Juice-Mox match in Japan this morning our time is a fun watch. Enjoyed it. 25+minute match. They built it to try to avoid a wrestling match and being a brawl. And it works perfect for showing that Juice can work that style as good as any going.

Mox in wrestling trunks takes some getting use too. lol

He had a sick move lifting Juice for a suplex. Then just releases Juice when his body was vertical in the air for it.

Love me some Redshoes. #GOAT

 

Sounds similar to the Nightmare Pendulum that Alexander Hammerstone uses in MLW (it's always weird for me seeing his evolution because I've been following him since 3 years ago when he broke onto the So Cal indy scene looking like the muscular son of Duff McKagan from Guns n' Roses (long blonde hair and everything) and using a reverse powerbomb as his finish.

He used that on the indies before and called it Money Clip. One of my favorite moves that he only used once in WWE that I remember. He needs to change the shorts. They looked bad. Otherwise I'm super excited. Imagine him in the G1.

Honestly, he just needs to go back to the gear he used in CZW and pretty much carried into FCW.  Plain, logo-less black (sometimes alternating a dark maroon) tights, kneepads, and boots (very Austin-inspired type attire).

You guys should watch MLW. It is the best wrestling promotion on TV.

 

I've asked this on a couple of occasions, who's the hottest woman in wrestling now? I'd say Carmella wins with Mandy Rose #2 and Brandi Rhodes #3

WWE only.

Mandy 

Alexa

Zelina

I just think this is the evolution of the industry.... WWE is putting out the blandest product since WCW's final days, or I guess TNA's final days. There are plotholes everywhere. They don't need Mick Foley to jump off cages or women to go through tables in their underwear, but they need to let wrestlers out of their shells. 

This 100% for me.

In my opinion all the best wrestlers and times in wrestling are when the talent was given "free reign" to really run with the character or just let to be themselves turned up to 11. If you take any subjective list of the top 25 "best" or most influential wrestles you'll get probably the Ultimate Warrior as the only real guy where it was the gimmick that got the guy over and not vice versa. I really think that's what NXT and AEW (this is pretty cleary their intention and stated purpose so I hope it goes this way) do well and what RAW and Smackdown do so poorly.

Come on, you're telling me you don't want to go back to the days of Dawn Marie, Trish, Stacey, etc in Bra and Panties matches? LOOK AT THE PUPPIES JR!

Considering I'm no longer in puberty.  No.

If people want to look at half naked women, porn is so much more accessible on the internet now (for free) than it was in the 90's that exploiting women (harsh word, but it's not untrue) to appeal to guys too cheap (or too young) to go to a strip club adds little marketability to the product.

Wow I never thought of it that way. I wonder how those women would respond to knowing the platform that paid them hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars, allowed them to build their brands and platforms, and made them stars was exploiting them. In fact, I'll let my employer exploit me every day and twice on Sunday.

Give me a break. They were all better wrestlers than the product the "empowered women" put on today.

You might have had a prayer at an argument until this gem.  But this just showed you haven't got a clue what you're talking about.

If they were "better wrestlers" (and yes, some of them were, but I'll flat out guarantee you're not referring to the ones who actually were - like Ivory or Victoria or Molly Holly - but all is just doing the typical FF "I'ma go hyperbolic to make my point sound more impactful and only serve to make myself look stupid"), then why did they need to be gimmicked?

Admit it, you wouldn't have given two cow turds about them if they weren't half-naked.  If you did actually care about their in-ring performance, you'd have been watching Japanese wrestling where the women were actually going HARD during that time and for 10 years prior.

Sit down, son, your ignorance is showing.

Scarlett Bordeaux was a name I was going to throw out there.  I'm not really one for bleach blondes, but she has a whole aura to her that adds to her appeal.

A personal attack from a global moderator? Wow this site will really let anyone mod. Instead of admitting that you're wrong, you doubled down.

It wasn't a personal attack.  I'm sorry you apparently don't read very well.  I said the statement you made made you look stupid, which it did.  A personal attack would have been me calling  you stupid, which I didn't.  Calling someone ignorant isn't an attack, it's an observation, particularly when someone is posting something that shows that they are ignorant on a particular topic.

As to the last part.  Seriously, what are you?  A teenager?  Grow up!

I can't believe I'm actually watching super showdown but it's early and there's nothing on... 

I cannot believe they have Roman Reigns selling for Shane like this. Jesus. Cornette wants to explode over double or nothing but this is worth a 3 hour podcast in itself
