    ReplyDelete
  16. Extant1979 - Mr. Cable AccessJanuary 25, 2015 at 4:58 PM

    Please, Hoss, I'm wearing riot gear in preparation of Bryan losing. That knife will do nothing to me!

    ReplyDelete
  17. suddenly Wyatt is being discussed on other sites as a probable winner. Who out of Cena, Rollins or Lesnar could he have a WM Main event level feud with?

    ReplyDelete
  18. Just say wrestlers, goddammit.

    ReplyDelete
  19. MikeyMike, JuggernautJanuary 25, 2015 at 4:58 PM

    You all ready for the Roman party tonight?

    ReplyDelete
  20. Jesus. The promo for NXT just screams:

    "Hey, remember what wrestling used to be?"

    ReplyDelete
  21. If Rock fights and wins tonight, will they call him Rumble Johnson?

    ReplyDelete
  22. Remember kids, do not sports entertain at home.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Fun Fact: Winning number will be 21

    ReplyDelete
  24. Zack Ryder is still in the "Don't try this at home" spot. And they say he's been buried...

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  26. Sexy Flexy Biff KensingtonJanuary 25, 2015 at 4:59 PM

    Fatassery is more like it. I decided to grab a burrito from Taco Bell for lunch, then some chips and beer for tonight. We opened the chips early, and it was a poor decision.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Fair enough.


    :: runs over you with hijacked ice cream truck ::

    ReplyDelete
  28. It's ok. I only do pro wrestling at home.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  31. Extant1979 - Mr. Cable AccessJanuary 25, 2015 at 4:59 PM

    Alright, predictions:


    New Day wins, Cesaro looks like a chump.
    Usos beat Miz & Mizdow. - kicks off a feud between the two.
    Ascension wins, then get punked out by the Dudleyz.
    Bellas win because of who they're fucking.
    Brock retains the WWE title
    Bryan wins the Rumble.

    ReplyDelete
  32. One burrito and some chips give you tummy problems?


    what're you, a 12 year old lil girl?

    ReplyDelete
  33. The 8 year old in me wants cesaro to win the rumble

    ReplyDelete
  34. I assume the song playing on a loop on the YT channel while I wait for the preshow to start is the official theme for the show. It's boring.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Yes, I only have a GED and thus unable to make my own prediction unless I take it from the elite section of his website.

    ReplyDelete
  36. It always has been compare WCW and WWF during the Monday Night Wars and there's no contest.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I'm mean that really got out of hand.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Extant1979 - Mr. Cable AccessJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:00 PM

    If it didn't kill the Rock in 2002, I'll survive.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Good evening.

    ReplyDelete
  40. My stream has froze twice now.

    ReplyDelete
  41. This is one of the shittiest undercards I've seen in a long time.

    ReplyDelete
  42. My body is ready to receive the Rumble.

  44. Is there tension at Kensington Enterprises?


    TUNE IN TOMORROW NIGHT TO BoD RUMBLE AND FIND OUT

    ReplyDelete
  45. Bunny miscommunication in the kickoff match leads to Rose unmasking the Bunny during the Rumble

    ReplyDelete
  46. Don't let us down, Philly crowd.

    ReplyDelete
  47. I just said that to Lindsey Lohan's agent last night.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Old WCW PPVs almost make no sense due to the lack of video packages putting matches in perspective. When you do have videos, they're poorly edited.

    ReplyDelete
  49. WWE Part Timers
    From the Makers of Mortal Kombat

    ReplyDelete
  50. heh...that had me giggling like a little girl.

    ReplyDelete
  51. You get HHH in a suit, deal with it!

    ReplyDelete
  52. It's actually really quite an achievement, graphically and art-direction wise. Not the most fun game ever, but impressive.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Sexy Flexy Biff KensingtonJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:02 PM

    ... A bean burrito, half a bag of chips and Hershey's minis. I haven't had junk food in a long time.

    ReplyDelete
  54. You know why he picked 21? The 2 is for the number of homes he owns... the 1 is for the number of homes he could easily afford.

    ReplyDelete
  55. When did Adam Levine join the preshow team?

    ReplyDelete
  56. MikeyMike, JuggernautJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:02 PM

    Lol what happened to Riley?

