesome if he won the title. ACH is young, exciting, and plays the baby face part perfectly in matches. He's very close to making the leap from fun wrestler to consistent 4 star plus matches.
ReplyDeleteI know he's not going to win it yet, but it would be cool if he did. The Briscoe/Cole match at FB seems to be what the company has built itself around.
My suspicion is that they knew well before Mania. Christian was getting involved in the storyline in the weeks leading up to WM27 and there were rumours the match would be made into a three-way dance. In hindsight, Christian was probably there in case Edge really couldn't go, but in the end Edge toughed it out for (pardon the pun) one more match.
ReplyDeleteThe "had a doctor's appointment after Mania" thing was probably just a public excuse to get WWE off the hook for allowing a guy with a severely messed-up neck to wrestle.
I'm kinda shocked Cole isn't in NXT yet...
ReplyDeleteI think that was me, and he should be in NXT.
ReplyDeleteBought a riser seat for $450. Looks like it will be a good seat. Tickets are a little pricier this year.
ReplyDeleteBetter than that piece of shit Jay Briscoe, that's for sure.
ReplyDeleteHe has the 98 Shawn charisma, no way WWE is gonna lose that guy.
ReplyDeleteACH does a Kamehameha as one of his moves, and that guy is charisma machine.
ReplyDeleteTrue. Why haven't they moved past him yet?
ReplyDeleteFor Mania?
ReplyDelete...no there isn't. There is a live event that will be up on demand after the show. Their next traditional ppv isn't until FB in December.
ReplyDeleteAt this point they'll take whoever they can get.
ReplyDeleteIt's online. It's $15, not $35
ReplyDeleteFinal Battle will be 35 on pay per view next month.
Yeah, figured it would get a good discussion going.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing because the Briscoes are the face of ROH. They're insanely loyal to it and they always draw. I think with all the Elgin issues, they kinda wanted to stabilize the title and stuck it on a guy they know wouldn't leave tomorrow. He'll just make homophobic comments on Twitter instead.
ReplyDeleteThey should've kept the belt on Elgin until FB, then the winner of SOFT Aj Styles challenges him and takes the belt.
ReplyDeleteToo bad this doesn't have JR comparing the wrestlers to football players :(
ReplyDeleteProbably because it's not a ppv (you can't even watch it live) so why would they blow through a top contender
ReplyDeleteThat is pricy but enjoy.
ReplyDeleteMania is on my bucket list but not this year. Ive spent all my money on a condo and a vacation.
He's getting the TV from Lethal if Evans doesn't win.
ReplyDeleteThat was likely the plan, but Elgin kinda forced their hand there. Guy's going to be as unemployable as Davey and Aries at this rate....
ReplyDeleteI almost went to WM 29.
ReplyDeleteThat's bad because I enjoy his work, his win over Cole at Best in the world was a feel good moment.
ReplyDeleteYou lost nothing.
ReplyDeleteCurrently who do you think will play each other in the Superbowl?
ReplyDeleteNope. It wasn't worth the 6 hour trip or the 90 dollars.
ReplyDeleteI'm watching the Moondogs return to Memphis, what started as Moondogs/Fuller & Some guy became Moondogs/Fuller & Jarrett, and is now becoming Moondogs/Jarrett & Lawler.
ReplyDeleteWhen he has the right opponent and isn't forced to carry a match on his own, he's great. Did you see the match between him and Tomoso Ciampa at BOLA '14? That's the kind of match he needs to have more often. But yeah, he could be great if he could get his head out of his ass.
ReplyDeleteThat card sucked. I think only watched Punk/Taker and the main event.
ReplyDeleteThat was a good HOSS Division fight.
ReplyDeleteI'd do the math, but then I realize I'd be supporting a bad Vince Jordan joke. And NOBODY should find themselves in that position.
ReplyDeletePatriots vs. Packers.
ReplyDeleteThat or Patriots/Cowboys would be my Meteor Game.
ReplyDeleteAnd the main was shit.
