It's actually rated TV-PG here at least, but sue me, I couldn't think of anything better.

I'm glad you open these. I don't want the responsibility of naming them.

As a little peak into my mind though, I've been listing the 'Top Posters' based on the top three post makers in the TV thread. That's not an incitement to spam, but something to think about

What Rumble should I watch tonight? Open to all suggestions except for 1992 and last years.

I actually forget who wins that. I'll probably remember halfway through. But cheers.

2004 wasn't too bad a year for wrestling, I really liked Evolution, it was just littered with Heidenriechs and Snitskys.

I already have one for 14, but I was thinking last night as the last one was nearing 100 pages... this could get really hard in the late teens, 20's, etc.

Wonder if Batista would look just as roided up as he was before or noticeably skinnier.

Snitsky STILL has my award for best Royal Rumble elimination. Paul London sold it amazingly and JR's call was perfect.

That was taken a little bit ago. He's been doing mma stuff last I heard.

He doesn't seem to look that jacked here, or maybe it's just me.

It'll be an interesting return.

no not at all, he lost a ton of weight. Maybe he built himself back up. Where he's doing movies, it wouldn't surprise me if he built himself back up like the rock.

Same. I think he'd be pretty big in today's WWE.

When Batista was on that Spike TV roundtable with King Mo he did look noticeably smaller, but this pic is from the summer

I saw Batista last summer at the Guardians of the Galaxy Comic-Con panel and he didn't look noticeably smaller. Or maybe I have a bad memory of how he looked at the end of his WWE run (a very distinct possibility.)

I don't know if he would be or not, but I would like to see him back either way.

So I re-watched the Reigns-Punk match. Two things are pretty clear, Reigns has a very, very bright future but also that he's still pretty green. Watching that match closely you could see Punk carrying him and leading him for most of that match. At this point, putting him in a singles match with someone other than 4-5 guys could yield pretty bad results. If they're committed to the Reigns as the breakout singles star of The Shield I think they should put off there breakup for a while and maybe do that babyface run that some are clamoring for.

Having said that, I don't think Cena or Batista or Rock were quite ready in terms of ring work for a top singles run when they got it. But all of those turned out pretty well.