    ReplyDelete
  57. My predictions.
    6 Man Tag - Cesaro lone survivor.
    tag title - USOs win, Miz smacks Mizdow, leading to them interacting in the Rumble
    Ascension squashes NAO
    Natalya/Paige win to set up 4 way title match
    Brock retains the WWE title
    Bryan wins the Rumble.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Sexy Flexy Biff KensingtonJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:02 PM

    If I can quit shitting first...

    ReplyDelete
  59. One of the things WWE never picked up on that WCW nailed perfectly was how to stack an undercard. I bought my fair share of WCW PPVs largely on the undercard alone. The main events were white hot shit, but as long as you had a tight cruiserweight title match, a TV title match, and a lucha six-man, I was THERE.

    ReplyDelete
  60. We find your optimism...amusing.

  61. Corey graves looks like a giant douche

    ReplyDelete
  62. Wait, is Corey Graves supposed to be handsome? He looks like a skellington.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Surprise entrant!

    ReplyDelete
  64. Corey Graves is here to fuck your girlfriend... and record it.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Adam "Colorado" CurryJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:03 PM

    I'm I the only one that thinks they booked that shit undercard because a dead crowd is better than a crowd just shitting all over everything? Fucking hell, I know I've said how bad it sucks, but actually seeing it? Jesus...

    ReplyDelete
  66. Who is this blonde? She is annoying but more bangable than every diva on the roster.

    ReplyDelete
  67. The DC version it's based on is fun for a 5 minute diversion.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Remember that wrestling game where it was all cartoony and shit where Undertaker would uppercut you and you'd fly 15 feet in the air while ghosts flew out of his fists and shit? I miss that game.

    ReplyDelete
  69. To all those people who said you'll never get a decent job with a neck tattoo ... Corey Graves is in a TUX at work. So yeah.

    ReplyDelete
  70. It's jsut a matter of time until Renee gets a real job.

    ReplyDelete
  71. So bad. Triple Threat title match will be really good I'm sure, but Christ what a bunch of throwaway RAW matches they have here

    ReplyDelete
  72. There's so much talent there that's just being wasted.

    ReplyDelete
  73. Adam "Colorado" CurryJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:03 PM

    ReplyDelete
  74. Extant1979 - Mr. Cable AccessJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:03 PM

    HEYMAN & The Masters of the Universe sign wins the evening early.

    ReplyDelete
  75. That Heyman poster/sign in the background is amazing

    ReplyDelete
  76. all those words, and my mind gets stuck on "white hot shit."


    I have issues.

    ReplyDelete
  77. Corey Graves looks like a junkie Vanilla Ice

    ReplyDelete
  78. Renee Young, Dean Ambrose's girlfriend.

    ReplyDelete
  79. It's fun to pass the time in the bathroom.

    ReplyDelete
  80. Corey Graves looks like an ex con

    ReplyDelete
  81. Probably Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game.

    ReplyDelete
  82. That is right.

    ReplyDelete
  83. Rumble sells itself. That's how it should be. If Brock is supposed to leave with the belt, I would have led the proverbial lamb to slaughter against him.


    If only to keep Rollins & Cena in the Rumble match itself.

    ReplyDelete
  84. I suddenly hate Dean

    ReplyDelete
  85. MikeyMike, JuggernautJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:04 PM

    Anything can happen, MAGGLE!

    ReplyDelete
  86. Renee Young
    Dean Ambrose's Current Girlfriend, My Future Wife

    ReplyDelete
  87. Hacksaw isn't literate enough to have made that tweet.

    ReplyDelete
  88. Didn't Shawn have a mirror that he'd drop on you?

    ReplyDelete
  89. What!? Dean, my man

    ReplyDelete
  90. Extant1979 - Mr. Cable AccessJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:04 PM

    Wins the evening early!

    ReplyDelete
  91. Or the face of hepatitis.

    ReplyDelete
  92. Shit they're actually discussing the Rock and building him up.

    ReplyDelete
  93. Rock tossed by Rusev then

    ReplyDelete
  94. This one was the best. Played kinda like Mortal Kombat.

    ReplyDelete
  95. Yeah. The WCW undercards were the best part of the shows.

    ReplyDelete
  96. Adam "Colorado" CurryJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:05 PM

    At least a giant douche is clean.

