Got bored after a few minutes. It as fun in the beginning but it couldn't keep up the momentum of enjoyability.

Oh yeah, Max Landis has a lot of famous friends, and apparently wrestling friends. Unrelated to Wrestling he made a very similar video a few years back about The Death and Return of Superman. Also hilarious, also full of cameos.

I only watch bits and pieces of wrestling, but I've been binging the last couple of days because I'm staying with a friend who is a big fan. Getting to the stage where I start to yell at the TV again. Even though I'm sure a "real fan" would yell different things or like different wrestlers (for example, with his mouth shut, I like Reigns). Still think it's maybe time to take a break.

Reigns is best when he doesn't talk, or if he gets a better voice acting coach and no catchphrase.

He has a face built for staring. I would be happy just to see him do that, all the time.

Lacklustre ending to Raw.

Which made me a bit sad, as it was a great RAW overall. The women got time to perform, Bray Wyatt continues to be amazing, Mizdow stuff was great, #AXELMANIA ran wild. And then we end with...a tug-of-war after Paul Heyman talked about how Lesnar would mess up anyone who came to take his title.

Lesnar has resigned with the WWE. Maybe he'll retain at Wrestlemania.

Oh, cool. Then my prediction for mania is shenanigans, and Brock retains. He can't win clean, or all this promo for Reigns is wasted, and I don't think he'll lose it clean, cause even with all the promotion, I don't think people really believe Reigns can win. He could lose it due to shenanigans, I suppose, but that seems less likely.

Also, I now really want there to be a wrestler called Shenanigans.

Wrestlemania Predicitions:

Wyatt over Undertaker (squassh match would be good)
Damien Mizdow for Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royale
Stong over Triple H
Paige and AJ over the Bellas
Cena over Ruzev (even though I want Ruzev to win)
Rollins over Orton
Ziggler retrieves the briefcase
Cesaro and Kidd retain the titles
Lesnar Vs Reigns I'm in two minds (Lesnar retains what I want to happen or Reigns wins after a betrayl by Heyman)

That's Sheamus' new gimmick ;)

Also if Reigns hang with Brock, but get defeated by too many Suplexes say, that could be a way to do it, I want a shenanigans free match, have them after the bout (when Rollins and the Stooges V2 cash in)

Perfectly booked ending as far as I can see. Lesnar still looks like a monster after manhandling reigns for most of the match. Reigns held his own, looking strong, but not putting the title on him means the crowd might calm down. And Rollins looks smart and can be on TV more than Brock.

I like it a lot.

As soon as Rollins came out my friend started screaming rapid-fire predictions on how the match was going to end. He was more or less wrong on everything but I suppose that shows the level of excitement for those last few minutes.

That being said, Wyatt vs Undertaker was still the highlight of the night for me.

I figured I'd rather necro this thread than post a new one, but we've lost Dusty Rhodes today. :(

Rest in Peace Dusty, a true legend of the industry and someone who had a large impact on my childhood just from watching him on TV. Thoughts with Dustin and Cody Rhodes.

Thank you Dusty -Clap clap clapclapclap-

I never watched him either, but have had tons of fun playing against him in WWE 2k14. The man is a beast in that game and I'm sure he had a tremendous impact on wrestling and the showmanship that goes with it in his day.
