*Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

the worse part was the announcer

Tbf, him being crazily confused about countouts was fairly amusing.

May he RIP though. I bet Suzuki murdered him for ****ing up his entrance.

He was being crazy racist with the counting of numbers (and there was no reason for him to be even counting! that's not his job!)

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I'm hating this. This is everything I feared.

 

[Spikey]

God I was so concerned we were gonna get a bunch of 'this is awesome' chants and general crowd hijacking. I think we only had the two? Which hey I'll take.

 

[Spikey]

Ospreay is just a ridiculous wrestler it must be said. Here's hoping I can make it out to Paddington next Sunday

Ah, just clicked. I thought it was confusion/uncertainty but thinking back, yeah, you're right.

 

[Spikey]

Someone in our section picked up on it straight away which made it extremely uncomfortable for the rest of the night

 

[Dan]

Well, anyway, thoughts time.

1. Opener was fun but I couldn't help but think I'd have liked it better if it was both of them in their old tag teams rather than a singles match.
2. Was that Aussie bloke playing a neo-Nazi? Nagata is a hero.
3. Can we randomly jam Eagles into the Super Juniors this year, just because? Was a bit underwhelmed by SANADA, in all honesty.
4. BC + Kenny vs TMDK was fun, but the whole 'Chase gets beaten down' bit went on weirdly long.
5. Disappointing that there weren't any Young Lions for Suzuki to destroy, but I guess Henare was a solid enough stand-in. Hope he murdered the announcer instead. Juice is weird.
6. Impressive that Gambino and Ishii could tell a coherent story with only chops, punches, clotheslines and shoulder blocks for as long as they did. Can see why Gambino is polarising too.
7. Seeing the **** that the Bucks and Ospreay can do live is actually nuts. Cody sucks, but that Brandi rubbish was too far. I'm disappointed at someone genuinely shouting out 'knife pervert' at Jay White.

The gauntlet match sounds amazing so far. Will stop following it on wreddit so I can watch it when I get home.

Kenny calling Cody "the three star saviour" had me wetting myself.

Tama "Cody is right"
Me :-o
Tama "Bullet club is fine"
Me :S

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Tama will most likely be leader and so it should be, really. Been building to that since the G1, in a way.

 

[Athlai]

I like Tama but I don’t see him as a main eventer.

 

[Mike5181]

You could list off a dozen or so wrestlers just from the heavyweight division that are better than Tama Tonga. Him leading the Bullet Club doesn't exactly get them over much.

 

[Athlai]

I would definitely love the Underboss and Tama being the power behind Cody though, sort of like the Horsemen but with Tongans.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I don't think it would be a permanent thing.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

RealHero is gone

 

[Jarquis]

So, Seth freakin’ Rollins

And why isn’t Zayn’s plan just to get KO to touch him and he taps?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Hope Flip is in the Super Jnr's this year.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

****ing Cody, how dare you make me feel emotions!
