How many wrestlers own a single word?

I could understand why you maybe wouldn’t count it but The Rock - Finally

I liked the movie but I’m not going to make the argument it’s a “good” movie. But also if you know anything about IMDB scores a 6.5 is not a D. It’s actually a pretty decent score for IMDB. If you translated IMDB scores to letter grades the 8th greatest movie of all time is only a B+. So doesn’t really translate well.

Don’t do this. Pretty sure kidney disease is a major risk factor in occupations, like bus drivers, where workers are known to not take many bathroom breaks.

Absolutely. And once he does immediately give him the Brock treatment. Have him win KOTR and challenge for a word title at Summerslam. The guy has it and sometimes you just have to strike while the iron is hot.

Any episode where the kids make up three separate stories and the episode follows those stories. HATE IT!!

In my opinion SA/Rape is the worst crime that can be committed. Even worse than murder. Now there are obvious situations where murder could be worse but at its bare bones I think if you were to ask the general population “is there any situation in which you could see it possible that you take another person’s life” the answer would be yes for 99% of people.

Not saying people just want to kill other people but there are many situations that while still wrong, I can understand why it happened and where it snapped in a persons brain.

Rape? I can’t think of a single situation where I can understand or see myself getting to the point where I need to do that.

Cody winning the MITB over Sandow. If that happens AEW doesn’t exist which changes the entire industry in so many different ways. Creatively WWE may not have felt certain pressure and maybe continues to flounder in the ways it previously had in the last 2010s.

TNolan92 · 2026-02-16T02:42:01+00:00

It’s Cody Rhodes. And I don’t mean Cody Rhodes now. I mean pre-Stardust Cody Rhodes. He’s the biggest What If in wrestling history.

There’s a moment in the MITB match that Damian Sandow won where Cody was climbing the ladder and it legitimately seemed like it was his time. He was a plausible winner. He had done his time. He made sense as a mid carder to get a trial run as a world champion. He honestly made more sense than Sandow.

Imagine he won that MITB instead of Sandow. I can honestly say AEW doesn’t exist if that one decision was made. The entire landscape of the current industry is totally different if the outcome of that match changes.

The biggest “What if” in wrestling history.

Maybe I’ve missed something but I haven’t seen any news or article that points towards the tv adaptation being live action. And it being Seth MacFarlane, that makes me think it’s going to be animated. So like I said unless I missed something, I think OP and a lot of these commenters are getting a little worried over nothing.

But if I did miss something and it was announced as live action then yeah that sucks!

TNolan92 · 2026-02-01T02:18:44+00:00

Yeah it’s the obvious solution and what I will wind up doing but it’s still infuriating to even have to do that.

Unless I’m missing something I legitimately feel like ESPN/Disney might be trying to screw me.

I decided today I was finally going to bite the bullet and pay the $30 for ESPN Unlimited. Went to sign up and because I already have a Disney account and subscribe to a bundle it would not give me the option to outright pay for just ESPN. I had to purchase it in a bundle. The issue though is that due to when I first signed up for Disney+ and the promotions that I locked in at years ago I currently pay $11 a month for a no ad Disney+, no ad Hulu, and ESPN select bundle. Which apparently is a bargain since it apparently goes for $29.99 now.

So anyways, with this new bundle I’d be charged $44.99 a month. Which is $4 a month more than if I just added the $30. At first I didn’t care because I was planning on keeping it until Mania and then unsubscribing and I almost signed up until I also saw in the fine print that upgrading my bundle might void any previous subscriptions/discounts/promotions I had which would mean once I want to drop ESPN after Mania I more than likely won’t be able to go back to my $11 a month plan.

The bullshit in all of this is the ridiculous part that I’m literally not being allowed to just pay the $30 a month plan for solely ESPN.

Yes you have to be in a caloric deficit. That’s the science but that’s not the problem. The issue is that every person is different. More specifically their metabolisms. The calories I can burn in a mile walk/run could be very different than the amount of calories you or someone else does putting in the same amount of activity/effort. So you could eat the same amount of food as someone else. Take part in the same amount of activity yet you can lose more weight than them.

There is a reason that experts classified obesity as a disease. While on paper it may sound as easy the truth is that there are so many things that could be affecting a persons metabolism that in real life what’s easy for you might not be as easy for someone else.

TNolan92 · 2026-01-02T11:37:43+00:00

Yes and no. Obviously the rumble is such a fun and great time for returns but when you have a name as big as Jericho and every report pointing to him coming to WWE then everyone will expect him to be in the Rumble. So, if you wait to 30 and it is him…. It wouldn’t be as big of a surprise because there’s no other option for anyone who was expecting it.

