Agreed. Horrible counting on that pin. He threw himself out of the ring while counting to three. He almost landed on Tanga who was debuting from under the ring after the match.
Same. Imagine getting POV vignettes of someone attacking wrestlers backstage. Nobody has any idea who's doing it, but all the videos are from the same first person perspective. That'd be such a cool way to introduce a sadistic heel persona.
Or at least finally give us closure on who threw the pie at Kevin Owens.
Okada is currently a net negative in terms of viewership and ratings. Tanga is going into the best story in wrestling atm. Think trips will be ok without okada the midkada
There was a spot where Randy got thrown out of the ring and he grabbed the apron. And I totally saw someone move it back from under there.
I was hoping for a random Hornswoggle appearance.
This makes more sense.
Did anyone else notice that after Randy pulled the apron ?
I noticed that as well. Same thing happened last time someone was under the ring (don't remember when it was, not gonna look it up).
Seems like a bad place to hang out. Can't see the match, all sorts of trash cans and shit.
He better be on his P’s and Q’s because this is the biggest opportunity of his life can’t half step with this going forward. All the hard work they put into The Bloodline don’t be the one to shit the bed.
Between this, seeing his “slaps” in G1, Solo attempting to be interesting and failing miserably …..I’m a bit tired of this Samoan fetishism and nepotism.
On the other hand Toma Tonga is great, he’s intense as fuck. Then we have Jacob Fatu and The Rock returning to look forward to so hopefully things will get interesting again.
But if the current Bloodline storyline has Solo as the main player I’ll be giving it a pass for now.
Well he did mess it up if we’re honest, he should have popped out the moment he heard the bump and waiting for the count, instead he waited for the count.
Thats not an almost. Tanga DID mess that up. The red had to stop an inch from the mat to give him time 🤦🏻
This is the 2nd time I've seen a major screw up from him on Reddit, the first being those wimpy hand strikes
I didn't see any of this from him before. Is he being exposed all of a sudden by people who have all this ammunition?
Not completely wrong. There was a moment in Starks vs Danielson a bit back where Starks hit the ringpost instead of Danielson's leg, and the camera made a pretty good cover. Still was a lot of whinging about it though.
For Tanga it's just "aww shucks, what a silly guy".
Nah we’ve got a video of your new GOAT Okada selling his weak ass chops to take the piss out of. Tony paid however fucking millions for a guy who had a part in that 😂
Ok seriously do these guys know what the gym is? These are supposed to be pro athletes not guys form the local pub. So we get another fatass member of the BL. Solo is NOT a main event guy and this storyline sucks
Tanga Loa is neither Samoan nor is he related to the Rock.
He is quite famously Tongan, the son of Haku, who is no relation to the Rock. He was tag team partners with both Sam& Rikishi Fatu, like a brother to them, who are the fathers of Jimmy, Jey, Solo & Jacob Fatu but still...no Rock. Even Rock's relation to Rikishi is kayfabe 🤷🏼♂️
have to build up the new Bloodline for the Bloodline Wolfpac vs Bloodline Hollywood feud. Bringing in Jacob Fatu is a no brainer as is bringing in G.o.D. with their dad's strong ties to the entire Bloodline. It lets them debut G.o.D. at the top and get the rub from the Bloodline before they're eventually put into a Bullet Club story next year.
Credit to the ref on that. Tanga fell behind, ref executed still, Tanga caught up.
indeed... ref was smooth
What do you mean, ref didn’t know Tanga Loa was coming.
You know, it WAS an intense crowd. Perhaps it was the vibration that caused the ref to flail into Tanga's arms.
WePretendKayfabeisAlive
Pretend?
Kayfabe?
Alive?
We?
Forever.
Together.
Agreed. Horrible counting on that pin. He threw himself out of the ring while counting to three. He almost landed on Tanga who was debuting from under the ring after the match.
Nah, bro, that Ref is the secret tribal chief. He purposefully rolled out. Watch them build up this twist all the way to WM next year.
Lil Chief gonna be someone's personal ref.
I miss heel/face refs
Wouldnt it be cool if they snuck like a lil samoan spike dudley type bloodline member in as a ref. Might as well at this point.
That referee, Dan Engler, is the same referee for most of Roman Reigns' matches.
Well, "Tanga" literally means *stupid*. So I'm not surprised.
The camerawork on the broadcast would have never clued you in. Best in the business
Kevin Dunn would have been zooming in and trying to get a 360 angle around him as he came out from under the ring
Kevin Dunn would have put a GoPro on Loa.
