Wasn't really feeling it at all tbh. Joe is an absolute shadow of his former self - it makes me sad to see all the WWE marks going nuts over him when they probably haven't even seen any of his best work from 10 years ago

Zayn is great and could put on an amazing Iron Man match with somebody else in their prime but Joe just doesn't have that stamina any more.

Unbreakable 2005: Joe vs. Styles vs. Daniels

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U28pyOAMXcI

One of the greatest matches of all-time. This is the real Samoa Joe.
I'm pretty sure the general NXT audience is well aware of Samoa Joe and what he did before. It's just a pity TNA ruined him so badly.

The last few years of TNA pretty much killed his passion

His NXT matches may not be his best but they are better than anything he did in TNA for years.

I still don't understand this argument.

The Network is 24/7.

You can watch Roadblock any time you want.

Why is its start time relevant unless you're staying up to post about it live on here? And if you're the sort of person who does that, it's start time is probably irrelevant as you're obviously a huge fan...
I'm staying up to watch it but I certainly won't be posting about it on here.

I had every intention of staying up to watch Roadblock (just because I don't have work tomorrow), but less than two hours before it starts, I can't bring myself to watch it. Value my sleep too much. Hope those who stay up to watch it enjoy it.

Also, yesterday I requested to have the day after WrestleMania off. Anyone else doing the same?

No pre show for Roadblock.

Wonder if another NXT match will be added to the show.

Reminder - Raw starts at midnight for the next 2 weeks due to North America summer time, and it's back to 1am at Easter

Aware of =/= Watched

Sorry but don't buy the "TNA ruined him" argument. Unless TNA made him fat, slow and predictable, you mean...these would seem to be things Joe did to himself and that his time in NXT has done little to correct. Not that I blame the guy, he's getting a nice paycheque and a cushy little job right at the end of his career, so fair play to him.

Seeing as you don't watch TNA and never have I wouldn't expect you to be aware of anything Joe has done in TNA for years so this is a pointless comparison.

Exactly ags lol. It don't matter to James. He just hates TNA with a passion. Everything TNA does is bad, everything WWE does is great.

Joe actually did some of his best work in TNA.

Tailed off towards the end, though. But that was probably a result of being stuck in TNA with their ridiculous booking.

I do watch TNA and it's getting worse Spud vs EC3 as a main event feud Past His Prime Hardy as Champ only thing good they have is Beer Money.


Joes first years were great but then they gave up on him (One reason they got Angle) so he got fat and started to phone it in.

The IWC would literally soil their underwear if Ambrose walked (or limped, after HHH kicks several shades of brown stuff out of him) out tonight with the belt, therefore it's NOT happening, WWE doesn't care what the IWC wants.
I missed this, but aww how precious are you referring to people who discuss wrestling on the internet as the IWC! You DO realise that you're a part of that community, right? You don't get some sort of free pass because you feel you're above it all.

It has been pointed out, and ignored, a few times.

I am hoping Ambrose does become Champ (But know it won't happen)

I really don't think HHH vs Reigns will be a good main event match HHH's best years are behind him and Reigns is just no good.

At worse add Ambrose and/or Brock would make it better.

You DO watch TNA? Why on earth do you watch a program that you utterly despise? Even I don't watch TNA anymore it's gotten so bad, and I'm one of their biggest defenders on these boards.

I also hope Enzo and Cass are not on Roadblock to help bring them to the main roster as I just don't find either of them any good.

It's free to watch and it's on Sunday night when nothing else worth watching is on that is pretty much the only reason.

And as said I do like Beer Money.

I think their call up is pretty much inevitable, just a question of whether its now or night after Mania.

It has to be night after Mania. The pop for SWAFT will be incredible.

I think they're losing again tonight and then AA pick up the belts from Dash and Dawson soon after

I could see them winning tonight, then having a big deal send off match against American Alpha at Takeover Dallas.

Wow, are you trying to break a record for how wrong a poster can be on one page?

I know everyone seems to love them but I just can't see it.

They are not very good in the ring and not good at all on the mic.

I do think with their gimmick they would be better as heels.

My original thought process was, they win tonight, challenge New Day for the belts at Mania in an NXT v WWE situation. Enzo and Cass win, but sadly have to relinquish the NXT belts as this would obviously be their jump to the main roster