ReplyDeleteI was there and it kinda sucked. The Del Rio/Swagger and HHH/Lesnar matches killed the crowd dead. It was around then it started to get cold and no one really wanted to be there anymore. I'm happy I went, but I wouldn't do an outdoor stadium show again.
ReplyDeleteThe NFC is one big coin-flip right now. So, I just went with the team with the best QB, can play in any condition, and can get hot at the end of the season.
ReplyDeleteIt was good to see Superman getting booed out of the building.
ReplyDeleteI still wish "Cena Sucks" in tune to his theme would have taken off.
ReplyDeleteThat was one of the few matches where I was pulling for Cena, because fuck this part-timer bullshit.
ReplyDeleteAJ isn't getting the belt, nor should he. And I don't think he even wants it.
ReplyDeleteI did too
ReplyDeleteOh, guess I misread something
ReplyDeleteHonky Tonk Man and Randy Savage produced some of the most unintentionally hilarious promos of all time. "East of the Pacific, west of London, south of Saturn and north of Hell, Ooh Yeah!"
ReplyDeleteCan't discount Honky's "I'll be Elizabeth's teddy bear, and Randy Savage is going to the Gheeeeet-O!" either. Cocaine is a hell of a drug...
I'm cramming some old SNME shows before Mississippi State-Alabama.
ReplyDeleteWho had a better year in 1992, WCW or WWF?
ReplyDeleteLet's not forget WCW that year had The Dangerous Alliance.
I feel bad for Eva Marie. She's the future of women's wrestling.
ReplyDeleteWCW by a hair. Both were awesome.
ReplyDeleteThat means they'll give him the title in five years then.
ReplyDeleteTwo Flair title wins, the Rumble itself, Flair/Savage and Piper/Bret at Mania, Summerslam 92, Bret Hart hitting the main event, Shawn Michaels as a single, I gotta give it to the WWF. WCW had it's really awesome moments, but it was also ungodly boring for much of the year under Watts.
ReplyDeleteError 404, sarcasm meter in overload.
ReplyDeleteThat's a tough one.
ReplyDeleteDidn't Cena even play along with that a few weeks ago? like an orchestra director? I like how he doesn't take himself too seriously.
ReplyDeleteBroncos vs. Cowboys for the ultimate lulz
ReplyDeleteI don't watch much college football, but Alabama is a favorite right? I think it does make sense, as they are playing at home, plus they are like the Spurs, they are ALWAYS dangerous in high profile games, while Mississippi State might get stage fright.
ReplyDeleteSadly, I'm sure Dunn feels that way and it makes me sick.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, how can ROH still keep Jay Briscoe in there, that guy is lunatic. Last year it wasn't the first time he did homophobic tweets.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea how the hell he's a two time World Champion.
ReplyDeleteI have "loved to hate" peyton manning for his entire pro career, so I hope he comes up short again this year. But every time he wins, i'm like "damn that guy's good".
ReplyDeleteFuck, where's Kyle's main event push?
ReplyDeleteWCW was better up until around September. Probably take WWF in the Fall.
ReplyDeleteHot body.
ReplyDeleteHe's learned to roll with the crowd.
ReplyDeleteI wish she stuck with the black hair. Wowzers.
ReplyDeleteHe's over as hell and is just about the only draw the company has left.
ReplyDeleteStill, fuck that bigot shitbag.
Did something just happen?
ReplyDeleteSame, don't hate her with red either but she's better with the raven color. Happy she never went blonde.
ReplyDeleteBriscoe should realize that being the face of the company is about responsabilty and also learn that are young people that are gay and enjoy wrestling, if they read this they will probably feel wrong about their sexuality.
ReplyDeleteJust exposing my hatred for Jay Briscoe.
ReplyDeleteHe acts the way he does and is World Champion. Why would he change his ways? Briscoes could've been in WWE or TNA or even NJPW but instead they are stuck in ROH because of their lack of professionalism and common sense.
ReplyDeleteAt least Styles probably keeps these things to himself. It's amazing how people defend their hate speech by saying "it's only my opinion".
