Which makes my point!

Watching Lucha Underground and I think it's safe to say I would be very surprised if WWE signed Sonny Kiss, aka XO Lishus.

I can't find the Question thread so I'll ask here.

When was this picture from? I don't ever recall Bret Hart wrestling in a singlet before under his Hitman gimmick. It looks so weird seeing him in one.

Agent Coulson

Is that Lawler under the mask?

It's Survivor Series 1993. The Harts V Jerry Lawler & his knights. That's Greg Valetine under the hood as the blue knight. Barry Horowitz and Jeff 'nWo Sting' Gaylord were the other knights. Bret wore this singlet once and once only.

Monokne

Actually, I misspoke. It was to be Jerry Lawler & his Knights, then Lawler was indicted on charges of sex with a minor in Memphis, and they awkwardly put Shawn Michaels in his place. Shawn Michaels and his knights...made perfect sense.

Used google image search and found a reddit thread about rarely used ring gear saying it was Survivor Series 93.

If only we could find out when Razor Ramon wore long tights

That's only a bit before when Owen kicked Bret's leg from under his leg.

Would he not just pull the tights on up to the waist with the singlet?

Maybe the tights went missing or something that night.

All the siblings were wearing the same style outfit, the other 3 in black with pink trim, him in pink with black trim. It was cool.

I thought Renee Young's commentary debut on Raw was enjoyable and refreshing. She still has a long way to go but I certainly enjoyed her a lot more than Coach. She said after that Vince left her alone for most of the night, which for anyone who knows how Vince produces his shows, is a big deal. I'd like to see her given more changes to shine in the role.

Didn’t catch Raw but Renee is great, she seems very likeable and good natured.

This might be an unpopular thought/opinion but would Triple H being added to the main event at Wrestlemania 17 made it better in any way ?

No.

What would put that idea into your head at all

He had his WM main event slot and win at 162000 and X8, he got enough main events during that period

I mean you could sort of make an arguement for having it Stone Cold vs HHH instead and prolong that feud into X7 since he was behind the attack

The interwebs. I'm not saying it should have happened and what we got was wrestling poetry and will never be repeated(both the main event and the event in general) but I just said I'd throw it out there to the good brothers of the PW forum.

Monokne

To that point, that was the single biggest drawing Wrestlemania of all time, which meant that main event was the single biggest drawing match in wrestling history.

So no, they shouldn't have changed it! Simples. Three way feuds have never been a draw. I can't think of one which did business, save maybe for Benoit - H - HBK at WM20 but even that wasn't off the charts and the card had multiple 'main events' by then.

Usually you fantasy book the crap stuff like the invasion, when i want to be reminded of how cool wrestling was i watch that match because it's the peak of wrestling so adding HHH to it is like a nightmare to even think about

Makes for a fascinating topic for Around The Horn though at the same time, is there any appetite around for a 2018 version of it since there's no ongoing game in the pw forum atm

Austin v Triple H probably would've been the Summerslam main event in 2001 if he hadn't gotten injured.

The seed was sewn in his last Raw tag match where Triple H hit Austin with the sledgehammer.

Gerry don't visit Scarlett's Instagram today..... You might have a hearto. :pac: I just said ****ing hell out loud on the platform.

CastorTroy

He must be watching Impact religiously on a weekly basis now. Own segment in this week's episode called The Smoke Show.
Preferred the red hair though

Say what? Didn't know that.... Now, to find Impact!!!

CastorTroy

Yeah she joined a few weeks back and was interviewed a couple times and a backstage segment last week to give her her own segment from this week. Funnily enough after the discussion in the other thread, all her stuff is based entirely on her looks. No match yet.

I'm sure could just find her segments online. And here they are

I was surprised at how good her promo was when she debuted on Impact and she hasmaintained that since. Easily one of the most interesting stars in wrestling for me right now. Makes me laugh to think back to when she was cannon fodder for Nia Jax on Raw not so long ago. :pac:

Maria put up an interesting post on Instagram in response to Charlotte's diva in a women's revolution comment on Smackdown this week. Scarlett is proving her point in that it's important not to narrow or dismiss the scope of what women can contribute to the business.

CastorTroy

I can relate to her. As I've said before, I too am tired of being hot shamed

Ambrose and Rollins lose but Reigns talk them into helping him win vs Lesner
