    An 8 year old sitting behind the Godfather shows the current state of wrestling 😅

    I think we're getting a Tyler breeze entry in the men's rumble

    Serious tag team match going on here!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,078 ✭✭✭✭callaway92


    Crowd incredibly flat for that whole thing nearly, which is a pity. Quality was good.

    Very good match but the screwy finish annoyed me

    I suppose it keeps alive my hope of a TLC tag match at Mania between the three teams

    Womens Rumble was solid, although the end was a bit meh and felt rushed.

    Was a great showing for Roxanne. Think Jordynne should have gotten a stronger showing. Chelsea is over as rover and could become a great face some day. Alexa Bliss getting the pop she did was nice, interested to see what they do with her. Charlotte winning was expected. Not sure what they do with Nikki Bella but would hope they have future plans for her if they're giving her the number 30 spot. Was a reminder how good Bianca is too.

    Womens rumbles continue to be awful.

    Next entrant comes into the ring like a house of fire, most of the wrestlers are laying in the corners but come out one by one for the next entrant to do 3 or 4 spots. 90 seconds later…

    Repeat x10

    And it continues to be a problem that the girls are too small for the ropes, they all have to climb up before they can be eliminated. It just looks silly.

    I don't mind it too much as long as Tiffany retains, wins clean if Charlotte would do it



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 105 ✭✭bitent


    John Mellencamp doesn't look like he is enjoying the show.

    Yup. Am pretty sure he is already in his car. Just an appearance.



  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 55,564 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Given they are starting to show Chelsea giving tickets to families backstage I suspect she will definitely be a face at some point this year, definitely the most complete character in years in the women's division

    Calling Dusty one of the all time great brawlers or whatever is a stretch. Great charisma, but cutting your forehead doesn't make you a good brawler.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,852 ✭✭✭Iseedeadpixels


    Does Wade Barrett think hes the lead commentator? The man doesn't shut up.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,322 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Wrestlers must fúcking hate when they're booked in a ladder match.



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,155 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Honestly, I think KO does actually love them with some of the bumps he goes for.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,852 ✭✭✭Iseedeadpixels


    He'll feel that tomorrow 🤕



  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 55,564 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Outcome was predictable but some of those spots were rough. The fisherman buster on the ladder in particular.



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,155 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    I appreciate one of the folks checking on Owens going into the ring to hold the ladder to make sure it didn't fall while Cody was up there.



  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 55,564 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Also, why do they continue to portray Sami as an eejit. Comes out to ringside and does nothing. He'll get eliminated from the Rumble without much fuss too now and slip into this boring Kross storyline.

    Big old pop for Cena.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,852 ✭✭✭Iseedeadpixels


    Cena/Reigns final 2 tonight Is my prediction.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,322 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    If Roman wins he'll be in his 10th Mania main event. So he will have main evented basically a quarter of ALL Manias. Madness.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,230 ✭✭✭✭B.A._Baracus


    This is only my opinion...

    But the thing about having a ladder match is that there is a bar set. Taking like a body slam on a ladder? You could take a dozen of them. But when it comes to certain highspots that's when it gets gnarly.

    Take it wrong and injury.



  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,851 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Penta vs Rey starting off, nice



  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,996 Mod ✭✭✭✭Insect Overlord


    Awesome first two pairing!



  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Even if they just got rid of the blank rows at the bottom of that banner it would be so much better. How did it make it to the show?



  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,851 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    What are the chances Dom is number 3



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,852 ✭✭✭Iseedeadpixels


    Rey still that agile at 50 is amazing!

    Penta eliminated but not eliminated.



  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 55,564 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    That looked like 2 feet by Penta... We won't say anything though😆



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,155 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    I can't imagine why they didn't show a replay :pac:



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,852 ✭✭✭Iseedeadpixels


    Ishowspeed....my God thats a low



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,811 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    speed didn’t last long



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,155 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    I hate how painfully generic the themes are now.

    I thought that was Luke Shaw 🤣



  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Could have picked a better spot for Hendry.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,852 ✭✭✭Iseedeadpixels


    Heres Roman to elimate loads and bore us more

    I wish Joe had at least gotten something in on Roman.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,586 ✭✭✭recyclops


    Penta having a better sleep than most here



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,322 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Penta has been asleep in the corner for 10 minutes.



  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,851 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Generic theme for poor Finn and no judgement day attire????



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,155 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Penta just Road Dogging it



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,230 ✭✭✭✭B.A._Baracus


    Well that's interesting. When AJ Styles came out he got pyro.

    Charlotte was the only one to get pyro and she won. So.…aj to win?



  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,851 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,852 ✭✭✭Iseedeadpixels


    Is it just me or is Reigns kinda "sitting it out" he doesn't seem to be doing much.



  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,996 Mod ✭✭✭✭Insect Overlord


    Wonder was Braun supposed to catch Finn there. He walked off cursing as if something had gone wrong.
