The Wrestling Thread Vol. 3

I didn't know that Steve Austin has shows on Country Music Television called Redneck Island and Broken Skull Challenge.

Anyone else think its time to forgive benoit? I feel like his body of work deserves a shout out

This is like what you were saying, Tazz.
Kurt Angle Says WWE Is 'Erasing A Lot Of My Career' If It Erases Chris Benoit's

Finally a wrestling title that looks like a wrestling title. Gorgeous new world title

I enjoy watching a good Bianca match and love her athletic feats, but she's never been a favorite for some reason (e.g., I'll just watch the RAW highlights for her match unless it's really important or against one of my favorites).

I think that crazy hair whip would make much more sense as a heel gimmick, though.

Love belair. Id love to see her turn heel and feud with alundra blayze since blayze is teasing a retirement match. I think belair can use that win honestly. Its crazy how wwe has 4 top women stars and only 1 male star wich is Roman.

Roddy Piper said Benoit had the "thousand mile stare" that Piper associated with steroids.

The bodies of wrestlers today look far less impressive than they once did. Drug testing is responsible for that.

I see wwe is teasing Rhea vs solo. That would be a amazing match and draw money. Im a big fan of both. Rhea is just amazing and solo has a very bright future

I personally can watch his matches and enjoy the skill, though it's hard not to remember the man. He was one of the best and he fought some of the best in their best matches.

Since he didn't survive and ask for forgiveness, I don't think there's any need to treat what he did as anything less than a horribly evil act.

I really wonder what might have happened if Eddie has survived and been able to counsel him because it sounds like he was a really good influence on him and Benoit took his death very, very hard.
But, that's just speculation. He had problems, some of which were medical, but he was also responsible for his actions.

Im just going off of what nancys sister said on Jerichos podcast years ago where she said she and her family never asked for Chris to be banned. Wwe did that on there own. Its still crazy all these years later still no answers. I have my own theory . Before Chris did what he did chavo has stated Chris seemed paranoid. With all the roids he had in the home what if he bought them on black market and owed money? The dr who would prescribe it probably said enough. People forget the black market exists. I just dont rule out any possibility

I've thought it might be OK to put out a documentary about him if all proceeds go to victims of domestic violence…

Yeah, I like that idea. There’s a lot that could be explored in a documentary (when Dark Side of the Ring covered the topic, it was their only two parter). That incident probably did more damage to WWE than any other (not that that was the worst part, of course).

Something along the lines of this documentary about Chris Adams.

Dom's wrestling skills are pretty good, imo, but he's not very convincing with the promos.

I just hope they dont ruin bron on the main roster or give him a bad look. I have no faith in creative after jobbing kross to hardy and the weird s and m dnd mask bullshit

I hope they dont get political with it. HHH doesnt seem like he would go that route.

For me i need something edgy current and realistic. I like the judgement day but man the members imo are wrong. I would of had bald karrion kross the leader, balor his right hand priest his left , scarlet can be the evil valet for them. Rhea needs to be on her own because she dosent need a stable. Shes already a bad ass single star. Im sorry i try but i dont like dom at all. He should be on nxt work there develop his skills
