Mad Dog

2014 into about October of 2015.

But they needed all of those super kicks and a Castle push would have drastically reduced the amounts of super kicking on the shows.

They're going to look like epic level morons if Castle leaves and becomes a star somewhere else.

We're going to be getting Jack Swagger vs. Bully Ray main events at the rate RoH is losing talent.

I always forget about that match for some reason.

We saw what he did to Santa Claus...

So would his best match be the Prime Time Wrestling match with Rick Rude from 1989?

That's what I did. People wanted upwards of $50 for some shows or you just couldn't find it. I said fuck it at that point and just did torrents of the first 8 or so years of shows. I was willing to give them hundreds of dollars and they didn't want it.

Dennis Stamp passed away. I wasn't sure if I had ever seen him wrestling but it looks like I've seen him pull job duty in the WWF and AWA.

No, I was actively trying to get their old shows on eBay and yeah, that didn't last long.

I've talked to a few of my friends about doing a rewatch podcast for RoH.

This seems like the place to post this. Low Ki vs. Samoa Joe from the first Glory By Honor is probably still my favorite RoH match ever. That the one where they just beat the shit out of each other and Ki wins by knocking Joe out with a head kick.

I'm not even saying it to hate on Cody. I think he hit about the highest point that someone of his abilities could in the WWE. I think people forget that being a career mid-carder with numerous title reigns isn't being held down.

Daniels... he's not someone I really want to see as a singles now. He's still good in tags because he can split the workload and he still has starpower at his age. But he's lost a step and I don't think RoH has the caliber of workers to really bring out the best in him.

The six man stuff are just filler on cards anyway. Bully is inoffensive there. Sounds like Lio Rush is Evolve bound.

It still surprises me that people get excited for his appearances. I can't think of anything he's done since leaving that's been better than solid.

Never really understood how this myth that Hero got fired due to his weight still persists. At the time of his release he was actually pretty damn slim - I'd say he actually lost weight while there. I believe he didn't lose enough weight was the story at the time. It could have just been their excuse at the time too.

That goes both ways though. Remember when Gangrel lost his push because his gut popped out on TV?

Yes, you are very wrong to think he is better than 90% of the roster. I'm going to be honest. I was fat my entire life until about a month ago. I kind of wish more people had stepped on my toes about it. I might have done something about it sooner.

I'm sure if they wanted them they would be willing to grease the right palms to get him in.

Honest question, should Chris Hero's weight be off limits? He was fired for his weight previously.

Are you going to do any podcasts for this?

I think you have to look at the fans hating on an overweight wrestler like you do your favorite sports team. Think about the fanbases whipping boy on the team and all the hypocritical things that player gets bashed for that beloved players get forgiven for. So if the fans hate you then being fat is just another thing you can bash them for. They don't really care ultimately but hey gotta find as much as possible to complain about.

There's also the fact that RoH opens a door to New Japan for the Hardys.

The Truth Martini placement really surprises me as I view him as one of the absolute worst parts of the product for the last 5-6 years.
