Since everyone else posted

I just wanted to say the whole Virgil changing his name to Vincent  never occurred to me as being brilliant until today.

Rüsty Repört

Hey dudes. Remember me? Why do I never post anymore? Well, mainly because i only have a small tablet and it is kinda a bitch to type on. Oh well, im here ñow to report on what I have been watching lately...

WK9 was awesome. I had a great time watching it in the van. In fact almost everything I have watched in the last month was in the our van during long drives. It is such a luxoury! It also doubles the entertainment factor. But I wouldn't blame the van for WK9 being so good. I would blame the Nakamura Ibushi match. More on that later...

I have been actually digging Raw lately. I blame that partially on the van. But who cares. It is fun and I really like some of the dudes on the roster. I think it is kinda a cool time right now and will get even better soon when....

Owens vs Zayn was killer. Those guys awe awesome. And I really buy Owens as a brute. I mean, I know you two know this already. But as the official SCW mark I just gotta say it. That match was awesome and the finish was totally brutal. I can't wait to see more from these two.

Yeah I still watch wcw all the time. Blah blah blah.

OK. My two fav matches of the year so far.

Nakamura's vs ibushi . by far. I showed like 5 minutes to my non wrestling band mate and he loved it. Especially the over the top rope suplex thing which ruuuuuuled.

Ziggler vs Luke Harper TLC match. Shit. This was from December of last year. Dang. I loved that match

That is it for now homies.

Before tour I'll do an audio podcast. Till then, stay rusty folks.

Poncho Man's WWE Fastlane Preview

I'm down to the wire and need to merge into the fastlane.....of blogging. What jackass focus group came up with Fastlane as the name of a wrestling event. Oh....the "Road To Wrestlemania." I get it. Whatever.

Preshow
MizTV featuring Paul Heyman
The Miz is back to his regularly scheduled spot on the card...the preshow. Whatever...this will be a really great Paul Heyman promo and we will oooh and aaah at how good he is.

Sting and Triple H meet in the ring.
And they hug it out. Will Sting talk? Will he do his kinda awkward Ric Flair woo? Will he be the Joker again? (remember that? that was weird!) This will most likely be Sting pointing a baseball bat at the WrestleMania sign, and I'll probably mark out just a little.

Seth Rollins, Kane, and Big Show vs. Dolph Ziggler, Erick Rowan, and The Ryback
I'm so used to watching 3 on 3 matches in every promotion I watch other than WWE that I'm kinda confused, BUT this match actually has a story that goes all the way back to Survivor Series. How about that!? And we still would prefer a Seth Rollins vs. Dolph Ziggler singles match.

Stardust vs. Goldust
I hope Dusty gets involved and they wrestle at WrestleMania with the love of Dusty Rhodes on the line.

Paige vs. Nikki Bella for the WWE Divas Championship
Maybe this will be good? Still confused as to why Brie is a heel. Stockholm Syndrome. Paige is still hot.

The Brass Ring Club vs. The Usos for the Tag Team Championship
I heard the Lucha Dragons made their main roster debut. Go Kalisto! Cesaro and Tyson Kidd are infinitely more entertaining than most tag teams because they both know how to get over in that awkward way that Vince McMahon hates. They do cool stuff like put cats on their tights, and do funny spins that no "badass" would do, and people like us (whether we are smarks or not) love it because we have senses of humor. Btw...Usos...still boring.

Dean Ambrose vs. Bad News Barrett for the Intercontinental Championship
I hope Dean Ambrose does an Ed McMahon laugh...and then he can draw a picture of a mermaid...and then he can water a garden....and then he polish some silver....then he can do a Will Ferrell imitation....and then he can give Byron Saxton a Valentine....and then he can build a chair from pieces of old chairs that he broke. I think I wrote tv for Dean Ambrose for the next few months. While BNB can report about all of this on BNZ. Give me a job WWE!!!!

John Cena vs. Rusev for the United States Championship
I like it when Lana wears red the best. White Second. Aquamaroon third.

Daniel Bryan vs. Roman Reigns #1 Contenders Match
Well, at least we've never seen this before. I'm on the edge of my seat to find out what happens. DBD is headlining a PPV....with somebody that's not as big of a star as him. This whole thing makes me all kinds of happy.

Well, I can't think of much else to talk about. Lucha Underground just had the debut of Alberto El Patron (I guess ROH did too...but Lucha Underground did it better....ROH made Jay Lethal look good thought...this makes no sense unless you saw it). For some reason I can see Alberto El Patron not being as bland as he was on WWE TV already (except when he almost killed Santa)....but maybe that's just me. I quit watching TNA a few weeks ago. They were on a roll towards the end of Spike, and then got boring again on Destination America. How about Samoa Joe? Does WWE let him get away because he's "too old" or does he show up in New Japan...like I predicted a few months ago...because I do things like that.

Okay that was more than "much else." Enjoy the show boys...wherever you are.

Poncho Man's NXT TakeOver:Rival Preview

As Rusty is eagerly awaiting more Nakamura matches and texting me about how exciting WrestleKingdom 9 was....we'll be preparing ourselves for this dandy. Who would have thought after Final Battle a few years ago that this would be something the WWE would want and promote without buying ROH. Anyway....

Baron Corbin vs. Bull Dempsey in a No Disqualification Match
I personally don't "get" Baron Corbin. Bull Dempsey I love. Dempsey has a Baby Huey via territory wrestler charm that I maybe is so great because we just don't seen ANYONE like that anymore. Hopefully he gets a main roster run that leads him to Japan in a few years...where everyone will be scared of him.

Adrian Neville vs Finn Balor #1 Contenders Match
Ummm....cool? Body paint vs The Future "Mighty Mouse." I can't remember if I've seen this match before, but as with anything in NXT that we've "seen before" we'll get the WWE style instead of whatever indie this was at before style....which may not always mean better or worse...just different. Whatever...I can't complain about seeing a Pac vs Prince Devitt match...anywhere anytime.

Wesley Blake and Buddy Murphy vs The LuchaDragons for the NXT Tag Titles
I don't like looking at Blake and Murphy. I really hope WWE doesn't drop the ball with Kalisto. He's your next Mysterio. I personally find his move set more entertaining than Mysterio. I bet Kalisto and Stardust could tear the house down every night for a year. Anyway, I hope The LuchaDragons losing the titles was a way to split them up and make Kalisto the best thing ever...and not a gay hairdresser.

Speaking of Kalisto wrestling singles matches....I have a feeling we might get a little Solomon Crowe right around here. The weird interruptions have become a regular thing and I'm excited to see the former Sami Callihan as he's not been on my tv since like EVOLVE 14 or something.

Charlotte vs Bayley vs Sasha Banks vs Becky Lynch for the NXT Woman's Title
Let's see if the ladies can put on a show as good as the last four way match NXT had. I'm guessing that they can come close.

Sami Zayn vs Kevin Owens for the NXT Championship
If you're a wrestling fan you are excited for this. If you have a pulse...you would probably get excited watching this. I hope I'm not TOO excited for this.

Well, hope all is well on your fronts. RAW seemed enjoyable last night, or I was just drunk? #booromanreigns Excited for The New Beginning. Rusty...you'll need to watch NJPW on AXS next...it's replays with english commentary. Kind of a "best of" for the last few years and will get you up to date on NJPW's "storylines." Anybody considering the house show? Is it next month? Mick Foley? Probably sold out? Okay...talk to you later. Poncho Out

Shit....totally forgot to include pictures of Seth Rollin's fully erect Tyler Black. Maybe next time....
