That last segment:
Can you shed any light as to why Reigns 'stole' a pin from Bryan, after getting his Arse handed to him for the entire match by way of those 2 evergreen legends, Big Shorane?
Shouldn't the WWE be trying as hard as possible keep both Bryan and Reigns as Babyfaces, rather than making Reigns be a 'ChickenShitUnderdog'?

Just thought of something: Beware the swerve. I've seen that sort of thing set up heel turns not for the guy who dickishly stole the win from his tag-team partner, but for his partner instead.

Considering the fact that Bryan beat Cena clean and then beat the entire Evolution at Wrestlemania, does him beating Lesnar, seems unrealistic or like an overkill?

 

[klunderbunker]

It's still unrealistic given how strong Lesnar has been booked.

 

[Thriller Ant]

Where do you stand on man vs. woman matches, which have become popular again in the indies lately?

 

[klunderbunker]

They're fine but have to be done properly to avoid becoming too absurd.

That wouldn't be an advisable swerve, however. Bryan is too well-liked at this point, and a heel turn for him will take time and need smart booking, something that WWE has failed at in recent times.

However, I do like how it is shaping up, as fans are being made to choose who to root for. I expect Bryan to be the face, and Reigns the heel... but it isn't as clear cut whatwith Reigns being the badass guy again and doing it rather well, I just hope WWE doesn't get lazy and have him link with the Authority. He is better as a Lone Wolf at this point, and it could be a good direction for him, especially is Brock is getting ready to leave.

It might not be advisable but I wouldn't put it past Junior to do it as a big double fingered Stone Cold Salute to the IWC marks.

Hell, it may not be probable or even semi-logical, just bear it in mind as a possibility

Hey!! Any way I can get some predictions from you on the NXT show? Just use a bold sentence for who you think will win.

Murphy/Blake (c) vs. Lucha Dragons
Baron Corbin vs. Bull Dempsey
Hideo Itami vs. Tyler Breeze
Charlotte (c) vs. Bayley vs. Becky Lynch vs. Sasha Banks
Adrian Neville vs. Finn Bálor
Sami Zayn (c) vs. Kevin Owens

Following on from the previous question, and I know you're one busy son of a gun, but do you have any feedback for my thoughts thread regarding my write-ups on wrestling reviews and previews?

Not really as it's hard to give feedback on something like that. You've already covered the main thing I would tell you to do, which is make sure you space your paragraphs out. That seems fine.

I really don't see the same things you see in her. All I see is someone who overacts their gimmick, often at the expense of match quality. I'm predicting that she gets pinned by Bayley or Sasha in that match.

 

[klunderbunker]

She probably will. I'm just a sucker for redheads.

Rikishi in HOF is on par with Koko B Ware, correct?

 

[klunderbunker]

Nah. Rikishi actually won some stuff and had a long career. At least he made a difference in the company.

My friends and I, we all were entertained big time by Rikishi, and I am sure many others were as well. May have mainly been a midcard guy, but as you said, he did make an impact in his time.
I can't quite understand why so many people are criticising him being inducted.

 

[klunderbunker]

I'm not sure either. There are FAR worse picks in there.

 

[Dan Severn's Moustache]

Any life left in Darren Young or do you expect he'll be FE'd sooner rather than later?

 

[klunderbunker]

After what he said today, he's gone. There's no need to keep him around anyway.

I see what you did there and I like it.

 

[Aeon Mathix]

Not really a question but I would love for Taker to stay retired and have Sting go out against Cena next Wrestlemania.

 

[klunderbunker]

I could live with that.

 

[The Fabulous Rougeau's]

Did Sting ever revert back to his original face paint look during his run in TNA?

Do you think we see Sting at any point in the WWE in his original face paint?

 

[klunderbunker]

No but he did wrestle in the old attire once.

Probably yeah.

 

[Fire Marshall Bill]

Biggest missed opportunity for WWE in the last 5 years?

 

[klunderbunker]

The first year of Brock Lesnar.
