Ph3N0M Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 Report and 30-second GIF: - On Friday night Bellator 123 took place at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut, and you can read the complete report at this link. Here are the highlights for you wrestling fans.In a heavyweight fight, TNA World Champion Bobby Lashley (now 11-2) returned to MMA for the first time since November of 2013, and scored a second round submission over Josh Burns (now 8-8). Burns wasn't much competition for Lashley, who controlled the fight and won without much resistance. This was good news for TNA, who were risking a lot with their World Champion taking an MMA fight. Of note, Lashley had no sponsorships on his shorts, not even a TNA logo. While Lashley won the fight, he still showed some of the problems that have held him back in MMA. He couldn't finish his submissions (he had several attempts at a key lock) and due to his size and build, got tired. No word on when Lashley will fight again for Bellator. He has won four fights in a row, dating back to June of 2013. In a light heavyweight fight, part time TNA performer King Mo (now 13-4) defeated Dustin Jacoby (now 10-4) via second round TKO. Mo controlled the striking against Jacoby, who is normally a middleweight and was a late replacement, Mo's third opponent as the other two fell out. Mo looked good, rebounding from his controversial loss to Rampage Jackson back in May. Mo stated that he was a, "Money-Weight Fighter" and will fight at middle, light heavy or heavyweight for Bellator. Mo is now 5-3 in Bellator, and 2-2 in his last four fights. You can watch the finishes of both fights below… Read more at http://www.411mania.com/wrestling/news/334346/Bellator-123-Results-%E2%80%93-How-Did-Lashley-and-King-Mo-Perform?.htm#Q72DrR5GjKY8ebmr.99 GIF: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ĐingoĐile © Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 Heyman is the best Mic worker, bar none. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyofx Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 Hard to pick. I remember Eric Bischoff being pretty decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ĐingoĐile © Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 Heyman, Ambrose, Wyatt, Jericho, HHH and Stephanie are the best right now. Heyman is easily up there as the best of all time, man. He is unbelievable. That promo in Chicago was astonishing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sachin... Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 I miss Eric Bischoff. He was great on mic. Its hard to hate triple h coz he was good guy before becoming COO. We need someone like Vince or Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AronorA Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 There have been a lot of great mic workers but no one brings such Raw emotions as Heyman.The man mesmerizes you ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ph3N0M Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Watched the above segmemt after reading so many praises. Heyman was good as usual, but I wouldn't call this his best work yet. John Cena was also great. People are generally so engrossed in "hating" him that his mic work often remains underrated. No matter how stale his character is, the guy does his best to play it. Speaking about best mic workers, Bully Ray is also a very capable contender. People still talk about how he managed to turn a seemingly random and full-of-plot-holes Aces & 8s storyline into something that seemed very well-executed. No one else could have saved that story arc at that time(and even he wasn't able to save it for long though, as Aces & 8s were fundamentally a weak concept to hang around for long). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umBQ34LSDlo Austin Aries is another name that is at that level in my opinion. And Bischoff of course was at that level. I wish Bischoff could still be in TNA. He was sacked because of Hogan's faults. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ph3N0M Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) Can TNA get over? A very well-written article including actual statements from people like Dixie Carter, Jeff Jarrett, AJ Styles and Vince Russo. It's tough times for the company with a completely uncertain future, and ironically they are having the best product in ages right now.
