Lmao!!!

it was a weak ass card...



Just like when they came to STL for the first time this year... it was a wack ass card and they were charging $1,000 for the open seats up close

I remember Dana talking about how it "won't be a fad sport" when damn near every sport has had times of popularity and downtrend.

Boxing and Wrestling withstood the storm and now things are looking up for both businesses.

They took some big hits. UFC's success was too closely tied to the fortunes of their superstars..jon bones and all his extracurricular issues; silva/fedor falling apart; gsp retiring etc

Damn Vince gonna have to send Lashley to UFC to restore the honor and reputation of pro wrestlers

Not gonna lie Punk has made pro wrestling look awful as athletes

No way trips or Vince ever make someone who doesn't look the part the face of the E again

They had the Rebel beat Del Rio, be competitive with Brock, and had him beat Shelton a few times in ECW. They would fukk this guy up in like 40 seconds in a shoot...lol.

Probably Sonya Deville too..

Bellator will 100% sign Punk and give him a can with an 0-1 amateur record, and it will still probably be close

I think Chris Brown can beat him... I still remember him challenging Chris Brown after the Rihanna beat down

 

[TheWhackMamba]

No Superstars aside from McGregor, and Dana White running his mouth have killed the organization.

Shroom with the truth

So now you want reality in wrestling? If that's the case Brock should never lose the Universal Title. Ronda should handily beat Nia and be women's champion for as long as she's under contract.

I don't mind Punk if he wants to fight again, but Bellator or a Smaller Fed. UFC is a trash fire anyhow because fighters are always getting injured, along with constantly changing bookings.

It used to be the very best fighting, but now the UFC is signing unknowns in hopes of finding a gem.

Plus Dana as I said earlier, has to stick his nose into everything, and make it all about him. He wants to be Vince McMahon, but Vince, aside from his crazy ass, always is a guy who can easily throw away his grudge in a instant.

If CM Punk WANTED to come back, Vince would easily open the door for him because it means Money. Where with Dana, he is ready to burn bridges unless you are in his Fav 5 of the Now.

 

[The Don]

It was a decent PPV but on the other hand I didn't buy it . Because of it I know who a few more people are now.

 

[THE 101]

No one fell for the Rebel's scam a 2nd time...the circus of his first fight led to eyes but he was exposed by a guy with a girl's name, so this was gonna happen and well deserved.

 

[The Great One]

@The Great One

Look in my eyessssss what do you see?

The lowest buyrate in UFC his to ryyyyyyyyyyy

Mickey Gall...lol

Now I want reality? CM Punk was exposed long ago as a crybaby. What I said was just a fact...
