Any Pro-Wrestling Fans Around?

Holy shit. I didn't know that he joined. I thought he declined their offer?

 

I think it's Photoshopped.

 

Here's another one:

I just realized that when I saw the original.

 

Also, I saw this.

They were a good team & X PAC DOES NOT SUCK! *Ahem* Sorry, about that.

I never said he did. 

 

On a side note, I'm watching old matches right now, and I definitely see the difference between new ones. 

They don't use their finishers so much, and finishers actually finish the match.

Sorry, I didn't mean you.

 

That's just what the crowds used to chant when X-Pac was a Heel.

 

I miss when finishers actually FINISHED a match, too. 

 

They also seemed a lot more realistic and a lot less choreographed.

The only time a finisher didn't finish the match was when an interruption happened. Nowadays the superstars kick out of Sweet Chin Music and Pedigrees like their nothing.

I hate these cheap "5 Star Classic" type matches WWE has nowadays where it all it takes is multiple finisher kick outs for the fans to chant "This is awesome".

 

I miss when that kind of stuff was saved for PPV's like WrestleMania and wasn't shown on TV.

Yeah. Multiple finishers doesn't make the match more exciting, it drags the match on and on. In the old days, we knew that the finisher would end the match, but we never knew when it was coming. They would usually do regular moves like DDTs and suplexes to build up to the finisher. It lead to actual intense matches where we didn't know who would come out on top.

 

I just watched Team Austin vs Team Bischoff, and damn, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.

 

(JR and King were also a huge plus. One rooting for the face and one rooting for the heel. It lead to some pretty interesting conversations.)

Like, when Stone Cold Steve Austin would hit a Stunner out of nowhere, for example. 

 

Nowadays, they also tease the finishers too early, like Randy Orton with the RKO.

 

I mean, you KNOW he wont hit the RKO in the first few minutes so, why even bother.

I mean, you KNOW he wont hit the move in the first couple minutes so, why even bother.

Yeah, his RKO used to come out of nowhere.

 

If you didn't watch Team Austin vs Team Bischoff, ignore this.

 

 

That ending was heartbreaking. I expected Austin to stunner Michaels or take his frustration out on him. But, he knew that Michaels gave it his all. I'm glad he didn't.

I have, it's one of my favorites. 

 

A great match with awesome storytelling.  

 

I know you've probably said it already (Or I forgot where you posted it)

 

What is your favorite match?

Ever since you posted that link, I've been watching team elimination matches and elimination chambers.

 

I watched Team Orton vs Team Triple H, The Rock and Mick Foley vs Evolution, Elimination Chamber 2008, Elimination Chamber 2005, and Triple H vs Mick Foley vs The Rock vs The Big Show.

 

I'm currently watching Team WWF vs Team Alliance.

I like Paul Heyman as a commentator.

[Mesme Rize 15,683]

 

They didn't do much with this feud. But this was hilarious. XD

[Sparklefan1234 170,461]

I like Paul Heyman as a commentator.

 

The commentary in the match is hysterical!

 

Heyman constantly making fun of Oklahoma and questioning JR's "Taking people to the woodshed." are my favorites.

 

*Heyman mocking JR* "That's a good point, Paul."

"Why do you keep wanting to take men out to the woodshed? What's the matter with you?"

 

That and Shane-O-Mac's constant interruptions. Like, seriously, he's quick with those ax handles.

Another moment I like is Shane eliminated I can't remember if it was Kane or RVD & started dancing only to be met with a series of punches by The Rock, ha, ha.

Another thing the newer WWE games need are extra CAW-size options.

 

It's downright embarrassing to have a Giant Gonzalez CAW who can only be slightly shorter than The Big Show at most.

Shane eliminated the Big Show. With help from Angle, Booker T, and RVD. Then he started shuffling in celebration only to turn around into The Rock's punches.

I agree with you there. 

 

I think they should also add in thumbtacks that can be scattered around the ring. Cause, a Mankind/Mick Foley/Cactus Jack match just isn't complete without them or Barbie.
