Cross Face Chicken Wing

I was disappointed as soon as HHH was nominated. He does not belong anywhere on a GWE list. But in reality, I'm not really getting worked up about people finish outside of the top 100. As long as HHH lands outside of the top 100, I'll breathe easier.

Sabu made the bottom of my list. He's gotten shit on in recent years, so I actually didn't think he'd crack the top 150.

Dixie by far. I'm hardly one to talk about the modern product since I rarely tune in, but TNA is bad in a "oh my god this is awful" way whereas WWE is bad in a "yeah it sucks overall, but there's enough here to lure me back every now and then." Plus it's frustrating to see that TNA had a legit opportunity to possibly provide some real competition for WWE and instead chose to make itself into a lame imitation of the worst aspects of WWE. I also don't mind Stephanie's TV character in small doses. If she'd quit booking herself and her dipshit husband for 20 minute promos and multiple segments every Raw, I'd probably go so far as to call her TV character pretty damn good.

If No, 141 is Buddy Rose I might cry.

What I don't want is for HHH to show up in the top 100.

If Brody just sold even a little bit, I could see him possibly making the bottom of my list. But watching him just do his thing and never sell got old for me fast.

Why was the squid/calamari thing not nominated? Massive oversight by the PWO community.

HHH is going to finish above Landell. Oye. I'm still a caveman and prefer DVDs over streaming. I often feel like I don't know where to start when I'm watching streaming services or browsing YouTube and spend more time clicking around than actually watching.

That's not my intention at all. I'm just genuinely curious to compare various sectors of voters to the overall list. But if it's too much work to do that kind of thing, it's not a big deal.

And, I'm sure, once the results have come out, there'll be some kind of King James Version of the list; which takes account only of ballots submitted by the more trusted board members. I actually doubt that such a thing will exist, but a million-billion points to you for calling it the King James version. Still the best version of the Bible, even if it's wildly inaccurate. There was talk of doing a PWO-PTBN hosts one. I think I put in a request for this a while back, if it was possible to do. I'm genuinely curious how the top 100 broken up into different sectors shakes out vs. the top 100 overall. Categories might include PWO-PTBN hosts, people who began watching in the 90s compared to people who began watching in the 80s, people who voted for HHH (boo) vs. people who didn't (yay), people who have been on PWO for more than x number of years vs. people who joined in the last two years, etc., etc.

I feel like we need a podcast where somebody takes an hour to shit all over various picks. Not in a mean or dickish way, but in a "hey, we're all friends here and I respect your opinion but goddammit why did you rate Jeff Jarrett so high and cite his late-era face work as the reason for fuck's sake?" kinda way.

Full credit to HHH for the Bryan match. It was great and he was great in it. But it doesn't outweigh the dozens of absolute train wrecks of suckage he's been involved with. HHH is going to rank much too high, in my not so humble opinion.

Come on, you know he's going to be higher than the likes of Stan Lane and Kenny Omega. I didn't vote for him, but he has a history of big matches. He has a history of flopping in big matches. Not just flopping, but falling flat on his face on some of the biggest stages (that he usually booked himself on).

Has HHH really not shown up yet? I'm starting to get worried......

