Just caught up on Raw, while watching it the burning question on my mind was wouldn't it have made more sense for Jinder to beat Roman Reigns after the GONG so that HBK's promo about Roman being distracted at a time when he needed his wits about him actually made sense. The ending segment was so terrible that I literally forgot the Roman one even happened and had to go back through the results to remind myself what it was.

Xavier: You see Stephanie, video games are when you have complete control over the actions and lives of the characters who inhabit a world designed purely for your entertainment. Also when you're not around they don't exist. Stephanie: This all seems very familiar.

SUN GOD AVATAR posted:Is there truly a problem yet though? I mean, we all bitch about the status of wrestling, especially with how they're using their wrestlers, but we are all still watching. They're making huge amounts of money thanks to their television deal, offset somewhat by the loss of PPV revenue in favor of the Network. The big question is what happens once the TV deal runs out, and that will largely depend on the state of television at the time and how much USA finds value in being king of the hill when it comes to basic cable ratings. I'm sure plenty of others can go into way deeper detail (and probably correct me for being wrong on the above!), but I think the general idea seems to be that even with the continuing ratings decline and dropping (I think) ticket sales, things seem pretty rosy in at least the short term for the McMahons, regardless of how poor quality the product might be or how short-sighted or self-defeating a lot of their decisions seem to be.

This should absolutely go without saying, but if you're going to post links to this stuff apply a  tag to it. I'd prefer you didn't post the links at all to be perfectly honest but nobody is going to be probated or banned for it so long as they're not being giant creeps about it.There is a lot of room for discussion on the impact of this type of thing not just on Paige, her career, the movie they're making about her family etc as well as double standards real or perceived over how the men involved will be treated. Just don't take things in creepy directions is all I ask.

Timby posted:No, but J-Ru said it would be fine as long as it had a NWS tag and people weren't "giant creeps" about it. Just to clarify, I don't think it's fine but I also don't think (though I've asked for clarification from the admins) that it is something I should be probating or banning people for, just discouraging from being done. I saw links were posted earlier with a NWS warning but no NWS tag which is why I clarified that. If you want to discuss this further with me feel free to PM and we can discuss it there without disrupting this thread too much.

I'm not the one who closed the thread but I'm reopening it now. The Paige discussion is completely throwing everything off, so it's off-limits in this thread now. If somebody really wants to talk about it, make a thread for it - but no links to the videos or pictures.

The thing that really got to me about the last Raw was they had Undertaker's gong play to distract Roman during his match with Jinder. Then Roman beat Jinder anyway. Then Shawn Michaels came out and said,"You're clearly distracted and that's going to cost you the victory" after just demonstrating that Roman can win in spite of distraction. I know equating Jinder to Undertaker is ridiculous, but surely the storyline would make more sense if Jinder (who felt like his job was on the line) got a bullshit victory from a distraction, so HBK's warning would actually mean something?

I think I mentioned it before, but I used to have a friend who believed ANYTHING so long as it wasn't published by a mainstream publication. Didn't matter what it was, didn't matter how batshit out there it was as an idea - if it was published by anything OTHER than mainstream media then she believed it. The reverse was also true, if the mainstream media reported ANY story it was a lie/cover-up/conspiracy, plain and simple. It was utterly exhausting trying to talk to her about any subject in the news, but she enjoyed wrestling for a little bit at least  (yes she believed Montreal was a work)

Because I remember actively dreading that particular Wrestlemania and it ended up absolutely ruling. I still hold out hope Shane is gonna introduce his champion Shinsuke Nakamura to take on that dastardly AJ Styles

Yorkshire Tea posted:Old NXT is worth it for when Barrett gets told to give a speech on the word "Wind," and somehow turns it into gold. I remember one of the ideas for that first season was that Otunga's strength was in his promos, then it got down to him and Barrett. Barrett went first and just eviscerated him on the mic.
