    Blows my mind two guys can never wrestle each other ever, then just get in the ring and do that. Wow. Doing the black arrow knowing you’re going to land on someone’s knees takes huge balls

    Would be a really weird move for it to come full circle and Wardlow help MJF when he is back but he’s going to need backup

    Roderick Strong is our generation's Dean Malenko

    Brilliant technician but there's a lack of a spark that gets me really invested. It's not that he's not trying to work a character but it just fails to connect with me.

    O'Rielly however has the potential to be a great underdog babyface



    Edit: I'm 30 minutes behind and Taz just said the same thing about Strong and Malenko lol

    Outside of suplexing people, Hook is still really bad in the ring.

    He's still raw but those suplexes are a thing of beauty. He reminds me of 1999/early 2000 Kurt Angle, who was smooth on day one whenever he threw guys around, but when it came to the strikes, kicks, and traditional "pro" stuff, he looked really rough around the edges

    It’s unbelievable how tone deaf TK is with Jericho given how much the live crowds hate him AND how much the IWC does as well