ReplyDeleteA few hours. Del Rio tells a similar story of finding out 2 hours before the show.
ReplyDeleteI hope both his kids end up being gay.
ReplyDeleteThe ultimate irony.
ReplyDeleteHe's in the main event of the ROH PPV tonight.
ReplyDeleteBut will he put the blame on the "White Music"?
ReplyDeleteOn paper, this looks like it'll be the best NXT PPV so far.
ReplyDeleteProbably all dem damn queers on dem that there TV shows.
ReplyDeleteDo they have 25 wrestlers to rank?
ReplyDeleteWhat's so good about the main event is that Neville is not a full blown heel, rather a opportunistic guy.
ReplyDeleteI know they won't due to the network, but I would love for them to release either the NXT specials, or a best of NXT DVD one day with all of these great matches they have.
ReplyDelete"Eva is currently out of action with an undisclosed minor injury."
ReplyDelete.........
...from doing WHAT? She never wrestles any more.
Me too, that way I can see them.
ReplyDeleteI skimmed through it, it includes divas and tag teams also. Kane is #25, with a comment that he's in danger of falling off completely! OH NOES!!
ReplyDeleteThis is where I'd normally make a joke about plowing her, but I have no idea what she even looks like.
ReplyDeleteThat was a perfect moment though. Sami just lost the title match because of a quick roll up, and afterwords while still in shock, Neville crawls up to him to pretty give him a semi heelish pat on the back/" You did good" vibe.
ReplyDeleteSami wins at Takeover, Neville gets a rematch and loses. After the rematch Kevin Steen appears and attacks Zayn.
ReplyDeleteIt's gonna be interesting, since Zayn treats Generico like he was a completely different person.
ReplyDeleteSteen grabs the mic after the attack and says, "guess who's here now?"
ReplyDeleteFUCK YEAH, K7! Swing, batterbatterbatterbatterbatter, swing!
ReplyDeletehttp://www.rantsports.com/clubhouse/files/2014/03/Eva-Marie-FB12.jpg
ReplyDelete:Steen goes into the ring with Zayn:
ReplyDelete"Hey buddy, long time no see..."
:Drops mic, pile drives Zayn to the mat:
Gets shitcanned for doing a piledriver.
ReplyDeleteShe's the one with the clown hair
ReplyDeleteTonsillitis
ReplyDeleteShe looks like a fembot.
ReplyDeleteBill Cosby's newest special is called Far From Finished, but considering he's being dropped from appearances left and right, I think that title was tempting fate
ReplyDeleteHHH let's him do it, he seems to be his new gym partner.
ReplyDeleteStill hoping network puts ovw, fcw and older NXT stuff up.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what's less appealing: her Hogan tan, Ronald McDonald hair, or her apparent lack of talent in anything (yet somehow is on the main roster even though there's a bunch of talented ladies in NXT who can wipe the floor with her)
ReplyDeleteAll three.
ReplyDeleteOVW would be great. I always heard great things about Cornette and Heyman's booking down there.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm good.
ReplyDeleteSince returning from injury, NXT star Solomon Crowe has been doing a gimmick where he taps his head with the microphone to encourage fans to clap for him.
ReplyDeleteWho invited Vince McMahon in a NXT meeting?
Hannibal Buress has finished him.
ReplyDeleteLetting him do his gimmick of the indies, make him and Steen a tag.
ReplyDeleteBest slate of tunes in a few days. I voted for Cube, Pearl Jam, PE, Biggie and K7.
ReplyDeleteBill took away something that brought you, me, and Devin together :(
ReplyDelete01 was an absolutely stacked roster.
ReplyDeleteI still can't believe that Road Dogg is the head writer of WWE. It's time to start questioning HHH's decisions.
ReplyDeleteWe'll always have those threads.
ReplyDeleteHe is?
ReplyDeleteI thought he was just a road agent?
Really?