    ReplyDelete
  97. MikeyMike, JuggernautJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:05 PM

    I don't like the haircut Renee has on most women but she rocks it nicely.

    ReplyDelete
  98. Dude. There are not sufficient words to express my disappointment.

    ReplyDelete
  99. WCW main events were the sizzle... the undercard was the steak.

    ReplyDelete
  100. We've gotten spoiled. I'm going back and watching all the Manias. There's some hot garbage on those early undercards.

    ReplyDelete
  101. Lana throwing it down on The Rock.

    ReplyDelete
  102. Nah, if she was going to do that she'd have already jumped ship.

    ReplyDelete
  103. I was thinking the same thing. Girlfriend makes it work.

    ReplyDelete
  104. MikeyMike, JuggernautJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:05 PM

    Hope he wins the Rumble

    ReplyDelete
  105. Are they really going with Rusev vs Rock at Mania? Geez. Gotta build him up more for Cena I suppose. Sad.

    ReplyDelete
  106. TEW Update: After the May PPV I had Triple H suspend Roman Reigns for "assaulting an employee" after accidentally spearing the timekeeper through the barricade during a match. Then at the MITB match, he goes rogue and returns from his suspension to screw over Golden Boy Sheamus, giving Cena the win (who will uncharacteristically cash-in on Bryan a week later only to get destroyed by Brock Lesnar). Then I'll have him beat Sheamus on Raw to win his job back.

    ReplyDelete
  107. We know Rock doesn't scare you Lana... you eye fucked him the entire time you were in the ring together.

    ReplyDelete
  108. Sooooo Rock-Rusev at Mania?

    ReplyDelete
  109. It was funny how obvious it was too. Anyone could see that .

    ReplyDelete
  110. "The Eater of Worlds"? What the hell?!?!?

    ReplyDelete
  111. The UK version of the Network is 15 second behind live for some reason. Restarted it and it's exactly the same.

    ReplyDelete
  112. I can't quite put my finger on why, but I absolutely loathe Byron Saxton.

    ReplyDelete
  113. There's some hot ass garbage on this. I'd take the Red fucking Rooster getting squashed over a bunch of jobbers the WWE doesn't care about.

    ReplyDelete
  114. Is that reddit guy giving away spoilers still doing that?

    ReplyDelete
  115. There's one guy picking Reigns.

    ReplyDelete
  116. She likes caramel skinned men it seems.

    ReplyDelete
  117. Booker T chant. I want in on that.

    ReplyDelete
  118. ok, bought the network to see the boogeyman. Apparently I can only watch on my phone though

    ReplyDelete
  119. He had really bad wrestling pants.

    ReplyDelete
  120. I thought roman reigns would say suffering succatash

    ReplyDelete
  121. Extant1979 - Mr. Cable AccessJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:07 PM

    Wyatt, Reigns, Rusev all picked by the panel to win the Rumble. And Renee with the smart pick!

    ReplyDelete
  122. Gimmick infringement cried Galactus!

    ReplyDelete
  123. Nah, he got butthurt at people calling his credibility into question and bailed.

    ReplyDelete
  124. How about some Adorable Adrian Adonis vs. Uncle Elmer to tide you over!

    ReplyDelete
  125. Bryan, Reigns, Rusev, Wyatt are the preshow panel's picks. Booker T specifically throws cold water on Bryan's chances. Hmmm.

    ReplyDelete
  126. Adam "Colorado" CurryJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:07 PM

    See, I can't even get excited about the Rumble. And it's not that if Reigns wins I'll be pissed, but WWE has totally forgotten how to book it. The last 4 have been shit, and I don't expect anything better this year.

    ReplyDelete
  127. That would be incredible. I'd totally mark out for that. I am the problem.

    ReplyDelete
  128. That means Randy Orton wins

    ReplyDelete
  129. I'd probably go gay for The Rock.

    I mean what?

    ReplyDelete
  130. Fandango looking very rapey there

    ReplyDelete
  131. Don't want in on that chant so much anymore.

    ReplyDelete
  132. Renee is cute but she isn't that hot. She looks like your friends girlfriend or something.

    ReplyDelete
  133. Haven't we already seen that match a million times?

    ReplyDelete
  134. I love how this turns us all into nitpicking detectives.

