the hotel thing seems extra stupid

i suppose one thing wwe have going for them running shows at the pc is most of the talent is at least local, having a look at the last raw and smackdown results only miz, d bry, aj styles and possibly johnny nitro aren't living in or around orlando

nachobro · « **Reply #10321 on:** May 09, 2020, 12:04:38 PM »

dbryan being on smackdown is complete and final proof that the man loves wrestling more than anything else. he has a child and pregnant wife at home and this dude is traveling across the country and quarantining himself just for the chance to work with nakamura/gulak/cesaro in an empty gym

i think it was supposed to be in vegas originally, but now its at "an undisclosed location" aka probably some warehouse in jaxsonville the khans own, same as wwe is doing

curious how mitb is gonna go on sunday. i imagine the mitb match will be some pretaped thing they cut back and forth to between in ring matches, but who knows maybe not. dunno what they'll do for the fiend match either but hopefully something interesting.

I would think AEW could run episodes of Dark/stuff from Jericho cruise/BTE st yle stuff for a while before having to run live shows

That was the original plan. There was dirt sheet reports that they had enough footage to get to the PPV. And they were filming in Georgia at one of their wrestler/coaches gym. Whatever their reason, they decided to start filming again live in the run up to the PPV. What I don't get is how you allow AEW to stay at the same hotel as the UFC guys. The whole idea is to isolate your talent and crew as much as possible. At least WWE from what I understand rented out the entire hotel.

Look how close Vystar Memorial arena and Daily's Place is.

Trent Dole · « **Reply #10331 on:** May 09, 2020, 11:05:02 PM »

I think he was brought back before the covid cuts but yeah MVP is a strange grab for them.

bork · « **Reply #10332 on:** May 09, 2020, 11:55:20 PM »

MVP was hired before RONAMANIA, yeah. Dirt sheets are saying that there's a plan to have MVP start a heel stable, including Apollo Crews, Brendan Vink, and/or Shane Thorne.

Which I guess is happening with the latter two, based on this video.

No idea who those two are- are they good wrasslers?

Tom Seguar is pretty doughy. I mean, are people really taking him seriously, or are they working to get more promotion?

nachobro · « **Reply #10335 on:** May 10, 2020, 12:03:19 PM »

i doubt most are taking it too seriously, its easy promotion imo. like this:

finally got around to watching the first part of the undertaker doc and it's pretty good. i really enjoyed it as a look into his head and the behind the scenes footage but it focusing on WM33 is a depressing setup. dude getting a shot in the knee only a couple hours before going out, jesus.

"i want people leaving wrestlemania talking about the roman reigns/undertaker match"

does include a line about how much taker enjoys banging his wife tho

bork · « **Reply #10338 on:** May 10, 2020, 07:27:27 PM »

Watching MiTB. I see they're continuing to act as if a crowd is there.

It works with R-Truth, though. Just makes him look even more nuts.

bork · « **Reply #10339 on:** May 10, 2020, 07:28:42 PM »

R-Truth is two years older than MVP, but looks 10 years younger.

Hey, and it's only 9:24. Not bad.

Went back and saw that Corbin flung Rey off the roof. No mention of MURDER? LOL.

Read that either Rey or Black was scared to do this spot, so Vince did it himself to show them it was safe.

Why would Bray Wyatt ever wrestle not as The Fiend? This is the same logic as Balor not always wrestling as the Demon when he's nigh invincible and unbeatable when he wears tassles and body paint.

To keep the feud going and stay "fresh" I guess, but it's stupid. With them being able to tape shit right now, why not take advantage of this and have him start as Bray, then transform into the Fiend or something?

Quote from: Stro on May 11, 2020, 10:50:48 AM

I love that the WWE HQ gym is completely unchanged since the mid to late 80s, and the rest of Titan Towers appears to have had no renovations or upgrades beyond logos and pictures on the walls since the Attitude Era. Couldn't be more symbolic for WWE.

Apparently the floor this was mostly taped on is the one floor they did not renovate.

If they could have Brother Love and Doink show up during the match, they could have had Cornette follow it around the whole time bitching about how it was destroying wrasslin

I don't have the editing skillz (makes me want to try!), but would change it so that when AJ opens the door to the Undertaker-themed room, we instead get Corny on a tirade until the door is closed.

nachobro · « **Reply #10371 on:** May 11, 2020, 03:52:54 PM »

so what's actually next for otis? does he get tricked into losing the case to aj or dolph? does he cash in for tag titles? does he give it to mandy to cash in on bayley like a simp?

there's a 0% chance he wins the world title so it has to be something else

Pissy F Benny · « **Reply #10372 on:** May 11, 2020, 03:55:59 PM »

They should strap him brother

nachobro · « **Reply #10373 on:** May 11, 2020, 04:01:37 PM »

how do you even cash in on the fiend?

assuming he wins at the next show ofc

Tripon · « **Reply #10374 on:** May 11, 2020, 04:01:50 PM »

They could have him do something more on his level and cash it on the International Championship or U.S. Title because they're both held by heels, or something really dumb and cash it on the 24/7 title because lol, that title has shown on Smackdown since Nov. around Survivor Series.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #10375 on:** May 11, 2020, 04:44:04 PM »

Otis is either going to waste the briefcase on a tag title shot, not knowing that you can just interrupt a promo to get one of those, who cares, or get tricked into giving the briefcase to Mandy and somehow she'll be able to use it on Bayley or whatever
