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

I'd like to see Lesnar make a return. They are low on star power and HHH is very protective of his NXT talent saying in yhe NXT London press conference that he isn't willing to bring someone up to cover a slot like a band aid till the guy returns then just to be pushed aside.

I'm very surprised I'm saying this after all the backstage gossip around HHH, The Kliq and DX but I think WWE will do really well under HHH. He seems to get what wrestling in 2015 is as opposed to VKM who seems to be going backwards and "suffering succotash" we've started getting the cartoon characters from the 80's back.

I also see HHH building around multiple people rather than one person being his star then having everyone else rotate under that person. He had Rollins first, then he left and he had neville, then he left, then he had Zayn, then he left(kinda), then he had Owens, then he left, then he had Balor, then he will leave and probably Apollo Crews or even Corbin wil fill that void. Let's be honest if that was WWE they'd be out of believable main Eventers after Zayn. Just look now Cena and Orton are out, lesner is on a sabbatical and we have 2 mid/upper mid carders main eventing a PPV. No offence to either but Reigns isn't ready and Sheamus has been given the mini push too many times to take seriously.

I really feel like losses should mean more than they do. At the moment it's "oh I lost, never mind, who's next to feud with". What happened to the best of 5 because both guys just can't stand to lose that badly or because the one guy got so close all 4 times but just couldn't make it. The last time I really remember that happening was Cesaro Vs Zayn in NXT. Zayn wanted it so badly but just couldn't get that 1, 2, 3 on Cesaro and it was beating him up inside so badly that he just had to go again. I also think that they habe so much more in ring freedom in nxt to actually try different things and mold their own character rather than it all being planned to every move in the WWE Style. "Beat down, hold by heel ad break, come back, build momentum, stop hold by heel, build again, face hits finisher, 1, 2, 3 "Vintage 'face guys name'" (Michael Cole) "he never gives up"
 
Looks like Reigns has lost it. He 🤬 HHH until he needed a ambulance. Finally! We need that Reigns. The one who is a badass not a Cena wannabe. So guys, what can you say about Reigns attacking HHH? For me it's like a payback of what HHH did to Reigns.
 
And how can we not forget what Orton did to Rollins?

If we compared to the 2, I'd say Reigns brutally took out HHH.
 
I reckon Orton's attack on Christian in the 2011 Money in the Bank was better than both of those 2.
 
Thought the whole Reigns attacking Triple H thing was actually a bit strange, Triple H hasn't come down hard on Reigns like he did with Bryan and Reigns has had plenty of title matches, he hasn't got the job done, or maybe they don't think its his time yet....

PPV last night was very average IMO with nothing really news worthy apart from our new IC Champ, the opening ladder match was really and that spot with Kalisto was insane!, Tables match and the main event were good but the rest very, very meh.
 
Speaking of kalisto

After watching RAW, the only thing I can say is....congratulations to Reigns winning the WWEWHC title. Now we just need Usos to win the Tag Team titles and we have a championship stable.
 
Great end to the show, congrats to Roman, he deserves it and the time is right for him 👍
 
I still feel this is to early for him but with a lack of Star Power, I guess WWE can't give it to anyone else.
 
Had a good day today just catching up on NXT including the Takeover show last night, really enjoyed it, it was a great show and the crowd was amazing!

As I've previously said, I've always been indifferent toward Roman but if the option is between him and Sheamus then I'll go with Roman every single time.

I feel that's exactly why they put the strap on Sheamus even if it was only on an interim basis, and that combined with the Roman vs. Authority angle which was then compounded with Vince was a really... inorganic way to get him over. It worked but it was awfully inorganic. :lol:

I can write out the best way I think Roman could have gotten over in an organic fashion, but what's done is done.

They were brilliant and some of the chants they had were fantastic, have to admit that the show wasn't quite as good as some of the other Takeover events recently but it was still a great show 👍

I heard they were changing the names of songs and singing it to the wrestlers haha. Give us a WM!!! If the NXT event was 6 months later I would have gone but I was skint when they came out.
 
They gave Asuka, Enzo & Cass, Balor and Bayley amazing receptions when they had their walk-ons, they were chanting the DJ Otzi song Hey Baby to Bayley but they changed it so it went 'Heeeeeeyyyyyy Hey Bayley, oh ah, I wanna know if you'll be my girl' as her match started :lol:
 
Watching NXT Takeover now. I hope it's as good as you guys say it is. But then again, all the NXT events have surpassed my exceptions.
 
What's really funny about NXT Takeover when two Adams of WhatCulture staged a live concert outside the arena where one of the Adams sang some wrestler theme songs.
 
Crowd was on it! I'm surprised they didn't get muted through the Corbin vs Crews match when they were chanting "you're 🤬 and you know you are" to Corbin.
 
Slammy Awards on Raw tomorrow, you can vote for all the winners on the website and on the app, Seth Rollins rumoured to be making an appearance too...
