A "Where Are They Now" subject...
Man how do I watch this? I see the PW but how do I access the shoot?

Two people I feel bad for... Dolph Ziggler and Wade Barrett...
These two guys were hot heels over the last few years and injury has basically robbed them of their spots. I remember after the failure of Nexus Wade had to crawl his way out with the whole Barrett Barrage gimmick and just when he was getting credible he hurts is elbow and is basically a jobber now. He has a weak finisher and no real gimmick. Same with Ziggler, the concussion from Swagger cost Ziggler his first title run and has him back down the card lower than he's been the last few yrs. Now I assume Ziggler will rise again, maybe WM but there's no doubt if healthy he'd be main eventing SummerSlam and not Del Rio. You could add Swagger to the list too, had a strong showing in the Elimination Chamber, feuded for the title and after a hand injury and a DUI he's...a tag wrestler. Clearly if you're a heel in todays business and you get hurt your push ends and you have to build yourself back up from the midcard all over again.
Mini rant ends here...
I like Barrett's finisher but people have to get beat by it. His forearm smash could be the next Russian Sickle or Lariat but he has to win with it, not just threaten with it.
Dude ended up doing a job on a show where he didn't have a match. They couldn't have found anyone else to get beat up by DB?
Ziggler seems like he gets how he's misused too, as his interviews seem to suggest
He does need to learn how to scale back though. Listen to the veterans, young man.
Looks like a must watch
The Punk/Lesnar feud is exactly what i love about wrestling, and Stephanie's acting is exactly what i hate about it
Punk and Heyman have old school intensity, something most WWE talent is missing.
Is there some kind of connection between CM Punk and Marvel.
Punk's looking like Hugh Jackman and in a recent issue of Uncanny X-Force, Puck and a couple of X-men were restraining Bishop(yeah I was like WTF too, but fam pointed out how he's in the new movie coming out) and Puck calls him CM Punk.

And that's the problem with these ppvs, 98% of the roster don't know how to sell a feud so why should anyone buy the ppv? Im watching SS just for Punk/Lesnar and to see if Orton cashes in on DB if he wins.
Being big into both comics and wrestling, I hadn't heard but I'm sure there are plenty of writers that are wrestling fans and Punk has been a well known comics fan. The whole Punk/Lesnar feud has been called "Hulk vs Wolverine" since the beginning.
There is a connection with Marvel and TNA, specifically Bad Influence-Daniels and Kazarian, who wear a lot of Marvel gear on Impact! and have done interviews in Marvel publications. Plus it was Marvel that helped sell the old 6 sided ring toyset.
I don't think that was a spoiler. I think, and taj can correct me, he was referring to a recent Uncanny X-Force issue and not the current Wolverine movie.
Too many of the talent don't know how to sell it and the writers don't know how to book it.
Even with Punk and Lesnar, they booked it backwards. Instead of Lesnar getting beat up by Punk this week, it should have happened the second time they fought and this week, Lesnar leaves Punk laying for the second time.
And don't get me started on the Del Rio-Christian feud. The only way this isn't the worst booked feud on the card is if ADR wins, otherwise he's just looked like a bitch since winning the title.
With Cena planning on taking time off to let his elbow heal, I fully expect either DB or Orton to walk out of SS with the title. It would be too incredible for DB to beat both Cena and Orton in the same night but if they can have Jericho beat Rock and Austin in the same night, why not DB?
I'm sure this will be in it's own thread but it's a wrestling story and it belongs here
WWE STAR PUBLICLY COMES OUT
by Mike Johnson @ 8:23 AM on 8/15/2013
WWE star Darren Young of the Primetime Players revealed he is gay during an interview with TMZ.com, becoming the first ever professional wrestler to publicly declare he was homosexual while working for a national pro wrestling company.
During the interview, Young was asked whether a gay wrestler could be successful in WWE. Young laughed and said, "Absolutely, look at me," and admitted he was gay and "happy."
In the interview, Young said it didn't think his orientation mattered and asked the interviewer whether it changed the way that the interviewer thought of him.
"I'm happy to be who I am," said Young. "I'm comfortable with myself. I'm happy to be living my dream. I'm happy to be in LA for Summerslam for WWE. To be honest with you, I'm happy with myself. Some people might not like it. Some people will like it, but, I'm here to please myself. I'm here to be happy. It's very important I'm happy with myself."
Young said that he hoped to make a difference for others who might want to come out and said the sexual orientation of others shouldn't matter, but the person they are should be what matters.

As soon as I started reading response in that thread, I decided to GTHO of there and come to the real wrestling thread 
Also never understood how it counts as coming out of the closet, if the closet door was wide opened and we all saw you standing there.

he better not go anywhere near JBL
..come to think of it he did have some issues with orlando jordan
he better not go anywhere near JBL
The gay & lesbian group won't stand for that shit. Th boys in the back are going to be unconfortable and complain to management. WWE dosen't need the bad publicity, D Young will be on the roster till his contract expires.
thank you. and the movie I was referring to is the new Days of Future film coming soon and most know by now that Bishop is going to be seen in that movie(here's hoping he doesn't get a Darwin screw-job
)
I hope Titus gets a strong singles push in the near future. This Darren Young story is getting too much mainstream press.
Anybody up for some SummerSlam predictions?
-John Cena (c) vs. Daniel Bryan
-CM Punk vs. Brock Lesnar (with Paul Heyman)
-Alberto Del Rio (c) vs. Christian
-Cody Rhodes vs. Damien Sandow
-Kane vs. Bray Wyatt
-Dolph Ziggler and Kaitlyn vs. Big E Langston and AJ Lee
-The Shield (c) vs. (open challenge)
-Natalya vs. Brie Bella
-Dean Ambrose (c) vs. Rob Van Dam
-John Cena (c) vs. Daniel Bryan .... I got D. Byran winning clean over Cena
-CM Punk vs. Brock Lesnar (with Paul Heyman) .... Best over Beast, but I could see it going to other way, and I'll be fine either way
-Alberto Del Rio (c) vs. Christian .... Don't know, don't care .... Del Rio, I guess
-Cody Rhodes vs. Damien Sandow .... Cody
-Kane vs. Bray Wyatt .... Bray Watt
-Dolph Ziggler and Kaitlyn vs. Big E Langston and AJ Lee .... I'm always going to roll with AJ
-The Shield (c) vs. (open challenge) .... I see Show and Mark Henry stepping up to challenge the Shield and winning the titles
-Natalya vs. Brie Bella .... Just checked my bank account and what do you know, there's not one single fuck in there for me to give
-Dean Ambrose (c) vs. Rob Van Dam .... I see RVD winning, and the Shield thus losing all the titles in one night

^Just reminded me how much I don't care about Christian.
Jojo be sangin her azz off
WTF .... Del Rio shoulders were on the mat for like a 15 count
That match could have been great if Lesnar would sell a hit. Punk was working his ass off and Lesnar wasn't given much back.
so no cash-ins by Orton or Sandow i assume?
Hell of a fucking match between Lesnar and Punk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Are you out of your mind? That was a 5 star match and both men worked hard in the match. Punk had to work harder that's the whole point, Lesnar is 10x stronger than Punk so Punk would have to do more to inflict damage on him. Do you know how stupid it would've looked if this was a evenly matched contest?
I meant more to the submission moves that CLEARLY weren't applied correctly and didn't look remotely painful, yet Lesnar was still shaking his hand like his was going to tap out 
No way Lesnar taps to Punk and two submission experts fucking up submission moves just looked crazy.

VERY unlikely .... but I'm hoping

are you fucking kidding me !!!!!!!!
