The Wrestling Thread: WWE WrestleMania 31 [NSFW]

[IronMaiden]

Never seen this online in it's entirety. Taker/Mankind hell in a cell.

Some general thoughts about these review things...

What makes people here listen to them? I can't understand the growing number of links in this thread for the net type shows. I can't imagine these people are saying anything unique, that we aren't all thinking.

It'd be interesting to know too how many people listen to them in this thread - I imagine a lot.

Review-a-Wai is generally very funny, as well as a good way for me to experience wrestling from WCW (Which I never watched) and old 80s/90s stuff I was too young for. F4W is good for news in it's updates, and Bryan and Vinny is just plain hilarious- I listen more for the humour than any wrestling content.

Maybe if you listen to one you'll find out.

For me it's all about the humour, but they're also very informative.

I enjoy the podcasts from wai and JP more than the shows. I often miss the shows themselves tbh

Michaels was amazing heading in to this feud though - echos of 1997.

The Bret Hart fake-out in Montreal is probably my favourite ever heel promo

If anyone wants to watch it




This is my personal favourite

Thinking about it, just download this and listen to it:

Bring on the porn.

Holy Cameltoe, Batman.

Referee hiding an erection.

[Drumstick]

I think it's more the light on the material, but yeah, it's not kind to them.

[Skippy]

Major man-face going on with the one on the right.

[A J Styles]

The Bella's.

[KK]

I'm trying to figure out what's more likely: The Bellas' having sex with each other, or Hulk Hogan having dodgy relations with Brooke, that may or may not also include Brutus Beefcake.

I presume The Miz has also vanished off the face of the earth. Guy doesn't even warrant TV time any more.

[Cosmo]

Miz vs Santino will be the dark match for Extreme Rules. US title meaning less and less.

Going back to the podcasts question, I listen to Bryan and Vinny because I think they're great guys to listen to (apart from when granny's on), and I listen to Observer Radio for news and Meltzer taking an age to answer stuff.

Paddy Power offering markets on matches at Extreme Rules.

[Dark Ritual]

Big Show has worse odds than Cody Rhodes? Seems...odd.

It always amazes me how they allow betting on Wrestling

Wish I had put money on Taker at Mania though
