Re: Official WWE/Pro Wrestling thread
Sometimes I feel like they actually get pissed and punish a guy for getting more over than he should have. It's a ridiculous way of doing business, but there's plenty of examples of it.
There is a part of me that legitimately thinks they are keeping Bryan out of the ring because they don't want him on there getting better reactions than Reigns.

Sounds like The Rock will be there tonight. I can't wait for a 27 minute promo about pie and weight lifting that doesn't lead to a match of any kind.

Re: Official WWE/Pro Wrestling thread
The rock was never a great worker, but he was great on the mic and could be carried to a great match. Hhh is definitely a better wrestler, but he's not an all time great. He's certainly great at politicking, though.

Re: Official WWE/Pro Wrestling thread
Yeah, Rock was never a great wrestler, but he was good enough to get by on what was an incredible character. HHH was always pretty good at every aspect of the business, but I just feel like he's a little bit overrated. He never carried the company, and never had a signature match. Now, for most people not having those things isn't necessarily a bad thing, but you need those things to be one of the all time greats.

I kinda thought new day was funnier than a super coked up rock
So the point of the show was to impress the authority to get a title match.. brock gets in the triple threat match, but wasn't even on the show?? Wtf

Re: Official WWE/Pro Wrestling thread
I know the Feb PPV is no longer named for it, but wouldn't this have been the perfect time to do an elimination chamber match? Reigns/Ambrose/Styles/Owens/Sheamus/Wyatt would've had all sorts of possibilities, while also possibly advancing feuds for mania (i.e. Styles/Owens). As for Lesnar, you feed him Rowan and Harper in a handicap match and have him run roughshod over them (I love Harper but they've fucking killed any buzz he had and I have zero confidence they'll ever build him back up...he should be a modern day Bruiser Brody for god sakes) in preparation of facing Wyatt at WM

Re: Official WWE/Pro Wrestling thread
I read that it's hard for them to do the chamber now because most arenas have a huge HD screen that makes it impossible to hang the chamber.

He's a tough bastard, he came back from that stroke. Hopefully he can beat this too.
