The comedy stuff turns some people off but he’s just so good at it. And at 52 the rate at which he can go is pretty wild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll wait and see where they go before I judge it too harshly. WWE storytelling has been strong lately so there may something there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The going theory on the handoff was something of Roman’s, likely a bead from his Ula Fala (a necklace chiefs wear in Samoan culture), and implying the Rock did something to Roman off screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUDub 11,231 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 lol they showed the footage. All it did was prove that Punk is a reliable narrator and Tony Khan is a spineless money mark. “Feared for my life” lol. Schiavone looked like he died a little inside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUDub 11,231 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 (edited) Perfect microcosm of the difference between the promotions. *Punk hurt in AEW* “no 5 star bangers nothing we can do with him” *Punk hurt in WWE* “how about we do a story where he makes Drew’s life a living hell in a buildup until he can go again” Edited April 11 by AUDub 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUDub 11,231 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 and then these lunatics pull this for a cheap ratings bump. For one it went as Punk said to a T. I mean if you sync the Helwani interview to the footage it’s a perfect match. Practically a narration. Punk comes out of this looking credible as hell. For another can you IMAGINE Drew and Punk’s texts right now. They’ve gotta be giddy over the money this made them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUDub 11,231 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 just for the men and as singles. 1. Nature Boy Ric Flair. Not much else needs to be said. Had it all. Technical proficiency, in ring psychology, promos, the works. As complete a pro wrestler as there will ever be. 2. Hogan in any incarnation. Wrestling’s top draw across multiple eras as both a face and a heel is no mean feat. Weaker than Flair technically, but few will ever understand how to work a crowd or tell a story like him again. 3. Stone Cold. The ultimate badass, “stick it to the man” champion. Wrestling’s biggest draw in its most lucrative era. Sure they WWEd it up eventually, but Austin vs McMahon was literal perfection. Had to change his style after his injury, but his charisma made that shortcoming no obstacle. 4. The Rock. Wrestling’s most charismatic man and a Rembrandt with the mic. Had a career path a lot like Roman’s with all the initial “go home” heat from WWE trying to force him down our throats as the next big thing. Then the Nation of Domination happened and he became God’s gift to the promo. Up there with Flair and Michaels for best seller in the business. 5. Shawn Michaels. Basically the second coming of Flair with a *better* work rate. Like Flair he could carry a broom to a 3* match. 6. The Undertaker. Probably the only wrestler alive that could get an “I am an undead mortician biker zombie that can teleport around” gimmick over and *keep* it over to this day. 7. Sting. The star of the hottest angle WCW ever pulled off, even if they did botch the end of it. Crow Sting basically was my childhood lol. 8. Hitman. The biggest draw in the business during what was a transitional era. Weaker on the mic, but probably the best in ring technician ever. 9. Macho Man. Second fiddle to Hogan he may have been but no top 10 list can skip him. 10. Roman Reigns. At the end of the day wrestling is about telling a story, and no one has a better one than Roman Reigns, in Kayfabe or in reality. Honorable mentions Angle. Another one with an argument for best technician. Rikodozan. Probably the best Japanese wrestler in history. Inoki. The other side of the coin with Rikodozan. Founded NJPW, which makes him influential as hell. Jericho. Promo god. Needs to quit killing his legacy though. Trips. Great career, and with an even better one as an exec in front of him. El Santo. The ur example of luchador enmascarado. A national hero in Mexico to this day Rey Misterio. Practically every mainstream wrestling fan’s introduction to high flying luchadors. Bill Goldberg. Star of WCW’s last white hot angle. Kept WCW afloat just long enough for Vince Russo to take it out back and shoot it. Eddie Guerrero. A wrestling genius taken from us far too soon. Should do one for tag teams and the women. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My version of The Rock went toe to toe with Austin, Hogan, HHH, Jericho, Undertaker. He teamed with Foley. He was a hero. You can’t just turn into a generic Hollywood a**hole after all that. Didn’t work. The entrance theme was awesome though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
