its sad how his career ran out of fuel :( he had so much potential but he insisted on doing all those movies for kids
but seriously though f the rock, let me know when mankind or degeneration x comes back then i'll watch :rock
I don't know. He seems to consistently be in at least a movie a year. Sometimes two. He seems to be doing fine career wise. Whether those are great movies or not is a separate question.

His career has been steady and active.
But he was supposed to be the next Arnold.
Instead, he couldn't even surpass Jason Statham in the Action Movie Hierarchy. :-\
(I say that as a Statham fan, even)
The Rock and Samuel L. Jackson were the best thing about The Other Guys.

I thought the movie was going to be about a rivalry between those two superstars, and Wahlberg and Ferrell.

It's weird how things have gotten to the point that having Vince retire and Triple H/Stephanie take over is a GOOD idea now.Yeah, I got 5-10 minutes into a stream of Kuncklehead via Netflx and that was more than enough for me. :yuck

i liked the Marine because almost everywhere he goes ends up exploding.
Yeah, NWO was so awesome.Hogan turning heel at Bash at the Beach blew my 13 year old mind. That was just epic and something nobody would have even guessed.
Sigh, now I'm getting nostalgic.
I remember how desperate WCW got at the end. Eric Bischoff (I believe it was Bischoff) came out during one of the last Nitros and spoiled the major title change of that night's WWF event which was pre-recorded.
I really wish WWE (ugh i hate calling it that) kept WCW and had it be its own separate thing but owned by WWE. Now they act like it doesn't exist.
I guess it's time to get into UFC? Does it have rivalries and storylines?

I'm going to reach through the Internet and beat your dopey ass with a stick for asking such distinguished mentally-challenged questions, himu.
You think MMA fights don't have the "drama" of wrestling? Are you serious?
There are guys in there who literally hate each other, trying to make the other guy their bitch. As you said, "it's real."

So did you guys hear about the latest TNA wrestling PPV disaster? In the...uh..."main event," Jeff Hardy stumbled out on stage, clearly coked up as hell, headed to the ring, and stumbled around some more until Eric Bischoff came out to change his match against Sting to a No-DQ match. Apparently Hardy was so fucked up that the plan was to have a ton of run-ins to "salvage" the match, but Sting didn't want to get hurt, so he ended the match immediately...the whole thing was 90 seconds long. :lolYou think MMA fights don't have the "drama" of wrestling? Are you serious?

I mean the flow of the matches and storylines. In MMA it's over like that...not the case in wrasslin.
Wrestlemania was mostly lame unfortunately.
Wrestlemania was mostly lame unfortunately.
Yeah, it was. I missed the first 45 minutes of the show, but after reading what happened, it didn't feel like I missed much.
Stuff I liked:
-Taker-HHH. The only good match on the card. Should have been the main event.
-JR announcing the last few matches.
-Snooki doing a cartwheel (it shut the entire crowd up :lol)
-The Rock's interference at the end (but the rest of his stuff was lame)
-Austin doing stunners
It was pretty sucktacular overall.
I didn't watch it because I ain't no punk but I heard DMX was there. Did he wrestle?
Edit: Oh and what happened to Golddust? That dude was one of my favorites as a kid.
Randy Orton is the worst. Most people boo Orton not because they love to hate him, ala classic heels like Ric Flair. The type of heat that Orton gets, is similar to X-Pac's, where people just want him off the air because he's so boring.
He spoiled Mankind winning the title. :lol
best things were the Miz video
Holy crap the new Tough Enough is pretty good.
Does Stone Cold stunner everyone that doesn't do what he says?
So I got suckered in and watched Raw last night for the first time in probably 5 or 6 years or whatever, and I'm not very likely to watch again or anything, but I have to say I think they dropped the ball at the end. You could see the crowd's anticipation growing, they were ready to erupt, and when the Rock said he'd fight Cena... in 12 months... they were like "uh, say what?"
...building Building BUILDING... nothing.
So, if I'm someone clinging to the past is TNA the one to watch? From what I understand, it's where the wrestlers I know and love go to die but it's also apparently super shitty.
You guys know wrestling is fake?
The WWE has even gone as far as to have officially changed their name to just "WWE..." in other words, no more "wrestling" in the name. :lol :-\
There's talks of a huge shake-up going on in TNA right now, but everything that goes on there always ends up sucking shit, so who knows.
I'm also in the camp that is growing ever-tired of wrasslin' these days. I pretty much just watch it -or have it on the background- out of habit. It's boring and stale. At least the WWE roster draft is coming up soon and Tough Enough is fun to watch.
Edge and Jericho were easily the best thing about WWE last time I watched a few years back.
I was always big fan of Edge and Christian way back when they started with Gangrel. Amazing athletes and fine wrestlers.
TNA always has interesting ideas, but it always ends up sucking. I get bored watching TNA.
Holy crap the new Tough Enough is pretty good.
I couldn't stand him as a singles wrestler until he started with the Rated R gimmick, and then he really started growing on me. I still don't really care for him as a face, but he's been one of the most entertaining heels in years imo.

