If Ivelisse wants to kill her career on live television then by all means

You've got to admit, you are kind of implausible



If I'm not mistaken, Thunder Rosa's finisher is she get them in position for a tombstone, then pulls their head over her hip, and drops into a neckbreaker. (Kind of like a reverse Air Raid Siren/Finlay's Celtic Cross). You could see Rosa trying to get Ivelisse into that position, but instead had to do a tombstone.

Thunder Rosa should keep the tombstone but do the Takako Inoue thing where she knees her opponent in the face 2 or 3 times, maybe walks a few circles around the ring while doing it, and then drops them

Yeah, you're right. She uses the Fire Thunder Driver/Rikishi Driver or a variant of it. Usually she sits out, but since Ivelisse was too far down she had to use the Tombstone.

So Thunder Rosa rules basically for being able to switch that up on the fly.

Ivelisse having a little tantrum and getting some stiff shots is so perfectly wrestling.

I can't be the only one who missed the tweet in the scroll and assumed it was going to be a 2020 wrestling story where she makes some horrible tweet or worse given it's 2020, being a bit sloppy in the ring and getting punched a few times is frankly a relief.

I also can't really understand why she wouldn't play nice in AEW given it's such a great opportunity for her career but eh wrestlers gonna wrestler

That match loving ruled so I don't see the problem here

I guess I'm in the minority in not thinking it ruled. It felt clunky and Ivelisse's lazy offense took me right out of things every time.

Not going to agonize over it but I do hope they resolve/have resolved it in whatever way makes the most sense.

This would have happened a week ago, no? They're still planning to have her appear next week, I assume they had lots of time to change it if they didn't think she was a fit.

Anyway, I didn't see this here in the thread yet.

This would be good for both Dark Order and Shawn Dean.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

JUNGLE BOY posted:

ya blew it Ivelisse
The fans there mentioned that they'd probably have to heavily edit the match so there might've been a lot worse stuff from Ivelisse we didn't see make it. I thought the tombstone spot looked super off too. When they announced her I was thinking "Here we go again" in my head, and TH2 were already talking about how they didn't want anything to do with her but people kept insisting that she was good and changed so I just say on my hands. I'm still lol'ing that they're going to put her in a tag team match next week against two people I would definitely not try and shoot against. Even if Shida and Rosa are total professionals, Rosa will definitely put you in shoot submissions if she wants you to sell, and Shida is so powerful she can just manipulate her however she wants Brock Lesner style, and BOTH women kick really, really hard when they want to. Poor Diamonte

Yeah it's going to be a cool textual detail if Shawn (Sharpdene) Dean becomes 7 of the Dark Order and it's a constant reminder of that time MJF punked him out on TNT.

It's definitely a concern but I think they can work around it by having a serious side and a goofy side to the Dark Order. Shawn would be a good addition to the serious side. You could even work his troop gimmick into it by making a story about how he struggled on his own and felt like he needed to be part of an organization again in order to succeed.

Not just that but make him the Dark Order drill sergeant and have him whip that gently caress up literal child John Silver into shape.

I wish Tony would stop tweeting about the demo if he’s going to tweet only about the “male” demo it looks weird. The fans are going to drone on about the demos more than TV executives anyway so it’s not like people won’t know.

Also it’s not like NXT will ever beat them in the demo anyway, it’s practically impossible. Maybe it’s just because I find the whole male/female words very stupid in general but it’s getting tiring. NXT is as far as i’m concerned a failed idea, why even compete with it at all. I don’t even watch takeovers anymore all the way I only watch their women’s matches on stream after shows air. The “war” has been over for months.

Their numbers with women are decidedly middle of the pack, that’s why he’s not bragging about them.

Anyway, I think it’s real interesting that they’re putting Brandi vs. Anna Jay on the post-NBA showcase show. It does let them highlight one of the hotter angles they’ve got going, but it’s a lot of trust to put in someone who’s had a baker’s dozen worth of matches and someone who’s not necessarily someone who can carry an inexperienced wrestler.

It looked extremely weird, I thought maybe Rosa wasn't confident she could hold her up so she just did the tombstone rather than risk dropping her, but it seems like Ivelisse was refusing to get into position for the Thunder Driver.

No it doesn't.

It does and at this point competing with NXT on any level is a waste of time. They should aim for beating RAW, they might be already I have no idea if they aren't now they'll be beating them soon. NXT is irrelevant to wrestling it's a parking lot for contracts.
