All the plates look the same to me

Okay, well I am not sure what to tell you.

Rogue plates (what he is using) with green text are 25lbs.

Also, the second plate is thicker than the first and third plates.

That was a fun match. Those Revival guys do good heel work.

Yeah, I remarked on their heel work to my buddy. It was a fantastic example of how to properly do heel vs. baby face. It was a great example of old school wrestling and letting the match tell the story, not 20 minute promos or run in type silliness.

I forget which one of them did it...but when he blocked the hot tag by going under the ring...that was a great spot.
 
I'm not sold on Nakamura yet, especially knowing how big a hard on you weeaboos have for anything Japan. I need to see more from him. Every match he has can't be japan style match in the US

Not me, I'll never forget what they did to us on 9/11.
 
Nakamura is good but the problem for me is that with the "pretend to be MMA strong style" gimmick he has, instead of enjoying the wrestling I'm sitting there going "that's not a good armbar, he should grab the shin instead of the foot on that triangle" etc etc.

I mean pro wrestling submissions most the time aren't supposed to "look" real and we are just pretending, but when guys do "real" moves wrong it irks me. Mostly an OCD thing. Or the same thing when people watch a movie and say "well in the book it was . . ."

Well why the fudge not? I mean come on...what's the point of signing him otherwise?
 
IF the WWE could figure out a way for every wrestler to get a win in a match, I would not have to read 12 pages of bitching.

I'll take the half assed real subs any day. As a kid, I popped for the crossface. As an adult, it looks dumb. I'll take a halfway done right armbar while someone works an s-grip defense over the Rock doing a sharpshooter and not think twice about it. I will say I've never like when they go for moves like the triangle, the ref should be counting a pin every time.
