The Wrestling Discussion Thread

Ali/Ethan was put together last minute but they had a segment together at least & really sold the purpose of the match, Ali reminded us of how he was released just when he was expected to win the NA title and how he has come back for the shot he earned & evoked the desperation to end his curse, we saw that in the match, while Ethan continues to generate traditional heat consistently and use his ring generalship in sneaky ways to stand his ground. This is why I follow anything Shawn’s involved with, it’s dev inherently but we get this too when he really flexes his muscles, excellent match, beautifully produced, Shawn/Ali have a great relationship to and Shawn played a big part in reinventing Ali.
 
Did you guys catch AJ's post-match promo on RAW? Where he basically said that this match doesn't need a story because it's life or whatever. Felt like something straight out of the H playbook. And then he even had the commentators constantly saying that the fans wanted this match and we gave it to them...as if we should be grateful to Almighty H for giving us one match that any booker with even a couple of brain-cells would have booked months ago, and with an actual build.
Need an AJ Punk feud. The two have never feuded on tv.
 
Man just watched Ali vs Ethan Page, this match makes me proud to be Pakistani; Ali wrestled like he has a death wish, hope he’s ok. Outstanding booking & Ethan has been consistently so good. Such a creative match, MOTY candidate for sure, go out of your way to watch this guys @RedwoodOriginal
He almost overshot that dive out of the ring and flew into the crowd lmao. Is he Pakistani origin? Thought he was Saudi. Maybe I’m confusing him with that other wrestler who is similar to him.