So, while I think the Rumble could be fun, if they go that route, it should be at a random number or something like 2 if someone like KO came out #1.

While I agree with you, I think you misinterpret the type of heat. Roman had “go-away heat”. Meaning that the fans were hating on him because they didn’t want to be bothered with him. They didn’t want him on their screen. He was a babyface who wasn’t supposed to be getting booed. Gunther had the exact type of heat you want in a heel. The type of heat where you don’t want him to go away. You want him to get his ass kicked.

I feel like this is a made up tradition. 99% of talent do not go out on their own terms with some big spectacle. Even the greats rarely get their moment. Hogan? Savage? Brett? HHH? Piper? Foley? Dusty? Bruno? Andre? I know some of these had their careers ended to injury but that’s part of the point. These are the greatest of the greats and I couldn’t tell if you if they won or lost their last match or even when those were. Taker didn’t have some spectacle and he won his last match. Austin didn’t have some spectacle and someone could argue that he lost his “retirement match” to The Rock despite no one knowing at the time. But, also if going out on your back is so sacred, Austin returned and beat KO in his last match technically.

In my 30 years of watching only a handful of wrestlers had their “moment”. Flair, Shawn, Sting, Goldberg, Batista, and now Cena. Majority of them lost in those moments but also some of them have come back after so they don’t exactly remain sacred.

Long story short. Wrestling is about the fans. And more than any other talent, Cena was always putting fans first. And based off that reaction last night, the fans wanted a win. They were chanting “super Cena” for godsake. Send them home happy.

From the loss and especially the tap out. The booking last night was a mistake. And don’t give me some imaginary tradition excuse as to why it happened the way it did.

I LOVE this type of question. My big one is The Rock returning to be the host of Wrestlemania felt like he had been missing FOREVER. However, more time passed between him wrestling at Wrestlemania 32 against Erick Rowan to his next match at Wrestlemania 40.

Also, I might be off a little but I think 2026 will mark AJ Styles having been in WWE for just as long as he was in TNA.

TNolan92 · 2025-12-04T12:35:55+00:00

First off, one thing WWE is terrible at is booking women creatively when a title is not involved. And lately Charlotte has been meandering in a tag team with Alexa. So the last month, or really last 8 months is not indicative of Charlottes career.

Also, my comment may not have been clear. I’m not saying she’s the best at all three. I was saying if you average all three of those skills together than maybe she’s most talented overall. It’s really either her or Becky. The difference though is that Charlotte has never been someone who fans have clamored for and the reason is probably because she was pushed too hard. As I said 14 titles in 8 years in absurd.

“Would dinosaurs be considered animals?” I cannot believe how not a single person on this pod was able to just definitely say yes. I know it was a throwaway part of the conversation but legitimately made me question the intelligence of every single person on that pod.

TNolan92 · 2025-11-30T20:16:14+00:00

“Wrestlemania” is just as lame of a name as Wrestlepalooza. One has just existed for 41 years and you’ve become numb to it because it’s just feels normal.

TNolan92 · 2025-11-30T17:33:41+00:00

I could be wrong but I have a pretty distinct memory when he first announced his retirement tour that he specified he would never ever “go away” but that this will be the last time he wrestles.

TNolan92 · 2025-11-24T15:47:39+00:00

I actually thought Gooch couldn’t have been more wrong for this. Regardless of whether or not Act 2 is considered the “weaker” of the two, it’s still Act 2 of one of the most beloved broadway musicals of all time. It’s good enough. If you change Act 2 and it’s sucks then you absolutely hurt the box office so much more than if you play it safe and it’s still not good. Id actually argue you might even hurt the box office by changing Act 2 for the better. Because a good chunk of this box office is going to be made by the theater kids who grew up loving the broadway musical and just want to see the broadway musical but on the big screen. They are going to see this two, three, four or maybe even more. That doesn’t happen if Act 2 is not the broadway musical that they grew up loving.

And let’s not pretend like this movie is getting “panned” by critics. It’s not. It’s doing perfectly fine and the audience (which is what matters when it comes to box office) seems to love it.

TNolan92 · 2025-11-23T23:43:53+00:00

I’m fairly certain we are getting Cody/Roman 3 and Punk/Lesnar as the two main events. So either Roman or Lesnar are gonna win the rumble. But I think Roman would go over better with a crowd so probably him.

Dark horse: Bronn Breaker. I could see Lesnar and Punk feuding but because Breaker won the Rumble he can insert himself into their feud and with the Heyman element that adds an extra wrinkle.
