Didn't he overturn a few trucks? I'm sure there was a period of a few months where he was just wrecking shit every week. It was pretty fun.
It was only fun because he tipped them over when he was feuding with Roman

I liked him when he was doing comic-book stuff and generally silent.

But as soon as he got the catchphrase "Get these hands!" he was out of his element. They had him doing promos most weeks when it isn't his strength. The segment with Heyman and Lesnar showed that, he forgot his lines during a big promo and it was awkward as hell.

Was like when they had Roman doing Cena type promos
You have this Samoan badass acting like Cena when he should have been more like Joe

Braun has a great monster voice (unlike Brock)
Think short effective promos are the best way. Don't mind the get these hands saying, for him a catch phrase means more money, people chanting it, etc

Then again you're all trolls for pretending to like that El gigante wannabe

Out of the wrestling loop, so random question, all I seem to see or hear about is WWE and AEW. What happened to TNA? Did they finally die?

No, Impact wrestling still ongoing. Think they had a female (Tessa) as the world champion. Problem is TNA can put on some great great shows, but it will go unnoticed as it has years and years of mess (and as far as I remember or know, a crappy network or channel esp when compared to what they had).

TNA / Dixies issue was always picking Russo/Bischoff/Hogan over Heyman.

Then everyone found out she's a racist and does scat videos for pay.

Never change TNA.

So much about New Jack is just insane. He's fascinating in a way.
nice one

So watching it I dont think they mentioned something I heard about which was that New Jack jumped off a building onto someone. I didnt watch ECW so I only really heard things about New Jack rather than saw him, so I learned plenty from that episode. Crazy guy

Hey lads. I was just thinking of the time Lesnar cleared the barricade with a jump chasing after Rollins. He made the jump look like it was 3 inches rather than 3 feet. Anyone remember when this was? I think its after Wrestlemania 31 but I'm not sure

Better episode of Dynamite this week. Really enojyed Lance Archer squashing Marco Stunt, Jericho and Vanguard 1 and the opener between Kenny and Trent. Trent nearly killed him on that backdrop suplex.

Re: the TNT title tournament. Dispappointed that some of the matches are just rematches of stuff we've already seen lately. Who do we think will win? I think maybe Archer beats Cody in the final. I would like to see Sammy win it tbh. He's been my favourite wrestler to watch lately.

Had to laugh at how they announced they changed to the Goldberg/Roman match.

They did nothing. No angle, no explanation. Just advertised Goldberg vs Braun and that was it.

HHH implied there would be a creative angle to it, to the stage where I was looking forward to how this happened.

Loved Wyatt and Cenas segment, although Cena did bury him too much, and Wyatt has to win now.

I’m intrigued in this hacker angle, they should’ve had Roman be out ‘injured’, Braun replace him and win the title and then have the hacker reveal it was braun who did it. It was dumb to just change the match, but I guess they’re restricted with it all being pre-recorded? Maybe there’ll be more on it at mania?

Cena vs Wyatt has been great and Wyatt will beat him.Cena is such a good talker

Hacker makes me think Braun mowed down Roman with a 2 footed tackle that was nowhere near the ball

We need more matches like Brock vs punk

I think hhh has got the most offence on him, of course :lol:

The stuff with Mandy and Otis is great
