Shane McMahon exposes Braun Strowman’s poor academic past: Raw, Mar. 29, 2021 - YouTube

I was just on a thread about Braun Strowman and it prompted me to watch this segment from about 4 years back.

It has Shane McMahon reading out Braun's poor report card from school and then show's Braun in a dunce cap.

People hated this segment saying it was bad writing but I personally found it hilarious.

There was nothing overtly controversial or complicated.

Just some good old fashioned humour IMO.

Results:

- Jimmy Uso def Carmelo Hayes

- Michin def Chelsea Green via DQ, Chelsea retain the Woman US title

- MCMG and Los Garza def DIY and Pretty Deadly

- Naomi def Liv Morgan

- Andrade def The Miz

- Damian Priest and LA Knight def Tama Tonga and Jacob Fatu

Highlights:

1) Joe Tess interview KO about his match with Cody and was interrupted by Punk

2. Jacob interrupted Priest as he declared his entry into the rumble match

3. Santos revealed that he would be in the rumble match

4. Chelsea and Zelina declared their entry into the rumble match

Who do u think does that move best out of those 3?

Welcome to the WWE Friday night Smackdown discussion thread!

This is an automoderator sticky, but a mod will likely post the card before showtime and pin it.

Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our rules before posting.

Be nice, remember the human and have at it. This thread will stay up into Saturday for those watching on delay.

Ever since Bray's passing in 2023, I see the IWC clamor for him to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. I genuinely want to know, is this the real consensus or just the loudest, sentimental portion of the IWC? And if he had retired [for whatever reason] instead of passing away, would people still be referring to him as a sure fire HoF'er? No disrespect to Bray Wyatt and his contributions to the company, I just don't get the HoF talk. He was a main roster wrestler for 9 years, released, brought back 14 months later, and [unfortunately] passed away 11 months later.

We can make this the post if you want. Feel free to include your Zero Fucks Friday takes like we did in the glory days.

IRL 40 isn't that old.

I understand it maybe old for competitive sports.

But in wrestling I think it's a prime age where someone has built a fan base and perfected their skills.

I remember hearing wrestlers talk about getting goosebumps as far back as I can remember. Pretty much any wrestler who's discussed their career at length will bring up "goosebumps" at some point. Before podcasts there were shoot interviews, and before that, documentaries. ^((whatever happened to that Michael Moody guy?))

There are certain expressions you hear lots of wrestlers say, phrases I imagine got passed onto new generations via wrestling training. For example, mention of needing to "turn chicken shit into chicken salad" immediately comes to mind. Obviously not literal (I hope!) but it gets the point across.

I always thought "and I got goosebumps" was one of those figurative phrases. Then to my surprise, The Rock started slapping his forearm, showing off his literal goosebumps to the camera!

It got me thinking back to some of my most exciting experiences in recent memory, trying to recall any similar experiences. Despite some very exciting performances with bright lights, loud music, costumes, and many eyeballs pointed in my direction (and thankfully zero bumps), goosebumps weren't part of the experience. Maybe it's one of those things where different people get different physical responses to the same stimuli.

I do get obvious goosebumps whenever I feel a chill, however, and it's very noticeable. I've got those hairy caveman forearms, so a chill turns me into a porcupine.

Have you had any "goosebumps" moments?

Three Stages of Hell is cool. Really cool. But I always felt it was a bit contrived that the 3rd stage, the steel cage, was always assured to come down because they would never built it and tease it for no payoff. So, the 2/3 falls portion would never be decided in just 2 falls.

My idea is we remove the 2/3 falls concept from the match and replace it with a timer and an iron-man style point system.

30 minute timer, Iron Man rules, but every 10 minutes the stipulation changes. 10 minutes in, it’s a street fight. 20 minutes in, it’s a steel cage match.

Or you could do whatever combo you want, really. Maybe the first stage can only have pin-fall, the second stage can only have submissions, the third stage is fought under Last Man Standing rules

Or Wargames style. The first stage is a singles match, the second stage makes it a tag team match, the third stage makes it a 3v3 tag

Who is better in ring and on mic out of these 2?
