Friday Night Rasslin Megathread
 

Here we are again for another rousing evening of Smackdown, Rampage, and a super special best ever edition of BATTLE OF THE BELTS. LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Papa Haitch opening up Smackdown! season premiere.

So glad Heyman is back around.

The fact that Logan Paul is legit good at this outta nowhere is one of the weirder things in wrestling over the last year.

lmao Heyman shooting on Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro live on SD!

What the fuck lmao

LOL he's shooting on Andrew Tate now

Solo v Ricochet was good match.

Who were those Mexican men?

Phantasma, Santos Escobar, and I forgot the other guys name.

I was on the edge of my seat hoping Andrade was under one of those masks LOL

wait Phantasma was the name of the group, I dunno

Wow Ryback returning tomorrow night.

Legado Del Fantasmo.

That was a great debut.

That stuff on the white rabbit promo just said "feed your head" in Italian, Spanish, German and French.

Thanks I didn't quite catch it all the first time around.

Ryback.

Also The Fiends entrance song has turned back up on Spotify.

Scarlet makes my pee pee go DA-DOING-DOING-DOING

Logan Paul is perfect for wrestling.

Drew sneak attacks Kross, gets beat up anyways. Drew winning tomorrow.

I don’t think that matters. But I kind of thought they were throwing this match at Drew so he can get a win off losing at Clash anyway.

Man imagine if Big E is back, roofs about to blow off the building

Cruz Del Toro I believe

damn lol

Yeah thats right

lol wish Braun came out in New Day gear

Barrett and Cole with instant chemistry as a broadcast team.

I always thought Braun looked too drab in his last run. A splash of color would have gone a long way.

I was cynical about the changes, but I’d like to think that these teams have been picked for reasons. They can do dark test runs for these teams. If Cole and Barrett were absolutely awful together I’d be genuinely surprised that it got to that stage.

Kevin Patrick and Corey Graves will probably be “good” too. I’m more skeptical of Vic Joseph and Booker T. I can see that being more of Booker adding a splash to Vic basically running things himself, maybe as further practice for Booker, but I can see him being “in and out,” especially if Pat McAfee wants to come back to commentary and/or Cormier joins and they need to move Barrett back or whatever.

True, I dont think Kevin Patrick is long for the job though. I could see Barrett being moved to Raw when Pat comes back, since it seems Triple H is going away from 3 people booths.

I can actually see Pat doing more wrestling and maybe being the third wheel on Raw to do some angles here and there and just sub out during football season. I dunno, I guess we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it, but the changes sound like they’re supposed to stick.

LA Knight just told Maxxine she's a dummy, yeah.

I swear if they go back to TNA Eli Drake…

The guy is good, but he’s better when he’s not using inane catchphrases.

Noids a dummy, yeah.

LA Knight > Tiny Khan

YEAH!

Watching AEW Rampage!!!

Varsity Blondes still exist wow

Anna Jay > Tay Melo

Wonder what kind of promo Christian would cut on Negative 1? :shifty:

Gonna suck if dark order wins the trios titles cuz of the brodie stuff just because tk sent andrade home

10 sucks kinda.......

JR: He's a thick kid. THHHHHHICCCCCC.

We'll be live now, we'll be live later, we'll be live til....another hour!

don't feel like watching this match.......

miss Omega and the Young Bucks

still 10 mins left in this match somehow......

john silver is like a meth fueled mini muscle hamster

Pendulum bomb kinda cool

They’ve really exploited the shit out of Brodie’s death.

damn pac going back to back is kinda bogus

Def not arguing with you on that one.

Pac vs Trent is so sick

this match rules!

PAC

I like The Ocho.

That was everyones reminder that PAC is the best in the world.

gonna laugh if willow beats jade

Has AEW handled anyone better than they have Jade?

Leila Grey hot

lol Nyla Rose stole the title.

Isnt this you Matthew? In 4k?

AEW doesn't do rematches, except here we go with Danielson and Jericho for the 3rd time in a month.

I like Shida.

omg FTR in AEW

I’m a big Ass Boys guy.

thought they got abducted by aliens

ROH ring announcer looks funny... face red like Brother Love and wearing a neckbrace

Jim Cornette said he hates FTR's theme :smfh:

He’s got shit taste.

Prince Nana is cool.

Pretty sure the white rabbit is confirmed Wyatt after tonight. QR code on HHHs mic led to another weird cartoon pig video. Single frame buried in the video shows this:

That kinda made Wardlow look like shit... ran out for the save but was overpowered until Samoa Joe had to come and easily destroy everyone in 5 seconds

...Did anyone else know that Bound For Glory was tonight? lol

Dirty Dango made his debut in the main event.

When? Last I heard him talk about it I thought he appreciated the nod.

A while ago when they first got it, remember him saying he hated how this version sounded but appreciated the homage

I think it's mostly cause he really preferred the original song though

Listening to it now and it's sick..... so don't blame him now tbh

Oh, if we’re talking about the same instance I think he was just talking about how the original is better.

Really great smackdown.

Elektra Lopez got done dirty. Surprised by HHH doing that.

you're listening to coast to coast am with your host art bell

smackdown starts with a carwreck

If only

Will Scarlett be on the show tonight?

she was part of the start

ray quits

Sami Zayn is a very talented individual. It’s a shame he’s trapped by the money WWE forced him to take and he couldn’t take his dream job in AEW.

WOOOOO BYE REY REY (not really he'll be back in like 2 weeks to set up a fight aganist Dom at SS probably).

Which Ray? Mysterio, Bully, Stevie or Sting?

Rey Mysterio a gem. Maybe he’s shoot quit and will end up in AEW?

Karrion Kross is what his opponents do when they work with him.

this is a hot smackdown, this is the start of trips leadership.

I wonder if Triple H will hire back EC3? The ONLY way I’d want to see this is if Dixie Carter comes with him and they’re an act together. They try to sell Adam Pearce their tape library, and it’s clips of Dixie Carter and Serge singing duets and a young EC3 doing a school play.

Hope Braun destroys Omos and then tells him that he isnt finished with him yet!

Braun vs. Omos should be interrupted by Brock Lesnar who saves us from it collapsing into a black hole of suck.

Braun will probably win, but maybe they do a ring collapsing spot.