lulz. So is cm punk actually leaving the company or is this all a work for him to take a break and then come back later?
Punk wins WWE title, bails on company!(?)
punk isn't done with the company. there's no way they would push him this much if he was leaving. if he was leaving he would have gotten beaten by ADR to put him over. he's just taking some time off.
“@WWEUniverse: It's 12:00 a.m. ... Do you know where your WWE Champion is? #MITB @CMPunk” The champ is...here

TNA is distinguished mentally-challenged and unwatchable.Fixed that for you. Ordering a CM shirt next payday. :rock
CM Punk should have gotten a push long ago, out of all the new wrestlers that came out in the last 5 years he's the one I like. And why the fucking hell does the spinner belt exist? Or even made just Cena exclusive? How the fuck does Vince think people will take the WWE seriously with that shit? :lol
I haven't been following WWE for awhile but why did they bring Punk back so quickly? Bringing him back the very next week after he was supposed to be gone makes it look a lot more scripted. Also, the pop would have been even bigger if his appearance was completely unexpected.
CM punk is listed as 6'1 220lbs but he doesn't look that big in the video.They always exaggerate height and weight stats.
Why is this Bryan kid so popular among the IWC?
Tell me more about Beth PhoenixRoll-ups are like kryptonite to her. She gets beaten by women half her size via them a lot. But she is fucking fantastic in ring, as is her current posse bud Natalya (Neidhart, as in Jim The Anvil's daughter). Wish they'd have her and Nattie have opposing face/heel alignments so there could be an actual good diva's match but alas. Women's WWE is just in a holding pattern until Kharma (Awesome Kong) returns from being preggers anyway. And yeah, all of those champions are fuck awesome.
Kharma (Awesome Kong) returns from being preggersWhat a brave man
D. Brine did cash in early because of Mark's injury. He'll lose it before WM, probably at rumble. Then he'll win it back clean from Orton at WM.
Are any of his matches on youtube?
I don't think the current product could be much better than this. Every single champion is actually talented and entertaining to watch. This is nearly unpossible.
Be warned that the commentary is nigh unbearable.

