I can't help but laugh at this idea of the "IWC". As though every fan who goes to live events and cheers John Cena or has never even heard of ROH never visits the internet. They aren't internet wrestling fans. No, those people are apparently barricaded in their basements making troll noises at their TVs when Mark Henry comes out. I like CM Punk. I like John Cena. I don't care for Alberto Del Rio. I don't care for Randy Orton. I don't really like Rey or Evan Bourne a great deal. I dislike as many people as I like in Ring of Honor. So what lazy generalization do I fall under? Or am I just some weird outcast?

Everyone - there should have been a tipping point at 12,000 members, where people started waking up and discovering that they had nWo t-shirts, and a limo with Michael Wallstreet was on the way to pick them up to run in on other countries.

Okay... I have realized that, as I no longer go to any live indy shows, I never followed indy wrestling much, and I despise TNA's product most of the time - I am a WWE fan. Punk is the best thing going today. Explain.

I'd like to see Punk lured into a defense on RAW like a character in a cartoon setting a trap with a box, a string, a twig and a steak.
Have him get picked up from the bus station by Claudio and Hero, and driven by a confusing route to a nondescript 'gym' for an indie show. Punk spends the whole show in a dressing room, and then walks through the building to the ring. However, when he gets there, it is just a tiny room draped with curtains. He enters the ring, the bell sounds, and then the entire facade lifts away, to reveal that Vince has just lured him into Madison Square, and it was all an elaborate set.

Not a band, but Rupert Holmes - always pissed him off that Escape (The Pina Colada Song) was far and away his biggest song.

If they DID let him defend on the indies, it'd be hilarious to see someone like Brodie Lee desperately shooting on him to steal the title.

He'll chase Punk clear cross Hazzard County to get that title shot.

I heard he has one of those fancy new nWo contracts, courtesy of Bischoff.

The thing is, I think it's just an online thing. I've never had this issue hanging out with him in person, but online he just comes across as......SUCH a douche. The internet has wrecked up a lot of people's behavior.

I know I mentioned it in the "favorite referee" thread, but I want to see Nunzio start having trouble controlling the wrestlers. Then he could just threaten to bring "his cousin" in to take care of business. Jamie Noble returns. The wrestling community trembles in fear. He should bring in his little brother instead.

Playing devil's advocate it kind of makes sense. Maybe it will be the biggest event in entertainment, but by saying sports entertainment, that implies the World Cup, the superbowl, the Olympics. As far as it being bigger than the Oscars or Grammys? At least it's got a chance. I get your point but I do think Mania is bigger than the Superbowl in a sense of people all around the World watch Wrestlemania. Sure, i imagine people around the world might tune in to see the Superbowl if they remember it's on at whatever time it's on, but WWE has a more global attraction than the Superbowl, at least in my opinion. No. Also, no. Finally... no. Yours faithfully, No.

Please don't mention del Rio winning as if it's a good thing. So it's a bad thing?

Also, there's the fact that Ace was a reasonably good worker when active, and was, at one point, considered an extremely promising backstage mind. I think he's turned into a bit of a Sammy Glick figure, and appears to be employed in the wrong area of the business, but blind hate actually makes him look BETTER in my eyes, and everyone else look worse.

I think I have the issue with the majority of the human race - unfortunately, I think that's become the annoying thing I do to other people.

Fortuitously, I just logged into Netflix - going to watch Deranged.

Thank you Stephen Dan.
Honestly, it's like we're in a parallel world where 1PW is a guarantee of something other than massive malpractice and bad management.
