I was digging the New Japan talk in the WWE thread, so I will post rambles. Not rumbles. I love the Monday wrestling show from the 90s, I enjoy tuning in to long promos, soap opera shlock, comedy, etc. Comparing WWE to other promotions these days, feels like two very different ideas. I loved ROH in 2006-2009, fell out of it but I like seeing those guys in WWE today. And did like seeing Chris Daniels at a Wrestle Kingdom etc. So I guess following New Japan is more like following ROH then, where you're watching dull love shows of long matches, sometimes short promos? (edit: that was supposed to say full live shows, phone says dull love shows, I guess maybe like Models Inc etc) I'd like to give New Japan more of a try sometime, I do think overall I prefer a WWE or ECW style of show though. I want long subtitled promos and high drama outside of the Big matches I guess. Though maybe there's more of that in New Japan than I'd figure? Edit, meant to post in the Japan thread but this is cool too! Heavy Metal fucked around with this message at 00:03 on Mar 20, 2018 |

There's no case but i don't think it has anything to do with too sweet. putting OG BC on a shirt is inferring the bullet club name even though it's "not"

Gonz posted:For what? Doesn't WWE own the copyright on too sweet and the hand gesture, too? Or am I thinking of something else? NJPW owns the trademark to Bullet Club and a shirt with "BCOG" on it is pretty close to infringing on that. Of course WWE can just go "lol it means Balor Club! " but the spirit of it is obvious.

Angle is saying Braun needs to find a tag partner in order to get his title match at Wrestlemania. I hope Braun just holds up his fists and says THESE HANDS are his tag partners.

The design is also really close to the Bullet Club shirts while also, amazingly enough, having none of the style that makes the Bullet Club shirt a good shirt.

Didn't the first Balor Club shirt have an even more obvious rip-off design that they basically instantly pulled from the store because it WOULD have gotten them sued? And the Too Sweet thing is classic corporate power play. WWE don't really have a legal leg to stand on regarding the gesture or phrase as they'd let it slide for nearly 5 years, but they were banking on neither NJPW nor the Young Bucks wanting to actually shell out the money to contest it in court.

So how long will the ultimate deletion be tonight? Five minutes? Throughout Raw with cuts from and to it? How much will they let Matt and Bray carny the gently caress out?

I think the best part is there are actual people who think Nia vs Alexa will be a BETTER WRESTLING MATCH than Asuka vs Charlotte. Thanks twitter!!! My guess is that they book Nia/Alexa as a comedy match with Alexa doing all sorts of #funny chicanery and stalling to avoid getting her rear end kicked, then she can't avoid it anymore and so she gets her rear end kicked. Maybe even throw in that "Alexa can't kip up" spot they do at house shows. It'll get 7 minutes. I dunno, it could be good if they do it right, and those two are friends so they could make it amusing. Lot of "could"s in that.

Le Saboteur posted:I wonder if its possible they make Bliss/Asuka for the title tonight to set up a title vs title match at Wrestlemania. Because man, Nia vs Alexa just seems dull. I can't wait for Nia to steamroll her for the majority of the match only to slip and hit the exposed middle turnbuckle and get rolled up for the win.

I don’t like that they didn’t even have a failed spot where Alexa tries to hit Mickie to cost Asuka her streak. Just have the ref not see it, or do the once a year spot where the ref knows what’s going on and doesn’t fall for it.

Yeah, I think its safe to say that Alexa vs Nia will probably be one of, if not the worst match on the Wrestlemania card to be honest. Especially if it goes longer than a few minutes. There will be plenty of boring matches, but I doubt anything will top Alexa vs Nia in terms of how awful it will be from a wrestling perspective.

At this point they might as well toss Bayley and Sasha in the mix and try to salvage it.

Because they are afraid to pull the trigger on it, but now they may actually do it, and it will suck. May as well get it out of the way, is their logic probably.

Nia walked because she wasn't getting title shots. Her gambit worked, she's getting Wrestlemania. Also someone was talking about Kevin Dunn and said "over a decade". Started in the 80s, 1993 he was made executive producer, 2003 executive vice president of television production. Over 30 years doing this, he's as stuck in the past and carny as Vince. What mad person would want someone that dated doing their production?
