THE WRESTLING THREAD: BROCK LESNAR HAS ENTERED THE CHAT!!!

O.J PIMPSON said:
But Grandberg can't go anymore!! He struggles with the Jackhammer!! He must not lift weights at all to not be able to get these guys up anymore. It's like he rolls out of bed jumps in the ring and gets a payday. He doesn't seem to put the work in leading up to the show. U couldve built the Keith Lee thing up to be big at SummerSlam. This couldve be a no contest brawl with some just as big and talented as Lashley putting up a real fight. Have the do the broken barricade spot all that. But u job lee out to bring in Grandberg, and his 1 move cuz he can't pull the 2nd one off convincingly

I get what you're saying......but I think Vince feeling the pressure from the big networks....Lee ain't gonna cut it if we just being real.

I liked Lee but WWE and the main roster done fucked him. I know its silly but they changed his attire, they cut his facial hair off...he looks like a pervert. :lol: They got him acting weird in the ring....I don't blame him because he was fine in NXT but its someone on the main roster fucking with him just like they fuck with everyone form NXT that goes to the main roster.....Cross been up there one damn day and got fucked over already WITH the NXT title in his hand. :lol: That's some cold ass shit. :lol:

In regards to Goldberg....we gotta remember he 54.....Father Time done came up...hell I'd even bet he trains his ass off all year and just can't go like he use to. They got him trying to lift up big ass Brock and shit? I'll always have a love for these guys for nostalgia purposes so I'm always excited to see them come back but I know the deal lol. Goldberg there to put over Bobby because quite frankly, there's no one left to do it.

I think I read somewhere that he doesn't lift anymore, he just does yoga and MMA training.
Even 20+years ago, he didn't have the best cardio that's why his matches were 10 minutes tops.
His matches now are about 5 minutes at the most.
He's clearly just chasing paychecks at this point.

Shit I can't blame him.....show up 2 or 3 times a year....for a 5 minute match......he ain't taking much of a beating ether.....shit that's great money. :lol:

I know smh…..i wonder if they backed up the brinks truck for a limited schedule would Punk be interested in coming back…

Funny, I was just thinking about that today. I really think CM Punk is done with wrestling.
He already turned down AEW before they even went on the air and he's talked openly about the bad product in both promotions.
He saved up his money and is not a big spender. No ex-wives or child support, so he's good there.
I think he's at peace with the legacy he left behind and he doesn't need the money.

Yeah I can see that. I just wonder though…he hasn’t spoken so bad that it would look crazy…Im shocked he didn’t even look at potentially getting in the business without wrestling….
 
LOL at Grandberg. Really though the WWE should only pull him out on world tours. Build your young talent up and have some parody at the top instead of just a couple of pampered protected picked guys.

To do what? Be a GM? Be a manager? No matter what, he would still be on a bad show. He's called the current product "trash".

"It's trash" - CM Punk on why wrestling fans still watch WWE

For CM Punk, professional wrestling can be related to watching a movie. In the case of WWE? It's a terrible movie.

I’m saying shocked he didn’t even do smaller stuff like ROH or some shit. He seems to enjoy the indys.

What's the point of coming back to be on a show that hardly anyone watches?
Even if he did go there, the TV ratings would still be a fraction of the AEW or WWE ratings.

I’m not saying he should do it….I’m saying I’m shocked he didn’t….he strikes me as a guy that would do it just for the love. Same guy that got his ass whooped in UFC and didn’t do it for the money.
 
Who else thinks the Kofi Money in the Bank squash match was just a way to shut up fans like me that compare Kofi's match to Daniel Bryan and Seth Rollns matches against Brock Lesnar?

If AEW manages to get Punk and Bryan, Vince CAC ass might kick the bucket.

I don’t see Punk in AEW. Punk is coming back for the money and storyline.

WWE offers the best of both worlds. Biggest wrestling company in the world with a Multimedia empire behind it.

Yes, Punk had issues with Triple H, but he has said he had a good relationship with Vince. plus money talks. All the money WWE made and saved this year due to cuts will loosen up funds for his return.

I see Punk showing up post SummerSlam and Challenging Roman.

Yeah, I'm sure Punk is just itchin' to do the same exact storyline they're running with John Cena right now and right after he does it.

That's gotta be better than Punk vs. Omega/Hangman/Black/Mox/Miro/Pentagon/Andrade/Cody/MJF/Kingston/Starks and possibly Bryan Danielson, or a reunion with Luke Gallows, or a squashing of beef with Colt Cabana, or having the freedom to wrestle just about anywhere else.

Exactly. Better matchups and creative freedom in AEW. In WWE after he jobs to Reigns then what? WWE at this point is just living off it's name because it's been around for 50 million years. AEW is the hotter promotion.
 
Big week for AEW

Bryan is allegedly signed by AEW


AEW ratings up 11% last two weeks


AEW officially signs Thunder Rosa


Kiera Hogan leaves Impact (hopefully she brings them cheeks to AEW and joins her GF Diamante)


CM Punk teasing with the Alan Parsons Chicago Bulls theme when he's rumored to pop up when AEW goes to Chicago for All Out in September
