    Havent seen it yet but seeing all the memes is kinda nuts. Is anyone else in that Block going undefeated? Given his status I dont guess I wouldve expected him to go to the final.

    :rip  Harley Race.

    I got an autograph from him at Wrestlemania 27 Fan Axxess.

    I felt kinda bad for him because of what happened with the line. Everyone was lined up for autographs, but they don’t announce the guest ahead of time. Kevin Nash comes out and sits at the table, and everyone cheers. Then his handler tells him he was at the wrong table, so Nash goes elsewhere, while Harley sits at our table...causing people to groan and half the line to leave to go to Nash’s line. I thought that was kinda disrespectful to Harley, so I made sure to stay in his line.

    He is still on the top of the group for B Block. And has a pretty good lead. He may still make it to the finals.

    It's not as dumb as it sounds. Losing to Yano never really hurts anyone and that defeat got Mox over with the Japanese crowd. I'm not a fan of long unbeaten records anyway, there's usually shenanigans to keep them going and more often than not they end disappointingly.

    It's been a quality G1 so far, Meltzer's been throwing out stars like confetti to every match not involving Yano, Fale and Lord Taichi.

    I was sayin on another board.. if WWE could legit do a draft, with the two networks, after having some kind of neutral flip to see who goes first, and then let the networks fight it out with cash bids as to who gets what in the draft positions! Fox you want Reigns? Cough it up! USA wants BBRRROCK LEEESSNAAR get out the wheel barrows! But if you truly.. truly want the number one draft pick, the man who was still never eliminated from the 2015 Royal Rumble.. Curtis Axel you better bring in the dump truck of cash!

    If that's even legal.

    I agree. This has been a pretty great G1. I know Yano is pretty much a comedy act. I’m curious if they actually let Mox get to the finals. Moxley vs Okada at Wrestle Kingdom could be quite amazing.

    I'm sure we'll get Okada v Mox for the IWGP belt before long, maybe in one of the big shows left this year. I can't see Mox winning the G1, and now it looks like if Okada wins he'll choose Sanada, there's been a rivalry simmering between those two since Sanada made his debut by costing Okada his title.

    If I had to guess the Wrestle Kingdom main events I'd go Okada v Sanada and Naito v White for the two main belts.

    that would be hot.

    I think you save the legends for stuff like this too instead of cramming them into one show. can you imagine dibiase coming out to side with a network or irs making a random appearance to stop a draft from going through due to stipulations only to get sister abigailed by the fiend? :lol 

    crazy stuff like that is what you save them for. spreading them out over a year for big pops at opportune times!

    I’m down for Okada vs Sanada. That will be a great match. I would agree I don’t see Mox winning the G1. Naito vs White should be good. I’m just a bit over Jay White. I think they gave the Heavyweight Belt a little too early. I tell you who I have grown to appreciate is Lance Archer. He’s a great Big Guy Heel. Probably never hold a major title but a great heel for people to have to get by.

    I was reading on Google yesterday the reason both Corbin and Evans has not appear on RAW and Smackdown for the past two weeks is that they are not popular with the fans.

    Yeah, after Extreme Rules neither Evans and Corbin never appeared on both shows.
    Maybe they'll appear when the Wild Card Rule is over.

    That Wild Card Rule is just a band aid solution on the part of Vince and it doesn't really help both shows for long term. It sucks TV Time for other deserving talents that needs exposure and push.

    I think there will be a plot where it'll prompt to end Wild Card rule and strictly enforce brand split.
    When is Survivor Series again? I think events leading to Survivor Series will start the end of Wild Card as it will forced wrestlers which brand they'll side with. I'm expecting wrestlers will violate maximum of 4 wild cards up to the point it'll go uncontrollable as Survivor Series comes near.

    I think the Mr.McMahon character will be involved again to end Wild Card Rule.

    I welcome the idea that USA Network and Fox Network be involved if there's gonna be a draft. Kayfabe or Real.
    But one thing is fixed. Roman Reigns will stay at SDL as Fox as i remembered strictly requested Vince to put him on the show.

    Given that it's the end of October, I think they missed an opportunity to borrow an electric chair from the local police station and bring back Halloween Havoc.
