Wrestling Thread 6: It's Poppy • Page 1069

Heyman yelling at Kayla for thinking she has sources and then calling out her "sapiosexual lust" for him was amazing

 

It’s not a good reason, but it’s because Hogans thing was a lot more public than any of Flair’s. Tbh I didn’t know the extent Flairs involvement in the plane ride until last night. I don’t think the average wrestling fan has any idea of any of it

 

Smackdown’s entrance set is pretty epic I gotta say

 

Damn, Knox County has their very own keyblade

 

hotshotting a 6 man tag for ratings

 

Why does Becky look like she’s cosplaying Edge, Christian, and Lita at the same time

 

Yep, WWE papered over the Plane Ride From Hell quickly, while Hogan's thing became the focus of the Deadspin lawsuit and lingered for YEARS.

It is truly amazing how long Ric has been a perv, especially in the #MeToo era, and yet he's continued on.

 

roman's simultaneously feuding with big e, balor, and lesnar

just completely nonsenical

 

They completely botched Becky’s return

 

ugh, Jericho on commentary

 

given that hair I bet Penta is actually a total babe under that mask

 

Great booking and finish

 

He's lost his mask in like, every super bloody match he's done (lucha underground, railroad spikes with Sami Callihan)

 

lol rampage is like a million tag matches next week

 

"The only reason I took this match is because I like celebrating with my god up high and my wife down low"

Miro is working basically the best gimmick I've ever seen. He looks like a badass, his promos are short and sweet, and everything just works

 

Lights Out. LET'S FUCKING GO.

 

Yeah, that match is gonna rock

 

Yeah, give me Sammy v Miro

 

Headline of the year.

 

the end of that match was a fucking mess lol

 

Idk what happened but on social media, it doesn’t seem like becky is a big fan of kanes lol

 

The AEW logo is back on the canvas. That’s the important take away from Rampage this week, IMO.

Sorry Sammy/Miro feud or that damn good tag title match, the canvas was the best part.

 

I hope Miro is Hangman’s first title feud eventually.

 

AEW rly botched Miro's debut, but ever since the redeemer gimmick i totally fell back in love with Rusev/Miro. Such an entertaining guy

 

That Episode of the plane ride from hell is unsettling. For years we’ve only ever heard the Wwe’s modulated version being “boys will be boys” but to hear the accounts of the flight attendant shows that there’s so much swept under the rug in the industry. I feel so sorry for her and anyone else hurt in the same regard.

The fact that Vince was on the plane and didn’t de-escalate the insanity is pretty telling. So much direct and indirect enabling going on there. I kind of hope Vince gets taken down on top of all individuals who’ve acted in similar or worse ways.