Thought I would provide a wrestling-centric update on my battle. An attempt to perform a rare procedure in early January (called HIPEC surgery with de-bulking) was halted with me on laying on the surgery table. Once I was opened up, the surgeon determined that my cancer had spread too far -- beyond what my initial CT scans had shown -- and that it was too risky to continue with the procedure. My family and I were devastated. Unfortunately, cancer doesn't care much about feelings so I tried to snap out of it as quickly as I could. I had to heal from the surgery, so chemotherapy couldn't start until February. Chemo began in early February, and it absolutely sucks both physically and mentally. The side effects haven't been as bad as I prepared myself for, but chemo is still the worst thing ever. It's hard to describe, but it's just a complete drain. Chemotherapy can fuck right off. Today was my first CT scan since starting chemo. Since we haven't had any good news during this battle, we were prepared for the worst. But the news was positive. The cancer hadn't spread further since my pre-chemo scan. My oncologist said my cancer was like a freight train speeding along at 100 MPH after my failed surgery. Today, he said that freight train has been stopped, for now. Whew, thank you chemo. Sorry I told you to fuck off earlier. So what does this have to do with wrestling? It sounds silly, and it is, but wrestling helps me get through some of the tough times. Here's how: I don't do well with silence since this whole ordeal began. If it's too quiet in the house, my mind starts racing, negative thoughts creep in, and I go off the rails mentally. No matter how wiped I am from the chemo, I can't nap during the day because of the silence. My mind simply won't allow it. Here's where wrestling podcasts work wonders. Listening to a 4-hour "Between the Sheets" or a marathon pod unveiling GWE lists allows me to relax without the bad thoughts taking over my brain. You have no idea how happy I was to see a 9-hour "Wrestling with the Past" GWE podcast pop up in my feed this week. Perfect timing since I'll be laid up from chemo this weekend. Doing things I enjoyed pre-cancer helps me overcome the depression and anxiety that come with being diagnosed with cancer. I spent a lot of time laying around feeling sorry for myself after both my diagnosis and failed surgery. One day I forced myself to watch some wrestling -- something I've always enjoyed doing -- to help snap myself out of it. It's helped. Getting back to doing things you enjoy is a major step in learning to live with cancer instead of feeling sorry for yourself that you have cancer. To all who have put together the GWE project: THANK YOU! Diving into that project is a nice reprieve from the constant cancer talk that's filled our house in recent months. I've come up with a new way to rate matches: If I'm knocked down from chemo, any match that keeps me awake past 6 p.m. is considered a good to great match. The latest NXT special kept me awake until like 11 p.m. so I consider all of those matches 5-star classics. If you have any matches you'd like rated using this new system, let me know That's about it. The battle continues. If you'd like more details, my Caring Bridge site is here.

Agreed. After making fun of the anonymous voters for certain votes, I'd genuinely like to learn more about their wrestling tastes.

The fact that HHH hasn't shown up yet and guys like One Man Gang and Kevin Sullivan have has me worried.

Someone voted Kamala in their top 50. I don't know this person in real life but I now consider him/her a friend and wish I would have displayed his/her courage and fortitude and also put Kamala in my top 50 instead of at 99.

Done. Now I can get back to building that wall along the border.

We should probably just make everybody change their avatar to the pic of the lowest ranked guy they were high voter on. Scarlet letter the shit out of this place and shame everyone. It would be glorious. That's a great idea......unless you're me.....the guy who's the high voter on someone who played a pro-apartheid gimmick.

At what point will the nostalgia pops for guys like Austin, Rock, Foley and HBK die off? 5 years from now? 10 years from now? Never? As soon as WWE actually starts booking current wrestlers above the nostalgia acts? When the group of guys who currently receive huge nostalgia pops fade away or are no longer used, will WWE have new nostalgia acts to replace them? Fifteen years down the road, will Jericho come out to a huge pop at Wrestlemania and beat up a current worker? Will Cena be able to generate the loudest cheers of the night just by standing in the middle of the ring and smiling like Rock does today? How long will Daniel Bryan be able to get an arena full of people to chant "YES!" ? Will anybody give Randy Orton or HHH a nostaliga pop 15 years from now? Or will we call their reactions nostalgic indifference? Edit: For the record, I'm not complaining about the nostalgia acts receiving such big pops. I love the fact that Austin and Rock are still around. It helps suck back in lapsed fans like me who no longer can stomach the current product. I'm just generally curious how long people think the nostalgia pops can last for these guys.

A Jerry Saggs Fiasco set (actually, any set from any terrible bar cover band ever) wouldn't be complete without a horrible cover of "Don't Stop Believing"

Sooo........ I made a mistake. Will edit and fix. DeBeers will move up higher. In short, I'm an idiot. Yes! (At DeBeers moving up. Not yes, you're an idiot.)

There is nothing funny about Wisko/DeBeers not making the top 500 and getting a picture.

Well, Col. DeBeers......same thing.
