Everyone is missing the actual important part of tonight. https://twitter.com/SonyaDevilleWWE/status/1345221929226166272 Sonya's back. I will now gladly begin watching the WWE again via YouTube clips uploaded onto non-WWE channels because lol at giving them any kind of views whatsoever.

Quantum of Phallus posted:I love Sonya, her promos were amazing during that feud with Mandy and Otis. Sonya has always been a secretly great promo. I just really hope they get behind her this time and give her a decent push. (They won't.) I'm still waiting quietly and patiently for a feud between her and Asuka...

Power Windows posted:I've said it a million times, but go back and watch her match against Io at Worlds Collide 2019. She's only gotten better since then. When it comes to wrestling, I want little more in 2021 than a Sonya push. She could absolutely be a major star if they would just get behind her. (And put her and Mandy back together, thanks. Not like you've got Mandy doing anything else.)

R-Truth and Carmella made for a pretty fun team together, and Carmella getting to join in with her own parts on the entrance rap was a lot of fun. Of course, like all good things in the WWE, they had to split them up.

That angle ended with lesbian hotel sex and Torrie's dad's death, so I'm excited to see how this Ric/Lacey angle turns out.

Grendels Dad posted:It reminds me of that Chun Li-focused Street Fighter movie. I haven't actually seen it, but I remember reading about it on SA and chuckled at how the best part is apparently Chris Klein constantly yelling NASH OUT into walkie-talkies. It's been a while but if I'm remembering right, Balrog punches Chun Li's mom so hard she gets cancer and dies. What a fuckin' awful movie.

BrigadierSensible posted:Also, why is Sonya DeVille now management? I seem to remember her being heel, so is she a heel authority figure? Is she Adam Pearce's lackey or hanger on? Was she wearing a power suit to show that she is now management? She lost to Mandy so she can never wrestle again or something. (Honestly, it's probably temporary, a way to keep her on the show and give her something to do but an easy way to not have her around if stuff with her trial comes up and she has to miss a night.)

quote:* The New Day’s Xavier Woods and WWE Intercontinental Champion Big E are out first to open the actual show taping. Cole says The New Day is here for a special Bhangra performance. They wish a Happy Republic Day to Indians. They do their usual promo and mention that they have special plans. The Street Profits interrupt and Montez Ford apparently fumbled his promo some. All four then announce a special “Spinning Canvas” performance. A Dhol Beater comes out followed by several dancers for a Bhangra performance. After the Bhangra performance, all four Superstars have a dance party in the ring with some Bollywood-style dancing. Did anyone here actually watch the Spectacle? Was this offensive? Because this feels like it had a ton of potential to be offensive, and well, it's the WWE so...

Jerusalem posted:I toxxed that if Bryan doesn't win I won't watch WWE again until the next Royal Rumble, and I fully expect not to be watching till the Royal Rumble next year because I don't think Vince can resist doing Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania, that's right it's time for the only two members of The Shield who ever existed to FINALLY (again) wrestle each other! Either you win the toxx or you don't have to watch the WWE. No matter what you win!

Neodoomium posted:The worst rumble was the one where there was an extended sequence where Kane and the Big Show systematically dumped everyone's favorite wrestlers out of the ring like bags of garbage, as though Vince himself was screaming at the audience for liking them The best part is when they eliminated Daniel Bryan right as Goldust was entering, and they made sure to capture SHATTERED DREAMS in the background as Daniel hit the floor.

Wont it cause the slice to be all weird when you try pulling it apart with what amounts to a sticker stuck onto it that hasnt been cut If I had to make a guess, I'd assume the heat from the pizza melts it onto the pizza and then it comes apart easily?

JOHN CENA posted:This went under the radar, but WWE purchased the distribution and broadcast rights for the Like Mike films, likely a move to expand their films division's focus. This purchase also secures them the name to the fictional LA Knights NBA team that Lil Bow Wow plays for in the series' first film. Interesting stuff. Is this true or just a joke?

I know it's probably not going to be, but I really hope Young Rock is good, or at the very least decent. I really like the casting job they've done for the show. Some of the actors playing the wrestlers are really spot on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyFDQDAZ16I (Is the WWE thread appropriate for this? I guess it's close enough?)

karmicknight posted:Please return to talking about the WWF, a wrestling promotion that has a Pay Per View tonight. You're not going to fool me. They just had the Rumble like, two weeks ago. No one would be dumb enough to run another ppv so close to another like that.

TV Zombie posted:I want to think that you're joking about the Rumble but I can't trust this company. Their PPV schedule is so forgettable and yet they run PPVs frequently. Three weeks ago. My bad. It's still too soon. At least it's better than that period they were doing two PPVs a month I guess. Coaaab posted:You know, I never really notice the gap between PPVs for AEW even though there are only four per year because they're good at trying to make their TV matter from week-to-week while also holding special events on a monthly basis that they also just give away on TV. They're real good at making their PPVs seem important and special and they treat them like a right and proper big deal. Funny how you can do that when you're not making GBS threads one out every couple weeks.

The Charlotte promo from tonight was cringey as hell and just makes me dislike her even more. "I'm not trying to be Ric Flair's daughter, I'm trying to be Charlotte Flair!" Yeah well if that's the case then perhaps you should stop doing an entrance that uses a remix of Ric's theme while you're wearing a Ric-style robe, stop yelling 'Woo' as a catchphrase, and stop using a variant of his finishing move then? Just a thought?

Intruder posted:Natural Selection is just a lovely version of a reverse blockbuster so she doesn't have much choice Hmm, yeah, it's not like there are literally hundreds of other moves that exist in professional wrestling that she could try to use and adapt into a new finishing move, nope, she has to use the one that's a variant of her dad's while screaming about how she isn't her dad.

Eat My Fuc posted:I like Charlotte. If she wasn’t in a company run by idiots she could be as good a heel as Britt Baker but with better ring work. Hopefully she leaves someday she’s an ace in my mind, as long as the company doesn’t try to make her a babyface. I used to like Charlotte a bunch. For a while she was probably my favorite Horsewoman. Her overpushing just killed her for me though, and her poo poo with Kairi Sane was the last straw. I do think she would excel in literally any other company, where she could have consistent, good, and worthwhile booking and storytelling.
