Or he'd annoy Vince and "holds pomegranates" would become his whole gimmick.

"He would train in the off years by carrying a newborn calf on his back every day until the Olympics took place. By the time the events were to take place, he was carrying a four-year-old cow on his back. He carried the full-grown cow the length of the stadium, then proceeded to kill, roast, and eat it."
What a man.
Another 5 card PPV for Survivor Series this weekend. No World Titles on the line and not even a single person from the Bloodline even showing up. LA Knight doing nothing either.
CM Punk must be showing up.
If you believe the dirty sheets, WWE are currently trying hard to get everyone to believe he's not showing and Randy is the big return.
I can't decide if the Nakamura stuff around that is a bit on the nose or not.
It'll be a fun pop if he does return, then fun again when he's gone by February .
I'm watching the Shield vs. New Day Survivor Series tag match as Youtube suggested it to me.
I miss New Day being important.
I miss Big E.
The Shield v Wyatt Family for the first time was good as well
Don't you worry my man, it's also on my list of bookmarked matches to watch / rewatch.Originally Posted by Waffdon
Don't think Shield vs. Evolution is on Youtube, I'll need to check. The thing I loved about peak Shield in trios matches was how they were constantly moving. Very little downtime. Always either working a tag, doing quick tags, whatever. There was a relentlessness to them in those matches that a) made them great to watch and b) really sold the gimmick.
Everything I read about him says he should be greatful he can walk about, never mind get in the ring again. I'm not sure we see him back unfortunately. New Day have been nothing since he went out.I miss Big E.
Yeah I'm working under the assumption he never comes back as a wrestler. Stranger things have happened and might be one of those where give it a few years and he might actually be good to go but best to assume not.
I'm surprised they haven't offered him mountains of cash to be a commentator.
I don't think he fits as a commentator. I'd take him over Barrett but it looks like he and Cole are getting along alright.
Cole is genuinely solid now he doesn't have Vince bellowing down his ear every three seconds, and him and Barrett are a good combo but it's bad for all involved that they're having babysit Kevin Patrick who is shiiiiiit.
I’m sure AEW will let him have a ladder match with Darby Allin.
I'm a twit
Having Damage CTRL lose is just a bit dumb. Why do faces always have to win these sort of matches? Bayley taking the pin helps with that storyline down the line but still a bit stupid. Can’t have Charlotte and Becky lose I guess
And the faces win again. Hopefully that’s the end of Judgement Day versus this lot every week on Raw
And I missed the Punk pop because they were celebrating too long and I assumed it was over. Fuck sake
Lol at the waster going back to WWE after all the shit he talked about them, we should have a sweepstake on how long until toys are thrown.
Death. Taxes. CM Punk returns in Chicago.
I can't wait for the promo tomorrow. "I'm only here because there's been a change at the top. It's not like that nasty unnamed last place where I was, where the mark in charge only gave me my own whole new show I couldn't last a couple months on"
They won’t let him say that. AEW means nothing to 99% of WWE fans. Now TKO is boss, there’s a whole lot of money to be made and you’d think he’ll toe the line at least for a little while.
It does seem they didn't tell a lot of top talent that Pepsi Phil was coming back either. Drew stormed out of the arena slamming doors and Rollins was at the bottom of the ramp giving him the finger and shouting fuck you over and over.
The latter is likely a work but already ruffling feathers
Did his legs survive his entrance?
I'm a twit
Can’t wait to see yet more absolutely awful matches that some marks say are the best matches of all time because he copied a headlock sequence that Brett Hart did on a Nitro in 1994.
As if any of those stories about people storming out are true, it's wrestling you dweebs.
Him strutting out in a plain white t-shirt like a nobody.
He might behave himself until Mania if it's been suggested he might get the night 1 main event. Or he could be gone in a fortnight.
Punk
Still the biggest draw in the business
You'd hope that in a company with a bit more structure he won't get into the same scrapes but it's not something I'd put big money on. Hopefully it works out as he can put a match together better than most and talk people into the building, the Rollins thing seems too convenient not to be put on as well.
Do they still have the doctor that he was talking about in the podcast years ago?
Sounds too much like Sargon of Akkad
i'M ON THE GRASS
I'm a twit
That's a very old picture of Moxley. Guy has lost all his hair and wrestling ability since that was taken.
They’ll be lucky to get 40k this time around. Will lie and say they sold 60k though.i'M ON THE GRASS
Not bothered. Could be attendance of 2 and still be awesome.
I'm a twit
They need to get the title on Swerve ASAP.
Fast forward a year to Baz and another bloke in an empty stadium trying to start a "This is awesome." chant.
Ian, am I the only one that gets told off for being negative about things?
Are they doing a massive stage for Wembley this time? I like a smaller stage with arenas as it looks more alive but with big stadiums it's good to go ridiculous, plus it gives Darby Allin something to jump off.
I nearly replied to the three of you having the same row after every AEW show the other day but decided I didn't have the energy for it.
That said there's a difference between "I thought that thing was shit" and your "I felt differently about this to you and thus I'm going to take.it extremely personally and call you a cunt" aggro bullshit but I've taken to mostly just skimming over any posts that are following an AEW show now.
Ben could probably do with watching a lot less wrestling though, or stop watching things he's predictably not going to like.
Though even that can have its pitfalls, such as me over the weekend assuming even the Miz could have a good match with Gunther and being wrong.
Also even in bants Baz is never gonna have a worse time at a PPV than that time 7om was sat behind a pillar at Mania.
I actually am watching less recently, and almost next to no AEW. But I predicted I was going to really like MJF vs. Jay White, as I've liked White for years and MJF is the best thing they've got, not my fault they booked it into oblivion.
First time I've moaned about the company self-sabotaging for a while then Professor Headlock had to go and drag the conversation down.
Professor Headlock should absolutely be a wrestling name.
Phonics will hate it but someone should absolutely do it in AEW, as a big anti-flippy shit gimmick. Mick Foley did the anti-hardcore thing in ECW and it was hilarious.
Reminds me of Jericho's group calling themselves 'sports entertainers' as if that would stand out in a company with a sloth in sunglasses, a very nice demon, whatever the fuck Brandon Cutler is, etc
Meant to be yeah. I checked last years seating plan and got spooked by section F not being very good but it’s completely different this year due to the massive stage plans, apparently.
I'm a twit
Finally finished WARGAMES!, the RKO was pretty swish.
Shame about the utter twat Punk being back though.
Taking that RKO must have suuuuuuuuuuuuuuucked given he's basically just doing a no-cushion belly flop off the top of the cage.
Yeah it was stupid. I don't think Damage CTRL have ever won a match as a collective.
Not sure why they felt the need to have Becky and Charlotte BURYING THE HATCHET be the main story.
Damage CTRL winning and showcasing their ultimate power now that they have Asuka would have been class.
Well they lost because they're gonna kick Bayley out, and then hopefully can be good.
EDIT: Not that Bayley isn't great, to be clear, but I mean once they've done that if Damage CTRL can then be allowed to be good I'd appreciate it.
Sasha banks to come back and save Bayley.
