RE: WWE Discussion
Apparently both Roman and Lesnar suck. Each of them can land their finishers OVER and OVER and OVER and the other simply kicks out.

What is the point of a "finisher" when one can land it six times in a match (not to mention numerous other high impact moves) and the opponent just kicks out?

At least they are so called "legitimate" finishing moves. Could have been worse such as the Hogan leg drop or the Rock elbow. Two of the weakest "finishing" moves i have ever seen.

The one i really love is the figure four where if they break the hold they end up selling the wrong leg as if it was the bent leg which takes all the pressure. If applied wrong (bent leg across the joint of knee)you could easily blow out someone's knee. Or bent leg above the joint you can hyper-extend the knee. Any way you apply it the straight leg joint is what gets the pressure. But they sell the bent legs as taking the damage.

Or even worse are able to reverse the pressure by simply turning over. Which does nothing in way of changing pressure on legs.

Once they admitted it is a staged performance then you can no longer overlook such items.

Whatever.

You have some 6'9 305 pound behemoth drop his tree trunk sized leg across your throat and see how that feels. You'd be (trying) to scream for the jaws of life to peel him off.

Compared to the Strowman power slam it is laughable. At least the power slam looks legitimate.

I saw Hogan in Vegas about 20 years ago. We stood eye-to-eye. I'm 6-4.

You do realize that they "add" the announced height by about 4-6 inches in height to all the performers, right?

Anyway, I enjoyed Friday's PPV for the most part.

I forgot to record RAW last night like an idiot, though.

I'm new to the WWE Network - is last night's RAW available on there in full?

You can download it on pirate bay using bit torrent.

It will be on the network in 2-3 weeks time.

Nakamura continues to impress with his heel turn. Man he is really good at this, he makes other peoples heel turns look laughably weak and bland. The "King of low blows", the "cheap shot artist". Pretty good stuff.

Samoa Joe coming out and busting a promo on AJ was also sweet.

It's time to put the belt on Shinsuke and let AJ chase it for a while. This is a feud that can go all summer if they do it right.
