Wrestling - Offical Thread

not watched any wrestling for years but just seen this clip from the ending of raw and it got me back in the mood to watch it i must admit. daniel bryan seems ridiculousy over...

Anyone watch the Rumble? The below is currently the 2nd most read article on the BBC news website

www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/25911039

Flicked through it this morning, Pittsburg certainly wasn't impressed. "We want diva's" / "we want refunds" chants throughout the Cena / Orton match and constant booing as soon as Mysterio came out as number 30 in the Rumble. Someone on UKFF summed it up perfectly when they said Batista looked like a tired out of shape penis.

On a positive i can't get enough of the Wyatt family and big Roman looks better and better as each week goes by. Oh and Lesner was fantastic as well.

holy shit.

Sting is about to join the WWE.

How do you feel about this Ax? Do you think they will use him properly or just waste him like they did Goldberg?

I'm quite excited to see how they use him. Obviously everyone wants to see him fight the undertaker. I'm hearing this won't be happening any time soon. With Sting on board They'll have an excellent opportunity to make millions off all things WCW. As the face of WCW he'd act as a great vehicle to carry that forward.

I'm hearing he's going to join as a General Manager. While sting is great on the mic, he's even greater when he's not saying anything, I'd love to see the crow era sting in WWE, even if its just for 5 minutes.

I'm also hearing they'll be focusing on " A man called Sting " rather than " The Icon Sting ".

Best match in ages, Shield V Wyatts at Elimination Chamber



Looks like the Mania card is taking shape:
Taker V Lesnar
Cena V Wyatt
Bryan V HHH
Orton V Batista in the least anticipated title match of all time. It's been a total disaster since the Rumble.

They have to turn Batista; the fans are crapping all over him. I can see him turning heel then either:

- Him having to put his title shot on the line and losing to Punk or Bryan making it Punk or Bryan vs Orton. Of course, this is assuming Punk comes back before 'Mania. RAW is in Chicago next week so if it's gonna happen, then would be the best time for him to return. I hear he is gonna be there to talk with Vince so who knows.

- Having a Punk or Bryan inserted into the match. If Punk was to comeback, you could have Vince come back (in FACE mode) and announce that it will be Punk vs Bryan with the winner being added to the match. Triple H could cost Bryan the match which would serve to setup Byran vs HHH.

But much more importantly, HULKAMANIA IS BACK, BROTHER. And he's here to talk about how great it is that the WWE Universe has been created to create the WWE Network and that's awesome for the WWE Universe Network WWE network universe awesome WWE....brother!


He's old.

I could see HHH agreeing to a match on the condition that if Bryan loses he doesn't get a title shot again, if he wins he gets added to Orton V Batista. Part of me hopes they carry on as planned out of pure stubborness just to see how much of a train wreck it will be!



Poor Hogan Maybe he wasn't the right gay guy for the job

Hogan is still king brother.

Wyatt's theme tune is brilliant

Bray is the best thing in WWE right now. His promo's are already legendary.

Mr T's Hall of Fame acceptance speech as it happened:

"Mr. T starts out his speech by praying to God on-stage. His speech is very God-focused, as he praises his mother for raising 12 children surrounded by crime and poverty. He talks about his mom for ten minutes.

He starts listing the days he loves his mother – Christmas Day, Groundhog's Day, etc. – and the crowd starts giving him the "WHAT!?" treatment. Steve Austin is losing his mind laughing so hard.

The last update to this article was 10 minutes ago. He is still talking about his mother. They actually had Kane come out, music and all, to give him the hook. What!?"

wtf

!!!! SPOILERZZZ !!!!







Sting confirms he has signed for the WWE. "I guess 31 is my favorite number"

With undertaking losing (stupidly) against a part timer, next years WM could be undertakers last ever match with the company, it makes sense for him to wrestle sting, it now looks like Sting vs Undertaker is 99% a done deal.

It's ironic that 'Taker should lose The Streak to a part-timer considering he is a part-timer himself.

I like Brock beating the streak.  Watching this morning, I was actually stunned, and didn't like the idea but I've had time to digest what happened and it's a bold and exciting move.  Was this part of some deal that will see Lesnar work a busier schedule? I hope so, and I hope it leads to an epic Bryan vs Lesnar feud.

About Sting, him facing 'Taker at WM31 without The Streak being in tact at least means we won't know for sure that Sting will take the loss. 

Not really the same is it tucker? Taker's mythical status is full time and all time.

Theres no indication that Lesnar will work a busier schedule, does anyone actually like brock lesnar? both as a personality and in ring?

I don't.
