I'd be a casual enough fan although I do browse in here quite a bit. Reigns should go away. He has absolutely zero charisma, main event for me will be lesnar v ambrose

Think we found Paul Heyman's Boards account :pac: , joking aside I agree with you on Reigns going away and having 0 charisma. He has nothing to offer except that he's the type of guy Vince likes Wrestler wise.

That's all it takes though to get to the top in the WWE, isn't it? As long as Vince likes someone they'll be pushed as long and as hard as he keeps interest in it. I hope he loses interest.

I can neither confirm nor deny this, now I must go discuss Wrestlemania plans with my client......something something 1 in 21 & 1 :pac:

Rather excited, looking at heading over to England in July to see another Rev Pro Wrestling show So far Ishii and Shibata are on the card, they usually have good wrestlers at their stuff. Went over for a show last year, had AJ Styles, Nakamura, Ishii, Roderick Strong, Matt Sydal, Will Ospreay, Marty Scurll, Colt Cabana, and Grado at it.

Smackdown was ok this week, shame that nobody cares enough to make threads anymore. While it loses points on total lack of storyline development (which may be a plus now) it basically removes the need to endure Raw with highlights. That is easier to consume via Review a Raw now anyway
Lovin' how vindicated John Pollock feels about Shane vs Taker

Drew eventually ending up in TNA while we see Big Show and Kane on Raw annoys me.

EC3 sounds more like Kurt Angle everyday.

So what's happening on Impact this week? I've been so busy with work that I haven't seen it. A big regret of mine is that I missed Drew Galloway's match when he was wrestling in Castlebar.

He was wrestling in Castlebar? Damn it, I work over there!

Yeah. He was there in September of 2014 on a show that had Christ Masters vs. Carlito.

Hey someone did a Trips/Reigns version of the My Way video.

The preshow starts at 10pm, which will have a few matches too

In a way I'm a little relieved Cesaro is injured at the moment, because I feel sure that if he was active now he'd have been stuck in the League of Nations, and wasted yet again.

A lot of places are tipping WM to over run by 10-15 minutes this year.

It just doesn't get the blood flowing like the original one does it?

Roman Reigns is in this one, after all. I can't blame ya.

After his appearance at Mania, I've decided Cena reminds me of Angle in the way he embraces the "You suck" chants

Difference is though that Edge started those chants during his feud with Kurt Angle when Angle was a heel so it kind've stuck with him after that as a running gag. But with Cena, they just boo him because they really do think he sucks.

I love the Miz, the guy knows his character incredibly well and runs with it. He deserved a brief main event run and it's a shame it wasn't booked better, but as an upper midcarder he's really great, able to get heat, able to sell extremely well (not necessarily moves, but no one quite does an utterly humiliated face like him).

He's just extremely fun. There was a patch while they were burying him after the failed main event run where I thought I was just deluded beforehand, but the guy stuck it out and has carved himself a very nice niche.

On the other end of the scale, I can't stand Lita and dont understand why they keep bringing her back to talk. She's an interminable bore.

Yeah he is excellent in terms of the non-wrestling stuff, he's not terrible at that either, but he isn't among the better ones.

Ha ha, I never noticed that I spelled it wrong. Where is that picture from though? It looks pretty cool. The couple of times I've seen Chris Masters at these small shows he's done pretty well in the matches, makes it fairly entertaining.

League of Nations could have been great but should have been a trio though. Del Rio seems like the odd one out and should have been kept as a group of Europeans instead with Lana as their mouth piece. Could have had Rusev as your monster heel, Seamus and Barrett as a tag team if Barrett wasn't so injury prone.

Always thought that if they brought in the Forever Hooligans and put them with Rusev when he was at his monster heel mother Russia stage could have been a good group. Drop the ball big time with him and the Forever Hooligans would have made a nice addition to the tag team scene.

Speaking of russev. I saw it mentioned that russev was the only one to get any offense on the legends(stone cold) and he got some good offense and he sold the stunner like a boss too. I watched it back and he did. Maybe it says alot about austin that he isn't afraid to get the current guys over.
