If that was an autocorrect, that'd be one of the best ever!

Just watched the match. Twas really cool, but gotta say, The Go To Sleep isn't a very good move. The youtube vid was shitty, but it still looked like he didn't come close to connecting that move.

KevShmev · « **Reply #282 on:** July 18, 2011, 02:55:14 PM »

I think it's a good finisher. In real terms, if you put someone in a fireman's carry and then flip them over and drive your knee into their chest, they might not "go to sleep"

, but it would probably be enough to get a 3-count. It is certainly better than Cena's attitude adjustment, which is basically just a body slam from a fireman's carry position. Both guys have good submissions finishers, though.

Yeah CM Punk version is toned down to match the wwe safety standards but:

Now that can make you Go To Sleep.

Somehow I knew that clip would feature KENTA, and that it'd be posted by TheSuicidalDragon.

You know, I wanna thank WWE. I haven't marked out like this in 8 years.

WTF does Marked out mean?

downloaded the show from last night... Holy shit, only crowd I've heard in the same league as the one from last night's main event was for Rock vs Hogan from Wrestlemania 18. Also, the spot in the Smackdown MitB where Sin Cara got powerbombed through a ladder looked crazy.

Basically, to go crazy happy at whatever just happened. Derived from the term 'mark', meaning someone who fully buys into the story (Oftentimes to the plot of believing it's all real). "Mark out" is a term for something that hardcore smart marks (Or 'smarks', guys who know about the backstage business) go crazy happy over.

For example, I follow the business pretty closely, so I don't really go wild for something like John Cena's Attitude Adjustment like most kids in the audience will. However, I got that same level of happiness when Daniel Bryan, my favorite active wrestler in the world today, won his Money in the Bank match, and is now all but guaranteed to hold a major world championship within the next year. Thus, I marked out for that moment.

Last night's Money in the Bank was the first bit of wrestling I've watched in years. Then followed it up with tonight's Raw, but I found myself losing interest rather quickly. The drama at the end was snooze-worthy.

LeeHarveyKennedy · « **Reply #294 on:** July 19, 2011, 11:50:49 PM »

And then *SMACKDOWN SPOILER* Daniel Bryan announced that he's officially waiting to Wrestlemania to cash in his briefcase. I never thought I'd say this again, but WWE is making several exciting decisions lately.

toro · « **Reply #295 on:** July 21, 2011, 01:49:10 AM »

Oh BTW the DickButt Nickname came from an Imageboard when we got the new that he was signing a contract with the WWE someone said somenthing like: "I hope they don't name him somenthing stupid like Dirk DickButt". and that nickname just stuck.

RobD · « **Reply #296 on:** July 21, 2011, 02:50:34 PM »

So it seems that CM Punk is still working...

I'm so glad the WWE actually seem to be doing something right for once. Last Monday's RAW actually had matches and events that felt like they mattered for the first time in years.

Fair enough. My best friend and I call him "Lloyd Boner" from an interview he did after he got released following the NXT riot. They asked him if he was planning on going to TNA, and his response was "Yeah, I just bet the fans would love to see Desmonde Wolfe vs. Lloyd Boner."

toro · « **Reply #299 on:** July 21, 2011, 03:28:01 PM »

"Whats Lloyd Boner doing on the Impact Zone?"

Just watching some videos on youtube of raw in 98 and 99. It seems like it was all so much better back then

It was. But this is pretty cool, from what I can tell.

They are definitely on to something here. Let's hope they don't screw it up.

And with that, Mysterio becomes the first WCW guy that came over after WWE bought WCW to win the WWE Title.

I think they're gonna keep doing what happened tonight (and in MitB) until SummerSlam.

Del Rio HAS to cash it in before the Royal Rumble, because Danielson already said that he's gonna use it on WM so Del Rio has to use it before the Rumble or else that whole match becomes irrelevant.

KevShmev · « **Reply #313 on:** July 25, 2011, 08:19:12 PM »

Del Rio is awful. Hopefully, he becomes the first person to be unsuccessful in cashing it in. It has to happen at some point (someone failing to win when cashing it in), and Del Rio is just lame enough to be that guy.
