The Wrestling Thread: WWE WrestleMania 31 [NSFW]

[KK]

As Lawler actually brought it up as an unknown last night, I'm hoping they address tonight why Vince McMahon agreed to the stipulations that he did.

Am I the only one that likes Swagger's new music?

Patriot vs Foreigner angle, though...how original. 2013.

[Prototype]

Love his music, and love the right-wing tea party they've got going on with Dutch Mantell.

I dig it,much better than his last theme anyway!Reminds me a bit of Goldbergs...even if it sounds nothing like it!

With the patriot as the heel? That hasn't been done much.

Bret Hart
More I would remember if I wasn't half cut

JBL vs Eddie in 2004.

And I realise you said "hasn't been done much", but it still seems fairly generic to me, however you spin it.

However recycled it is, it's still fresher than Rock Cena II. Let's at least give them a chance...

Would enjoy seeing Jack and Dutch patrolling the Mexican border.

I enjoyed the main event - say what you want about Rock's fitness, he still knows his way around a spot.

I don't recall a time when a "bloody foreigners" gimmick has ever gone down particularly well. The crowd response has been rather apathetic, but then that might just be Jack Swagger in general rather than the gimmick. Swagger has been a joke for so long it's going to take a while for anyone to take him seriously.

Since when was NXT's theme tune Welcome Home by Coheed and Cambria?

[IronMaiden]

What I want to know is does rock have something wrong with his lungs? I clearly remember towards te end of his last full time stint nearly ten yrs ago he would pant like crazy and wheeze alot throughout his matches. He know appears to still do the same and I think it's worse now. He looks and sounds like a 40 a day smoker who works out like crazy.

He's 10 years older, and is obviously just bulking up for his movie parts recently. He's in shape, just not in the right shape to go a long match without a bit of a struggle.

A long match? There were rest holds FROM THE START OF THE MATCH. He's not in any shape to do anything even remotely intense when it comes to cardiovascular activity. It's truly laughable. I don't know how you guys who watch wrestling all the time can even try to defend it. He's got no business being in the ring right now.

Re: Red dog. The constant need for rest holds isn't because The Rock is 'selling' being gassed, it's because he's actually completely gassed.

Match was still good.

Since when was NXT's theme tune Welcome Home by Coheed and Cambria?

Since the move to Florida.

[Corazon de Leon]

Who's this English bird? I totally would.

Dusty Rhodes

I've actually now finished watching elimination chamber now. After reading all the comments about the main event I was expecting something awful but it was actually pretty good. It wasn't a fast moving, electrifying match but it was still decent.

On the reason vince allowed to give punk he stipulation, do u think they will actually bother revealing it or just leave it as just one of those things they never explain?

[KK]

Have a feeling this crowd are going to be hard work tonight...

[Psychic]

Screwy finish next week and both guys facing Rock in a triple threat at Mania please.

[Psychic]

Go away Miz.

WWE humour. AJ Lee publicly states she's a bit of a prude in real life, therefore she's the resident whore on television.

[PES Fan]

Sounds like a very dull Raw. Was hoping Undertaker or Lesnar would make an appearance. But unlikely that will happen.
