Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

My favorite part of TLC was when Omos picked up AJ and Michael Cole started screaming "Can you imagine a 12 foot tall wrestler? My god, he'd be unbeatable!" Very obviously Vince's words right there, especially when Cole let out that weird moan afterwards.

My second favorite part was when Carmella hit Sasha with the wine bottle and Corey Graves said "That's good wine, unlike the CRAP sold by the little pissant company full of traitors that you might have heard of."

A 12 foot wrestler would be very beatable. His shins would buckle under the constant weight. His life would be agony.

Not from the top rope, but he did it from the top of the WarGames cage in 2018. He stopped doing it well before he was with WWE because the Young Bucks yelled at him so he wouldn't die.

Probably watched their tapes of Jack Evans at Steel Cage Warfare in early ROH when he came scarily close to breaking his neck, and that was also off the top of a cage with plenty of space to (theorethically) rotate two times.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Fun fact none of the commentators even pointed out it was a double rotation moonsault so unless you paid close attention you might never have known it happened

TLC 12/20 is part II from my understanding. I know at the end of the Owens/Roman match Roman said 'TO BE CONTINUED!" and then those comic sans letters popped up on the screen and started flashing.

Loved when the Fiend pulled out Big Show's giant chair and teased using it. Looking forward to that angle for sure.

Although I thought looking directly at the camera and saying "heh, maybe next time" was a bit on the nose and out of character though, but whatever it was fun and that's what wrestling is about imo

It's like goldy or bronzy, but made of iron.


My favourite part of TLC was the bit with the lonely mother gazing out of her window staring at a son that she just can't touch, if at any time he's in a jam she'll be by his side but he doesn't realize he hurts her so much. But all the praying just ain't helping at all cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble, so, he goes out and he makes his money the best way he know how, another body laying cold in the gutter

A lot of the 4th wall breaks were a little weird, but I understand that they feel like they need to innovate a bit more since AEW is gaining ground. I did not really appreciate the part where Big E started reading off my personal credit card information and social security number. Yeah it was fun and I dunno how they did it, but I've been cancelling credit cards all morning.

I wish people would stop posting bullshit in this thread. It’s not even remotely believable. If this were true, Vince would have wished for a 12 foot tall sports entertainer.

There's like 3 or 4 things I've read in the last page or two that I genuinely have no idea if they're real or not. It really, really is true that WWE has passed the point of being parodied.

Has Ricochet ever done a double rotation moonsault in WWE?

He did it last night on the pre-show. It was incredible. He got a good 2 count from Braun who got right back up, roared and hit his finisher for the 3 count before walking back like nothing happened. Eventually Ricochet disappeared quietly fro the ring. In a backstage segment he was interviewed and talked about how he was happy to be here and couldn't wait to face Keith Lee on Main Event and promised it would blow our minds.

I love it Maggle.

A 12 foot tall wrestler would only be beatable by one thing....a McMahon! Only the best sports entertainer in the world could beat a 12 foot tall man that called himself a wrestler.

Yeah that Camella bit was good. The wink by Carmella after Graves said that was a bit too much tho. That and the crack about how Sasha should go cry about it on twitter and threaten to quit and do porn. Just a bit too much Vince.

Was wondering what the heck happened at TLC 2019 after enjoying TLC 2020 so much.

quote:

WWE TLC 2019 Results
1 Humberto Carrillo defeated Andrade (with Zelina Vega)
2 The New Day (Big E and Kofi Kingston) (c) defeated The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder)
3 Aleister Black defeated Buddy Murphy
4 The Viking Raiders (Erik and Ivar) (c) vs. The O.C. (Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson) ended in a double countout Tag team match for the WWE Raw Tag Team Championship
5 King Corbin defeated Roman Reigns
6 Bray Wyatt defeated The Miz Singles match
7 Bobby Lashley (with Lana) defeated Rusev Tables match
8 The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) (c) defeated Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship

I don't remember a single thing from this PPV besides Charlotte Flair attempting to murder Kairi Sane live on PPV.

That was a year ago? Feels like forever.

To anyone who doesn't remember it was really bad. Like Kairi is obviously injured, begging to stop and not in her right mind but Flair is like "gently caress it got to get my spots in". She even seemed annoyed that Kairi was making it harder and had no idea that her bell was rung. Matter of fact later on Flair responded to "Welp yeah that sucked for her but I had to get my spots in. Tough biz right?"

Big news at the time but that was like a decade ago and a zillion wwe warcrimes later.

I remember seeing this on botchamania and it was one of the most uncomfortable things I've ever seen. Absolutely felt like Charlotte was trying to murder Kairi and forgot that they weren't actually trying to hurt each other.

Yeah, I try not to judge that poo poo too hard as it happens because what we see on screen isn't always what is really happening. But after hearing everyone involved talk about it, yeah, it was awful. Everyone seems to be in agreement that Kairi was hurt but Charlotte had to hit the spots because :shrug: that's the business

More that Becky wasn’t exclusively trained in the WWE bubble and realized she had to get her out of frame and out of the way from incidental flying objects while she was catching her breath

WWE wrestlers are encouraged not to improvise, every spot down to the timing is called for them, Flair was doing what she was taught to and didn’t know any better, probably not just maliciously dangerous.

More on the refs/agents/Vince for not correcting her course once Asuka and Becky realized Kairi was hurt.

I recall a pissed off Charlotte attempting a powerbomb with a ragdolled Kairi that seemed a bit malicious
