    I'm sure he'll probably get into the HOF and have his Mania moment too in 2017.

    My HOF prediction: Vader, Slick, and Goldberg. Vader and Slick are staples in HOF predictions every year. Goldberg is new.

    How do you think they'll do the NWO? Just the original 3: Hogan, Hall, and Nash? Or They'll pick and choose so that Xpac can be included also?

    It's so stupid when they put someone in who's already in.

    I'm gonna flat-out say it right now: SmackDown's Women's division is far superior to RAW's because RAW's is run by nothing but complete egomaniacal bitches (Charlotte, Brooke, Jax).

    Call me when Asuka gets called up and puts them all in their places.

    No he didn't, and neither did Heyman, but I guess having both Goldberg and Heyman show up on that Monday would be overkill. Heyman will probably be there next week.

    Another LU fan right here! I've been watching for the last two seasons and honestly... You're not going to see a better wrestling show on TV.

    • The fact that they can keep stories interesting AND ongoing AND reach a conclusion is so satisfying. It's something that wrestling promotions used to do with some consistency, but seems to be lost on most these days.
    • Matt Striker and Vampiro are the best announce team out there. I love how they both bring their own expertise to the table. I honestly had no idea that Vampiro was still around after WCW or that he had such a strong presence in the Lucha scene. Matt is no slouch with his wrestling knowledge either. It's refreshing to hear announcers that not only know what they're talking about, but also build excitement for what's going on in the ring.
    • The show brings the drama. The cinematics that tie the wrestling into the larger story is so different from anything I've ever seen on a wrestling show before. It really brings you into their world.
    • Finally, the wrestlers. Holy shit, those wrestlers! I don't think I can ever remember seeing a more talented roster. The all just defy words. The only thing I can say is just watch them. I mean, really WATCH what they're doing. It's absolutely amazing.
    I had the chance to catch up on the last few episodes yesterday. Grave Consequences and the Career vs. Career matches were stunning. I know that Rey and Chavo were the main event, but I gotta give the show to Puma and Muertes. It was technical, brutal, and everything that I expect from LU at this point. Just so damn good.

    Last week's Aztec Warfare match was so far beyond what I was expecting! Especially that ending! It makes what happened several weeks back with Johnny Mundo a much easier pill to swallow. I felt that there were some bigger plans for Sexy Star when that all went down, but I didn't expect this! Beyond stoked to see where this goes! I challenge you to find another wrestling promotion that dedicates an hour to one match and delivers every single second!

    So yeah, I'm a LU fanboy. So much so that I have completely quit watching Raw, spend no more than an hour on Smackdown, and may give Impact about 30-45 minutes of my time each week. They just can't compare and watching them feels like I'm watching a watered down version of what the sport should be.

    Are we fans supposed to forget that Undertaker threatened the whole SD team about the repercussions of losing.

    Best-case scenario (At least in my mind): Ambrose beats Styles at TLC and wins back the title, then a feud is eventually set up which leads to Undertaker/Styles at WM33.

    Taker's only got a couple of WMs left in him. I expect this year will finally see Cena/Taker and next year is his swan song, finally winning over on Lesnar.