ReplyDeleteI got the $231 tickets. Section 111 row 8. Should be a good view if the seating chart didn't lie to me.
ReplyDelete*road dogg agent
ReplyDeleteThe two main road agents are Noble and Mercury, both replaced Steamboat and Arn Anderson. :Shrug:
ReplyDeleteI don't think it'll be too cold in Santa Clara at the end of March
ReplyDeleteCM Punk is going to be on Talking Dead this Sunday. When he was on the show last season they referred to him by his name Phil Brooks. This time they're referring to him as CM Punk. A quick check of the Talking Dead site confirms this. Interesting...
ReplyDeleteCena was around there wasn't?
ReplyDeleteSo I saw something about Jose Canseco and how his reattached finger just fell off
ReplyDeleteCM Punk's whole situation is weird.
ReplyDeleteHe's coming back....wahahahahaha.
ReplyDeleteI thought he was just gonna shoot all over the place about the WWE, instead he's looking for other things to do and barely mentions WWE.
ReplyDeleteOther than random appearances and going to Blackhawk games, what does he do?
ReplyDeleteI think he was still in OVW.
ReplyDeleteHe has a real estate business I think, and is now writing for Marvel.
ReplyDeleteAJ Lee
ReplyDeleteYOU DID STEROIDS! *clapclapclapclapclap*
ReplyDeleteIs he going to shoot on Marvel?
ReplyDeleteNot exactly his gimmick really. Just something he's been doing during his promos. Had a great match last night. Doesn't look like the injury slowed him down much!
ReplyDelete>AJ Brooks
ReplyDeletehttp://aj-brooks.com/
Who'd he work with?
ReplyDeleteIt's rather chilly there year round.
ReplyDeleteThat'll be next year, when she's ready to challenge for the title.
ReplyDeleteNope, June 02 was his debut.
ReplyDelete*botch
ReplyDeleteShut up, Meekin.
ReplyDeleteThat doesn't sound right.
ReplyDeleteOr he won't.......depending on the source.
ReplyDeletehttp://botchedspot.com/comic/verily-pipebomb/
ReplyDeleteOh, I didn't know....
ReplyDeleteThe Briscoe-Cole match gonna take place at Facebook?
ReplyDeleteThe Cos was on Colbert not too long ago.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a guy walk the line of "still got it" and "completely out of it" better than him.
There IS a bit of a difference in leaving to go to another promotion and going into retirement due to injury. Look at Trish Stratus, she retired as Women's Champ, too.
ReplyDeleteI was living in Cincinnati while Heyman was booking OVW and it was incredible. He totally "got" CM Punk and booked him perfectly. Punk's feud with the Spirit Squad was actually really good and I kinda remember one with Brent Albright that was really good.
ReplyDeleteMy girlfriend and I just dropped $1,090 on tickets to Guadalajara, Mexico in March for a wedding. Fly in on Friday night, wedding on Saturday, driving to the beach for a week on Sunday.
ReplyDeleteNo WrestleMania for me this year.
Our office printers are all named after Simpsons characters; the printer in my bullpen area is Duffman, so anytime someone asks me if I sent such-and-such to Duffman, I of course respond OHHHH YEEEAAHH
ReplyDeleteWorking the weekend sucks, hopefully the catering is good today. Last week was Jimmy John's (bleh) and deep dish pizza (better).
Whiplash from flipping her hair... surprised Nash never went down with that one.
ReplyDeleteI saw him live back in like 2000 and he was great. He was walking that line back then, too, but the stuff he was saying was so ridiculous it was impossible not to laugh. I had no idea if he was trying to be funny or going senile, but it was gold either way.
ReplyDeleteHave to agree, although both had a bunch of great stuff going on in 1992. But WCW had Liger-Pillman, the War Games match, the start of the Sting-Vader feud, the first Black World Heavyweight champ, Sting-Cactus Jack and just a bunch of really fun stuff. Totally redeemed them from 1991.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but each sandwich from JJ's was delivered via F5
ReplyDeleteShe's unforgiven too.
ReplyDelete