    ReplyDelete
  135. Extant1979 - Mr. Cable AccessJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:08 PM

    Four? I say it's been shit for much longer than that. The 2009 show sucked. 2008 was saved by the Cena surprise.

    ReplyDelete
  136. Haven't been that up to date on dirt sheets lately, what NXT guys are supposed to be in the Rumble tonite of any? Philly would blow their load if Sami came out

    ReplyDelete
  137. She's attainably hot. That's why she's so desirable. Like, if I ran into her at a bar after a show, I feel reasonably certain I could make that happen.


    I mean, I couldn't. But I could envision the means by which I could.

    ReplyDelete
  138. Extant1979 - Mr. Cable AccessJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:08 PM

    Nobody thinks Ambrose can win.

    ReplyDelete
  139. That top is doing it for me.

    ReplyDelete
  140. I think I'll watch the Pro Bowl instead lol

    ReplyDelete
  141. Exactly. Her entire appeal is that she's attractive, but attractive enough than fans think "hey, if I have a good night..."

    ReplyDelete
  142. She's seen what a loser he is.

    ReplyDelete
  143. Haven't heard of anyone specifically.

    ReplyDelete
  144. I like how all the male announcers they keep getting look like guys you want to punch in the face.

    ReplyDelete
  145. He's The Bunny.


    Did you saw the last Cage of Death?

    ReplyDelete
  146. Much more interested in the how then the who regarding this PPV. Woohoo Rumble!

    ReplyDelete
  147. Every bitch has her price.


    Or, can be knocked out and dragged off.


    Whichever.

    ReplyDelete
  148. This backstage guy is whiter than Tebow.

    ReplyDelete
  149. Extant1979 - Mr. Cable AccessJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:09 PM

    Like the friend's girlfriend I slept with just for the hell of it? Yes, please.

    ReplyDelete
  150. She has ugly arms. Weird complaint I know... but it is something I look at.

    ReplyDelete
  151. Renee has a haircut, though it's sadly not the more extensive one that would indicate she's fresh off of a break-up and is ready to suck however many dicks it takes to make Dean Ambrose jealous

    ReplyDelete
  152. Renee remind me of michelle beadle

    ReplyDelete
  153. Did not. What happened at it?

    ReplyDelete
  154. PLEASE BUY THE NETWORK!!! We have investors in two weeks!

    ReplyDelete
  155. ... and she's into wrestling.

    ReplyDelete
  156. Extant1979 - Mr. Cable AccessJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:10 PM

    ^ Best in the world. Trying to live up to it.

    ReplyDelete
  157. He's not at the moment, but he could end up in anyway.

    ReplyDelete
  158. Her Wrestlemania outfit last year was where it was at.

    https://uproxx.files.wordpress.com/2014/04/renee-young-espn-wwe.png?w=650

    ReplyDelete
  159. Is she? I think its probably just a paycheck.

    ReplyDelete
  160. I'm all up in this social media lounge, ready for some Rumble

    ReplyDelete
  161. so kofi isn't in the rumble? Isn't that why he's still on the roster?

    ReplyDelete
  162. In theory: he lost his qualifier on Smackdown to Harper.

    ReplyDelete
  163. Is it possible there's some envy there, like you kinda wish you had their job, which makes you want to punch them in the face?

    ReplyDelete
  164. Is Natalya still mad at Paige for dry humping her?

    ReplyDelete
  165. Yep. That's the ticket.

    ReplyDelete
  166. Mitch, The GodfatherJanuary 25, 2015 at 5:10 PM

    So is Paige a face now?

    ReplyDelete
  167. Oh yeah. So really, Bryan-Ziggler-Ryback should be first 3.

    ReplyDelete
  168. I'm not the biggest CZW, but I enjoyed the ME. BLK Jeez got the belt in a 4way cage of death.

    ReplyDelete
  169. Conference call should only be year-end, so Rumble won't be included.

    ReplyDelete
  170. i'm having a social media lounge added on to my house

    ReplyDelete
  171. Nope. Yet Alex Riley is, for some reason. I imagine they need jobbers for Reigns to bounce.

    ReplyDelete
  172. HAHAHA!! He Runs in and runs to other side of the ring and falls over the top rope. No one touches him.

    ReplyDelete
  173. A hotter Beadle.

    ReplyDelete
  174. On my face. Yes.
