The Wrestling Thread: WWE WrestleMania 31 [NSFW]

[Return_of_the_STAR]

Really don't want a rematch between those two. Give Lesnar someone fresh to defeat on the road to wrestlemania as it would strengthen him rather than a PPV rematch loss to HHH.

Props to them giving Punk such a long reign though. That's the right way to rebuild the credibility of the belt by going with a few long reigns. Would love to see him hold it for over 380 days which I think would be the longest reign since 1984!

What's he at now? Would 380 days take him past royal rumble when he fights rock?

Also checked my grapl results don't think I did very well, probably average at least I got lesner result right though.

Faith in WWE booking restored.

Where's Chocolate Jim?

Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst was escorted out of the STAPLES Center in Los Angeles last night after flipping the bird while being shown on camera prior to the main event match between Brock Lesnar and Triple H. He denied this on Twitter, though the message has now been deleted.

Even if you're a celebrity, you just don't swear on kids TV.

[Drumstick]

I wonder if Limp Bizkit are still the WWE's favourite band?

[Barley]

Cracking day for me. Just barca left on my 6 fold acccy and I'm in business

And it was all going so well.

I thought Summerslam overall was a decent, if unspectacular show (same feelings towards Hardcore Justice). Felt like any other regular B show PPV event.

WWE at least made the rights calls in both the WWE and Triple H/Lesnar matches, though kind of ironically I thought both matches were disappointing, especially the main event. Easily the worst main WWE have had since John Cena and The Miz at Over The Limit in May of last year. I mean the crowd didn't give a strawberry float at all throughout the majority of this thing it was so boring.

You know, the outcome of the main event could have gone either way, result didn't surprise me at all, though what did surprise me was the layout of the match. There was no bullshit, there was no interference - even by Paul Heyman - and no get-out clause for Triple H. He simply...well, lost. And a good section of the crowd shat on that, too.

[Zellery]

Lesnar winning is the right thing to do ..... It will just never happen.

[Hank Scorpio]

My GRAPL predictions were horribly wrong

[Bindal]

The right people won but the matches were shite.

[Dante]

six identical black men.

Loved the main event, surprised to see people didn't like it. One of the better WWE matches I've seen in some time.

[Mafro]

the only people feuding for the ugly tag belts are six identical black men.

Lucin in "they all look the same" shocker. Who are the other two black men you are talking about? The Usos (Samoan), or Epico and Primo (Puerto Rican)?

[Zellery]

That's some sweet casual racism right there, Lucien.

Grats.

I didn't say they all looked the same, how racist of you to assume that.

They are identical in that nothing makes them stand out from each other. Of the six, five are lighter guys who do a few flips now and again. As faces the identikit teams are boring, as heels, cocky. Contrast that with years ago; you had monster/light guy teams, showmen teams like LOD, brawlers tagged with technical guys... this division nowadays is beige as hell.

So who are the other two black men you were on about?

[Rog]

Going through the thread I've got to feel sorry for Jim. He wasted a fair bit of money on HHH and was so sure. Plus he did have a loser leaves the thread stip with Lucien. So technically Jim is gone from here

[Zellery]

Excellent news.

Drumstick stays at the top though his lead has been shortened. Ironmaiden climbs with a PPV win bolstering his score despite being eliminated from the tag battle.

Also Proto is now in 3rd. strawberry floating 3rd. You should all be ashamed. Have words with yourselves.

[Zellery]

Not a bad showing from me.

Caped Chameleon and I are going to become the new Tag Team Champions. I had to eliminate my former Tag Champ partner Drummy. I did a Shawn vs Flair style mouthing of the words 'I'm sorry' as I Rock Bottomed him.

[Dante]

12 points, better then I thought I had done.A big thanks to Rog for making sure Tomvek was DQs so me and ROTS could scrape through