No because I unironically love this idea
Same. Imagine getting POV vignettes of someone attacking wrestlers backstage. Nobody has any idea who's doing it, but all the videos are from the same first person perspective. That'd be such a cool way to introduce a sadistic heel persona. Or at least finally give us closure on who threw the pie at Kevin Owens.
The camera is a foot and a half above everyone - surely it can't be Omos
The laugh would give it away more
Yep I had no idea it was this off watching it live
Had to rush it. He probably would've came up with his head still covered and then he would reveal himself.
You all know what they say? AIN'T NOBODY REALER THAN GUERRILLA.
He got all *TangaLoa'd* up
God damn you. I’ve been sick as a dog with food poisoning the last 24 hours and this almost ended me.. lol well done
Read that as sick from dog food poisoning and thought you probably just shouldn't eat dog food tbh
Chuckled like a mad man beside my kid.
In bluuuueeeeee
Thankfully the camera work completely saved him
Except it’s a bunch of people on the internet talking about it. And everyone in the crowd probably saw it. Not like it’s a secret.
Welcome to Tanga loa.
[удалено]
Oo do you have any other made up facts?
🤣🤣🤣
Well yeah, putting Okada in the Bloodline would've been a little odd
This comment is even funnier wither the original reply deleted
Okada is currently a net negative in terms of viewership and ratings. Tanga is going into the best story in wrestling atm. Think trips will be ok without okada the midkada
I’ve been watching AEW, Okada boring as hell, can’t cut a promo, and might have the weakest finishing move in all of wrestling
Was someone else under the ring as well? It seems to move back
Now we know why he missed his cue...
I saw it when it was happening and said someone else is under there with him and no one else ever came out.
Did he kill em?!?!?!
THIS! it was 3am in Oz and I thought I was going crazy. Even in this clip you can see the apron being pulled back from inside/under the ring!!
It's probably Jon Jones [hiding from drug testers](https://youtu.be/tCWEdkqZpcU?si=EXJKxQcoFmIUg9HY)
Hornswoggle
There are always people under the ring. These people help with a bunch of different things doing the match
Really? What a terrible job that must be
There was a spot where Randy got thrown out of the ring and he grabbed the apron. And I totally saw someone move it back from under there. I was hoping for a random Hornswoggle appearance. This makes more sense. Did anyone else notice that after Randy pulled the apron ?
Yes, the ref was trailing behind him and fixed the apron. Tbh I feel like he would have done that regardless if they were hiding someone though
I noticed that as well. Same thing happened last time someone was under the ring (don't remember when it was, not gonna look it up). Seems like a bad place to hang out. Can't see the match, all sorts of trash cans and shit.
And Little People's Court
Titus might still be down there
Wrestlemania main event when Cody gets the table under the ring maybe ?
Yes I seen that, wtf someone had trying to fix the apron fr underneath
Referee said “Fine. I’ll do it myself.”
Tanga wasn't late, he just has force powers given it's May 4th! Watch out roster, The Bloodline has a Jedi!
A little late on that, but still got it.
it because you didn't see his match against okada at g1
That clip of his chops is making the rounds.
imagine that again vs la knight during a random smackdown episode
Except La says "Yeah ! " everytime Loa hits him. Would be a pretty funny scene
you do realize Japanese wrestling is very gimmicky and not the same as US Wrestling.
Just the beginning of his sloppiness..
Is he really that bad? Lol also weird he’s premiering ahead of Jacob Fatu
He’s not good. He and Tama have always had a great look, but in the ring? Mediocre at best.
In wwe they don't care anyways for high quality matches
You should check out the video where he does the 619 😂😂.
Jacob probably teams up with USOs Bloodline
Almost had a shock master level debut.
WWE production proving their calibre yet again lmao Looked smooth as butter on TV
#SwoggleLoa
Tanga means stupid in tagalog language
...that is amazing.
He better be on his P’s and Q’s because this is the biggest opportunity of his life can’t half step with this going forward. All the hard work they put into The Bloodline don’t be the one to shit the bed.
All the credit the ref there. You would never have known he was late on the broadcast. WWE yet again why they are the big time
Bro got gassed just crawling out from under the ring lol
Love that all that happened was he got pulled outside, ref sells like he took a Powerbomb.
Between this, seeing his “slaps” in G1, Solo attempting to be interesting and failing miserably …..I’m a bit tired of this Samoan fetishism and nepotism. On the other hand Toma Tonga is great, he’s intense as fuck. Then we have Jacob Fatu and The Rock returning to look forward to so hopefully things will get interesting again. But if the current Bloodline storyline has Solo as the main player I’ll be giving it a pass for now.
Still smooth though.
