I don't mean gimmicked poo poo like tables and that, that's a given. But I wonder about other equipment.

I mean it's WWE they have millions of dollars so they probably don't give a poo poo I'm just wondering about weird production stuff :shobon:

Wasn't there something in a TNA lawsuit where it came out they were booking talent in hardcore matches and making them bring their own weapons?

Any motivation I've had to spend hours making crazy rassling gifs has been crushed lately. Speaking of

Live RAW gifs

Nobody hurts like this man



Why's it called "The Rack Attack"?! Oh, right...



At least he's not just catchphrase-over (like some other turd)



"I am lawyer camarado, not rasseler mans"



Neener neener I broke your little streak!



My reaction when Roman Reigns interrupts Paul Heyman's promo



Spun him right round, baby!



This IC battle is really going over the top!



And that's a fact, cat... clap

Dammit, you can take my enjoyment of wrestling all you want WWE, but when you take away WrasslorMonkey's you've gone too far!

I feel for you though, they aren't worth the effort these days.

Edit: Goddammit I just saw that you did put in an Over the Top gif, you're the greatest man alive.

I'm pretty sure JBL got legit kicked in the face when Ambrose got thrown over the announce table. Gawrsh I'd sure like to see that again. :allears:

I know he still wrestles in a shirt and all, but man does Steen look in so much better shape than he did even a year ago. He hasn't looked like this since what, like 2006? It really seems like he's motivated to defy expectations and make the most of this shot in WWE.

Also I know I'm preaching to the converted, but it was kinda hilarious to see how jacked up Riley is, and yet standing next to Owens it was clear the latter was the "tough guy" of the two, he just looks like a mean old bastard (who is barely 30 years old).

Am I alone in thinking that what would improve this move the most is if she took the ground after hitting it. She looks too much like she just goes past her opponent, keeping the knees there longer would help it sink in.

Riley currently looks on the verge of crying most of the time at the moment, which doesn't help. Boy doesn't know how to portray rage well (see also that he started with a collar and elbow against a guy he loving hates).

Konnan telegraphs the turn that's probably coming next week SUPER HARD while Puma nods along.


Oh, and the main event is the most gory lucha brawl in the history of the show. Forget everything you think you know about casket matches.

Not at all, I made the gif and had the benefit of a frame by frame analysis and it still took me a couple go-throughs to figure out what the offensive part of the move was supposed to be.

Aerostar is terrifying. Some of the stuff he does is absolutely spectacular, but jesus, it's terrifying. I remember an interview Konnan did a few years back with Alvarez with him saying if Aerostar keeps up what he's doing, he'll be paralyzed by the time he's 30.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zM488qXX2U0

This was from a few years ago, but just look at the poo poo he does. His Tiger Feitn/619s are super awesome and safe (the top rope into the double stomp kick is really cool, you see that one early in the video), but between his trust fall dive, and the NO ARMS BULLET DIVE, he will be dead by 2019
