General Wrestling Discussion

woah there kid, Ring Veteran Punk knows what's safe and not, and you'd better listen to him

Remember that time he injured himself in AEW jumping into the crowd during one of his entrances?

And of course the dipshit won't use either painkillers or roids to keep working when he gets hurt because some punk-rock straight edge nonsense is more important to him than actually being a pro-wrestler. I've tried so many times to give Phil the benefit of the doubt but he's just an utter fucking dweeb who takes himself too seriously.

Was Punk being careless when he hit Tonga Loa with the tool box?

Not really. He had solid grasp on it and was pulling the hits to the point they looked like shit and obviously fake on camera. He was clearly holding onto to it so it didn't slip out of his hands like it did against Drew.

 

[I.B. Niggin]

I'd rather them just go back to a few Survivor Series matches and break out the War Games gimmick whenever it's the natural progression to a feud.

 

[ElHijodeDeficienciaCogni]

Perfect character work. Shinsuke activated the poison mist glands, but no one came into range before he could use them so the poison started dripping out of his mouth and he made a face of pain. I really enjoyed how subtle that was.

 

[Neighborhood Janny]

Nakamura's new look and entrance music is dimes. I hope he's able to have a meaningful title run.

 

[Tootsie Bear]

I haven't seen a foot injury like that since Sycho Sid.

he looks like anakin skywalker after killing all the younglings

Between this spot and Edge's spot however many months back, I think we should probably take a break on letting non-cruiserweights do spots off the top of a cage.

I loved Hardcore (and Crash) Holly's royalty-free theme and I don't care who knows it.

If we're talking about wrestler themes with the word "slow" in the title, you can't forget about the GOAT.

 

[Well Intentioned]

Three separate injuries from the men's WarGames match last Saturday just shown on Smackdown. Bronson's broken foot looked nasty as hell. Jimmy's broken toe was a bit gnarly too. Kind of sad that Bronson is now out for the foreseeable future. Hopefully he's back by Mania, but broken feet are a bitch.

What's amazing is that Punk wasn't injured, unless I'm dumb and missed something.

Edge's one was dumb as fuck. He essentially bailed out on whatever move he was trying to do halfway down and tried to land on his feet instead.

A very silly thing for a 30-odd year vet to do. I get that AEW makes the older guys feel like they are getting a second bite of the apple where they get to wrestle how they've always wanted to personally but a 50-something year old is more than likely going to get fucked up by doing that.

Sting had the right mindset in AEW. Nearly all of his matches were tagging with Darby because he'll take the stupid bumps whilst you get your safe shit in from the old days to pop the crowd.

theres apparently going to be another SNME in January, I think if they start having them semi-regularly again it could supplement the PLE cards nicely, especially with all the new titles being introduced

 

[AllieKat]

Maybe it's time to stop doing big spots and using weapons in the match. Was Punk being careless when he hit Tonga Loa with the tool box?

Tonga Loa is a bum, if anything Punk didn't hit him hard enough with it

They've already confirmed it on their website.

yeah, interestingly its a week before the Rumble, so they could put matches on they couldn't fit on the Card (usually theres at most 3 matches other then the Rumbles themselves anyway)

It's like I figured they're going to use them like the old snme where it's basically a free mini ppv

 

[ElHijodeDeficienciaCogni]

[Nicholas II of Russia]

Lolcow Doobus Goobus made this... whatever this is.

Now I know what Jim Cornette feels about some wrestling fans.

 

[WhimsicalTrolli]

Another L for the dirt sheets who said femi was going to the main roster.

In rather shitty news it appears that the neck injury that Chris Bey suffered about a month ago might be a really serious life-changing thing that he is "taking one day at a time".

I know wrestlers shouldn't really put a dollar value on their wellbeing but the fact that it happened on a TNA taping against a dusted as fuck Hardy Boyz makes it even worse.
