I think it's obvious Cesaro is the strongest Pound for Pound guy wrestling has had in a long time, if not just ever.

WWE Live is coming to Knoxville this Sunday. The main event that's being advertised is Ambrose vs Rollins in a Knoxville Street Fight for the WHC title. Another match advertised is Reigns vs Wyatt. The other superstars advertised is Cesaro, Kane, Miz, and more.

I've bought my tickets, and I'm looking forward to attending my first house show.

how are you supposed to go into a house show where a title is "on the line" and believe that anything could actually happen

Correct me if I'm wrong, but since house shows don't affect the actual storylines on Raw, couldn't they do anything with regards to the title?

They can't really now of days because of the wrestling dirt sheet sites and social media. Used to they could exchange a title at house show and never have to acknowledged it on t.v. It would just be a special treat for that town. If they did that now the whole world would know about it. So you should expect Rollins to win in some cheap fashion, but for Ambrose to do something after the match to make the fans go home happy.

The good thing about this is though that we get matches we otherwise might not normally. IIRC, Orton Curb Stomped Rollins at one a while back, and we had Cena, Ambrose, and Reigns vs Rollins, Wyatt, and some third person that wasn't Kane a while ago also.

I've been ignoring wrestling for a bit now but I'm watching RAW to see the Cena-Cesaro match. Did they say anything or do anything with Rusev and Russia? Or is he just back to sporting the Bulgarian flag and pretending like the Russia angle never existed?

Back to the Bulgarian flag.

The Cena-Cesaro match was as good as y'all advertised it to be. Cesaro has unreal strength. Some of those suplexes were insane based off the angle he picked Cena up from.

Is Trips setting Rollins up for failure to begin their feud? Is there a chance Rollins actually loses?

Sheamus-Reigns was better than i expected.

Amazing what happens when they let professional wrestlers wrestle for 30 minutes rather than go exhibit JV acting skills for 20 and then wrestle 10.

come on GA. Actual wrestling doesn't sell! Just because the Chicago fans were going absolutely bonkers doesn't mean that's a feeling across the world. Wrestling is about spewing the same promos over and over.

BTW, I'll draw heat with this (but I do that quite often anyway): I'm pretty much over Bray Wyatt.

I'm getting close to that point. The guy is good in the ring and especially on the mic, but he has been booked horribly. I hate that he calls himself the new face of fear when he didn't even beat the Undertaker. He isn't being booked as a serious threat to anyone.

I don't blame you. Wyatt has effectively been doing the same angle for two years now. He's effectively where they park main event talent when they aren't pushing them for a title.

The character was cool, but there's only so much you can do with it. Even had we won more feuds, there's only so much to do with it.