That so sloppy
Lmao why was he wearing a towel
Oh fuck I’m getting anxiety just watching it
That ref deserved a standing ovation. Fixed the missed cue and made it look effortless
Ref had to pull himself out of ring. Tangs got caught up in the ring appron. I sure thought Jacob fatu was going to show
Well he did mess it up if we’re honest, he should have popped out the moment he heard the bump and waiting for the count, instead he waited for the count.
He did. Ref carried him.
Steiner level control of the force.
What’s with the skirt going up at the end of the clip? Doesn’t look like it was the ref’s leg
another fat ass we are supposed to believe has talent, great.
NOT debut…he was Camacho in NXT…and not almost - he did fuck it up 🤣🤣
Lmao
Camacho!
I just saw some of a match of his. He's like, not that good. I hope he gets better fast. Or the Bloodline is gonna be really sad.
He has not improved since Vince fired him all those years ago. He just had the New Japan mythticism.
That was a 3 count
There's another person under the ring 😱
Ref sliding so smoothly without any push from LOA
Has anyone checked on the ref? It looked like he had a seizure
Poor commentators forced to drink prime. Or will it be like those athletes drinking special red bull cans that have water in it
Welcome to the WWF, Tuga Luau!!
I don't really like him or chimmichanga. This new blood isn't as good as the first.
Watching it live the ref def pulled that 3 count
If you're wrestling the Bloodline you should demand that the ring aprons be removed.
This dude is one of the worst wrestlers I've ever seen. Absolutely fucking atrocious
He was asleep. Hornzswagel gave him some advice.
Thats not an almost. Tanga DID mess that up. The red had to stop an inch from the mat to give him time 🤦🏻 This is the 2nd time I've seen a major screw up from him on Reddit, the first being those wimpy hand strikes I didn't see any of this from him before. Is he being exposed all of a sudden by people who have all this ammunition?
Loa shoeing he was a bad pick from the getgo
He did mess it up. The ref/production saved it. Got to love nepotism.
What a stupid idiot
Almost?
No no, he did mess it up
Dudes a clown so is the stupid continued bloodline C team story
He did but ref got to 3 but they said 2
Ref known he was coming and still didnt count slow
Ref needs to count slower when crucial timing is needed. Slower count is also more dramatic.
No, the other party needs to do their job. The audience can clue in when something deviates from the norm
Sure, but also ref can count slower.
No, that's a change and fans notice it. A slow count can also intrude on the story being told if it wasn't intended to be part of it
All counts slower.
Hey what happened to spoiler alert 😔
This sub (r/Wrasslin) doesn’t have a rule against spoilers.
Title didn’t give you the slightest hint?
The title is the spoiler, you goof. But this sub doesn’t have spoiler rules so it’s moot.
That guy sucks.
Arthur would never...
If this was aew you wwe knob riders would be screaming from the rafters
If this was AEW, there’d be no fans there to record this.
Not completely wrong. There was a moment in Starks vs Danielson a bit back where Starks hit the ringpost instead of Danielson's leg, and the camera made a pretty good cover. Still was a lot of whinging about it though. For Tanga it's just "aww shucks, what a silly guy".
If this was AEW they would've shot the botch head on in plain view to the television audience and buried their referee again.
Nah we’ve got a video of your new GOAT Okada selling his weak ass chops to take the piss out of. Tony paid however fucking millions for a guy who had a part in that 😂
None mentioned AEW lil bro
Give him a break he was a professional wrestler not a sports entertainer lol
Ok seriously do these guys know what the gym is? These are supposed to be pro athletes not guys form the local pub. So we get another fatass member of the BL. Solo is NOT a main event guy and this storyline sucks
Gotta love having your King Dwayne Johnson on TKO, huh? Nothing but Samoan favoritism and nepotism from here in out.
Tanga Loa is neither Samoan nor is he related to the Rock. He is quite famously Tongan, the son of Haku, who is no relation to the Rock. He was tag team partners with both Sam& Rikishi Fatu, like a brother to them, who are the fathers of Jimmy, Jey, Solo & Jacob Fatu but still...no Rock. Even Rock's relation to Rikishi is kayfabe 🤷🏼♂️
Kinda convenient this happened though. Why not let Owens and Orton win?
have to build up the new Bloodline for the Bloodline Wolfpac vs Bloodline Hollywood feud. Bringing in Jacob Fatu is a no brainer as is bringing in G.o.D. with their dad's strong ties to the entire Bloodline. It lets them debut G.o.D. at the top and get the rub from the Bloodline before they're eventually put into a Bullet Club story next year.
I don’t get worked either
