....greaaaaaat, Eva's back.

 

Man, that may have been worse than last year.

 

I will go with the definitive that was worse than last year.

 

Raw took a nosedive after that Lesnar segment, yeesh. Felt for all the guys in the 6-man match, holy shit if I were any of those dudes I would have been livid at the length and spot of that match.

 

Welp, Bryan thing completely wrecked me as expected.

 

Someone on FB asked why The Undertaker still wrestles. One response he got was that Wrestlemania was his Groundhog Day.

 

Haha don't know why I didn't think WWE and sports, verses WWE under the "entertainment" category. Regardless, cool to see some fans here!

 

Was she on RAW in the past, or just NXT?

 

Anyone else watch any indies? I've been in love with Lucha Underground for the last year or so and just got into Ring of Honor. Went to my first ROH show a few weeks ago and it was unreal. So damn good.

 

She was on the main roster/Raw for a couple years (involved in mostly Total Divas related storylines) before they sent her back down to NXT to get more practice because she was a godawful wrestler.

I'm also a huge fan of LU (best wrestling show out there), and I also try and keep up with NJPW and watch most of the major shows. I've watched ROH on occasion but it's never been something I followed very closely.

 

Did you know Pentagon and Fenix are brothers in real life? I found out today and just cannot get over it. Haha.

 

Gotcha. I quit watching for a bit, and got back into it again last fall or so. Just recently started watching Total Divas, and noticed her talking about how the fans didn't like her very well. Was kind of hoping Nikki Bella would have been back for that huge tag-team before Wrestlemania.

 

I had no idea, that's kind of mind blowing, hah.

 

wademania gonna run wild on dallas, brother

 

my nephew asked me the other day why people kept calling shane mcmahon shane o'mac and I could not give him an answer that he would accept.

 

I don't even know why he's called Shane O' Mac

 

Holy shit that ref, fucking up everything

 

Of course the Kofi botch is in there, haha.

 

Nikki Bella may never wrestle again. Doctors told her even a single bump could put her out for good.

 

Shaneo is a nickname for Shane sometimes (I know someone whose family calls him that) so I'm guessing they used Shaneo as a term of endearment at some point in his life and it's actually Shaneo Mac, but it's been stylized as Shane O'Mac over the years because that just looks cooler or whatever, haha.

 

That's such a shame. She clearly LOVES the industry and was constantly improving. I was initially not a huge fan but she's really put in a lot of work and has won me over as a wrestler. I can only imagine what kind of fun program she could have had against Sasha or Bayley.

 

Okay, so the Raw after WM is going to be amazing/sad/great.

Some confirmed, some speculation.

WOMEN'S TITLE TO BE INTRODUCED
Brie's retirement

Enzo and Cass (?)
Balor Club (?)
Shane's first night as supreme ruler (?)

 

I've seen a fair bit of speculation about a Bayley call up as well, though I guess that makes the Divas (OR, FINALLY, THE WOMEN'S!) division a little crowded with the recent call ups/reintroductions of Eva and Emma, Lana starting to wrestle plus, presumably, Carmella's debut.

Either way, I'm gonna be hyped as hell when the Balor Club comes storming into raw.

 

It's a tough call with Bayley. That Women's Division is going to flounder without her. Sure, there is a lot of talent there, but none of those girls are going to cut great promos + wrestle well. Alexa proved the other night that it takes a talented opponent to put her over. Dana Brooke is not going to have much without Emma. There is essential not a single face left over there. Asuka is a weird beast. We'll see how she goes over on Friday.

I'm just really worried for the NXT product outside of Joe, AA, Corbin, and a few of the indie guys,
