There was some women’s wrestling on (on my stream) after the Australian thing. The way Kacy Catanzaro gets into the ring is ace.

I'm a twit
That Cruiserweight match was ace, surprised they did the title switch even considering where it is. I'm a sucker for the hometown hero thing.
There's a Southside Wrestling event going on near me in a couple of weeks:
TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH
ALL KNIGHTERZ (c) v THE 198 v CONNERS & LIGERO v JAWDROPPERZ
Queen of Southside title match
KASEY OWENS(c) v KAY LEE RAY
Speed King Division match
RICH SWANN v KIP SABIAN
Singles action
JOE COFFEY v GABRIEL KIDD
European Title Match
ADAM MAXTED v BAD BONES v BRADY PHILIPS v MIKE BIRD
Speed King Title Match
ROBBIE X (c) v SENZA VOLTO
Singles Action
RENE DUPREE v ????????
Tag Team Grudge Match
???? & ???? v ???? v ????
Dupree
Shame I can't be arsed to go.
Just finished that match.
I thought going into it that they were going to put it on Murphy but when the IIconics won I thought they'd do the wrong thing.
Murphy fully deserved that and I really don't understand why Cedric held the title for so long, he's a good wrestler but lacks a personality.
Nice that they gave them a good spot in the card too, as Cruiserweight stuff gets buried on pre-shows.
Some shitters and I really didn't get The Miz/Bryan thing but overall I enjoyed it.
Surprised they gave the main event almost 30 minutes, Undertaker looked like he was on his last breath a few times. Kane was also so useless that I half expected him to turn on 'Taker.
A lot heavy lifting done by the other wrestler. Reminds me of watching Marty Scurll at times.
Heavy? You could fit that lass in your pocket. Satomura / Martinez from the same episode was as good as anything I've seen so far.
Pretty cool to hear the old Bullet Club theme with Jay White joining Bullet Club OG

Haven't watched RAW yet but fucking Nikki Bella against Ronda at Evolution, ugh. At least it's not Brie (probably next in line) though.
Another good promo from ZSJ

Brie can't even do simple things.
lol at Sarah Logan still selling the trip which never came though.
Also, they're finally doing right by AOP since they gave them Drake Maverick.
They really need to be the next tag champions, they're so good.
NXT UK finally starts streaming from next Wednesday
US senators are putting pressure on WWE to cancel the Saudi deal. All stems from the government apparently ordering the assassination of a Saudi American journalist in a consulate in Turkey.
Seems that Crown Jewel will more than likely be moved to another country.
Tasty, tasty hypocrisy.
Cena, Orton, Hardy and Angle.
This World Cup shit is a proper early 00's event.
Rey Mysterio to join up next week so we might as well go all out and bring in Edge, The Rock and Austin for the remaining spots.
The Sultan of Saudi Arabia probably requested Warrior vs Hogan for the main event.
Well there are big rumours that Hulk will be making his TV return at the event...
Bret Hart vs that fake Yokozuna has to happen.
Just got a WWE subscription because i hate myself. Any reccomendations for cool stuff to watch that isn't 'Monday Night Wars' and nerd shit like watching every WCW Nitro?
NXT, 205 Live, old RAW/Smackdown episodes ya de da.
The Mae Young Classic is meant to be great if your into female wrestling.
I can't remember the name of it but there's a section in there which has a load of the docs and features they've put out on DVD over the years, a lot of those are very good. (EDIT: http://network.wwe.com/shows/origina...eyond-the-ring)
The WWE 24 series is good also

NXT is the number 1 show.
You could just watch the Takeovers (their PPV's) and you'd get some quality stuff.
I think 4 or 5 NXT matches this year have been given a 5* rating by Dave Meltzer. The last one a WWE main roster match got one was in 2011.
Yeah but let's not forget that while the main roster isn't exactly consistently stellar Dave Meltzer is full of shit.
True but the matches he has rated that highly (for NXT) are legitimate 5 star matches.
He picked out one of the Gargano/Ciampa matches (you could make a case for all 3), the NXT North American Title ladder match, Andrade Almas/Gargano and Moustache Mountain/Undisputed Era match (probably the one you could make a case on not being a 5*) on a regular show.
I'm not suggesting those matches are overrated I'm saying that if you based WWE matches worth going out of your way to watch on what Meltzer scores them you wouldn't have watched any of it in about five years.
And his 7/5 nonsense can sod off as well.
Watching RAW now and Ronda was pretty shitty on the mic at times (Bella is not a 4 letter word...) but some of it was great.
The Bellas claiming that they are pioneers of the Women's Evolution
Rousey is serviceable on the mic if she's doing short bits. Promos on her own she's not ready for and may never be.
Not sure what's going on with Boatman and Ziggler / McIntyre other than that the latter two are presumably now being split up.
Oh and NXT UK officially starts on Wednesday at 8pm.
I'm so excited.
At least Nakamura vs. Mysterio tonight guarantees one foreigner in this World Cup.
Also: NXT Uk and NXT on the same night? Excellent times.
Jericho is so great with promos.

Best promos bit in Smackdown were the Evolution reunion (the thing with Batista and Flair was great, especially with HHH's and Orton's reaction) and Becky with Edge.
Matches were ok and I wonder how much Undertaker got paid for that at the end.
Bam checking the WWE thread to make fun of people for liking WWE is very on-brand considering he seems to think literally everyone here isn't cool enough for him.
Well I guess that's that then.
It was fun but I guess an Essex builder with a trophy wife really knows what I should be liking.
Mate...
Is Shawn Michaels actually unretired properly? How can Triple Haitch do such a good job with NXT and still think people want to see him rassle?
They reckon another singles match with Undertaker is to follow, which at this point would really test the idea of Michaels being able to get a good match out of anyone.
Taker is going to die in the ring isn't he?
Taker just can't give the life up.
Given that Taker already took his career, what does he get if he wins again? A night with his wife?
Was half expecting Benoit to get a spot in that World Cup. What a crap line up.
If Benoit got a spot then they'd have to give his wife and son one too.
This line up feels like a classic "Vinnie Mac pisses on something he doesn't understand" effort.
Chelsea Green has been signed to NXT.
I thought she was great at All In so I hope they don't change her character too much.
