Lots of charisma, long prominent career, not afraid to put younger talent over, can still go. Yes, Y2J is one of the greats.

Jericho is fantastic in just about every way...and he paced himself throughout his career and took time off when necessary which only helped him stay over for as long as he has

The best thing Jericho does is how he goes away before his character gets stale. It's a luxury full-time guys dont have, but Jericho is really good at sensing when to step away to remain fresh.

Was surprised Nakamura won, I'm guessing they'll have him win and then have Corbin cash in, it's a way to get the belt from Jinder to Corbin without having a heel on heel match.

why would you fucking advertise that Finn Balor is doing his demon entrance at Summerslam? I knew we'd be getting it based on Finn's reaction to me asking him about it, but it'd be a nice little surprise. They're 0-2 on using that entrance properly now.

This one doesnt bother me, the first time they definitely did it wrong, but at least this makes sense in story.

Well I don't see the harm in advertising it, we all knew it was happening. Its better to have a storyline reason for him to do it rather than it just happening.

I was watching some old wrestling clips today on youtubes, I forgot how good Tatanka was before they turned him. The match with HBK at WrestleMania is a great match! After they turned him its like they didn't know what to do with him.


Also going back to your guys posts a few back about coolest thing you saw in person. We went to a house for WcW just after Macho Man had the knee surgery and left the Red and Black NWO.
Great triple threat luchadore match with Rey, Psycosis, and maybe Eddy or Chavo? Meng vs Goldberg (in which it had a finish like their Nitro, Meng had him beat, but didn't keep him in the tonga death grip for the 3 count), Hitman vs Sting, and the main event was Hogan vs Flair. The whole card was great and, the finish were all clean from what I remember. Which was rare in WcW in those days.

Summerslam predictions:

- Ambrose to turn heel
- Brock dropping the title to Strawman
- Bray Wyatt to be a fat bastard who can't wrestle and job for the umpteenth time
- Big show to accidentally eat Enzo

I think Enzo may heel turn, Dean maybe eventually but not yet

Smackdown last night was pretty funny because Corbin is awful

I've been hearing they want to put Enzo and Cass back together, which is probably the best move, neither guy really works without the other.

but saying its going to happen kinda shits on the storytelling aspect of the show. I don't know why you're fighting me on this. It makes sense in the story, but advertising that he's going to put on his makeup totally takes away from the story of Finn having a demon inside him that can get awakened at certain times
