That's right, in another edition of Tapology Talks we bring to you pro wrestling! I've seen individual threads on pro wrestling, I've seen pro wrestling talk litter all over the "Slow Days" thread so why don't we try to manage the talk?

And what better way than to open up a Tapology Talks thread, amirite?

So to start the conversation, who here's a pro wrestling fan, when were you introduced to pro wrestling, your favorite wrestlers, etc. etc?

I became a pro wrestling fan in 2008, my first match I ever saw was WWE Raw with CM Punk vs MVP, my favorite wrestlers are CM Punk, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Daniel Bryan. I'm starting to watch pro wrestling again because CM Punk's slowly turning heel, and that's great news.

How bout you?

He was apparently clinically dead for twenty minutes.

I hope they don't being this into the storyline. I remember a few years ago after Eddie Guerrero died, Randy Orton came out to the ring and cut a promo about how Eddie was in hell.

Randy Orton ******* sucks. I like his moveset, but his gimmick sucks, and he fails drug tests for anabolic steroids constantly.

@Cthulhu, he isnt a ****** wrestler. He just needs to be a heel. I dont know if he has much of a gimmick but if he does, it suits him better to be a villain.

I pretty much stopped watching about 6 months after Zack Ryder debuted and Edge/HBK/Jericho retired...I couldn't believe they weren't pushing him, I was the only one at RAW with a LI sign...so I kinda gave up, but him, Punk and Ziggler were my favorite guys and they weren't being used properly. Seems like they are now though...of course it happens when I don't watch haha. I take great pride in my fanboy-ism of Ryder before everyone else though.

Several sources have confirmed that Jerry Lawler had a heart attack.

I hear Lawler is in stable condition and he's breathing on his own.

I used to watch every WWE show from like 2005-2008/09 and then transitioned to MMA (thank God)

I was a big fan (my favorites being Cena and Orton) an dactually invested way more time and energy than I probably should have. Looking back I wish my attention had been brought to MMA a lot sooner.

If my friend could have gotten his work shift changed we would probably be going to Smackdown tonight in Ottawa.  Never considered going to an event because of how many little kids are there these days, but I think it'd be something worth doing at least once.

Hopefully it's just a heart cath. That's nowhere near as dangerous as say a bypass. Needless to say the king can hang up the leotard for a while though, his ring duties are done.

Cena kicking out of the GTS twice might be the biggest ******** I've ever seen in my life, that's one of the WWE's few true "kayfabe KO" moves and they made Cena kick out of it...twice. That's like getting someone kicking out of the Tombstone twice, it shouldn't ******* happen 'cause it doesn't ******* happen.

CM Punk's reaction to retaining the title was hilarious, he like cuddled the belt with this "myyyy preciousssss" look on him, ******* awesome match.

And if Cena kicks out of the first GTS, he should've been down by the second or CM Punk should've lost. But no way should they have let Cena kick out of the move twice, it's the GTS not the ******* FU or the Pedigree or some ****.

Why is it surprising? Cena is simply this generation's Hulk Hogan, of course he's going to no sell everything.

I thought I was the only one who noticed that. I thought it would have ended with Heyman pulling the ref out of the ring and Punk clocking Cena with the title.

Punk pulled out a crossface and Cena COMPLETELY NO SELLED IT. It annoyed the **** out of me.

I was pretty sure a crossface means less these days now that it is not a Finisher.

So Raw just ended with Punk kicking Mick Foley down backstage. He then walks away but turns around to do more damage but is shocked to see Ryback defending Foley. That was uhh...interesting? I was really hoping they would make CM Punk vs Mick Foley at HIAC but they are gonna go with Punk vs Cena.
