  1. Too many red flags for the cats sounds like it's good enough for the riders... who "haven't" already worked him out. Wonder how long before the trade center gets fired up with the news Ticats trade Neg list QB to riders for JSJ
  2. I get that but obviously there was some influence from MMA even if UFC was in it's infancy on at least 1 character in the WWE/F at the time and maybe if it was done better it would have had more influence in the approaching attitude era and eventually convinced vince by the 2000's it was worth the purchase. but that's all hindsight. Funny youtube vid I found with Kama's debut against a jobber... Matt Hardy
  3. Maybe if Kama was a little better he could have convinced vince to buy the UFC as Shane supposedly wanted him to. The Kama character would have been roughly around the time of the first couple UFCs in their early tourney days
  4. I'm a little surprised it was Leggett and not Randle as he had 2 very huge impacting plays in 2 of our wins this month, this past games INT in OT2 and that TD on the fumble recovery in Ottawa. But good on these guys they all deserve it
  5. I was just thinking the same thing. I don't think there's a place for pimps and ho's anymore in the PG WWE, which kind of sucks, the bra and panties matches were always a good time filler
  6. I should have said west all-stars, might be a little tougher for some of they guys to crack CFL all star. Adams is currently 5th in receiving in the league, so if it were just West I think he gets a nod. Loffler is already at 40 tackles, westerman is tied for 2nd in the league with 6 sacks (1 behind current leader Butler) and thomas for a rotational player, has 3 sacks, 1 int and 11 tackles which isn't mind blowing but for 9 games and again rotational that's pretty good numbers
  7. I haven't watched our Oline that closely this year but seems like they are letting in more pressure then they did towards the end of last year, at least it seems that way to me. excluding the Oline, I would name the following to all stars; Nichols, Harris, Adams, Randle, Heath, Loffler, Leggett, Westerman. Thomas and of course Medlock
  8. lol well unless terry gordy owns the rights, i think they could definitely revisit the concept and make it a little more modern. But if I was to put that hood on someone I would have prefered it on someone the size of Braun Strowman, I don't think someone of Reigns size really has that physically imposing size when the other wrestlers aren't that much smaller over all. I think the only wrestler that matches/slightly exceeds Braun's size is the Big Slow
  9. since the WWE is very much aimed at the young fans as much as their older fans, I don't see the harm making a character that can appease both, be a bit cartoonish yet cool enough to tolerate. A character I would roll with is that of an executioner, the possibilities with a character like that could have a high ceiling, especially if you saddle them up with a loud mouth who thinks of themselves as both Judge and jury and when they deem someone "guilty" the executioner would be the punishment.
  10. yeah over all the trailer looked decent enough to check out. The storyline seems like a retread of so many other movies tho. Butt hurt dad out for justice who happens to be some ex-black ops covert. I'm more interested in seeing how Chan does in a serious role as so many of his movies are always slap-stick or accompanied by some loud mouth side kick
  11. including his time with edmonton i think hes either 5-0 or 6-0 now and 1 preseason tie
  12. lol what a dumb character. I was watching some old promo clips of Isaac Yankem from 1995, I remember the kiss my foot match from King of The Ring 1995 between Jerry Lawler and Bret Hart and the prom night dumpster baby that came from that match was Isaac Yankem's introduction as Lawler had to visit him after he lost and it lead to a Hart vs Yankem feud
  13. I think it's pretty obvious we have the Riders kryptonite in our back pocket by the name of... *ugh* Matty Ice. Never lost to the riders, undefeated at NMS and playing the best ball of his career. I'm starting to believe when Walters and Osh felt the need to find a capable back up to Drew Willy in 2015, a criteria in their targets was "Can they beat the riders?" to which Nichols said hell yes I can... and I will.
  14. isn't that your sister? I'll be the first to admit, I am the good looking one out of my family (by a country mile ) but I would never say such things on an internet forum where I know at least one of them lurks.... lol
  15. it's not about the costume so much as it's how the wrestler brings it to life. for example, The first rendition of Kane where his mask was full face and he was mute was worlds better than no/half masked Kane who talked;
  16. you guys just don't know "classic" characters when you see them
  17. I wasn't aware that Ziggler has been back, i must have skipped over it last week on my pvr, but I know I read somewhere nearly 3 weeks ago they were possibly repackaging him again (I think he used to be a preppy character). I didn't mind the "show off" gimmick but I think he needed to put more into it to sell it. I think some kind of hybrid style between Mr. Perfect and Bobby Roode's current Glorious angle would have worked better. There's no formula for the fans, but there's no ignoring them either. The current Reigns character is not getting the desired reaction, and IMO it might be too far gone to salvage it. At least at this time. What the WWE is missing atm is a "monster" character like the good ol days of Papa Shango, The Undertaker, Kane..etc It might be a little too late to repackage Reigns into some sort of possessed version of the Undertaker since he put him down, but throw a mask on him let him build up a character then reveal it's him somewhere down the road. If it was done right the shock and awe of reigns being ______ all along might be enough to sell him back to the fans either as a heel or a face depending how they react to his monster character
  18. I missed the majority of raw last night but just watched that segment with Cena/Reigns. Even if that was scripted it was well done IMO. Definitely felt some legit distaste for one another in it so they really sold it if it was a work. I doubt hat will happen again or at least often, but sometimes it works to bring some realism to a feud to give it some traction. Last week it seemed kinda meh, especially with the Miz interrupting but at least now there's some heat between the 2 and a sort of angle of FT'er vs PT'er lol
  19. At some point if it's just not working with roman, I would seriously have him disappear from TV for a few months then repackage him. Most times that return gets you the pop you need to start rolling better. If i'm not mistaken they are doing that with Ziggler atm
  20. oh yeah this was one of the trailers at the hitman's bodyguard. Jackie Chan in "Taken: again"...errr I mean the Foreigner
  21. April 20th is sooo far away but at least there's a set date
  22. I don't think it will be anytime soon, or with McGregor, but it's hard to see them never doing some sort of cross sport novelty bout again somewhere down the road. I'm sure every mma fighter, boxer, promoter..etc took notice at the $$ and draw this event was and would totally try to capitalize again someday when there are as big of names as we had yesterday. I personally would love to see them do an old school UFC like when it first started that saw a variety of fighting styles showcased in a stepladder tourney. it was basically RL Street Fighter
  23. a lot of the back of the head stuff was Mcgregor instinctively throwing hammer fists which I believe is perfectly legal in MMA. You could also see a few times as soon as he shook Mayweather a bit he went to pounce and the ref stopped it immediately because you cant just jump on the guy and ground and pound which looked like it was what he would have done in other circumstances. The obvious difference between the 2 sports showed on many occasions tonight, but the thing i was more annoyed with was Mayweather turning his back to Mcgregor constantly. a few of those back of the head shots were because of Mayweather
  24. well wasn't the most exciting of PPvs (glad my buddies ex footed the bill :D) the McGregor/Mayweather fight was pretty predictable, if anything it was exactly how they wanted it. McGregor walks aways with nothing to be ashamed of, put on a good fight for someone with a handicapped pedigree in that specific sport, and Mayweather keeps his legacy in tacked, and they both walk away ridiculously rich. IMO the Jack/Cleverly fight was the match of the night, I'm not into boxing but that Badou Jack looks like a real good fighter
  25. hmm could have sworn the bombers are on a longer win streak then you guys so we must be riding at epic heights ourselves if you wanna take who has momentum atm
