    Possible Storyline For Miz

    Well it's a bizarre concept of nothing else

    Goldberg replies to rumour

    I'm not doubting his aura tbh, that's obvious from how drawn in the crowd was into him. I think I've mentioned he's quite possibly the single most charismatic man in wrestling history for getting to be such a money magnet with so little. He had no mic skills but made people care, he had limited...

    Punk vs Ambrose

    Has heel vs heel ever worked? Where is the investment if you have no one to back? It's a face /face feud for us as we're fans of the guys however.

    Quote the Raven never more.

    I'd have been keen to see Raven vs Mankind in 97, plus vs Taker they would have all meshed incredibly well imo. As for the Tax comment I think injuries were a bigger issue than WWEs booking, after all he ended Kurts winning streak and look forward how heavily they invested in him..

    Sadly I am, I didn't watch back in the day though so that's probably the issue.

    Cheryl Cole vs Kim Kardashian

    Beyond all the "I'm heartbroken because of what Ashley did stuff?" she doesn't change it because Chery Cole is a brand name, not Cheryl Tweedy. It's a sad observation but it seems to be the case from my perspective.

    If not John Cena, then who?

    Wasn't Batista around 35 when he got his big push though? I suppose that would have been a factor, probably resulting in further pushing of Orton actually.

    If not John Cena, then who?

    Nope, none of the guys who were over enough were reliable enough either persoanally - Hardy and RVD, injury wise - Edge and Angle, the lighter TNA schedule preserved Kurt but both still missed a lot of time with injuries and general lack of charisma for Lashley.

    Gimmick matches-Your thoughts?

    I really dig Lockdown tbh, it still feels special as they don't do cage matches too often and LL is usually a pretty lengthy feud at least. I understand people like that variety feel but I'd rather they planned ahead and made sure feuds came to a head at the right time, it'd help fix HIAC...

    Quote the Raven never more.

    In this thread we pay homage to one of the greatest psychological wrestlers of all time, his grunge look managed to blend into the chaos of ECW. His cold interviews are stuff of wrestling legend, no one captured a dark character with the exception of Jake the Snake IMO. Sure he was never a...

    Your views on heel referees

    I agree when they overshadow the match, however like a good manager I honestly feel they can add depth to a match.

    Have you seen a 5* match from 2013 yet?

    Samoa Joe vs Christopher Daniels vs AJ Styles disagrees. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bbdk_PP4rRk Also Flair vs Steamboat in that chinatown brawl IMO.

    Your views on heel referees

    I'm trying to get more and more into Lucha Libre, specifically CMLL I'm noticing it's more and more common for a match to involve a referee with a deliberate bias, a great example is the match below, the slow counts are the main storytelling aspect within it. Every count either makes you expect...

    Nigel McGuinness - The greatness that never was

    Should have been a star, imagine Aries with more size and you have Nigel. I'm a fanboy sure but he had talent which just translates onto the big screen.

    Have you seen a 5* match from 2013 yet?

    So far I haven't from any company. The only ones I can think of which have come close are Tanahashi / Okada at WrestleKingdom 7, Nakumura vs Sakuraba and Rush vs El Terrible mainly due to the slow counting heel ref telling a great story. Cena vs Punk is a contender too odly enough.

    Goldberg replies to rumour

    Huh? How can you make such a bold claim. If things go as they seem to plan with him don't bet on it.
