The Big WWE Wrestling Thread

Its a bit worrying when you realise how much Cena must have been carrying the show lol.

Sorry to hear about Shamus, he seemed like a decent fella and enjoyed him in the ring, hopefully he's able to make a recovery.

The whole HHH/ McMahon family being hated seems to be their fall back story for when they have ran out of things to do, Ziggler to me is easily their best on the roster, and is great fun to watch in the ring ( he sells a move like no other), yet he was sent to be a warm up act for BG...really?.
Bryan I kinda like the whole "yes" thing when its in full swing is a good watch, but Orton is, to me, just crap, I have never liked him, he's so utterly boring to watch I can easily skip all his parts.

They need a HUGE story line again, WWE Vs ECW/ WCW was a great time, they need to make a story that does that again and slit the WWE in two, and make the story sick for about a year, they seem hell bent on short story build ups and the "bad guy" getting his comeuppance very VERY quickly.

I miss the Attitude Era!

Kimi · 10 Oct 2013 at 13:05

Attitude Era was the best for sure but the pg element isnt what's wrong, there has been some good stuff recently.

The vacant belt is stupid, the storyline where Bryan keeps getting knocked back is stupid, ok you've got to let the heel get on top, build some heat against the face but Orton isn't building the heat HHH is and hes not wrestling. I think its going a way for HHH vs Bryan match.

They should have let Bryan with the title first time around when he beat Cena that was a genuine reaction from the crowd at the victory

One way this thing could play out tho heading towards mania is for HHH/Stephanie to completely dominate the roster, beat them all down. Get Vince back on TV with the angle of "what the hell are you doing with my business" then Feud with HHH/Steph, coming to a head with a match at Wrestlemania HHH vs Vinces pick for control of the company. Vinces pick would obviously be Stone Cold Steve Austin, who is making noises about one more match, he would trust HHH not to risk injury to him. I think thats one way it could go. Saying that tho, its always been Stone Cold vs CM Punk thats the rumored last match for Austin

I liked my idea for Battleground better - they should have turned Bryan!

Steph/HHH were disappointed with Randy Orton not being the Viper they used to know - let the match run its course and back the winner as their new corporate champion

Instant MEGA heat!

Brabbinho · 10 Oct 2013 at 14:58

If they turn Bryan they are left with only Cena and Punk as major faces. For what ever reason they don't like DZ

You may as well put Kane into a pink tutu. And place a babies bonnet on the Big Show. I have been watching WWE since 1989. Watching greats like Demolition. Randy Savage. Chris Benoit. Kurt Angle. Bam Bam Bigelow. Ricky Steamboat. To me at least, there seemed to be many "Characters" to choose from. Back then, that is, that stood out. Even, Bobby Heenan, & Gorilla Monsoon. And more Or less each and every match left you on the edge of your seat. Straight up-to the Attitude era. Now-a-days I do my best to enjoy WWE.. but it' doesn't contain the same satisfaction. Story-lines are repetitive. And there is a sense of reliant focused on the same wrestlers. I only hope things pick up in the near future.

I'm enjoying the Wyatt family, so far.

better match than the whole PPV

cena vs del rio @ hell in the cell

hope Cena wins but Sandow cashes in

Hell in a cell what a let down

aceytrixx · 30 Oct 2013 at 08:58

It was about as good as I expected really. I enjoyed the end of the orton/bryan match as I didnt see i coming which is a rarity these days.

On the whole though im very much back into TNA or at least I was untill I read about the impact after bound for glory which was depressing. The opener of BFG also should have been left to go longer.

Tna copying WWE story lines and some how making them worse!

The only good thing to come out of hiac was the possibility of hbk coming out of retirement for Daniel Bryan

Only if hes willing to put Bryan over. I really think a big win at WM30 (Ideally for the title) would be a big pay off for this angle if they run it that long

Adam_101 · 31 Oct 2013 at 14:01

Dont think HBK will be out of retirement (Id love to be proved wrong though). I think we could see Sting vs Undertaker at WM - could be wishful thinking though!

Brabbinho · 31 Oct 2013 at 14:20

Bryan to be made to enter the rumble at #1 by HHH and go onto win.

and then defeat Orton at mania. Would actually make Mania worth watching again.

Adam_101 · 31 Oct 2013 at 15:13

I read somewhere about Austin, Hogan, and some other old nostalgia coming back for WM 30. But tbh I think it needs to be a good mixture of everything that was good about WWE/F. When DX reformed earlier this year on raw I think it was - it was good, and brought back memories, I think this needs to happen again on the biggest stage of all.

Brabbinho · 31 Oct 2013 at 15:53

Hopefully we'll get:

Taker v Lesnar

Bryan v Ortan

Punk v Stonecold - Though looking less likely these days

Not sure on Cena maybe Ziggler for the heavyweight championship

Adam_101 · 31 Oct 2013 at 16:01

Punk vs Stone Cold would be interesting but I agree not likely but you never know! Another I heard was Goldberg vs Rybeck I think.

I had forgotten Lesnar would be around. Can easily stick him with Taker then im completly not fussed on it.
Id also say Ziggler wont be fighting for the title at Mania. Id quite like more of Sandow and Cena. That opening match on raw was really good.

I think they really want Golderg hence the blu ray set and him being in the game.

As muh as I love everything Punk does I dont really want to see him vs Austin. I dont think Austin would be quite as good as we remember (see The Rock). Mind you not sure where that leaves Punk but im sure something will turn up.

It may not be obvious but I really hate nostalgia trips. Rock has ruined the last few manias for me. The only time he was tolerable was when he was against Punk and Punk just outclassed him everyweek.

I see what you mean with the Rock's performance, it was OK though...I think I just miss the good'ol wrestling days especially the 1996/7 Attitude era! lol.
