The Wrestling Thread: WWE WrestleMania 31 [NSFW]

Me and Mocky are doomed. I'm totally lost with wrestling at the moment.

I don't think ROTS or myself are following it either.

Chavo is a very valuable addition to any wrestling company, but I don't know how I'd use him on TV. He's great for working with rookies on house shows, like Finlay, but I don't know if he'd be in any sort of title picture.

Perhaps in a tag team with someone?

Also: Smackdown vs Raw 2011 is rather good. The team of Matt Hardy and Mark Henry are so far unstoppable

OHHHH YEEEEEAH! WHOOOO!

Purists: You have 13 hours to PM me your predictions.

I always thought he would be great in a management type role - he could be a great mouthpiece for someone.

I can't believe that in the wake of ripping into the Angelina Love/Winter in the mirror segment on Impact that no-one mentioned the ALL TIME STUPID segment with the Motor City Machine Guns, Velvet Sky and Generation Me.

It's a promo copy, my brother worked on it.

I don't think ROTS or myself are following it either.

True, i currently only watch RAW on fastforward every week, that's about it for wrestling at the moment.

And I only manage to get through about 20 minutes at most before switching to something else. I do tend to fast-forward through iMPACT! though, but only for certain acts.

I try to watch the PPV's, but I still end up turning away before the event finishes in a lot of cases.

Is it wrong that I get more enjoyment from discussing wrestling and reading news from certain sites than actually watching the product? Fast-forwarding is becoming the only way I can sit through a show now.

For those that like their stats, tonight will be the 5th Buried Alive match, of which Undertaker has been in all of them.

• In Your House 11: Buried Alive: The Undertaker defeated Mankind (The Undertaker was then buried)
• Rock Bottom In Your House: Steve Austin defeated The Undertaker.
• SmackDown, September 1999: Undertaker and Big Show defeated The Rock and Mankind
• Survivor Series 2003: Vince McMahon defeated The Undertaker

So what does that mean for the GRAPL? Absolutely nothing. Maybe if there's any pattern, Undertaker is losing tonight - but that's basically a shot in the dark.

Was he responsible for the physics engine by any chance?

Was playing it last night and there is no evidence of the above. Everything broke naturally in the TLC match I played.
