The WRASSLIN’ Thread

[JCHateSteve]

I read where this happened as I turned it off. I don't know what to think about this,but I didn't see a WWE return so it might not be too bad if Jeff doesn't go nuts on the high spots. Probably Mooses next opponent at Slammiversary.

Just a legend doing a one off run at the title. I don't think Anthem is ready to sell quite yet. But it may well get there with them cost cutting. WWE would probably pay quite a bit to get TNAs back tape and the privilege of cherry picking the roster. They did the same to ECW.

I don’t think Tony Khan is the best booker by any means but HHH is just bad. He was great at booking NxT but this main roster booking is nowhere near the level. He’s slightly better than Vince at this point lol very disappointing

I think Tony needs to loosen the reigns on booking,and allow someone or others to take the booking duties,but I don't think he wants to. It might be stubbornness owning the company and all. I enjoy the product that AEW puts out,but some booking choices are real head scratchers.

HHH is a mixed bag. He's one of those bookers that books like it's the 70s and 80s where long title reigns were the norm. For people like Gunther and Rhea Ripley it works,but it dragged on IMO for Reigns even with the big pay off.

Clash at the Castle was interesting from what I watched. I didn't see AJ and Cody, but heard good things about the match. Cool to see Alba and Isla get the feel good title win in their homeland,but I'm sure Jade and Bianca win it back on Smackdown. CM Punk screws Mcintyre out of the World Championship. If Punk stays healthy, they could have a good match.

Agreed with Tony Khan. He’s doing it all himself, needs to get some help. Dynamite is usually good but collision has turned into mostly a joke imo. Also need more feuds spread throughout the card imo

HHH I don’t know. I don’t get booking an I Quit match, it pretty much eliminated any small chance Styles could get a W. Cody’s whole story was about winning the world championship. He doesn’t need a long reign imo. Jade just isn’t as big of a star as she should be. Don’t give two rat asses about CM Punk and don’t really understand those who do at this point.

I don’t know. Just ain’t feeling 90% of his booking sadly

Just now getting to Rampage. Been a long day and I didn't get it last night.

Every time Schiavone and Excalibur are on the call together, Excalibur throws out a "thanks Tony". It's always in response to something stupid, and it always makes me feel heard in my dislike for Tony's nonsense.

Good match from Toni Storm. But I must admit I hope Mariah turns on her. I have no desire for the timeless one to go anywhere. But she needs a fresh feud. That one could be a candidate for a long term grudge.

I continue to be impressed with Harley. Everything about that girls persona screams psycho. AEW needs to give her a push as a heel. I think she is ready for a bigger spotlight.

I hope Cage of Agony likes the "Ham and Egger Special". Because that's all they ever seem to get fed.

I feel like Rampage got a a whole bunch of matches into an hour tonight. But The first match and the main event are the only ones that didn't feel like they belonged on "Dark". I don't mean to throw shade at Shota and Rocky. That was a good match. But everything else was a squash. All that said Pac and Lethal was pretty excellent.

Jade Cargill is green as goose crap. She botched a few things in her match, not counting when they hid her most of the match. She has the intangibles to be successful, but she needs to sit under a learning tree for a while.

 

[chavisut]

More Collisions like tonight please.

Hi Guys!

 

[JCHateSteve]

Just finished Collision and talk about stepping it up.

Say what you want about the BCC. You are going to get a great macth out of any combination of them. The top rope Manhattan drop was nice.

You knew Christian would bring it for Fathers Day.

Dante and Lee have come a long way.

The end of the main event is very interesting. Great way to cap off the best Collision in months. Not a bad match or segment on the card.

Gotta give Drew credit he takes a hit for company 2 times in his homeland.

This Bloodline Cody Rhodes storyline is getting older by the moment.

Would really love to see Brock come back and him and Punk and the Advocate reunite.

Had not given a thought to Brock coming back to save Heyman. Don’t want to see Brock vs. Roman again, but Brock vs this new Bloodline could be interesting.

I like Cody, buy they're really going to have to build up some heels for him to face. It's looking like Solo Sikoa at MITB,and the way Orton looked at the belt yesterday, having him turn heel at SummerSlam and face Cody.

It depends on if they're actually considering him keeping the belt until WrestleMania 41 which I hope not. Survivor Series would be a good time to drop it. Who knows? He's the new Cena of this generation being over with kids.

Amen.

Ihave been saying this for months. She is gold Jerry! She is a better "The Bunny."

All that said Pac and Lethal was pretty excellent.

It was. I would like more of it.

I think Cody will holding onto the belt for a while. I don't even see him losing it a next year's WM.

Wyatt 5 debuted at the end of RAW. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

 

[Pennheel]

So Nikki Cross looks like Sister Abigail and Erik Rowan is a massive rabbit with a sledgehammer. Of course Howdy is Bo Dallas. I don't know about Gacy and Lumis. Alexa Bliss would be a good addition as they're supposed to be the Wyatt 6.

A little zany and out there with taking out everyone in the back,but that's typical with the Bray Wyatt stuff. Yeah,I'm interested in where they go with it.

That kind of storytelling is something AEW will never have.

You'd think Alexa would be involved. Assuming she ever returns.

I’m intrigued. I’ll definitely check out their segments.
