Ah yes, thus continues the great history of wrestlers assaulting reporters/hosts.

TIL Fred Ottman (Tugboat) and Jerry Sags are the uncles of Cody and Dustin Rhodes. They are each married to one of Dusty's sisters.

Love it, but wish it didn't have the WWE logo.

It’s centered under “Boys.”

I agree it’s be much better without

If you ask a professional wrestler to perform any sort of move on you, and you yourself are not a professional wrestler, you're going to have a bad time.

Rhyno/Rhino retired last night apparently. Last great ECW star and my favorite spear in the business. His Gore through tables was spectacular.

According to people in attendance, he didn't actually announce anything. He waved, bowed, and went behind the curtain. Looks like the dirt sheets are reporting bullshit. In other words, FDM.

Yea, just saw another post saying he's not retired. Who knows. Even if he did retire he'd come back to Royal Rumble ten years from now as a surprise entrant.

I just read through the results and it sounds like another **** show. Also who the hell are Lucha House Party? And why would they split up Drew and Dolph? And why is Baron Corbin still a thing?

I'm in the minority but I can't stand Ronda. Her MMA career and the WWE's incessant pushing of her punching spots drives me insane. I think she's a walking/talking cringe machine.

I tuned in just to see if they could top last week. It became so bad I had to keep watching. So jokes on me I guess. But it was awful.
Sasha and Bayley had another Q & A where people in the crowd asked them questions like "If you could have any super power, what would it be." And Dean Ambrose did half a promo wearing a gas mask because his gimmick now is that he's a germaphobe?? :?

Also, this whole Dean Ambrose heel thing where he's doing lame city spots is basically WWE in a nutshell. Glad I only follow through gifs and short videos on reddit.

Everybody wanted unhinged,psycho Dean Ambrose back and what we got is the same wacky Dean except now he calls the hometown fans smelly and rips on local sports teams.

The miss isn't the issue with the women's wrestling, it is the beat before. There is a consistent pause by both wrestlers to set up each spot. With the men one of them often has to hold while the other sells into position, but the first then starts moving before the second is "set". The second is "set" basically when contact is made. With the women you see a consistent trend of both wrestlers setting up and pausing and then the spot starts.

It's like the old branching video games where you would pick "A" or "B: and then the game would do that. A or B? B. Game pops to the start of B and then B happens. A or B? A. Game pops to A and then A happens. It's a flicker in the flow. That is why some of the women's matches seem SOOOOO much better than others. When both of the wrestlers do not need that pause the flow is great and the match is great. Otherwise pause it is basically pause like watching a pause bad streaming pause video pause.

Also another opinion that I see vilified constantly in a world of body shaming, etc. Nia Jax I feel has gotten uncomfortably big even the past year and it's not big and beautiful, it's increased danger of her hurting other wrestlers even more than she does now.
