  1. Dani Mo was also at the Power Slap...tryout? Combine. AFAIK they haven't worked together or on the same show since the OVW incident.

    All Elite Wrestling

    Looking at that team, climbing Everest 24 times is crazy work. Ang Dorjee was on Rob Hall's ill fated '96 expedition and the Adventure Consultants company is the one Darby used.
  3. They also kept playing that into the rematches. Backlund won the blowoff cage match when Graham got his foot tangled.
  4. Beyond the optics of the roast itself, it kind of amazes me that they thought a work related roast was a good idea. Would you trust your job telling you to cut loose on your co-workers?
  5. https://bsky.app/profile/luchablog.bsky.social/post/3lnalmpjnhc2c Sad to see. Someone who was having great matches practically til the day he passed.
  6. I always found it interesting how Tama was a star incredibly early in his career, before he turned 20. But by the time Rikishi became a star Tama was long faded. Never seen another pair of twins with career paths like it.
  7. I don't begrudge the GoFundMe because there's a ton of expenses not associated with normal medical bills. But yeah, shilling for it on your television show is awkward.
  8. Shelton Benjamin’s mother was my first thought.
  9. My going hypothesis is whatever they cover will push scandal entirely on Vince and whitewash the current WWE staff and their corporate culture.
  10. Every streaming service, Youtube ad, etc. It sucks.
  11. And government mandated anti-smoking advertisements.

    R.I.P. Sika

    Wikipedia has the Samoans winning tag titles in twelve different promotions. Almost all their footage comes from the last third of their run. I feel like there's a decent handful of their matches that were great but are lost to time.
  13. I remember that six man airing on the old WWE 24/7 service and it's indeed tremendous. Albano running and tagging a clearly fatigued Dick Murdoch back in is a highlight.
  14. Honestly, does any Hall of Fame exist with unassailable standards?

    WWE announces "WWE Speed"

    They need a version of WWE Speed just for entrances and recap packages.
  16. What other shows are folks attending this weekend. I'm missing this one but I'm heading to Euphoria and CFU on Thursday.
  17. There's a little chuckle in me that Ali is getting inducted in Joe Frazier's home city.
  18. There was a news article somewhere claiming Jones was a decade older than widely reported. I don't think that got verified but it's out there.
  19. World Class kind of had the same format. They would run a big show and then show the matches over the next couple weeks.
  20. Rock getting injured by Roman's minions would give Cody a way back in.
  21. Probably fits better here than the Meltzer thread. So Jericho? Or is that too presumptuous?
  22. A thought. With high definition tv could it be a matter of black gear being easier to avoid staining?
  23. McDevitt was clearly addressed in the lawsuit though not directly named. He comes off as quite a scumbag too:
  24. One of the commentators said something about seemingly every woman being an athletic specimen. And it’s great to see athletic women. But they all blend together and it becomes incredibly bland.
  25. My cynical question is if WWE gets Raw back to two hours with the motivation of being able to tape another show (or expand Main Event) that they can sell separately to distributors.
