It is. It's called TNA

Eorl Crabtree has given Michael Cole a black eye.

Hang on a min.
DB is alone responsible for the SS low buyrate?
So Cena, Punk and Lesnar are faultless then?

I seen that, brilliant!

And some cracking publicity for Rugby League too.

Lesnar's ppv buy rates have been good since his return, hence his extended deal.

I didn't say alone responsible though. I meant he will have been scapegoated for the poor figures.

Cena & Punk looked to have picked up injuries at Leeds show last night

Cena wasn't injured. It's a work that they've used on this tour to get the crowd going. I fell for it big time last night after the 'X' sign went up from the ref.

Punk is pretty banged up from recent reports. He's been wrestling some big guys recently (Ryback, Lesnar, Wyatt's) and it looks like it's taking it's toll on him physically.

Gee, why would wrestling those guys cause him to be injured? Or right, they're green as grass and sloppy as hell.

Agree re Ryback & to an extent Lesnar, but Luke Harper can wrestle pretty well for a big guy who looks like a wild animal. Take a look on Youtube for Claudio Castagnoli VS Brodie Lee.

Luke Harper, ok. But Lesnar has always been sloppy as has Ryback as well as the prototype for both of their characters, Goldberg.

They're dangerous in the ring as they turn up and get pushed to the moon before they're actually ready or capable to wrestle at the top level.

TLC PPV, nothing else to say but

...Even the crowd were chanting boring during the Kofi v Mizz match..

Wasn't brilliant.

But they DID, if just for a moment, acknowledge Chris Benoit existed.

Just watching Rock vs Cena from WM29

Looking back I can't believe how bad this match was

Best "yes" chant ever on this weeks Raw. I swear to god every single person in the arena was doing it

I get the impression that they ended the Wyatt-Bryan connection because it became clear to WWE creative that the 'Universe' were just not going to have it.
Honestly Bryan wasn't going to get any heat even if he had started burning pictures of SCSA in the middle of the ring whilst urinating on a bottle of JR's BBQ sauce.

Wrestling journalists are claiming it was the michigan state yes chant that brought forward him leaving the wyatt family

Bryan with the Wyatt Family is just another example of WWE trying to TELL the fans what they should want instead of giving them what they actually want.

And Batista wins the Royal Rumble, then goes up the ramp flipping off the fans as he goes. What's that sound? Oh yes, it's the audience farting on your product WWE

I'm calling Bryan winning the EC and insta-rejoining the family right now.

Looks like Punk has had enough.....

Or is it a work...........

Stacey Keibler possibly back on my screen?

Oh go on then if you insist.

No, he's walked. I can understand his frustrations. Personally, I've always felt that Punk was a better heel than face, so I can't see why WWE wouldn't place him at #1 heel spot instead of Orton. I mean, I know WHY Orton is where he is, but WWE need to learn their nepotism is going to be the death of them.

That comment was over 2 weeks ago.
At that point no one was sure it's only become crystal clear afterwards.

With regard to Orton the problem is that he doesn't work well as a heel in the PG era. Simply put unless he his terrorizing women in their homes or kicking people in the head he/his character doesn't have enough depth to pull it off.
Then you get him as a face and his nickname of Borton needs no explaining.

It's a shame really because as John Layfield rightly says on commentary if you were to build a WWE superstar from the ground up it WOULD look like Randy Orton but you would just have to add a HUGE amount of personallity.

Elimination Chamber was average.
The chamber match was good to watch but Shield V's The Wyatt's was superb....... Amazing how the audience can get into a match when it is built over a period of time.

Have to ask though.

Is anyone else getting annoyed with the way WWE has started zooming the camera in an out when there is a beat down....... Have only noticed it recently but find it almost making it unwatchable?
