    He has had Rob Van Dam and Mick Foley on before. The one with Mick is pretty good. Jay knows his stuff, both as a fan and having a brief background in amateur wrestling himself.

    The sleaziness comes as much from WCW letting it on the air than Ed doing the impersonation. If it just existed as something that was a backstage off-camera thing to amuse the boys, that's one thing. It's entirely another when a huge corporate entity as Time Warner risks the kind of complaints they could well have gotten from it. AFAIK it only stirred uproar in the IWC and not in mainstream press, so in that sense WCW got away with it. But it tarnished a legacy that was on shaky ground to begin with.

    What's the overall opinion on Lawler as an announcer? I really couldn't get used to him once he replaced Heenan as heel announcer, but my opinion started to change once he started to be more of a tweener and gone the route to where he is today.

    Did they call it a hospital when Jerry had his heart attack?

    This is getting to be like Carlin's routine about euphemisms.

    Steve recommended Dusty's book on his Twitter just now, and Dusty said something about Steve on his. I might just have enough patience to hear those two talk if he gets Dusty for an interview.

    Is there a handheld of the one in London, Ontario against Piper where Flair said he was drunk?

    Is it fair to say he could be a lock for the WWE HOF? All signs point to maybe since he had that comeback match last year and a few articles on WWE.com about him.
  9. flyonthewall2983
    Fair enough. Would still like to see him in next year's Rumble though.

    Just had a hell of an idea for an angle, that of course WWE will likely never do. Jake Roberts has said he wants to be an entrant in next year's Royal Rumble, and has been getting in shape for it. If this comes to pass, I'd love to see him return to his feud with Jerry but spin it on it's head with Jake as the heel with subtle reminders and hints of the heart attack as ways of making Jerry more vulnerable and ultimately putting more heat on Jake. There would be a way to do it without them even having to get in the ring I'd think.

    I believe a Kickstarter fund has been started to help bring together a definitive independent JCP doc.

    I can't say I've gone out of my way not to watch any of Chris' stuff, but I can't say that if I had that it bothered me. I'd be more bothered by seeing documentary footage of him with his family, or just speaking as himself. Getting back to the Cable coverage this got, I remember distinctly how impressed I was with John Cena when he was on Larry King. It was right then and there I knew he would be someone WWE should consider invaluable to them when it comes to that kind of stuff. He toed the company line yes, but he was classy and considerate with his answers. Showed more restraint than Vince ever has in those kinds of situations.

    To be fair, he does look a lot like Shane.

    Maybe it's because I'm so used to listening to people like Maron, Jay Mohr and a few others, but I can't really get into Austin as a host. Can't explain why.

    Rather tame compared to some women I know of here who make a living out of it, without sex which is probably the trade-off.
  16. flyonthewall2983
    My guess is that Vince wanted right away to claim this as a personal victory over Turner, getting arguably the biggest wrestling name on his network. And maybe Flair wanted to for similar reasons against Herd.

    Weird considering how the ECW locker room found out he was working for WWF.
  19. flyonthewall2983
    I shudder to think how trashy they could have really made it then.

    Was?

    Dustin's a bit of a sad case, although not entirely because he seems to be in a pretty good position now (he still works for WWE, right?). If WCW had stuck to raising the level of the talent they already had instead of giving all those opportunities to Hogan and the older guys, I'm positive Dustin could have been a top guy in the company. Or at least he could have risen above the stigma of being a legend's son.
  23. flyonthewall2983
    I think so.
  24. flyonthewall2983
    I'm guessing she's no Charles Kuralt.
  25. flyonthewall2983
    It makes a little sense. Jake had just come off a four-year run as one of their top faces, and Randy was one of the top heels for a few years. If it had been done with a more established heel and babyface it would have sold huge on the house shows.
