Board 8 > All-Purpose Wrestling Topic 452: WWE - Who Watches, Even?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Also I have a weird feeling that Chris Daniels vs. Stephen Amell is going to be a great fucking match.

I gotta believe Becky takes the belt at Summerslam to have a quality talent holding it for Evolution. I think they want to do Charlotte vs. Becky with maaaaaybe Asuka thrown in.

Given the rumor is a Becky heel turn she either turns here or AT evolution

So where is raw tonight? Seems like they legit support Roman so I expect WWE will go here often.
---

Clearly they've ramped up on the paid Roman fans
---

Jacksonville, FL
---

So that's why NXT signs every wrestler on Earth.

So that Vince can supply his own crowd of 10,000 people who will cheer for Roman Reigns...

man we're reeeeeeeeeeeeeally stretching the term "legend" here, aren't we?
---

eh, Beth is a hall of famer

Beth is #3 all time for most days as Champion after Trish and Moolah

If we could get a Kate Marsh vs Suicide matchup it might be worth it

I'm all about this

Edit: And now I remember which Life is Strange character Kate Marsh was.

I guess I'm still about it, but man that's dark haha.

so is the rehabilitation tour hoping to be done in time for summerslam, or we waiting till WM for an on-screen appearance?
---

Depends on how much Vince cares about media image

The reinstatement did not go over well, mostly because of Hulks non-apology
---

I'd also love to hear the conversation with his agent...

Can we get a photo op with Obama?
No.
How about Oprah?
No.
Jay-Z?
No.
Lebron James?
No.
Well who IS willing to stand next to me?
I can get you Jameis Winston
The cigarette guy?
Just... shut up and smile for the picture.

8 p.m. 2.83 million viewers

10 p.m. 2.73 million viewers

Down some from last week

Brock and Ronda just being present > No Brock, Ronda wrestling
---

That seems so bizarre. Does Brock's mere presence = ratings that much?
---

Maybe people made the leap that Braun might cash in
---

It probably doesn't help that even if you're all in on Rousey, Ronda vs. Alicia Fox is not a great main event
---

Also yeah people probably expected Braun

This makes a lot more sense. Too bad they won't let Braun near Brock right now.

Holy shit that line by Truth was hilarious.

"Same way everybody else is doing it. I'm gonna pin Carmella!"
---

That match between the New Day and the Bar was awesome.
---

I'm pretty sure R-Truth is like top 5 most over guy on SD right now

Give him the ball who cares if he's 50 he moves like he's 30

yeah it was great.

Is anyone else starting to think that they're actually going to turn Becky heel after Summerslam? It seems like they're kind of building up to that, and I hope they don't. She's one of the more natural faces that they have, and with them not turning others heel that are more natural in that role (Sasha, Roman, Charlotte) instead, why pull the trigger there on someone who works so well as a face?
---

New... Day... ROCKS!
New... Day... ROCKS!
New... Day... ROCKS!

Yep, I'm feelin' the POWAH of POSITIVITAAAAAAAAAAY!

Great match.

Hardcore's Summerslam Interest = +40%

The 99th episode is up. You won't see manly face Sasha Banks and fake tits Charlotte Flair do this.

Just wait until Becky and Bayley are the heels attacking the beloved super faces Charlotte and Sasha

Omega vs Yano deserves all the stars

Itami.... *exhales*

He all but murdered Ali... And I LIKED it.

Interesting to see how this literally blood feud (see Hideo's mouth) develops.

God, I love that brand.
---

Omg heel Miz pronouncing gif as Jiff is too much
---

A heel pronouncing a word correctly imagine that
---

So I just put together that Su Yung is Rich Swanns wife.

Kinda awkward that he got fired for kidnapping her and now they work together over on Impact....

all good heels need a BIT of truth to what they're saying

She forgave him and said that its not who he really is

Take that for what you may

Saw NXT's main event coming.

With that long left on the clock in the show there was only one way it was gonna go much like those Smackdown 7-minute main events involving Bray with the Wyatts at ringside in 2015 but it lead to a significant plot development

Three men with a common goal; The title.

I'm now intrigued in the NA title match. I actually think the title itself is kind of nice, got a 60s Territory feel to it, liek when Verne/Crockett/Cowboy Watts/etc were in business.

And I am sorely tempted to buy a UE t-shirt (Bought the Johnny Wrestling and Naka's original "Strong Style has arrived") last month.

The CM Punk saga continues...

That's a pretty hefty bill for an indy wrestler.

And sounds exactly like the sort of thing Punk would do.

hey thanks!

Yeeeeah, that's pretty shitty of Punk. I get wanting to fight the WWE in this case since they pretty much had this case in the bag. Unfortunately it was drawn out to fleece money from both Punk and Colt, and they would have saved money if they settled. But if a dude says to you that you will pretty much win the case and that your legal fees would be paid entirely, you go for that.

I sincerely doubt that Colt would have still stayed on this case had Punk not said that, but they needed Colt in this case to make it a lock that a jury would vote in their favor.

But yeah, pretty shitty way to treat your best friend.

Most fuckery in life is done to us by the people we call mates.

Can't trust no one bruv

Why do they have to pay if they won the case
