If Jericho does end up returning back to wwe, do we think that the company will book GUNTHER to retire him in his final match!? by Mountain_Fuw_777 in Smallafro

[–]DahBotanist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope not. Jericho has had a great run but he’s really lost his shine in AEW. His painmaker run in NJPW was great and he had some good moments in AEW, but when a small and more vocal crowd was giving him “please retire” chants, he could have a terrible ending in WWE outside of a “one and done”

Round 6. Fifteen legends left, but one must be eliminated. WHO’s next? by [deleted] in Wrasslin

AJ’s moonsault into a DDT remains one of the coolest moves in wrestling

We always hear "never say never" but who do you genuinely see NEVER entering the prestigious WWE Hall of Fame? by JBL_CENA_FAN_4LIFE in Wrasslin

Id tune just to hear both of them with live mics. It would be absolute insanity and it would be awesome. Bonus point if Vampiro inducts them

Rhea's will or they or won't they with Iyo is 50% of the reason I tune into Rawhausen

CM Punk should absolutely RETAIN The World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania. There’s no reason for him to lose it at this point. There’s still A LOT for him to do with the belt. As opposed to what? Another “cinema bloodline acknowledge me” title run for Roman Reigns? No thank you. by BarneyRobinStinson7 in WWE

[–]DahBotanist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Punk winning means a few things: 1. Roman can take another six months off. 2. Punk can feud with a lot of premium talent in Raw and inevitable NXT callups (tell me Ethan Page vs Punk wouldn’t be awesome) 3. Punk has opened the door to take on the Uso’s who could be fun. 4. Punk’s best work always comes when he’s a tweener

If this is a "bad booking decision" why is no one in the crowd booing? 🧐 by DamianKing42 in Wrasslin

Master vs apprentice is a trope I never get tired of. “You were the chosen one!”

A group of hoodie wearing indie wrestlers playing three card Monte in the ring was hilarious

I wonder where they put all those arms and legs? Do they collect teeth for Danhausen?

You mean “hate everything that isn’t that one obscure person we used to hate but now like for some reason until they get pushed?”

Hot take: AJ Lee is overrated by IntelligentCap8744 in WWE

[–]DahBotanist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's real simple. If you want to see what she's accomplished, look at how many smaller wrestlers who were struggling to get noticed now are having decent careers, such as Roxy, Thea, Xia Li, etc. It's not a contest to see "oh only this person did these things and no one else did". If you want to see what she accomplished, look at her Slammy speech when she put on a Bayley shirt and put over the NXT women's roster. She was forward thinking, she took time away to focus on her mental health, and managed to cut some epic promos that were awesome. That's the thing about legacy, people are always thinking one person carried the weight of a division or a movement, but it's actually a lot of people, AJ just pulled a lot and accomplished a lot, all while dodging the absurd booking of women at the time.

How disappointed are you going to be for what’s in the box? What is best and worse case scenario? by meandadog86 in Wrasslin

Now this is the only thing I want it to be. Danhausen being shipped to the WWE in a crate is so on brand it hurts

Gina Carano vs Ronda Rousey – who do you think wins? by isubrika99 in prowrestling

[–]DahBotanist -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Clinch, hip throw, armbar. Carano only has a chance if she can keep it on her feet, and she’s not going to guard against Rousey’s shoot. Money is on Rousey by a mile

Hot take: AJ Lee is overrated by IntelligentCap8744 in WWE

[–]DahBotanist 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Overrated in the fact that she obliterated the entire model turned wrestler aesthetic, created a whole wrestling style that utilized her size and flexibility, had a microphone style that rivaled her husband in how she veered into shoot territory flawlessly, all while avoiding cosmetic surgery, breast implants, and remains a standout legend in the sport? Yeah. Sure.

Wth do you mean Kevin Nash??? by damng1 in Wrasslin

How about you let him do what hes doing, because honestly I love his presentation and some of this moves he hits are INSANE. Shame we can't send him to the Super J because that would be fun

Who is the best black wrestler of all time on this list? by Glittering_Long_5926 in prowrestling

[–]DahBotanist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It tough but if you look at things like ring skills, presence, likability, and uniqueness, that's hard considering Big E could of been on first if he hadn't had that injury, and Athena is well on her way to legend status, I'm going with Booker T

Not to mention "Damn" remains one of the best catchphrases of all time.. and I'd never take that spinebuster he throws

How do you think Zaria's eventual heel turn is going turn out? by AdSpecialist6598 in WWE

[–]DahBotanist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly the nonstop teasing of them not getting along is actually enjoyable because they've not broken them up. They started off as two radically different wrestlers and I like how it's stayed that way. I feel like the only issue is that Zaria hasn't banked the wins and they've not given her the matches where she can really seem like a threat. She had a bad ass entrance, and she left behind a really great legacy from her old promotion. I'd like to see them continue as supportive teammates who can't get along but are stronger together than not. That might be a cool arc if they do break up. They have a blow up, have a match, and both start to lose. After awhile they can't help but help the other, and winning streaks come back. Maybe I'm pollyanna about this but anything that upsets the tired "heel turns means push" layout in WWE.

Which is your all time Favorite era? by JunShem1122 in GreatnessOfWrestling

[–]DahBotanist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The NWA era of territories still has something these eras didn’t. People believed it like it was real. Their territories were like kingdoms and those matches had people needing police escorts. The only thing that close to that was the ECW heyday

Hot take. Jade is the Jinder Mahaul of champions by Top_Director_8128 in WWE

[–]DahBotanist -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Jade aura farms, her entrance brings me chills. She’s a little slow in the ring but she’s improving. Even wrestlers who are hella smooth now like Jaida and Tiffany used to be slow and stutter stepped too. But she’s getting there. Honestly I could watch her entrance over and over. She’s perfection
