March 6, 20196 yr comment_5881111 So Becky comes out the day after taking a beating from Ronda, including being locked in multiple arm bars, barely any worse for wear than normal. They even had Ronda put her in a legit looking arm bar and not that weird one she's been using, and she wasn't even sporting an ace bandage for the trouble.

March 6, 20196 yr comment_5881133 I can't stand the use of wrestling moves in WWE post-match brawls and heel beatdowns. It takes me out of the moment and reminds me that I'm watching a fake pro wrestling fight. An armbar is a legitimate submission, but it's not something you'd do if you were trying to kick someone's ass in a bar fight. If Becky's arm wasn't going to be broken, they should've just had Ronda mount and pummel her.
March 6, 20196 yr comment_5881134 The Joe senton on Rey was nasty. I hope Rey and Andrade get at least 10 minutes. 15-18 would be ideal.

Normally I would agree but Ronda seems like the type of person who would try to do submission moves in a bar fight.
March 6, 20196 yr comment_5881142 You could argue it was done with a touch of humiliation in mind as well. They’ve obviously been sniping about armbars on twitter so if nothing else you can look at it as a “this is how you REALLY apply an armbar” thing. And she did sort of pummel her a bit as well (a few of her body shots had some extra mustard and looked much better than usual). I’d also tend to agree with the general point, but this wasn’t a suplex or a snapmare or some dumb shit. So I’m alright with it.
March 6, 20196 yr comment_5881144 If I was a trained MMA fighter I'd totally go for an arm bar in a bar fight.
March 7, 20196 yr comment_5881150 Shit I'd say that it would be better to just snap on a sleeper hold or armbar than going for knockout punches work smart guys

Kevin Nash doing a walk-in to Lazy Bomb a Luchadore, The Giant Chokeslamming an nWo B-Team member in a match he wasn't in, Austin stunning everyone in sight or what have you. I thought the coolest part of the debut of The Nexus was when Justin Gabriel hit the 450 on Cena.
March 7, 20196 yr comment_5881154 I liked the beat down. Heel Rousey is awesome. Feels like this feud has completely gone off the rails though. They just can’t help getting in their own way and have diluted the fuck out of the build since the rumble. Went from a surefire Women's Main Event to just another match. Such a shame.

First I shriek like a little girl: "Please don't hit me, I'm a hemophiliac" then I put my hands over my face, start sobbing uncontrollably and run away as fast as I can (still screaming) until I can find a tree to hide behind.
March 7, 20196 yr comment_5881161 I thought Ronda's beatdown was awesome but yeah as mentioned Becky was barely affected the very next night, still able to take out Charlotte on one leg.
March 7, 20196 yr comment_5881163 Becky has been hobbling around on crutches for weeks. I think a minor touch of WWE ACE no-selling is fine in this instance. Do you want her to become fully mummified?

Yeah I mean I try to act tough in my mind but I'm super chill so I would probably go "it's okay bro"
March 7, 20196 yr comment_5881167 Again, it would have been fine if the armbar had caused some lasting damage, like when Brock Lesnar was breaking people's arms with the kimura. The fact that it was treated like a regular wrestling hold is what killed it for me. Anyway, I know what the title for next week's thread should be.

Oh, most of my life I've walked away from any kind of fight, with only a few exceptions when it was defending myself. But I spent seven years as a DJ at a strip club where all male employees were also bouncers. I would have loved to have been able to armbar a motherfucker. I did once front face lock a guy and flat face bumped him to the floor. Not as cool as a spinning armbar, though. Normally it was just a turnbuckle shot. The turnbuckle being the doorframe.

March 7, 20196 yr comment_5881176 Oh, and Joe/ Rey/ Truth/ Andrade was fucking dope. I loved that match, and my geek hope is Joe vs Cena at Mania.
