To be totally honest, it's way better than I would've ever guessed, and at this point I'm the one who suggests watching.

To all of you who wanna blow up my spot: you watch pro wrestling. Don't you know it's fake?

 

*Luke Gallows voice* NERD

It's ok though, when the Bachelor is at its best, it's WWE-level entertainment

 

I just don't know if it would get the pop that they would want from that spot, but maybe I'm out of touch. It is more of a Mania atmosphere this year I guess, so there may be enough diehards there.

 

My downstairs neighbors would hate me if Okada came out.

 

I'm still holding out hope for Michaels or Angle. We might even see 1 or both of the Hardys. A lot of people are always "in talks" with WWE but nothing ever happens. As far as internal talent, I think Joe would be a guarantee in the Rumble.

 

Hardys are a no go. They are under contract until March. Angle would be an awesome surprise. He is making a boat load on appearances though. WCPW paid A LOT for him.

Lol. Motorhead's The Game just came on the radio.

 

Ah damn. Then again, I don't think WWE would let Matt do his broken character. Would be hilarious if once he got released and came to WWE, he turned out to be Sister Abigail haha. I think Angle would be great on either a Jericho or Cena schedule. My only concern, like you said, is that he's making a killing on these independent appearances. Why would he go bust his ass 4 nights a week for WWE where he can probably get the same amount for one indie appearance?

 

That would cause a Smarknado, where they cant decide if they are ecstatic by the thought of Bray and Broken Matt as a team, or furious that Sister Abigail was made human

 

Those Wrestlezone comments would be incredibly interesting though haha. I think the one thing that would shut down that comment section would be Cena turning heel. They'd be excited to see it happen but knowing the WWE, it'll be very anti-climatic. I can see his heel turn be like Austin's instead of Hogan's or even Rollins on a smaller scale.

 

Finn returns early to win the Rumble. Easiest call ever. That late "update" we got about his recovery being delayed was a complete work.

 

also this is great

 

colt cabana and daivari are going to be at wrestlepalooza here next month, definitely gotta go. haha

 

Styles/Ellsworth for the title and Miz vs Apollo Crews for the IC title are opening the show tonight. Smackdown also has Luke Harper vs. Dean Ambrose. Smackdown will be good tonight

 

Styles v. Ellsworth is totally gonna get kayfabe postponed but it'll be a good segment I'm sure

 

Holy shit, I love Russo.

 

Support me, I need the cash lol

 

Crews? Please have that end in Corbin demanding a title opportunity. Or have him asking how people like Harper and Crews have somehow done more to deserve their title shots than he has.

 

yeah, i imagine crews is a placeholder for someone else in the build to the rumble. either way the match should be good

 

haha, Ellsworth doing the title belt signal is great.

His descent to delusional is gonna be amazing if he gets a Rumble elimination

 

can't believe they're putting this on smackdown. this should be at least on ppv, hell this is wrestlemania main event caliber!

 

Agreed. Just if you're gonna say "championships are earned" either put your money where your mouth is or have your characters that are getting slighted call GM out on their bullshit

 

Come on, do a clash through the announce table!

 

RIP Ellsworth

 

welp this was the murder of james ellsworth that weve been waiting for

 

already forgot Dolph was the #1 contender
