GOT Wrestle Fest Fan Thread

After last night I'd love to see the Wyatts vs The Shield in an Elimination Chamber match. Would have to be altered slightly in that it would be two starting (one of each) then every 5 minutes or whatever it is two people are released (again one of each) rather than the usual one. You could do the usual way I guess but obviously you then have handicap stuff going on.

Another reason it would be good is that you could do the split of the Shield quite well in the chamber.
 
Wrestling is a sport Kurt, but that's the amateur stuff you see at the Olympics and Commonwealth Games. The likes of WWE, TNA et al is staged for entertainment value, hence the name Sports Entertainment

Is correct.

If you want the pure sports version, stick to the amateur/college version. That goes for Wrestling, boxing, and many other sports. At Pro level it becomes much less a sport than a business.
 
CM Punk has quit WWE, legitimately, no angle.

Walked out before RAW started. Been unhappy with the booking for a long time.

His contract expires in July and many expected him to not renew anyway.

Rumours are Daniel Bryan will take his place now, vs Triple H in a match at WM30.

Christ.

Can't even blame him really.
 
Bummer about Punk. Hopefully they'll be able to sort it out though and get him to re-sign.

Lots of rumours doing the rounds that Sting is about to sign with the WWE, some saying that he already has.

As interesting as Sting in wwe would be, Punk leaving has lost me a little.

Just before he did this;

I was on the verge of giving up. But it got me hook line and sinker. It was awesome. He was what was needed.

Without him now.

Well. They might have lost me.
 
I think it's a work, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's legit.

The direction of the product is woeful right now, truly terrible. They have sensational workers on the books, not just Bryan and Punk but the likes of Ziggler, Sandow etc. who are being wasted horribly - we have the very real prospect of Undertaker vs. Hogan or something daft and a world title fight between Batista and Orton which will bore everyone to tears.

The Cena vs. Orton rematch at the Rumble should never, ever have happened. It made zero sense and it got the reaction it deserved - two mediocre, uninspired workers putting in a by the numbers contest for the billionth time.

It's jobs for the boys there at the moment and not in terms of storyline either.

CM Punk 'quits the WWE' just weeks before Wrestlemania 30

CM Punk, one of the WWE's biggest stars, appears to have retired from the company, reportedly telling bosses he is 'going home', being removed from future wrestling events and thanking fans for their 'support' on Twitter.

The wrestler has had numerous run-ins with the promotion's chairman Vince McMahon in the past and it seems an undisclosed straw broke the camel's back on Monday night, with F4WOnline.com reporting that Punk – real name Phillip Jack Brooks – announced that he was going home ahead of an edition of weekly show RAW.

Punk missed this scheduled appearance and also his next at a Smackdown event in Toledo, Ohio the following day, with his name having now been removed from all future events (bar Elimination Chamber) on the WWE website.

This comes just weeks before the promotion's biggest annual event, Wrestlemania, which will take place in New Orleans on April 6.

Furthermore, Punk has been sending out cryptic tweets to his followers the past week, culminating in the ominous "Thanks for all the support. Keep being you guys, it's pretty cool," which came on Monday night and was not in reference to any in-ring action.

The wrestler's contract with the WWE is due to expire in July and many believe he will not renew it, with Punk previously stating "everything is up in the air" amid fears he is battling injures and generally burning out.

The reports should be taken with a whole vat of salt however, given wrestlers' propensity to announce their retirement only to return at a later date.

Either way, it has not been a good week for the WWE, with former ambassador and wrestling legend Mick Foley tweeting on Monday that he was 'disgusted' with the company after its most recent pay-per-view, Royal Rumble.

It's not a work because he didn't appear on RAW and there was literally no mention of him on the whole 3 hour show, which when you consider his final appearance - 49 minutes in the Rumble match before the Authority's Kane pulled him out - is bizarre as he was at the centre of a major angle.

Apparently they had to do a major rewrite of the RAW script a few hours before the show because he abruptly left.
