Wrestling - Offical Thread

yeah, I watched some of his stuff on youtube when he had a feud with Regal, seems cool as fuck and different.

need some wrestlers who are different and have personality, hopefully wwe won't water him down n make him shit.

20th anniversary of RAW tonight. the Rock in concert!



Should be some Stone Cold, Undertaker, HBK etc. appearances too.

Hope C M Punk kicks the cunt out of all of them.

Punk owns everyone since he turned heel. Watched the best in the world documentary the other day, really good.

Royal Rumble on Sunday

Can't wait for the Rumble. Even though it's not the main attraction of the year, it's probably my favourite event.

My torrents of every single wrestlemania and rumble have finished downloading. Gonna get nostalgic.

LINK!

got them off isohunt

just put royal rumble or wrestlemania in theres torrents with the lot in.

Watched Wrestlemania I last week, so powerful. Also been watching a bunch of wrestling documentaries, got the bug back again right now.

Not sure how the Rumble is going to go. There's probably a choice of 3 main events for Wrestlemania

The Rock (Champion) v Cena

The Rock (Champion) v Cena V Punk

Punk (Champion) v Undertaker (streak v streak)


Reckon Punk will beat The Rock. Rock will win the title at elimation chamber.

Not sure of that, Jimbo. I think if The Rock is going to win the title, it will be at a big event. Elimination Chamber isn't on the same level as the Rumble in terms of prestige.

I reckon at WrestleMania, it's going to be Rocky vs Cena for the title. Rocky beats Punk, Cena wins the Rumble, so, natrually, Cena opts to go after Rocky. That gives them around 2 months to build the match-up.

If they have Rocky win the title at Elimination Chamber, they've got a month to hype the match up. It's not the same as last year; Rock/Cena was dubbed "Once In A Lifetime" and they could've got away with little build-up. This year, we've already seen Rocky go head-to-head with Cena so it's not as special; it needs another layer to get people excited.

That's my view on it anyway.

My big hope for this year is for Steamboat to face Wade Barrett(sp?) for the Intercontinental Title. His match against Jericho a few years back was incredible. They've teased it in recent weeks but not sure how Steamboat is, physically.

I'm thinking The Miz beats Cessaro, too. His stuff with Ric Flair at the 20th anniversary show was brilliant and it looks like Flair has passed the figure four leglock onto Miz as his finisher which will work for him much better than his current finisher.

The last rumours I read were that their plans for Mania are:

I'd be interested in 'Taker vs Punk. Storyline wise, it could make sense. After losing the title to Rocky, there is no credibility to his "Best In The World" claim. What better way to prove his case than ending the streak?

Now, I'm of the opinion that the streak should never end, but, if they had Punk end it (maybe with help from The Shield) it would send peoples hatred for him into orbit. He'd become one of the biggest heels ever to have lived.

Don't think I could take 'Super' Cena winning the title at Wrestlemania and another boring title run where he beats everybody cleanly. His character is so stale. The thought has crossed my mind that he wins the title at Mania and turns heel at the same time. Won't happen like.

Cena turning heel would be huge but before they can consider that they need a babyface whose on his level in terms of selling merch. I don't think anyone comes close yet.

Not so much an insight or prediction, but with Punk being on this run as champion recently i wish the WWE would have taken the opportunity to change that abomination of a WWE title belt.
