2. Keep content related to wrestling.

3. Spoilers.

Do not spoil events for people. If an event is going on, please keep discussion contained to the/a discussion thread for 24h after the event. Do not post spoilers in titles during this period.

4. Vague/Editorialized Title.

Please keep the titles of any articles you post clear, understandable, and indicative of what the article states within. It's ok to alter the title if the original is clickbait and confusing, or contains a spoiler like a debut that just occurred that day, but do not add your own thoughts to it.

Please do not post any pornographic, 'creep shot', or similar adult-related material to the community (regardless of connection to wrestling). Wrestling content that involves sexualized content (in storylines/matches/promos) is fine, as well as photo's wrestlers post to their own social medias.

Here’s how I described the ME from last night to my wife without knowing any of the context bc I don’t watch WWE:

“Roman Reigns and CM Punk are bickering over custody of their dad, Paul Heyman. Rollins is just kind of there but he’s great so it’s okay. The match ended when Paul gave Punk a chair and said to Roman “i’m not your real dad”. Then psyche, he hits Punk in the balls. “Roman, you’re my favorite son” and gives him the chair. Then right when Roman was going to hit Punk, “double-psyche Seth is my one true son!” And then Seth won becoming the best son and saving us from a CM Punk WrestleMania victory. Seth is best boy.”

I mean that's pretty accurate not gonna lie..

The report going around about removing Bayley, being attributed to PWInsider but I don't have Elite and can't say for sure...

TitleBecky Lynch will take her place.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Must be in Logan Paul's contract that the WWE announce team verbally fellates him every time he comes out.

People just don't like him because they are jealous. WTF?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

The opening triple threat was match of the night. Bianca, Rhea, and Iyo put on a hell of a show and the right person won.

The main event was bad, and I thought Cena and Cody didn’t have much in the way of chemistry. At least we got a spectacular main event last night, I guess.

I hope that this is the last time we see Travis Scott in a wrestling ring. That goes for Logan Paul too.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I would say the opening triple threat was the best match of the weekend but overall night 2 wasn't as good as night 1.

Travis Scott might be popular, but I very much dislike his participation in WWE, I don't care if Triple H thinks it's cool and that these celebs come to WWE because they love it, I don't love it, sadly Triple H made it clear in the post-Mania show that this isn't ending, comparing Scott to Bad Bunny and Jellyroll who love this shit and they want them around.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

From what I've read (and who knows if its true obviously) Rock was still trying to get something going to appear on the card for one of his ego moments but didn't get his way and opt'd not to make an appearance, so if true (and depending when he decided it didn't work for him, brother) that may explain why Scott was there: That was supposed to be a 'Rock shows up' moment and his entourage from last time (that twat with the shitty belt..no not Rock, Travis) was there this time as well cause why not, but ended up just having to go alone cause Rock didn't wanna.

Who knows.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

lol, sounds so on point. Oh no everybody hated this, I don't want to take the blame so I'm just not coming.

I still think he only came back last year to try and turn the public opinion of him around after allegedly trying to strong arm his way into control of DC movies.

One of the best Mania moments of Night 2. Triple H in the post-Mania show said what we all know, he said he told Joe to enjoy this one because in the ones to come there'll be more pressure or something along those lines, WWE wants him wants him.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

For sure, and I can't blame him when he goes! Been a long road since WCPW and the like lol.

The card for tonight's show will be:

WWE Women's World Title Triple Threat Match IYO SKY (c) vs. Rhea Ripley vs. Bianca Belair

Please let Iyo win, I like Rhea but her character is kind of worn out for me, and as much as I like Bianca, I like IYO more.

Singles Match Randy Orton vs. TBA

Unless it's some big surprise, quick and easy Randy gets the pin stuff.

WWE Women's Tag Team Title Match The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez) (c) vs. ??? & Lyra Valkyria

I don't know why Bayley was removed, but this is some bullshit if it's not for medical reasons. Anyway, some kind of miscommunication and we have new Champions maybe. The Bayley removal just throws me here.

Sin City Street Fight Drew McIntyre vs. Damian Priest

Barn Burner, beat him like a government mule, slobberknocker stuff here. Or I'm hoping. Both really need this win, Damian more than Drew, but I'm good with either winning if they deliver the goods here.

Singles Match AJ Styles vs. Logan Paul

Poor AJ, in his twilight and most likely putting over internet celebs because WWE wants likes. I'd go AJ, but WWE loves the online stuff with Paul.

WWE Intercontinental Title Fatal Four Way Match Bron Breakker (c) vs. Finn Balor vs. Penta vs. Dominik Mysterio

Not a big fan of multi-person matches for titles, but I'm hoping for Bron to retain into a longer Penta program. Dom and Finn are on their own collision course and I'm expecting that to continue or really break out here.

WWE Title / WWE Universal Title Match Cody Rhodes (c) vs. John Cena

John Cena's heel turn has sucked, The Rock has ninja vanished, and Cody Rhodes has been looking weak. Horrible. I'd like John Cena to win just to fuck with Ric, but I think they leave it on Cody because otherwise he is the chump.

Cena winning would make his retirement tour mean more though, who is going to beat John Cena for the WWE Championship or can he retire with it... just makes a more interesting story.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

God I just watched AJ Styles count the lights for Logan Paul I want a refund on this PPV I pirated.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

OH HOLY FUCK GUYS TRAVIS SCOTT IS HERE!

FUCK!

TRAVIS SCOTT!!

So anyway anyone want some nuggies? Dino shaped.

41?! My god. I have been enduring this long Hulkamania for too long.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Jesus don't bring Hulk into this we dont need them wheeling him back out to pimp his shitty beer again lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I'd forget if I could, brother.
