The Wrestling Thread: WWE WrestleMania 31 [NSFW]

Why are you happy about Bret Hart.... the guys crippled. He couldn't beat my mum up.

Miz quoting every step you take
Great match/segment

The usual supplier of links has decided not to upload RAW to MegaUpload for whatever reason.

MegaUpload links will probably appear soon enough, however.

Why are their 7 people in Cena's team? Nexus only has 6 now. This must mean that Bret Hart isnt actually going to wrestle etc only stand around at watch a lot.

Also i hate strawberry floating R-Truth, he's gooseberry fool, strawberry float off R-Truth, you ruinned Miz's moment, Truthtard.

Not a bad Raw overall though.

Nexus has seven members...

[Adam Pollard]

Really great Raw tbh, awesome show top to bottom.

[Return_of_the_STAR]

Nexus has seven members...

You're right, for some reason i was thinking that Daniel Bryan leaving dropped them from 7 to 6.

Also i didn't give any thoughts on MITB ppv, i actually thought it was very good overall. V Good considering it was free for us in the UK. Fantastic to see Kane finally rewarded, with only his second WWE world title win (ECW HW title doesn't count). He really is a solid worker, he deserves better use of his character like he has been receiving recently.

Also The Miz won MITB which is great and what i hoped for. After having seen RAW i'm guessing that he will keep hold of this briefcase for quite a while so i expect him to be fueding with Buck-truth for a while yet

Just nearly ordered a Nexus shirt from WWEShop.com.

$19.95 for the shirt. Interested...

and then $34.95 for shipping.

strawberry float. THAT.

I'm sure it will be available on wweeuroshop.com shortly, they don't usually have that big a gap now. Miz's 'i'm awesome' t-shirt was on there pretty much as soon as it was available in the states too. No guarantees though as the euro shop sometimes is a few months behind.

Raw was really good, especially the opening hour. After the last few weeks where the first hour has been horrible (and the ratings in hour 1 lower than normal), they really pulled it together this week. Fantastic match to start the show, the crowd were really into everything, including Orton. Even Michael Cole seemed somewhat rejuvenated compared to his usual by-the-numbers self.

Bash at the Beach 1996 – Hulk Hogan was revealed to be the third man; Summerslam 2010 – John Cena turns on his team & joins Nexus?

At the end of the PPV I think he picked up a Nexus arm band. I was expecting him to pull up a sleeve to reveal it last night. Maybe he'll do it at Summerslam instead...

[Cosmo]

The one thing that really pissed me off at MitB was Stryker's constant stream of bullshit. No, Matt, you did not see Sheamus asking Dolph Ziggler for advice on the sleeper hold, and you didn't see the Usos talking to Jericho. strawberry float off.

I will believe it when i see it. Personally i would love that too happen but even though practically every big face in wwe history has turned heel after being a big face i just can't imagine it with cena. I know he started out as a heel and i know he can play the role but would vince be prepared to lose all those merchandise sales from the kids?

Could be a fake turn so he could "get inside Nexus"

Sheamus asking Dolph Ziggler for advice on the sleeper hold

He actually said that? That doesn't suit either of their characters.

The Raw Guest Host ain't ending any time soon...

Bobb'e J. Thompson will host RAW on October 18th & country singer Toby Keith will host the following week.

I really wish they'd dump it. Last night showed how much focus they take away every [other] week. Remove the poor comedy & the need to get the guest host over, put the focus back on Raw being a wrestling programme & the show improves by leaps & bounds.

[Rog]

Toby Keith!?

*flashbacks to awful TNA segments*

He did. At first I thought I'd imagined it, but he did actually say it.

TNA Wrestling are promoting their next pay per view event as 'Hard Justice: One Last Stand'. There is a commercial running on cable and satellite providers promoting the event, which features TNA footage of ECW alumni such as Sandman, New Jack and Raven. An audible "ECW!" chant is heard at one point during the commercial. Years ago when Shane Douglas ran ECW reunion show Hardcore Homecoming, WWE's legal team demanded they edit out the fans' "ECW!" chants off the DVD release.

The current planned name for the ECW faction is 'The Riot Makers'.

TNA really are asking for trouble constantly referring to ECW on their programming.

I AM PERFECTION!
