username Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Rumors are popping up of Taker training for an appearance at No Mercy. I really hope not. But I wouldn't be surprised if they'll have him interfere in Cena-Reigns setting up Cena-Taker for Mania. I don't want it, but I'm afraid it might happen.

axlslash Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Last night, Ricochet won BOLA to become the first ever 2x winner. He then cut a promo saying that he wants to beat Chucky T for the title before "moving on to bigger and better things." Sounds like he might finally be getting out from under his Lucha Underground contract when season 3 finishes airing!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luciusfunk Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 (edited) Mae Young spoilers The Piper Niven/Toni Storm match was one of the best of the tournament. I wonder if they go anywhere with the Four Horsewomen of MMA vs Four Horsewomen of WWE encounter. I called Kairi Sane winning it as soon as I saw the bracketology special. I'm almost right. We'll see next Tuesday. Who is the lady standing in the ring with Stephanie and HHH? Edited September 4, 2017 by luciusfunk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariLegend Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 (edited) Yeah, that's what they wanted to do for months. Whether it'll actually happen or not.... Anyway having Ronda squash them just to set up a match that no one wants to see with Stephanie at Mania just for press coverage is pretty disgusting. Maybe they'll end up with a better idea like how they wanted to put fucking Shane against Lesnar, before Goldberg came back. -edit- As for Ricochet looks like maybe, he'll jump to WWE/NXT in a few months. Lucha will be off the air and he'll just have to wait 90 days. NJPW also isn't doing much with him outside the Junior Tag division at the minute. Which, while great... probably isn't what he wants. So NJPW will probably lose Ricochet, however they probably will pick up Matt Riddle and Jeff Cobb. Riddle will likely do really well in NJPW, assuming he doesn't end up like Matt Sydal and end up in prison for smuggling weed.

Finally getting through ROH's Liverpool PPV, and what a show. Cody vs Sanada, Addiction vs Bucks, and Team 3B vs LIJ are just rock solid matches all around. Taka/Scurll/Castle/Kushida was awesome too. I was at that show. I've never been to a Ring Of Honor show before. The crowd were enjoying themselves.

Cody is teasing a "huge match" for Buffalo. He's already got a match with Muno Suzuki in Vegas, so I'm curious who it'll be. Have to figure it'll be Takahashi or Naito; no way NJPW lets ROH blow Cody vs Kenny on a non-PPV, and I have a hard time seeing it be Okada. Not sure anyone else would live up to the sort of hyping he's doing, especially since he'll have Suzuki around the same time. ROH/NJPW is just so much better than the E right now, it isn't even funny. Being The Elite is more entertaining and better storytelling in 10min than any WWE show in any given week.

If that's on the outside of his 90 days, it could totally be him. Highlight of SmackDown last night: middle of Shane's promo, he pauses, a guy in the crowd yells "FUCK!" and you can clearly hear some people yell back "THE REVIVAL!" Take that, WWE stooges! Now just give us back Hangman, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWE "took away Cody's last name, Cody's catchphrase, and the Bucks' catchphrase," so now they're taking people too. It's a fun bit. Looking forward to this weekend to see where they'll take it.

AtariLegend Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 If WWE signed Hangman Page and Chase Owens, it'd be a big plus for NJPW. Both are only there to be the 8th man in a multi-man tag match at the start of the show to take the pin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll watch the Elite, Marty, Cody (I know you don't like him Atari), and GoD work anyone, but Owens, Page, and Takahashi do nothing for me. I like Fale as the enforcer haracter for the group, but not interested at all when he works a match. Intrigued to see what's going to happen with Leo Tonga. His brothers are a couple of my favorite workers out there right now, so hoping he'll slot in and work well with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretendertothethrone Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Miz makes a good intercontinental champion. Would you guys rather see Miz (c) vs. Daniel Bryan or Daniel Bryan vs. Batista? I'd pick the former. D-Bry wins via quick small package after Miz is distracted by a kiss from Maryse. Really though, does anybody here play Extreme Warfare Revenge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlslash Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 This is wild. Either they're kayfabing really well, or Hangman Page might actually be headed to Orlando... https://mobile.twitter.com/NickJacksonYB/status/906904646530121728 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pretendertothethrone Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 (edited) I don't have the time to demonstrate with action figures but I have a finishing move in my head thats hard to explain. I call it the Inverted Powerbomb (working title). You grab them like a reverse DDT, bend them like dragon sleeper, put your legs between their head and pick them up like a tombstone and keep lifting and plant them on their belly/chest powerbomb style with a different landing.

WWE own the Morrison and Nitro names. AAA/Lucha Underground owns the Mundo name, and is incredibly catty about how their IP can be used. For instance, I believe their talent are not allowed to work with Crash talent on Impact while using AAA names. In other words, Impact couldn't do Morrison vs Low Ki with him as Johnny Mundo because Low Ki comes with Konan, founder and head of Crash Lucha. Wrestling promotions are fucking dumb when it comes to this stuff (Broken Hardy saga, WWE C&Ding the Young Bucks, etc), and "Johnny Impact" is just about the dumbest fucking name on the planet, but I think at least on some level it's a rib on the fact that his name is constantly changing so that each new promotion can "own" him, so it being obvious and stupid is sort of the joke/point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreblack Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I almost don't want to watch the MYC finale because I feel they're gonna put Shayna over, or even have her kick out of Kairi's elbow, to further rise the Rousey 4 horsewomen's stock.

luciusfunk Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Happy with the MYC finale. I expected that from the beginning. I think Toni Storm and Piper Niven was my favorite match of the tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luciusfunk Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Deputy Dango was on Superstar Ink showing off his tats. He didn't discuss it, but you can see his Axl Rose tattoo. I remember a post on here years ago showing him at an airport in shorts and people noticed he had an Axl tattoo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
