SuperSteve Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 I was watching Raw tonight, and Mark Henry, 'The World's Strongest Man,' used a bearhug to win his match. It was teh ugliest f***ing bearhug I have ever seen. He had the wrong grip, and he had his elbows out, and he was moving them left and right instead of in. Oh how wrong.

SuperSteve Posted December 9, 2003 Author Share Posted December 9, 2003 Steve, I absolutely looovvvvvvvvvvvved that Iowa-Iowa State Wrestling match. 7-0! Oh man are the Cyclones tough, but they are not the best team in America. They are ranked first right now, but Iowa wasn't at full strength, plus Eustice should beat the bigger Paulson (he lost in ot). When Israel Martinez (West Aurora HS, JuCo Natl Champ at North Idaho State, transfer this year and eligable in Jan) gets there, Iowa will be even better. They will get another transfer who will crack their lineup too. The Okie State vs Iowa State dual will be the test. Okie State will be full strength, and their 2x NCAA Champion has finally been wrestling well (Johnny Thompson). We get to see Iowa in January I believe.

The Cyclones were not expected to be good at all. It's a nice surprise. Makes my Bobby Douglas autograph worth more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CubKilla Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 I guess he is like the strong bad guy now, something like that. It was just pure awful. Wrestling has really blown since the WWE bought out WCW and ECW. And the new crop of wrestlers suck. Not entertaining in the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are very few good wrestlers out there these days. I like the guys who remind me of old days like HBK, Flair, and the Rock shocked me last night as well. Mark Henry has been around since what? 96? and he has been doing nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperSteve Posted December 9, 2003 Author Share Posted December 9, 2003 heck #3 for the illini i am happy! They will only keep dropping. They have one the best wrestlers in the nation (Tirapelle, #1 at 157), but Ott and Martin have been awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Kickass Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 Wrestling has really blown since the WWE bought out WCW and ECW. And the new crop of wrestlers suck. Not entertaining in the least. They need to bring back WCW and ECW alliance battling the WWE. That was promising but scrapped quickly. Kinda sucks now, I'll give you that.
