Board 8 > All-Purpose Wrestling Topic 450: NOBODY READY FOR.... Ellsworth

(+) Yeah! (+)

we had viral things like fandango-ing

then they were all "here you go again clap, dammit"

I hear my boy JUICE finally caught Jay White

Pretty heady title lineage Juice joins there with Kenny and Jay
---

G1 Special was really top heavy

Hiromu vs Lee and Switchblade vs Juice were both AMAZING, and that was quite the unexpected angle to end the show, but the rest was just average.
---

Also always fun to see JR get wiped out
---

Also always fun to see Haku laying waste to the IWGP Champion
---

Oh no, Hiromu is out with a broken neck
---

Oh jeez, that's awful. I guess it was only a matter of time but yikes.

Brock/Cormier who ya got

Brock was in the octagon for two minutes and managed to push Cormier and nearly take out a cameraman

Brock wins if hes taking it seriously. Cormier is better pound-for-pound, but Lesnar has many more of those pounds. 80-20 odds on Brock

If he just sees it as a payday and wants no business actually being Champion and the promotional work that comes with it, Cormier could win. 55-45 odds on Cormier
---

No chance.

Cormier has been one of the best at what he does for a long time, even as he's gotten older. He just took down Stipe who has been dominant as champion for a good while.

Brock has had one fight in the last how many years, in which he un-convincingly beat Mark Hunt. Literally Mark Hunt.

This is 80-20 Cormier even on Brock's best day at this point in his career.
---

You're actually the first person I've seen who has said Brock has any chance at all, let alone as the favourite.

Most of my friends are UFC people though so they have missed out on Brock's dominant Universal Championship reign.
---

Wrestling skill doesnt fade like other disciplines

If Brock REALLY doesnt want Cormier to take him down, Cornier wont take him down.

I would classify them as equals at wrestling skill, so size wins there.
---

Also dont forget, Brock will take PEDs. <_<
---

Can you imagine if Brock lost to Bobby Lashley but beat Daniel Cormier?
---

Hang on, I thought wrestling was one of the skills that did leave quickest once you stop practicing it regularly.

Why did I watch that

who's getting the PS4 version of FPWW next month for the new NJPW campaign
---

I will never understand doing that move without a bridge.
---

I don't understand it period.

I'm totally distraught right now. Hiromu is easily my second fave since I started watching this year. Watching his rise to the top has been so much fun and he's SO SO GOOD.

This could be a potential career killer and I'm just heartbroken. God damnit.
---

With the bridge it's pretty safe... As professional wrestling moves go, obviously.

It's the throw that's boneheaded, especially from a low angle. Too much can go wrong, as is clear from Hiromu's injury.

what the fuck was that

I think even with the bridge it looks kinda like a boneheaded move but yeah what were they thinking.
---

Looks like Taeler Hendrix is making some allegations against Jay Lethal. Claims are that he killed her push in ROH because she would not sleep with him.
---

Yeah that sounds right
---

Lethal is handling it really maturely too, denying the allegations but asking fans to please not accost her about it because that helps no one.

To no ones surprise, fans arent listening to that advice
---

I'm not sure I believe her accusations yet. She said that Lethal was the reason she left ROH, but she's contradicted that statement previously by saying Mandy Leon was the reason and also Delirious was the reason. Could be a combination of all three, of course. It just seems a little too wrestling-y.

But yes, Lethal's response was really well-worded. And outrage mafia is making it worse.
---

I am fully willing to believe that RoH has issues on multiple levels.
---

I don't believe her for a second. Hendrix is a nutcase that's always looking for new ways to get attention.
---

I honestly dont believe Lethal (or any roster member) has the sort of pull to get a popular woman fired over nothing in the midst of their attempt to actually build a womens division, as half-assed as that attempt has been.

I definitely wouldnt discount the idea that he made some shitty offhand remark to her at some point that shes pointing at now. Quite possible.
---

Taeler's more or less a nutcase.

Sure Lethal might have said a thing or two, but I'm not going to believe Taeler at face value.

There's often been talk that she was a pretty toxic presence in the company and that whole thing with her fake celebrity husband is one of the most bizarre incidents that makes me doubt anything she ever says or does.
---

Like the day before she claimed he did anything, she was going off in reply to somebody saying "I miss House of Truth" saying stuff like "It should have been House of Hendrix. What have they done? Who do they draw?" and saying Lethal should have been carrying her bags

People got on her case about it and suddenly she makes the claim, so...

Seems pretty typical Taeler Hendrix

There's a Brewers game on, and I feel like playing Friday the 13th. No Monday Night Roman for me again this week.

does sending the whole roster to separate 2 guys ever work
---

I think Bliss and Mickie were turned on by all the guys piling on eachother

do we really need to know whether or not you're watching raw if you're not?

How are we supposed to know someone dislikes the product if they aren't constantly telling us?

Drew McIntyre Sheep Fucker

So a man walks into a bar, and sits down. He starts a conversation with a guy next to him. The guy has obviously had a few. He says to the man:

"You see that dock out there? Built it myself, hand crafted each piece, and it's the best dock in town! But do they call me "McIntyre the dock builder"? No! And you see that bridge over there? I built that, took me two months, through rain, sleet and scoarching weather, but do they call me "McIntyre the bridge builder"? No! And you see that pier over there, I built that, best pier in the county! But do they call me "McIntyre the pier builder"? No!"

The guy looks around, and makes sure that nobody is listening, and leans to the man, and he says:

"but you fuck one sheep..."

Of course YOU think she deserves to be heckled
---

Look, until there's officially a final judgment I'm not gonna say she "deserves" to be heckled, but people who falsely accuse others of sexual assault or harassment are absolute scum and I won't feel bad at all for how she's being treated if that's indeed the case here.
---

Depends on what the heckling is.
---

"This is awesome!" and "You deserve it!" mixed with "What?"

Thats disgusting

Are we not talking about fans on RAW heckling?

Would you prefer CM Punk?
---

Oh we're still talking about Jay Lethal.

A good heckle for that would be, "Fight forever."
