Rowand44

Once again not as invested in the characters but Ospray-Ricochet might be the best match I've ever seen, not an exaggeration either.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 2, 2016 -> 09:57 AM) Wh at other shows you going to? Seems like the most stacked indie weekend ever. Though yeah going to be hard to top NXT. Going to the Evolve show in an hr. It's stacked so it'll be super fun but you're not as invested in the characters obviously so it's different. Besides that just mania and raw, met some people and talked our way into some crazy tailgate for tomorrow too.

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 10:57 PM) Rowand needs a nap and a hug. Them putting the Bayley match after Zayn-Nak was mean, I was legit exhausted ha. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 11:49 PM) Me? Not sure what the hell this was supposed to mean ha. But ya, last night was incredible, crowd was incredible, everything was super fun, I have no clue how the rest of the shows I'm going to this weekend can come close to that.

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 10:49 PM) I'd guess during summer. This Asuka program isn't over. Guy on Twitter said the little Bayley super fan was out of control and her parents had to take her out of the arena, she was so upset. Bobby Roode! Me?

Off to Dallas. I absolutely could not be more excited for tonight.

That's the political answer from H. Cena moved the needle, Roman hasn't so far. In other news, it sounds like the stupid butterfly belt will be gonezo on raw. Thank Jebus.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 30, 2016 -> 08:32 AM) Cesaro is scheduled for the post Mania house shows. Maybe a surprise return in Battle royal to win again? I dunno. Can help new day since they're a man down. The other guys are an embarrassment to the rest of the world yada yada yada.

Sounds like we might get a debut and/or return at mania. I'm guessing the debut would be the bullet club and the return would be Cesaro if either happen. I'd certainly be ecstatic to see either.

I'll always 'love' Hawk but I believe he sucks at his job now a days and I'm ready for him to go away.

That's hilarious if they actually believed that. She's awful at literally everything and until she becomes even acceptable at something everyone is going to hate her. The fact that Bayley got a solid match out of her a few months ago might be the most impressive feat in the history of wrestling.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Mar 28, 2016 -> 04:55 PM) Not the story you're looking for, but Progress and RevPro has joined EVOLVE in hosting qualifying matches for the cruiserweight tourney. Zach Sabre Jr. (Vs Nakamura for those who wanna get familiar) Will Ospreay Marty Scrull (vs Ospreay) https://youtu.be/kc5-HspzRLs Those are names to keep an eye on. Scrull isn't great but he's a good character. It's pretty awesome how they're doing these qualifying matches and pretty crazy too. Good stuff.

Yup, they planned this perfectly around my vacation. Thanks and take that, Mike!

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 27, 2016 -> 08:56 AM) Yeah, cuz your friends Besties.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 26, 2016 -> 10:32 PM) Could have just called the travel on him Not a travel though. He didn't do much yesterday but happy for Brunson, hope they win this thing.

Him losing to Hunter for no reason is what really buried the angle completely. Had their hottest story in years and had no clue what to do with it. The pipe bomb, contract signing and ppv were all incredible though.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 26, 2016 -> 08:40 PM) YES

Ya The Punisher kicked all sorts of ass. What an awesome f***in season.

QUOTE (shipps @ Mar 25, 2016 -> 12:36 PM) Tony and Rowand44 will be delighted to know that there are literally Cubs in the field at MaddonLand. LOL I really don't get mad with all their shennanigans it just seems like so much over kill of trying to lighten the mood. I'm going to bring a baby bear to your work one day for you to hang out with!

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 25, 2016 -> 04:06 PM) :) You're the first person I thought of when I saw that. That's kind of sad ha.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 24, 2016 -> 02:58 PM) Rodon has some of the best pure stuff in baseball. He was a surefire #1 pick before his draft year started and a couple of teams over thought things. He has a ceiling of a workhorse version of Chris Sale. I like Fulmer a lot, but he is no where near that league in terms of ceiling. Such a thing does not exist.

Can't Gawker and Hogan both just go away?

Danks, Avi and Davidson are going to be absolute monsters this year!

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Mar 23, 2016 -> 01:47 PM) It's a matter of what people have become used to. People are used to the Marvel tone and formula, it has conditioned them. After BvS ended, at least 30 people stayed after the credits waiting for a post credits scene, when DC has repeatedly said they won't do that in their films. The Marvel films have conditioned them to do that. People are used to going to the theater to watch a CBM and having the Marvel experience. They've been releasing at least two movies a year since 2008 and have dominated the market with their films. And let's not act like DC hasn't had good movies. Superman 1+2, Batman, Batman Returns and Forever, The Dark Knight Trilogy. They had good movies. Yes they had missed but Marvel has had some too. Let's not forget that. So all these movie critics who are paid for this stuff are just conditioned to not like these movies? Amazing how the Marvel stuff was able to get around that after Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy conditioned everyone to want the darker movies. I also don't think anyone has ever said DC hasn't had good movies or that all of Marvel's stuff has been perfect but the way you defend some of the recent DC stuff is just bizarre.

Nobody cares if these movies are lighthearted or dark it's just if they're good or bad. For the most part Marvel movies have been good and DC not so much, not much else to it.

Speaking of NXT, Emma is back. Her Evil Emma character has been fantastic so let's see how bad they screw her up this time.
