Nash just has it out for the smaller guys, anyone who isn't 6 ft 6 or incredibly jacked is apparently boring to Nash.

Come to think of it Nash kept hogging the World title in my universe mode in WWE 12

[Shenmue18]

TNA was absolutely amazing this week, anyone who likes good wrestling needs to check this week's Impact out.

[Corndawg93]

I keep forgetting to watch it

[Shenmue18]

http://watchwrestling.net/watch-tna-impact-wrestling-91213-surrender/ Here's a link to where you can watch it, I'd say it's the best free TV event of 2013.

I recorded this weeks TNA and last weeks

Hey Gareth, is Bo Dallas heel or something now? I know he's been getting booed, but from what I've been reading it seems he sometimes acts like a heel does now, as opposed to pulling a Cena and just pretending like the boos aren't happening.

[Crokey]

He's in that sort of unique position where he's supposed to be a face and act like a face, yet everybody treats him like a heel, cause he's such a weasily type of guy, so far he's faced Leo Kruger who IS a heel, but he was getting the full face treatment by the crowd, he's been trying to 'mentor' Sami Zayn who is a bona fide face (really the mentoring should be the other way round) but he's being the heel in the situation.

 

So technically he's not a heel as he's not opposed faces, but the boo's aren't Cena like and they've kinda gone beyond X-Pac heat.

[Shenmue18]

Is he bad in the ring, or are the boos not because of his in ring work? X-Pac eventually got pretty over though, even though he was a weasily small guy.

[Crokey]

He's distinctly average, IF he was on the main roster he would be floating somewhere between Superstars, the B-Match on Main Event and the cool down before the Main Event on Raw or Smackdown, he's actually a Creative nightmare because I couldn't see an angle that would actually work

[Corndawg93]

TNA wasn't good

N.O.C tonight. Buildup has been poor for the Bryan and Orton feud. All the heat has been on Trip's and Show. Is this PPV worth purchasing? Had the buiid up been strong, would've had an easy wait for GTA V lol

[Crokey]

The build up has been... well, sh*t to be honest.

 

Most people I know of aren't bothering to buy this one as there has been no glimmer of something special, for the casual fan the build up to Bryan v Orton has been too one sided, for the more dedicated/hardcore fans we know it's been built this way because this is the start of the Bryan v Orton feud so we're not going to get the Bryan pay off this is leading to just yet, aka Bryan's getting screwed again.

 

The Trips/Show angle hopefully might lead to something a bit more logical... which I know that is not right as #WWELogic dictates that logic may as well be thrown out the window. I'm still hoping for return of Shane O'Mac to spice up the angle, other than that the rest of the card is boring. Even the Punk/Heyman angle isn't grabbing me, mainly because of the heatsink that is Curtis Axel, don't get me wrong he's an accomplished wrestler but his mic work is sh*t.

[OliRow]

Should be a good PPV, excited for it.

 

Also f*ck WWE for firing Jim Ross, AGAIN.

[Crokey]

He wasn't fired, he retired.

 

He's focusing on his business interests and he's touring a public speaking tour, talking about his career and stuff, he's also planning on writing his autobiography which would be interesting.

[OliRow]

That's bullsh*t, he was fired for the SummerSlam Axxess 2K14 legends panel thing with Ric Flair, he got blamed for it and WWE fired him for it, Flair would've been fired had he been signed to a contract.

[Crokey]

Yeah, I've been reading those theories and they don't quite add up as it's pointing the finger at Vince firing Ross because of not being able to control Naitch. Thing is Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Dusty Rhodes, Arn Anderson and co and especially Vince have never been able to control Naitch so I don't think that quite adds up.

 

I know Vince has never really liked Ross, mainly because Ross has a better ability to spot guys than Vince has, but if it was firing then Vince would have done something a little more public, either a public dress down or at least a speech on Raw about something (probably the current Bryan/Orton angle) before pulling the trigger behind the curtain and calling it retirement.

[OliRow]

Nah they want to seem like the good guys when in actual fact they're just massive c*nts.

[Boozexlightyearxx]

Tomorrow.

 

Replay storyline will return and Orton will win the title mark my words.

[Corndawg93]

5 man elimination tag survivor series match winner gets the company

 

The Vinny Mac squad

Big Show, Mr Ziggles, D-Bry, Mark Henry and CM Punk

 

Vs

 

The Corporation

Randy Orton, Wade Barrett and the Shield

 

I have a strange feeling that might happen

 

Edit: Wikipedia says D-Bry beat Orton, is that true

Edited September 16, 2013 by billy james

[Boozexlightyearxx]

D-bry won with a fast count.

 

Expect Hunter to give Orton a match tomorrow which RKO wins.

[Crokey]

Well I did not see that coming.

 

As for the fallout, I'm wondering if it was all a work by Triple H AND Daniel Bryan, to get the case off Orton so he can't threaten Daniel Bryan with a cash in again, they'll come out and explain it with the reason that Trips, Steph and Vince have never trusted Orton and didn't want him as the face of the company and only did this to get rid of the threat.

[Shenmue18]

Why the hell did they have their top babyface win by a fast count? Can we not get a CLEAN match just once with a face vs a heel?

[Crokey]

Apparently it's 'part of the plan' whatever that means, they've been silent about the whole fast count thing all day so it's a case of wait and see how they address it on Raw.

[Shenmue18]

I know WWE probably has some "Master Plan" for this storyline, where all the weeks of bullsh*t finishes will pay off, but it's getting annoying never having Raw or a PPV's main event end clean. It's always some controversial finish, which is really annoying with NoC because we pay to see the show, so we deserve legit, clean endings.

[Corndawg93]

The master plan was HHH secretly working with Big Show and D-Bry so they can conspire against Randy Orton, think about it, why did the ref do a fast count against Orton,The ref would be committing career suicide doing that fast count, we all know it was a stupid move but the Ref, D-Bry and HHH all played there part, what did HHH do, announce there was no interference, cause HHH knew The Shield would have ran to the ring to help Orton.

 

This it the beginning of the end for the Shield and Randy Orton, think about why did Stephanie hug Randy, it seemed a bit suspious on why she did

 

THINK ABOUT IT PEOPLE!!!!!

Edited September 16, 2013 by billy james

[Crokey]

I agree, I think it has been work all along to rid Orton of the MITB case, I mean Trips has turned on Orton before, Steph has not had a good history and neither has Vince.

 

The only thing is how they play the next step, as they could risk turning Bryan heel as a result, but it depends on how well or what they do with Orton to ensure that he stays heel and Bryan remains face. Also got to factor in the Rhodes effect as well, they risk trying something complex here I just gotta hope they don't feck it up

 

EDIT: Mickie James has left TNA

 

If the wrestling gods are listening, please make WWE take her back... pweeease.

Daniel Bryan turning heel would make no sense, the guy is so damn over with the crowd that trying to turn him heel, no matter how evil they make his character, is going to backfire miserably. Plus, they'd be losing so much money with how well his T-shirts are selling, while most of the crowd won't turn on him, the casuals and the kids will, so they won't be buying the shirts anymore. Turning him heel is *Triple H voice* bad for business.

Night of Champions was crap, not seen Raw yet, but Night of Champions was crap.

 

It was an average episode of Raw at best, it was truly sad that a Table got the biggest cheer of the night.

 

Also Heyman is the new Peter Griffin, http://www.tout.com/m/rhbp36
