Wrestlemania 31 Thread - Page 4 - Wrestling -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

He doesn't want people thinking his employees are wrestlers. He doesn't allow them to be called such. The other one was just straight up calling wrestling fake, which, face it, Bryan did a couple hours ago.

So HBK basically just gave him a heel intro (only in it for the money)

First commercial on Network after HoF is for Arnold's new movie. I see why he was inducted now. Good business transaction there.

All in all HOF was pretty good. Thought Nash, Bushwhackers, Rikishi and Conor The Crusher were good and Alundra was really good.

Macho Man induction put me off. I enjoyed parts but just felt weird as it was pretty much just a poem with half of it rhyming and the other half not.

I also heard or read somewhere that HHH's entrance will be Terminator based. But also dont forget that HHH was just inducted into the Intermational Sports HoF by Arnold and NXT did some shows at the Arnold Classic a couple weeks ago

For once his lies put somebody else over rather than himself.

I thought Arnold's speech was great btw until somebody mentioned he was totally full of **** with the Otto Wanz reference.

Guess HHH is going in next year so the Clique can all hug on stage again. Then maybe X-Pac the year after that.

I like how one bushwhacker looks great and the other one looks like he could drop dead at any minute

Working nights this week so I basically have to get up "early" to watch. Looking like a 50/50 proposition at best.

Rikishi didn't mention Too Cool apparently which is pretty awful form since that's the only reason he's in there. Scotty is MAD on twitter.

This is the Wrestlemania 31 card.

What we're going to see tonight is the Wrestlemania 'Play' card.

I'd save my getting up early for Raw the next night.

I really enjoyed Madusa's speech, she was awesome.

Man, that Savage video got to me, the rest of his induction was hit and miss though.

I haven't watched his but that's indeed awful if he didn't.

A shoutout from Rikishi to those guys would have been nice I suppose, but it's pretty damn weird to rage on Twitter about not being given one.

The fans at the HOF certainly sounded ready to boo the hell out of Reigns. Rikishi had them on a roll with the various family members that he would cue them to cheer, and they cheered for all of them until he said Reigns's name and caused heavy booing.

I gather from the ensuing "Umaga" chant that the HOF crowd might have more overlap with the post-WM Raw crowd than the WM crowd, but still.

Yeah I don't know if I'd rage but it is pretty awful given that he got his biggest push from teaming with them.

edit: I guess I need to watch it now to hear those Umaga chants.

I can't get over Daniel Bryan's speech. I think it's a top 3 speech I've ever heard, up there with Jimmy V's.

Re: LKJ's observation. This is correct--I went to the HOF and post-Mania Raw 2 years ago. The smark meter was at 11 on the former and the GOAT crowd was at the latter. Huge overlap at both shows.
