Does Anyone Watch Wrestling? (WWE, AEW, TNA, NWA, etc)

[Ken]

I guess the Headbangers announced that they are part of Smackdown's tag team tournament. It'll be interesting to see them back.

Mr. Fuji

Mr. Fuji

Not another one. Seriously when are these chain of legends that die/pass away will end?

Mr. Fuji, another great manager. He's on par with Paul Heyman, Paul Bearer, Jim Cornette, Bobby Heenan, etc. Not to mention a good heel manager especially he mostly threw salt powder to face wrestlers during matches.

 

[Ken]

Rip Mr. Fuji

In other news, The Brian Kendrick, Cedric Alexander, Noam Dar, Rich Swann and TJ Perkins have all been added to the Raw roster.

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Well, another legendary heel manager bites the dust, sadly... I dare to say that Fuji paved the way for Japanese wrestlers and managers alike when it comes to the WWE, and he will be recognized for having such a role.

Also;



KO being KO and handing out KO-style answers... Gotta hand it to the guy, he knows how play the douche heel card very well.

 

[NW48]

Isn't KO just the best?

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Isn't KO just the best?

Well, when he talks, people tend to listen. He's pretty good at insulting you and still making you want to listen to those insults. And in some cases he doesn't even need to say those things to a fellow heel (Rollins) in a match with three heel wrestlers (yes I'm counting Reigns as a heel for obvious reasons), but hey, mock the bugger while he's at it!

 

[MUSC4EVER]

A rematch between Lesnar and Orton has just been announced for a live event on Saturday September 24th (isn't that the Raw PPV Clash of Champions??), whats interesting about this is that its not the WWE making this announcement its actually the Allstate Arena in Chicago where the event will take place, other matches on the card are a Tag Title match between New Day and Gallows & Anderson and a street fight for the US title between Rusev and Reigns.

 

[Com Fox]

Clash of the Champions is Sunday isn't?

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Its sometime in late September yeah, don't know what this is all about...

...Also Kevin Owens for the Universal Title tonight, make it happen WWE!

 

[Ken]

I'm routing for Big Cass. I think he would make a great champion. His mic skills are great. His presence........ Okay I can't do it. I'm laughing to hard.

 

[Darla Starch]

Spoiler

So...uh...anyone called Owens winning via Triple H shenanigans?

No, I think that caught everybody off guard.

 

[Terronium-12]

I'll ask the same thing I did when Balor won: Is this still WWE I'm watching? Wow.

 

[Ken]

I feel the same way. I even liked the fact that they sold Big Cass as well as they did. It took all three teaming up to get him out.

 

[NinjaEvo]

The right man won, simple as. #LiveEvil

Whenever I see him all I think of is Test, and while that's certainly a great thing I just hope he doesn't steadily fall down the ladder. The worst thing they could possibly do right now is split him from Enzo. They're just money together, there's no other way around it right now.

That's twice I've been caught by surprise. With everything so readily 'out there' that's something that's genuinely great when it happens.

 

[Com Fox]

Kevin Owens winning made me so happy

Though mixed feelings on HHH shenanigans, fantastic heelish way to win but kind of ruins KO character on being the lone 🤬 villain.

 

[Ken]

Whenever I see him all I think of is Test

You're not the only one. I've heard a lot people make that comparison. Myself included. They are lot similarities, including the hot girlfriend.

The worst thing they could possibly do right now is split him from Enzo.

They won't. Why? You said it best.

They're just money together, there's no other way around it right now

KO character on being the lone 🤬 villain.

But didn't they do that already by taking him with Jericho?

 

[girabyt3]

Am I the only one who thinks WWE doesn't know what to do with Nia?? -.-

 

[NinjaEvo]

Am I the only one who thinks WWE doesn't know what to do with Nia?? -.-

No mate, you're not. They should've left her down in developmental, given her a run on top with the NXT Women's Title to let her improve and try to package her as a killer. It didn't help that they called her up before she found her voice and even her finish. I'd bet you won't see that finish done that way again due to how close it was to the AA. Cena bitched about a Burning Hammer being like the AA so that monstrosity there is bound to go.

 

[NW48]

Holy 🤬 !! That was booking brilliance!! That was amazing! I can't remember ever being that into something that happened in wrestling. Even during the Punk era, just wow. Kevin sold that amazingly too!

You have a point there

 

[girabyt3]

Enzo is me everytime someone I admire gets a chance!!



And, you forgot as well FINALLY Seth Trollins got the KARMA he deserved!! . Thanks Hunter!!

 

[Stephan]

Sooooo, did we just witnessed a double turn or did Seth turn face?

Whenever I see him all I think of is Test, and while that's certainly a great thing I just hope he doesn't steadily fall down the ladder. The worst thing they could possibly do right now is split him from Enzo. They're just money together, there's no other way around it right now.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that Big Cass is like Test. I really hope that he doesn't fall down the ladder. Oh and if they are going to make them split, probably during the next Draft probably they will. By then Enzo and Cass are already popular even if they are not together.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

So i was at work all day so i wasnt able to watch Raw until now.....and i really don't know what else to type!

Kevin Owens Champion?! Brilliant!, best heel in the company by far and he definitely deserves it, but not winning it on his own and have Triple H winning it for him, kinda taints it for me, but i will reserve proper judgement on it until the coming weeks when we learn more about it all and the story-lines.

But i will say it was a superb match, the best on Raw for a long time!, the show overall was great too...

 

[PiotrGT]

I do watch WWE. I'm happy with Owens being a champion but I'm waiting for AJ to win the WWE Championship.

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Well so much for keeping the results spoiled, right people?

But yes, it's shocking that the 'E has gone for this path. They could've just given the title back to Seth and have him feud with Roman or vice-versa and go back to the "Hey these guys were part of the Shield once!" rivalry. But instead they have kickstarted what could be an intriguing plot. Why did Trips attack Seth? His words about him carrying the company on his shoulders since winning the WWE title back at WM32? Trips wanting a proper figure for the Authority and ditching Seth in the process? There are many ways this could go, so let's wait and see which one the 'E picks...

I do watch WWE. I'm happy with Owens being a champion but I'm waiting for AJ to win the WWE Championship.

AJ will get his chance come Backlash... Whether or not he wins the title right away is a completely different story. He's bound to win a major title at some point though, I can say that much.

 

[PiotrGT]

I know, I know, but person above me spoiled it too so I thought I can do it as well.

So I had the opportunity to speak to Marek Brave, who runs the Black & Brave Wrestling Academy with Seth Rollins, yesterday.

Marek was Seth's tag partner and road buddy for many years in the indies, and some of the things he told us were absolutely hilarious and deeply interesting. Of particular interest is the reason he didn't follow Seth into ROH in the late-2000's - injury, changing styles, self doubt, etc.

He was backstage at 'Mania 31, and also had a role during one of the entrances. The man just has a lot to talk about and all of it is fascinating.

I'd say it's my favourite interview from any walk of life thus far, and well worth a listen just for some of the Seth impressions...!