Cole :yuck
King :-\
Booker :spin :dizzy
One of my fondest WWE moments was when Taz started doing color commentary as part of a feud with Lawler, and bellowing "That's a NAWTHEHN LIGHTS SOO-PLEX, MICHAEL COLE!" after Cole fucked up yet another call.
Hell, I liked Taz even when he settled in to the commentating gig, since he was genuinely enthusiastic about watching other wrestlers do their thing. I remember during one particularly good tag match he broke character a little: "Man, it's great to see these guys working so well together... I mean on their own tag teams, against the others." So cute.
Sure, post Jeff Tardy but not Y2J's fuck awesome nearly silent comeback. ::)(http://i.minus.com/iUVnhKxM7l5DG.gif)
I miss Y2J; he's the 2nd best heel I've seen. Kurt Angle is my favorite heel.he's back!
Raw was super wtf this week.I remember as a kid watching razor ramon and goldust beating each other with show shovels. Good times.
Raw was super wtf this week.
Raw last night was hilarious.It was great up until Kane murders Zack for 20 minutes really shittily.
(http://i.imgur.com/RjpOT.gif)
I think he's embracing the hate or he is really constipated
I think this feud ends with Cena ripping off Kane's mask and wearing it from now on. Then Kane get's shipped back to SD where he finally goes after Henry for putting him in the Hall of Pain.I thought the two were interchangeable and had been used off and on simultaneously but now that you mention it... Machine > Monster for sure.
Another thing I really hate is that they keep calling him the big red monster. What happened to him being the machine?
I'm posting this here because it's wrestling related: http://www.impactwrestling.com/news/item/3324-New-PPV-DVD-Releases-Added-To-IMPACT-on-XBox-Live-Marketplace
TNA really is stuck in the past.
so how can i watch royal rumble tonight. i havent bothered with streams or other stuff in a long time. spindashing get in here, you're in the gaf wrestling thread a lot, how do they do it?
I thought the Rumble was okay. It started out pretty well, but it went downhill after Foley was eliminated. Then it was completely average until the final bit with Sheamus and Jericho (aside from Kofi being awesome). I don't mind Sheamus winning though, it was a surprise and he's pretty good. Although I hope he doesn't win the belt at WrestleMania.
The whole show was pretty lackluster imo. Not even Ziggler/Punk was as good as it should've been, and I thought it made Ziggler look weak. I was also disappointed to see Khali return. Just when I thought he was gone for good. :-\
All in all, I may be watching until Wrestlemania due to tonight. SO MUCH FUN. People bitching now forget about 4-5 years ago when we had fucking shit like the Boogeyman, ECW, Spirit Squad, etc.
Sheamus winning wasn't a complete surprise, but I think out of all of the possible winners (Jericho, Orton, Ziggler, Sheamus, Barrett) he and Barrett were the least likely.
Jericho was the most obvious choice: he made his big return, hyped the Rumble match last Monday, and he'd be a perfect opponent for Punk at Mania.
Orton would've been my second pick since the Rumble was in his home town and because he's right behind Cena as the #2 guy in the company.
Ziggler also could have won since they're trying to push him to the main event right now, but I think Sheamus and Barrett are still mid-card/upper mid-card guys (Sheamus less so).
Every time Kharma's music hits, I think it's the Boogeyman. He was awesome. :'(
TNA PPV was crappyTNA PPV's are at best bove average episodes of Raw, man. Speaking of which R-Truth was the best part of last night's ep with his insane ranting about Hornswoggle and a box of spiders. Also Cena hate reached an all time high with a crowd chant of WE ALL HATE YOU. :lol
I haven't followed this for about 7-8 years, before Cena was a main eventer.Basically, yeah. He's capable of putting on a good match but he's rammed down everyone's throats so much and he's a mediocre at best promo despite being the top guy and thus getting lots of airtime every goddamn week.
I take it he kept getting pushed down people's throats to the point where there was a backlash, and he became the new Hogan/HHH/whoever as a symbol of underserving stars who kept winning and the internet hates him?

This is in no way intended as a troll: You guys talk a lot about how boring wrestling has become, but isn't it possible you've just grown out of it?

I guess I'll just watch TNA then.
/OT
Are there any TNA games out? Are they worthwhile?
I still can't get over how they turned Henry into a coward who's afraid of the Botch Show. Dude was a monster and they threw it all away for the guy that fights celebs at Wrestlemania so he could start a TERRIBLE feud with D.Bryan. Bryan should be in a feud with someone closer to his size that can get mobile. Hell, he could have had a feud with Punk over becoming the undisputed champion. Just something interesting and not cowardly heel, fighting guy bigger than him that can kinda wrestle.
whats with Christians hobo beard and hat?
He was in Malaysia trying to buy slaves again, so he had to disguise himself with a beard.
There was a TNA game released for the 360/PS3/PS2/Wii by Midway. It's supposed to be surprisingly good. The game had some pretty accurate models. Booker T in WWE 12 looks like black Beta Ray Bill (look it up) but in the TNA game he looks exactly as he does in real life.
Southpeak picked up what was left of a PSP version (and the TNA license) after midway died and released it. I'd suspect it isn't very good.
A portion of the team behind the console version was picked up by THQ and developed WWE All Stars. They're currently the new UFC team (their first game will be Undisputed 4, I believe), which is unfortunate because I'd love a WWE game that was less of a sim and more arcadey fun. WWE 12 is a clusterfuck with really difficult AI and confusing controls.
Some kind of Johnny Ace versus Teddy Long match at WM too. Which explains why Orton wasn't in the chamber.
Orton's kind of had a lot of concussion at this point, in the range of 6-8 it's believed. Dude should consider calling it a day but you know that won't happen anytime soon.

