Last thread has well over 10,000 replies. Its body is breaking down like The Undertaker's. Seeing as we might have crossed the threshold into a new era in the business, here's a fresh new thread.

I'm pretty sure that after Punk "left" after MITB in 2011 he ate pins at the next four PPVs, because if you get over on your own, the bosses will do everything they can to make sure you don't stay over. [Reply]

Rusev is a perfect example of this currently...
Hell they're tanking a red hot Strowman too who in all actuality should have the strap...but nope, we gotta have THE BIG DOG shoved down our throats. [Reply]

At one point, Punk's pops were drowning out HHH's, and we just can't have that. It's amazing how different HHH is as a talent vs as a behind the scenes only guy (NXT). [Reply]

That match against Taker at GRR was a complete joke. Rusev was made to look like a total jobber against a guy that wrestles at most twice a year and should have hung up the boots years ago. [Reply]

It's almost like wrestling isn't a normal competitive sport. :-) Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]

The fans hate Jinder and will cheer Roman because they have no choice

He got a huge face pop last night when he yanked Reigns down. At this point, Bin Laden's ghost would be a face over Reigns if he wrestled him at Ground Zero. [Reply]
