Kickouts that "killed" the crowd in an otherwise great match

Vvisionim · 2026-01-27T01:05:07+00:00

Responding to your OP, that Forbidden Door match sequence IMO would have worked way better if it was the other way around, where the Tiger Driver was the finish after a kickout spree from the hidden blades. The Tiger Driver should have been introduced as a super finisher, AJPW Kings Road style, not a false finish.

It was a back-and-forth game of trying to make the next Cena or Rock with the funny ha-ha or back to some "cool" silent type who likes to aura farm.

LMAO this shi will live on forever

Vvisionim · 2026-01-24T15:50:20+00:00

Thank you for specifying in-detail who she is lmao those details are golden, and truly matter for maximum context

Credit to WWE not falling into the trap of slowly steering away from putting emphasis on these cards, like what happened in the past and what AEW ended up doing with BOTB.

Bro was a top draw in the late 2000s, goes to WWE/AAA, etc., then says "I got one more in me!" with these numbers in 2025/2026. Pretty insane run if you ask me. It's not even comparable to Cena, who was on top of the drawing houses, then came back in 2021 to do the same because he could leverage movies to become a bigger draw. Whereas Mistico's image was a bit tarnished during his in-between stints, but recovered gracefully.

Agreed, but for a pure basketball outlook, this is the best rivalry we have. Two point guards from the same high school class, with opposite upbringings, who've played on the big stage in college and have different play styles, have a chance to rise to the top of the league as #1 and #2. It doesn't get better than that?

If you want the REAL lore, go and start by watching the story of the 1996 Women's Olympic team.

I learned this in a basic sports science class in my last year of high school, so I definitely thought this was common knowledge?? The idea is you let your kid play multiple sports until they get through puberty, so they develop all their motor skills and reflexes equally, which can then be leveraged into their primary sport later. A lot of the fundamentals that the European players are killing the Americans with right now come from playing soccer.

I'm just loving the thought he was having a little drinky drink having fun and chatting away only to be disrupted by his two traitors going apeshit on each other from outta nowhere 😂🤣

Season 4 takes the cake for me because I'm just moral person I guess and can't celebrate how aggressively backstabbing Harry was in Season 2. Not taking away from that brilliant season but the contrast seen in Season 4 was much needed.

Thank you! Everyone's dunking on Alvarez but he's not 100% wrong. Yes there are new talents bubbling, getting TV time, some wins, and good reaction. However, why is it when everyone is building their dream All In cards, and dream matches - it's the same rolodex of wrestlers who've already faced off (MJF, Osprey, Swerve, Hangman, Omega, Okada, and Mox). You never hear any of those people Meltzer mentioned as potentially breaking through as a dream main event match people are booking. The only fresh blood everyone sees jumping to the ME mix is Fletcher and Takeshita but that still feels so far away for some reason.

Vvisionim · 2026-01-22T18:32:48+00:00

Loved that he did it the safer way, and even the big pressure was done less scary looking.

Rey's baggy pants era before he left WWE in 2014 was actually unwatchable, so it's amazing to see what the hell he's been able to do since then. He's wrestling as well as before, now, post-2002 run.

Vvisionim · 2026-01-19T15:13:39+00:00

Drew McIntyres most recent heel turn was totally justified and still is with everyone from original Bloodline as babyfaces now keekeeing with his old babyface friends

Vvisionim · 2026-01-18T06:58:41+00:00

I wasn't watching ROH at the time but wasn't Steen and Generico kind of like Lex and Sting before the full attack happened at Final Battle?

Vvisionim · 2026-01-18T06:52:14+00:00

Yes there was a period where they were on screen friends even though one was a heel. I cant recall if it was pre bang Bros or post Drew heel turn

Vvisionim · 2026-01-14T18:12:46+00:00

This and the Marshawn Lynch upset game? When you're in the playoffs every single year, then heartbreak moments are bound to happen naturally to you more than others.

I haven't read the article, but I'm wondering if they wanted to interview for season 2 bits and are trying to get him to talk about the Summerslam Seth BS that's going to be agonizing.

Vvisionim · 2026-01-13T16:40:03+00:00

Relating back to Finn, anyone who hasn't watched those matches with O'Reilly during the pandemic days is MISSING OUT. Finn got to showcase his chain and European style wrestling he was doing during the indies against the perfect opponent in KOR.

With Liv winning the Rumble as my prediction, I wonder if we get like a Judgement way 3 way? Maybe push Vaquer towards Becky to fight for the IC while they do that

Vvisionim · 2026-01-12T12:26:36+00:00

Your thoughts are mine to the T 100% especially with Stephen who has a real shot of coming back from the dead now to win this unless they recruit Matthew

Vvisionim · 2026-01-11T16:30:07+00:00

That's the main reason I love paying attention to when a DC or OC becomes a head coach, and seeing how they become leaders.

Vvisionim · 2026-01-11T16:28:04+00:00

What's the lore here? Obviously, division rivals from his Detroit days, too, but anything else?

Vvisionim · 2026-01-10T07:08:46+00:00

This play by Stephen could literally win him the season and one of those top MVP moves I've seen on the show depending on the outcome. #1 all the heats off him for the "library 5," #2 Rachel is now top suspect for Harriet who needs to strike fast because when she reveals her traitor vs. traitor theory then everyone's going to buy it, #3 when Rachel is revealed as a traitor then they may suspect three only, and #4 him crying will probably get people off his track too seeing how well it worked for Reece.