Orton wasn't in the chamber because he's out with another concussion. He got it during Raw the Monday before the PPV.
Huh. I was under the impression that wrestlers don't believe that concussions are an issue. Is it WWE policy?
Or is this the "compensation" that TNA wanted for allowing Ric Flair to go to the WWE HoF this year?It's exactly that. Also apparently Cena is trying to get Orton fired.
I've not heard that it's Cena but some big time peopel want Randy outta there and apparently Vince is shocked/pissed at him for still smoking reefer alongside the roidage.Or is this the "compensation" that TNA wanted for allowing Ric Flair to go to the WWE HoF this year?It's exactly that.

the punk/bryan/kane (and aj) feud is pretty entertaining.Punk and D-Bry are the two best reasons to bother tuning in.

The Brock Lesnar return has been a complete waste.
Wrestlings fake lolSo is boxing :lol
Wrestlings fake lol
The HHH match will most likely be worse though, it has HHH in it :lol
Neither guy needs a big win over the other, this feud is senseless and wont do a thing for either (outside of Vince and HHH's ego).
Logical booking for me would have been having Brock go over on Cena in his return and then at Summerslam and thereafter for him to enter into a program with a young star that they see potential in to push for the future. This young guy should go over Bork, then fued for the championship and Bork vs Undertaker at next mania for a nice final payday.

He did okay with the Undertaker, so who knows.QuoteNeither guy needs a big win over the other, this feud is senseless and wont do a thing for either (outside of Vince and HHH's ego).
It's a draw for the WWE and that's about it- both of these guys are essentially working "part time" anyway.QuoteLogical booking for me would have been having Brock go over on Cena in his return and then at Summerslam and thereafter for him to enter into a program with a young star that they see potential in to push for the future.

Logic? In the WWE? :lol
Yeah but one payday aint going to cut it for them, they need stars because Cena certainly wont last forever. Logic in the WWE :'(
AJ has pulled me back into watching wwe every week. goddamnit, wwe.
Bork has a very limited appearance clause though, so any time with HHH is wasted time long term.
Orton is soon to be gone, I have a feeling he'll be a TNA headliner within 2 years.
The AJ stuff is making me forward most of Bryan and Punks segments, guys I actually like. But to be fair it wasnt AJ mostly, it's Kane, he's terrible.
It says a lot about the state of the 'E when the most charismatic wrestler is a woman skipping around and pretending to be crazy.
hey man. gotta get a fix somewhere, and they are the best dealers in town (apart from the smaller feds, but im far too lazy to do iPPV and shit)
I understood like 30% of this thread. And I'm being generous.
tna ppv was fantastic btw
There was a thread where some of us bothered demi to fix the favicon, I think there were highish resolution version in there.
Bor pls :hyper

wrestling suckssays it all really!

nah. Punk's turn happening last night was the correct move. You have everyone tuning in for RAW1000 and see Punk end the show with the turn so they'll tune in next week to see what happens next.
Bryan wasn't being sincere. There was also that brief shot of him talking to what looked like orderlies for the nut house. :lol Notice that went nowhere...Oh man, I forgot that. Would have been epic if he married her only to have the legal right to throw her in the nuthouse then someone (not kane. not punk.) has to fight Brian to save her :lol

Austin just recently had knee surgery and is still on crutches.
Sean Waltman's gut is big enough to make demi horny.
I saw elsewhere that he was filming a movie with Adam Sandler. Who knows. Doesn't matter- he could have appeared in a "live" video. Same with Edge.
Another disappointment was the culmination the Heath Slater vs. older WWE guys "feud." It should have been someone way bigger than Lita. Austin actually would have been perfect here, or this could have been when the Rock came out.

Isn't Bryan actually part of the Smackdown! roster? Maybe they'll just put him in another program with Sheamus, Fella again.
He's been moved to Raw for awhile now. I'm sure he'll lose to Sheamas for a few weeks, then Orton will RKO him onto Superstars until Charlie Sheen shows up to beat him at Wrestlemania.
