THE WRESTLING THREAD: BROCK LESNAR HAS ENTERED THE CHAT!!!
- Thread starter ArsenalCannon357
- Start date
I'm not interested in seeing another finisher spam fest between Brock/Bobby. No thanks.
Is she suppose to be in this season of "The Mandalorian"?
I'll have a review of the first ROH new era TV show later this evening.
Would help her tremendously. Will TK allow her to do it is another story. Need to end the streak and get the TBS title off of her then send her ass to Japan. Imagine how dominate Jade would be if she developed into a great worker.
If she's willing to do it, why not. Could be a way to tease her and Mercedes as well. Eventually they would have the TBS Champ and the Women's champ square off, and that could be the night Jade returns.
Hobbs grabbed the wrong ladder which was too short so he improvised. He definitely should've grabbed another ladder. The refs also improvised in holding the ladder so Hobbs wouldn't bust his ass. People were going back and forth about this on Twitter. I've seen enough wrestling to know it's not foreign for refs to hold ladders for wrestlers. I've seen it in WWE at some point in time. Overall it didn't ruin the match for me. It was still a fantastic match.
Doesn't make the AEW ladder match video look any less ridiculous....
This doesn't make any sense. Britt and Jamie aren't babyfaces. They're heels who get babyface pops. Britt and Jamie still do interference heel shenanigans in matches. There's no reason to cut Rebel from the group.
She should replace Vicky Guerrero and valet Nyla Rose and Marina Shafir. Instead of removing her they should have had her turn on them to get Saraya and Toni over as heels and Britt and Hayter over more as Faces
The Kayfabe reasoning would be the the brotha built like a brick shit house bitched out the refs into holding the ladder while they pissed themselves as Hobbs stood tall atop the ladder.
That makes 0 sense. She was just a stooge/3rd wheel for Britt anyway. I'm impartial for those yams but still......
The Good And Bad Of ROH new show ....
The Good
Slim J vs. Mark Briscoe (Good opening match. I'm not too familiar with Slim J's work but he showed some solid stuff here. Mark was good as always. Mark Briscoe wins via Jay drilla!)
The Infantry vs. The Kingdom (Pretty much a competitive squash match for Taven and Bennett. They'll definitely be major players in the tag team division when TK decides what he wants to do with the belts.)
Blake Christian vs. Zack Sabre Jr. (Didn't expect to see ZSJ defending the IWGP TV title on this show but I'll take it. I like Christian's work. He's fluid, explosive and technically sound but he's not on ZSJ's level. This was a excellent match. Great counters and solid psychology. ZSJ calls out Bryan Danielson and proclaims that he's the best technical wrestler in the world not Danielson. I would love to see it. They should save it for "Forbidden Door 2".)
Konosuke Takeshita vs. Josh Woods (Banger match. Takeshita over big time with the ROH audience. Dude is just awesome! I don't think he's had a bad match yet. Good work from Woods in this too.)
The Embassy vs Joe Keys, Rex Lawless & LSG (An effective squash match for Brian Cage, Kaun and Toa Liona. All three men work well together and if pushed correctly should be the top heel group in ROH.)
Madison Rayne & Skye Blue vs. The Renegades (Skye Blue has really developed into a solid worker. The fluidity in her movement is there. The transition smoothness is there. The stiffness in her strikes is there. You can tell she understands what she's doing in the ring. She gets it. Only thing really left for her to do is to work on her promos. If she can get that down she has a bright future ahead of her. Could possibly be world champion in the future. I absolutely loved her work in this match and that's the only reason to really watch this match.
The Renegades have potential but they're still too awkward in the ring. They're still thinking too much in the ring about where they need to be position wise on certain spots. it's become too noticeable. A good worker knows where they need to be in the ring on spots where it looks natural. Madison Rayne has always been consistent but nothing really special stands out about her work.)
AR Fox vs. Claudio (Excellent match. Good chemistry between these two. Need to keep Claudio as the champ for awhile.)
The Bad
Rohit Raju vs. Christopher Daniels (Not too familiar with Raji's work but I did like what I saw out of him in this match. He's fast and does everything with intensity. I'm definitely interested in seeing more of his work in the future. On the other hand why is Christopher Daniels still wrestling? I thought he was suppose to retire years ago when they broke up SCU. I definitely don't need to see another Christopher Daniels match in 2023.)
Metalik vs. Ari Daiivari (Metalik is fantastic! WWE completely wasted him. I hope he becomes a main player in ROH. Daiivari on the other hand sucks. His work is as generic as It gets and that's what brought down this match.)
Lady Frost vs. Willow Nightingale (Pretty much a squash match for Willow. Lady Frost has a superb Moonsalt. Wanted to see more out of her in this match. Willow will face Athena next week for the ROH Women's Championship.)
Overall this was a good show. Booking was solid. No silly nonsense on the show. Just straight in ring action. Loved it.

It wouldn't be booked in the first place for various reasons.
To be honest outside of two matches I'm not too excited about this ppv tomorrow. The build has been very weak and it book ends what has been a bad month and a half of booking from TK. Need to hit the reset button after this ppv.
It's gonna be real interesting to see if Mercedes can work a high speed match with AZM. It will be a real test for her.
I watched this week show of AEW Dynamite..It was ok!!..The first match of the show with Orange Cassidy vs Big Bill got good at the end..To be honest, I was hoping that Big Bill would have beat Orange Cassidy and get the belt but you know that TK wasn't going to let that happen!!.. 
...The Casino Ladder Match was damn good!!...I'm glad that Powerhouse Hobbs won and get another shot for a title belt!!..
...The MJF vs Danielson promo was good as well...
Overall, it was a ok show!!..They are preparing for the PPV on this Sunday!!..

I feel you on this!!..They need to show more luv and have Powerhouse Hobbs on Dynamite more!!..
I agree ..This might be the best move for her in her wrestling career!!..Like I always said before, They need to take that belt off of her and reboot her image...
For the passed month AEW has seemed very stale & stagnant. Not a good look for MJF as the top dog. Then you have The Gunns being transition champions for FTR.
Just got finished watching AZM's match against Starlight Kid. A thing of beauty. Even better than the classic they put on last year. The chemistry those two have is next level. Match of the year worthy!
Nobody watching Revolution!!?? Shits been WILD!!!!!!!
