I honestly don't know what to think about these guys... The first time I saw Balor on NXT - I thought WTF is this - this is amazing.

I like the idea of Owens getting the title so fast - if it meant something. General public aside - from a wrestling fan perspective NXT and the titles don't mean much. The only group they brought up correctly was the Shield (this is discounting the NXT / Nexus / Core angle(s)).

I thought the Owens / Cornette feud was pretty amazing in ROH. Owens is just a damn good heel - but he teeters on the Rock heel promos.

The other thing that I was thinking about - is WWE could easily have the WWE Title only show up 6 PPVs a year and be fine. The reason the Lesnar matches look so good is because we don't see him 15 times every month.

However - I think the bane of all WWE (besides it's writing) is the commentary. They don't put over anything of relevance - I can easily watch without them and get the same point. They don't talk about how many times wrestler A has beat wrestler B or etc... they might once or twice a show, but they don't set it up as a competition. WWE is truly entertainment and more circus or gymnastics base rather than suspending the belief that these guys are actually fighting each other.

wwe messes up their own storylines .. last i saw mark henry he was w authority in the ring before being injured .. then he's a face (i think) ???

lesnar breaks hhh hand one week, next he is shaking his hand

no clue on where big show is this week - heel/face?

and alicia fox was doing well those couple of weeks - crazy as a fox .. now a bland diva lost in the mix

No on is commenting about the HOF?

Rhyster66 · 03-28-2015, 08:07 PM

Oh and what are you guys snacking on during WM? Don't know what to get.

For a group of Hall of Famers, these guys are having a tough time talking without a script. I'm sure it's an emotional moment and the butterflies are going crazy, but it makes some of these speeches tough to listen to.

Also, I'm having a ton of playback issues. I missed the beginning, so I tried rewinding to the start, but it keeps cutting and jumping ahead several minutes. I have no idea what part of the feed I'm watching, so I'll have to come back later and watch parts of it again.

CharlieHustle · 03-28-2015, 10:46 PM

Also, I think I heard some "what" chants during the speeches.
People are animals. There's a place for everything and this place isn't it.

gorillaz · 03-28-2015, 11:53 PM

The class this year wasn't as great, sadly. Aside from Nash and Savage, no one really had a BIG need to go into the HOF. I dont deny anyone else's accomplishments and what they've earned but there should have been some other people that should have been in before them.

BoxBreaker72 · 03-29-2015, 12:02 AM

Wasn't impressed with the show at all. They seriously need to limit the time for each as well. Some drag on to the point of becoming uncomfortable to watch.

CharlieHustle · 03-29-2015, 12:04 AM

Yeah, I just finished the HOF and the stream skipped Madusa, Rikishi, and Zbyszko.
Did anyone watch the whole thing? Is it worth going back to watch the ones I missed?

Bushwacker Butch stole the night.
Shawn Michaels induction speech was good.
The rest were bleh.

Yes i did. Madusa talked for like 30 minutes full of crap saying how Bischoff was bad. Blah blah blah. Then Natalya brought out the trash can to pull out the title. Zybysko didn't write a speech so half of his speech was him saying um a lot and resaying some of his words over and over. Rikishi's speech was ok but nothing worth noting. The Usos introduction was them acting like kids saying a bunch of random nonsensical crap. Tatsumi Fujinami couldn't speak english so his was under 5 minutes. I was surprised Luke let Butch talk during most of it with his really raspy voice.

gorillaz · 03-29-2015, 12:13 AM

Anyone else feel bad for Conmor's dad during the speech? You could tell how emptional he was during it.

spookytwinkie · 03-29-2015, 01:16 AM

yea. he looked very pale. thought he was gonna faint but he stuck it out.

i only watched for nash and savage. was cool hearng maduesa mention evan corageous.

bush wackers speech was annoying as #@#@#@#@. one looked like he just came from a tanning salon botox joint, and the other looked like he just eacaped the old folks home.
but i gotta admit it was funny watching piper and hart walk like them.

the savage induction was going good until lanny came out and kept going on an on about the special olympics and such.

arnold was gargling marbles as always so nuttin mised there.

last years was better as a whole. i liked the red carpet show. bc of lita lol.

the ending was cool too. always nice to see hall, nash, and pac and hear tht nwo music hit.

Sauceman · 03-29-2015, 07:15 AM

I actually thought Madusa was great. She seemed down to earth and had some good things to say. The Living Legend started out great, but he lost his train of thought completely. It was endearing, albeit a bit painful after a while. The show absolutely needs to be trimmed down, by the time Nash came up it was like the ship had sailed.

mnvikingstwins · 03-29-2015, 08:48 AM

Any predictions on whether or not Brock hits the ssp?

Not happening we remember what happened the one time.

KandJ · 03-29-2015, 01:22 PM

I think there is a better chance of Kenta hitting the GTS tonight.

Roman would need to be as close to the corner as possible without being under. That's about how far Brock will get.

cdub6238 · 03-29-2015, 02:15 PM

on a side not...did anybody watch the Rock on SNL last night??

have to admit..one of the funniest shows of the year imo lol

sjim8660 · 03-29-2015, 02:23 PM

Something tells me that Brock will either beat Roman clean or Roman will win via interference. Maybe the Rock and Roman both do a heal turn and that results in Roman beating Brock with Rocks help, that in turn will set up Brocks revenge match against the Rock at next WM. That would be the only way Roman beats Brock and it comes off as believable. I kind of think the ladder match has the most potential of being the best match of the night. I would also like to see Seth cash in tonight and Cena loose to Rusev.

Rhyster66 · 03-29-2015, 02:32 PM

Can we not post spoilers like we usually do for other PPVs?

Spoilers? Lol. You mean running discussion on a forum specific to the WWE. Sorry brah, just don't look.

hitman1116 · 03-29-2015, 04:34 PM

Thought Medusa's speech was great.

Thought everything with Connor was just to much for everyone's emotions including Daniel Bryan

Loved seeing the two sets of Stooges on the Preshow
