Rip Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 So we're just supposed to forget that the Prime Time Players weren't a thing a year ago, and then broke up, right? Plus I can't ever look at Darren Young without thinking he's John Cena in blackface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I can't ever look at Darren Young without thinking he's John Cena in blackface. I've assumed he grew out that sketchy facial hair to try and look less like his long lost brother. Any thoughts on Raw tonight? I skipped it to go see Prawn and judging by nobody here talking about it I have to assume I made the right choice. Prawn rules.

dantheriver Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 One of my buddies mentioned that this was a cool match. I hope things keep going in Neville's favor (booking wise, I have no clue if he won). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 He lost and then Sheamus came out and killed them both. Neville still looks good even though he hasn't won his last few matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ookowalsky Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Does anybody know if Bryan, Wyatt or Ambrose are part of the current europe tour? I know that Ambrose wrestled Adam Rose on the latest episode of Raw, which sounded boring as shit. But I´m still tempted to go to the show on Friday.

Crabwalker Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 It was a solid raw. A few good matches. Cena/BNB was good. Ziggler/Neville was awesome. They did a good job of progressing the story lines as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breezus Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Agreed, those were pretty good matches. It was nice seeing BNB kick out of an FU and Neville is an absolute lunatic. Also, Naomi's heel turn was perfectly executed. I was never a fan of her, but that was good stuff. I don't get why Bryan wasn't on RAW though (wrestling, that is) for the second consecutive week. He seems fine, he works SmackDown! every week. But I guess having Ambrose squash Adam Rose was more important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Word on the sheets is that Bryan is in rough shape still from his previous injury so he's being protected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabwalker Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Those are all unfounded rumors. I think it has more to do with the original rumors that they were going to do a soft brand split. US title will be the main belt on raw and IC on smackdown. If Bryan is mainly on smackdown people are going to tune in to watch him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he's been pulled from the rest of the Euro tour... so maybe not so unfounded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabwalker Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Hmm. Well now I guess there is some credence then. But the initial reports came from pure speculation from the wrestling observer. Bummed though. If he's still having neck problems then the end might be close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breezus Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 He still worked SmackDown! apparently. Tag match but still. Whether the WWE is protecting him or he's become a SD!-exclusive talent (which makes no sense since virtually everybody else appears on RAW), that does not excuse his RAW absences. And Bryan possibly not being at 100% should be no surprise. I expected him to tone down his style when he returned but he's still doing Suicide Dives and cringe-worthy Diving Headbutts. He adapted this insanely fired up style in mid-2013 when the Yes-Movement really got going and that has definitely taken its toll. He should go easier in the ring, adapt a more grounded submission style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sacredheart Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 They have released a statement saying he was pulled from the tour for precautionary reasons. Sounds like he is still pretty banged up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWindBlower Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 NXT was not good last night. Anyone else see it? Yeah, I wasn't a huge fan of last night's show. The Zayn/Rhyno match was good, not great. Dana Brooks is not ready to compete in the ring, especially with the level of talent in the women's division of NXT. Baron Corbin is losing his mystique. It's really time they throw him in a feud with someone good. Honestly, one of my favorite parts was Alex Riley's promo. I hope the match with Kevin Owens next week is good.

I took a sabbatical from wrestling around the late 2000s, so I've never really seen him in the ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llamaface Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Just finished last night's NXT. Very underwhelming. Next week is looking good, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtw88 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I went to the NXT house show in Gainesville last night. It was a lot of fun. Mojo is back. He still sucks in the ring but he worked the crowd really well and had one of the best receptions of the night. Another interesting note is that the crowd ate Corbin alive. Tye Dillinger got ripped apart by the crowd too. He has this new(?) Perfect 10 gimmick and the crowd chanted Zero Talent for a good portion of the match. Enzo and Cass are so over. Good show. I got to see pretty much everyone except Balor and Owens. Owens came but just cut a promo about how he wasn't wrestling a shitty house show.

I think I remember when he got injured he cut a promo or something saying that he'd be back with a new attitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
