(+) Yeah! (+)

That's not as bad imo. Like it's stupid but you can at least use the sorta roll through logic that often happens with cross bodies-- it's not straight up no selling a move that should end a last man standing match.
---

Pac and ricochet went to Dragon gate and that helped them stop being this level of dumb.

Lio Rush is skipping DG and going straight to nxt

Do you have faith in the PC?
---

PC will teach him a formula that he will follow

It's not going to help the core problem though so he'll never be very good coming from there imo

Is there any cure for this horrible disease?
---

Just looked it up to confirm my earlier statement, and yes, Jinder's loss to Orton last night was his first televised loss since losing to Mojo Rawley on SmackDown back in April.

Not bad for a guy who used to hardly appear on Raw/SD, let alone win on either show.
---

Baron Corbin's new theme sucks. I miss the way the old one built up and revved early. Got me HYPE
---

It didn't get me hyped because it meant that Baron Corbin was coming out.
---

His new theme is a joke. And my guess is he probably won't do the cool lighting thing on his entrance anymore either.
---

It took him forever not to look like he was about to wet himself with the light too!

I just heard Corbin's new theme. On the scale of Jordan Trumpets and Big Ass, it's in the middle. Better than Cass's first theme, but still close to ass.

these guys made Rising Sun, Glorious Domination, and Power of Love. You would think CFO$ have some rejected song in their backlog that would blow this away.

Didn't they make THEY DON'T WANT NONE too?

No excuse.

The same thing happens whenever he talks about top draws. Then he has to remind people that wrestling exists beyond the US post 1985.

Here you can see the true top Championship
---

The John Cena Championship is pretty prestigious.
---

Does that mean Baron Corbin is gonna cash in and become the new John Cena?
---

Cena in the Bank
---

And remember, John Cena is a title or a championship, but never a belt.

Interesting topic on PWB:

Who are some wrestlers with exactly one great match? I would limit it to singles matches (otherwise like the entire 92 Rumble field qualifies or someone like Mike Knox gets credit for an EC) and popular rather than personal opinion, but whatever criteria you guys wanna use is fine. It's surprisingly hard. My first thought is Umaga at Royal Rumble vs John Cena. Even Warrior had at least 3 excellent singles matches.
---

Without thinking too much, Shane McMahon (vs Angle) comes to mind.
---

Shane/Blackman was good too.

And I feel like he had a good one with X-Pac too.
---

Damien Sandow, vs. Cena cash-in
---

Umaga's had a lot of great matches what the hell is wrong with you. Dude was awesome.
---

Goldberg vs DDP would have been a good answer for 18 years but then he went and had that WM match
---

"Great?"' Really?

Not saying he wasn't talented enough, as he clearly was, but he wasn't given the opportunity very often
---

Well I mean if we're setting the bar for great at Shane/Blackman, Sandow/Cena, or Warrior having had 3, then yeah he had a lot of great matches imo
---

I think Shane/Blackman and whatever the third Warrior match is are reeeeal stretches for being "great," agreed

But I really thought Cena vs Sandow and the two obvious best Warrior matches were indeed great
---

I wouldn't know if Steve Blackman ever had a great match because I've never stayed awake for more than two minutes during one.
---

I actually really liked Blackman's HC Title run. Lot of good matches in there.

And I'm assuming Warrior's two obvious greats are vs Hogan and vs Savage at the manias, and the third one is vs Rude at Summerslam? I don't actually know.

This is hilarious
---

The Mania matches are two yeah, but maybe the second match with Savage at Summerslam 92 isn't as good as I remember
---

It's possible it's that good. I feel like I probably underappreciated that one due to the match with Savage at mania existing.
---

Now that being said I still think Umaga has more than one great match. I remember him having pretty great matches with Jeff Hardy, I feel like there were other matches he's had even with Cena and Punk that were really good too. I'm not sure all of them I'm vaguely remembering are great but yeah.
---

I would say Kofi vs Orton
---

Both Bushwhackers in that mythical 5* match of theirs we only know exists on faith from Dave?
---

There are clips of it

But in general people agree that the Sheepherders were good if you can accept gore in your matches
---

Does harper and ziggler count? it was ladder but it was 1 on 1
---

Harper has had great tags and great solo indie matches, but that's easily his best singles WWE match

You want to go there with Dolph too though?
---

I mean one on one his only other 'great' match may be the one vs Miz and there was lot of interference. And I thought the criteria was 1 on 1 otherwise I wouldnt say Harper becauseof Sheild vs Wyatts
---

What about Sheamus?

Off the top of my head he's had a bunch of good matches, but the only great one I can think of, is the ladder match with JoMo.
---

That's the match that knocks ziggler out of it (assuming we cant count survivor series).

Otherwise his only truly great match was that champion vs champion match he had with Daniel Bryan

Sheamus had that great 2/3 Falls with Bryan and that one amazing match with Big Show out of nowhere
---

Hmm, do MVP and Cody Rhodes have any randomly amazing matches?

I see them as guys who adore getting between 2.5 and 3.5 tier matches.
---

Okada
---

What about Carlito? He had that randomly pretty compelling match with Triple H where he could cheat and Trips couldnt but i dont remember anything else from him thay escaped "decent"
---

I think Booker T might be a good answer

Guy's had a lot of very good matches, but I only recall his matches with Benoit across the years as particularly great. And I doubt all of them are great. Perhaps only one was.

Cody had that great match with Orton to try to keep his job but I'm blanking on any others

Too bad the grocery store brawl with Austin wasn't a match
