WWE superstar Elias chirps the city of Toronto and the Maple Leafs

[leaffaninvancouver]

John Cena is literally fantastic in movies and was absolutely hilarious in Blockers and that Amy Shumer movie a whiles back. Bautista is literally awesome in Guardians of the Galaxy and he was really good in the independent film The Man with the Iron Fists with GZA from WUTANG.

Meh, I find Cena a terrible actor apart from small doses, I've yet to see Blockers but I could see over protective dad working well for him. His action movies as the lead were unwatchable though. Bautista is awesome as Drax but will that continue in other roles I don't know. It's not really a stretch to say that actors in scripted shows are generally better at acting than most wrestlers.

Who would win a Hell in a Cell match: Auston Matthews or Crash Holly?

Not even fair, Crash is over 400 pounds of solid muscle.

To each his own I guess

Wow... I think basketball is awful... therefore I will shame you for being entertained by it!

Crash Holly I assume wins by DQ because before the match Toronto fans would rush him to protect their star.

Nor can we discredit all the fantastic work wrestlers put into the Sharknado series.

Hey now I am detecting some sort of sarcasm I think in this post but seriously, I think people are just jealous that wrestlers are literally stacking dollars in multiple different mediums and it's all because they literally sweat blood putting in work to maximize their fitness and health goals every single day of their whole entire life while most people literally eat garbage and sit on their couch watching sports or fake news or netflix all night.

WWE is basically a live-action redneck soap opera. I wasn't aware it was even still a thing.

I have to admit I use to watch Wrestling back in the attitude era. I was also 12 years old

People still care about wrestling? I thought that was dying like religion.

Crash Holly w/ Molly Holly vs Auston Matthews w/ Mitch Marner.

They'll sell tickets just to see Matthews finally teaming with Marner.

WWE took another huge step into the mainstream, agreeing to deal with Fox reportedly worth $1 billion

The deal is a boon for the company, with The Hollywood Reporter claiming agreement is worth more than $1 billion for five years — making it worth more than three times WWE's current deal with NBCUniversal.

Doubt The Walking Dead could command such a price. Interesting!

Wrestling was a blast when I was 12

As a fan of the easiest team to troll on this site, I think a little bit of it is just how easy it is to get a reaction too. I mean this thread is ten pages on the premise of heel makes fun of the city he's in.

 

[K Fleur]

This site’s main board had more diverse thread topics when the Leafs sucked.

 

[InfinityIggy]

That was painful.

claiming to be unaware of the continued existence of wwe in this context is like saying you're unaware matthews isn't the best player in the national because you didn't know edmonton still had a team.

I'd pay to see that, except for the fact that Crash actually died fifteen years ago.

Interesting. Not saying it's not popular, I just don't personally hear or see much media about it anymore. It's never been my cup of tea, so maybe that's why.

They aren't the same thing, should we compare how it takes 5 years to earn the the same money the last avengers movie made.

but they know a semi-obscure hockey message board in which only like 25% of its combined content is actually about hockey prospects is a sanctuary for spicy debate about the legitimacy of pro wrestling and how it correlates to toronto's hockey tradition

WWE the company is worth more than they've ever been now. It's not dying.

Indy wrestling is prospering. It's not dying either.

Man that was lame AF. Grown men actually watch this ****?

It's WWE, seriously I thought it was entertaining.

First, the thread title got me excited to watch the clip (giggled like a little girl waiting for the video to load), then after that I could not wait to see HF reactions, then I knew I had to go on Twitter after to read the comments over there, etc..

This was the highlight of my boring morning at work... thanks OP!
