Swerved season 2 sucks. At least the first episodes. Wrestlers pranking random people is not cool.

Anybody going to the event in Waco on Friday or the event in CS on Saturday? I'll be at the one Saturday.

Apparently Orton is gonna be a surprise 7th MITB entrant....even though it was originally supposed to be 7 ppl

So I don't know why this thought popped into my brain, but I was thinking about how to get some serious heat from the fans on a heel. Has anyone ever come out to the wrong music? I'm not talking about impersonating another wrestler, but just to get the fans hopes up?

I can just picture the start of Raw when everyone is waiting to see who the first person to come out is and "IF YOU SMELLLLLLLL....WHAT THE ROCK....IS COOKING!!!" comes on. The place would be going nuts! Everyone at home watching would be up out of there chairs. But then Heel#1 comes out and says on the mic, "did you seriously think he was here? wow what idiots." And then continue on with whatever promo he had. The fans would absolutely hate him.

Has this ever happened? Is that even a good idea or something that only works in my head? Can any wrestler out there now pull this off?

I think Shawn Michaels did that to Bret Hart and a midget came out. That could have been a good way for them to promote swerved on the network.

Yup, you're right Dan. Wow, what a promo.

That worked so well because of the location of the show and HBKs history with Hart.

HBK always knew how to play a heel to perfection.

One of my favorite promos of all time. I miss HBK.

I decided to watch NXT Takeover tonight before bed. The American Alpha vs Revival match was awesome

Read the first page of this thread.

I thought takeover was really good. Just wish the club had interfered or something

I've never watched TNA, but this is awfully entertaining.

I've seen American revival twice, I can't figure if they are more Kurt anglish or Steiner brothers.

They remind me of a more charismatic World's Greatest Tag Team, which was originally part of Team Angle

WTF was that Hahaha

I like AA a lot.

Becky

U have a gud tim at the ressling show bro?

Becky is my current fave.

Mine too. Though as an FYI, Eva Marie's rack looked a lot bigger in person than what it looks like on tv

How was the crowd? Energetic?

It depended on the match.

Enzo and Cass had everybody loud, but they were also in the opening match.

I was surprised at how loud the "we want big show" chant was during his tag match with Kane vs Rowan and Strowman.

Fairly big pop for Goldust, and when R Truth ran in to save him and their antics afterward.

The women's match was a 6 man tag match, and it seemed like everybody wanted Becky, who worked the majority of the match in the "partner in distress" role before Sasha got the win

The loudest the crowd got for an entrance by far was with Ambrose for the main event. Owens was a close second though...and the triple threat match with Zaym was really entertaining

There were a couple of other matches also.

Rusev beat Titus, and Rusev did a better job of drawing boos and USA chants than Titus did of getting cheers

Zack Ryder beat Viktor in a good match, but pretty dead

On an unrelated note: Xavier Woods is entertaining as hell.

Here they go trying to get Roman back in good graces

I loved that Enzo and Franny promo

Me too! Also a little surprised they were allowed to go through with it

Anyone else enjoying KO's dry sense of humor promos? I get a gd laugh outta his commentary n back n forth banter w other guys
