SaveByRichter35 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 5 hours ago, Phil said: Styles is one of the early members of Bullet Club, which is essentially the Japanese version of the nWo. It was founded by Prince Devitt (Finn Balor), Ryusuke Taguchi, Karl Anderson, Bad Luck Fale, and Tama Tonga. Styles lead the group after Devitt left NJPW in 2014. Eventually, Omega took over in 2016 when Styles, Anderson, and Gallows left for WWE. They "too sweet" as a kind of homage to nWo, but it's somewhat tongue in cheek. There's a whole history to BC that's pretty interesting to read about if you're interested: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullet_Club Thanks I'll check it out. I've been going down YouTube rabbit holes trying to catch up on things that happened between now and 2010-14ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope his friends are actively working with him through this time. That was a cry for help, that's what that was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 So I just read that the Acknowledgment Ceremony for tonight has been cancelled and replaced with a trial of Sammy. Rikishi, and Afa and Sika all couldn’t make it to Philly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) That was a solid show last night, great Sami Zayn segment. I guess it would have been a bit better if more past Legends could make it, but for a go-home show, it was good. The crowd was great and I loved the ECW chants. With Wrestlemania being in Philadelphia next year, you can guarantee Heyman is going into the Hall of Fame. It'll be a big year to celebrate ECW.

With Wrestlemania being in Philadelphia next year, you can guarantee Heyman is going into the Hall of Fame. It'll be a big year to celebrate ECW. I LOVED the APA poker game segment. The lone door in the middle of nowhere is so funny. I laughed my ass off at that. Loved Taker being back and surprisingly loved that he came out to American Badass after his bell toll. They got me with the ref giving the X arm signal. I thought that was real for a few moments and then I knew exactly where they were going with it. I don't usually get to watch these shows live as I usually work nights. I end up streaming replays later that night for Smackdown or the next day for Raw(USA doesn't offer it until the next day). SO MANY COMMERCIAL BREAKS. I got fed up in the third hour of the show. It felt like 35-40 minutes of commercials just in that last hour. I turned it off after they went to yet another break after Austin Theory's entrance. I put on something for both my wife and I to watch until she went to bed. Figured I would go back and catch what I missed when I get home from work tonight. Spoiler Unfortunately today I saw a post on Facebook showing that Brock came back back to interfere with the Lashley Theory match. Pissed I missed that.

Sharpshooter Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Yeah, it's why I record the show so I can fast forward through the commercials and whatever filler crap I don't want to watch. Sometimes it still feels like it's too long, though. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USA is nice because you can fast forward the stream for Raw. Fox Sports app I don't think you can. Both apps have their own built in commercial spots. Edit - these are the streams after the fact, not while its a live broadcast. Edited January 26, 2023 by SaveByRichter35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Who's watching the Rumble tonight? Let's use this as a GDT for the night. I'm stuck at work so I am going to try to borrow a friend's Peacock log in. Won't have sound though unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 No luck procuring a log in. If anyone wants to be so kind as to lend me theirs for the night please pm me lol. I'd recommend making a new password just for the night because I don't wanna be accused of leaching off of anything full time lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great story telling and the crowd chanting fu Roman was awesome,some nuclear heat . I echo all of this. I think we all knew Cody was going to win, but making him come in last and win without really any challenge didn't do him any favors. He should have entered firs or second, or middle of the pack at the very least. The Royal Rumble match itself wasn't that great anyway. I'm loving Gunther even more now. Honestly I was rooting for him to go to Wrestlemania. 70 minutes! Not only does it pump him up, it also makes the Intercontinental Championship look better, so kudos to Triple H on that. The ending saved this show from being a completed thumbs down from me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ending def saved it I’m excited to see how and what direction they go with bloodline since jey also turned his back on them , will he fall back in line or will he side with Sami ? how Does Cody get involved in this and will rock make an appearance.

Sharpshooter Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 We could see a little group of Jey, Sami and Owen's going against the rest of them. That's probably what's going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
