It certainly seemed like she was going to be on the shelf for months. Sasha is one of those people who's going to basically destroy herself for wrestling and have to retire probably by age 30 max.

The Braun v. Sin Cara match was a bad idea. There was several spots where you could really tell that Braun wasn't pulling his weight. There was one really bad part was outside the ring where Sin Cara was running up the steel steps for a move and he very clearly had to slow down because Braun wasn't in place yet. We all know Braun isn't good, but showcasing that when you're trying to push him probably isn't smart. Not to mention having Braun get a count out win when he's been absolutely destroying people makes him look weaker. Someone as tough as Braun should be getting clean pins on Sin Cara because he certainly doesn't have the credibility right now as a legit threat unless you pay attention to non-kayfabe stories about the guy.

Congrats on Bo Dallas for doing a heel turn while he's already heel. Also I'm not gonna call it "The New Day Segment" when the New Day was only in like 25% of it and they almost barely salvaged it a little.

I've always been okay with countout victories because if this wrestle-sport is a real sport why wouldn't you want a victory? It definitely makes more sense than the million times a non-champ heel decides to get himself disqualified or counted out to avoid a beating. You're supposed to cheat to win you maroon. Edit- Just googled the word maroon. reignofevil fucked around with this message at 15:36 on Sep 6, 2016 |

remember the time Daniel Bryan did a fake retirement segment to say he was going to win the Royal Rumble, then he got tossed out in ten minutes

MinibarMatchman posted:I loving hate non-title matches between champions and contenders that end with the contender winning Skinty McEdger posted:Well the thing to remember about the New Day is that their segments have been consistently utter poo poo since the start of the year, but they have both a lot of good will from when their segments were good and are just really likeable in general so they get a pass. I love New Day and don't want to agree but yeah.... you are right. They are great in backstage, great in ring but every one of their in ring skits has just been "meh" at best and painful at worst. I hate seeing it as those segments are, more than like, the most Vince influenced and thus complaining will only lead to a New Day breakup. I want to see them live before Vince crushes that dream. As good as Big E is, you know once New Day is done he will be stumbling with generic face promos and staring at monitors backstage yet again. Yesterdays skit was a Gallows and Anderson Vince skit. It was about New Day but I won't blame them for it. New Day was so drat good when Vince didn't notice and, even in their current state, are still better than most WWE. They sell a ton of merch, make children laugh and make me smile. Also give something for brothas both big and small to cheer for. That part may seem weird but watch the crowd reactions and ask your friends. I know one mate of mine, Byron, couldn't have cared less before but the New Day poo poo cracks him up and he will gladly do the WWE -TAG - TEAM- CHAMPIOOOONS! bit at work. He's bought so much merchandise. Also Kofi gets a great sendoff at the final part of his career and I love Kofi. So yeah.... win win. Please don't break them up Vince you senile loon. sticklefifer posted:I hope the remainder of Roman's career is him suddenly showing up during a title challenge he has nothing to do with, an authority figure saying "If Roman wins he'll be added to the PPV match", and then losing due to interference from whoever he's about to feud with next. And this happens forever.

Phenix Rising posted:So what's the deal with Sasha? Was her back injury way overblown and they didn't bother having her thoroughly checked out until after Summerslam? It certainly seemed like she was going to be on the shelf for months. Long story short her own doctor cleared her but WWE doctor's refused to. I could detail the dialogue between all three parties. But it is kind of tedious. It was a fairly minor issue with her back. Something solved with some physiotherapy. But the WWE doctors decided they wouldn't clear her despite her protests. Internet reports that she was injured REALLY upset her as her reputation is bad enough. Personally I thought she'd be out for more than a month and the situation was akin to Daniel Bryan's with the decision taken from on high that WWE wouldn't clear her for liability reasons. As there's another negligence lawsuit yet to filed later this year. Probably the most valid one so far.

i get a feeling that it was trying to redo the Rock push, since Rock used the NOD theme for a while but like, come on, Rock changed his music by now, right?

It's more like his theme started out as a dressed up version of the NOD theme and over several iterations they emphasised the new parts and de-emphasised the NOD parts until you end up with his current theme that's completely different to the original NOD theme. Kind of cool imo.

Efexeye posted:Why did anyone ever like Sasha? She looks like a troll doll and is horrible on the mic When a wrestler only matters once every 2-3 months, you have plenty of time to prepare for that one moment, and thus it's relatively easy to look really, really good. The other NXT women have been exposed since people started paying attention to them every week, but Sasha has been too busy getting injured (while bitching about dirtsheets and claiming otherwise) to be exposed yet.

I'm happy to add Bo Dallas to the list. Big Daddy V would make it but sadly he is deceased and the only undead wrestler who can make it is The Undertaker. Except, the Undertaker is actually bad. Going to have to give a no to Dean Ambrose as long as he's using the wacky lunatic larialine
