What's you favorite out of the old territories? I'm a Mid-Atlantic guy myself.

 

[klunderbunker]

WWWF of course.

 

[It's...Baylariat!]

So today I learned that Rusev and Lana are dating irl. No way this ends well right?

Especially when she slips up and talks in a normal accent.

What do you think about the following idea for the HIAC match coming up:

Idea 1:

At the beginning of HIAC Triple H comes down and makes Cena vs. Ambrose to be the 2nd last match of the night in hopes to give Rollins the easy win. When the bell rings for Cena vs. Ambrose, Cena does something he has never done, lays down and let Ambrose pin him in 5 seconds (it could be the other way around too but think Ambrose vs. Rollins is a better idea for a Cell match), the Cell match starts and Ambrose gets his revenge.
This way Cena still gets to see Rollins destroyed by Ambrose, a fast one is pulled on The Authority (thus continuing the Cena/Authority storyline) and Ambrose gets his revenge.
Cena willingly gave up his spot in the Cell 2 years ago because he wanted Punk to get destroyed so bad and he thought Ryback would be the better guy to do it, essentially do the same thing but with Ambrose.

Idea 2:

Cena vs. Ambrose has their match as planned. When the cell match starts the winner chains and padlocks the door (assuming its not already done) and the loser of the match comes out from under the ring. The bell rings, Cena and Ambrose destroy Rollins, the whole time The Authority is tries to save Rollins but to no avail. Cena and Ambrose both get their revenge on Rollins.

No on the first one because it's a bait and switch. They told the fans weeks in advance about Cena not being in. You don't want to mess with them like that.

Better but I'd rather see Ambrose destroy him on his own.

Considering the situation I highly doubt any fans would be upset about that.

 

[Alex]

So honestly who do you reckon will finally take down Rusev??

I would. It would get on my nerves.

CEna.

I'm not one to say that Bray Wyatt was "buried", but I was re-watching this year's Royal Rumble, and I believe he was the only one this year to get a clean pin on Daniel Bryan. Shouldn't that have propelled him to the moon? In fact, Bryan never lost via clean pin in 2014.

What killed Bray?

 

[klunderbunker]

The loss to Cena at Wrestlemania. Bray was rising up the card and then his first match against a top level guy (Bryan wasn't quite there yet at the Rumble) sees him get pinned in the middle of the ring.

I have a question about this feud in relation to The Rock's return last night. Remember when Cena mentioned something about the way Wyatt dresses and for the rest of the week there were countless threads about Cena burying The Wyatts via that promo? The Rock did the same thing in a much more brutal way, were Rusev and Lana buried last night? I'm not seeing nearly as much outrage today as I was then.

 

[klunderbunker]

Not at all. Rock praised Rusev and Lana and put them over. Also he didn't beat Rusev. He just hit him a few times and knocked him outside. There's a big difference between that and a clean fall.

I've been trying to think of the best way to ask this without spoiling it because the WWE didn't officially announce it as part of the show, but there are reports they announced it to the live crowd for the Smackdown taping. Since I have the attention span of a five year old on PCP there is no way I can wait until they officially announce it, so spoiler tags.

Spoiler

Reports are that the Rumble will be expanded back to 40 men in 2015. Good idea?

 

[klunderbunker]

Eh I can live with it. It might help, but they need names to fill it in.

 

[Hollywood Naitch]

Eh I can live with it. It might help, but they need names to fill it in.

I'd guess we'll see quite a few NXT guys involved if they do make it to 40. Do you think that would be a good idea.

And which NXT wrestlers would you like to see take part?

My first thought was that they didn't want Alberto del Rio to have the title of winning the biggest Rumble ever anymore.

Think John Morrison was wasted talent and reckon he would have been WWE Champion someday?

Corbin, Zayn, Ascension, Parker just to see him get boed out of the building.

Wouldn't shock me.

With a good amount of tweeking, maybe.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Reckon Tyson Kidd will do well now that he's back on the main roster? Like, winning a title good?

 

[klunderbunker]

I can't imagine it.

Unrelated side note: apparently I have a one year old cousin named Zayn.

Is it somewhat interesting that TNA Hall Of Famers leave sometime after they're inducted (Kurt Angle probably sticking around the longest)

 

[MrHashasheen]

It's 2010, Hogan and Bischoff are coming in to TNA. Word breaks that Taz and Tenay have both been laid off from the commentary team, with new replacements coming in.

Who do you expect Hogan/Bischoff to put in their place and who would you have liked to see?

More sad than anything else.

Tenay can be replaced by a bunch of people. You just need a decent play by play guy who can set up an analyst. As for replacing Taz, pick someone injured on the roster who has credibility and can explain what's going on. Keep it on a rotating basis for awhile until you find someone permanent.

 

[Reflection]

Do you think the 40-men Royal Rumble match will simply be ten more filler competitors, or do you think they will use the number to do something remarkable this time?

 

[klunderbunker]

I highly doubt remarkable. Fun maybe but not remarkable.
