I'm guessing she's no Charles Kuralt.

[1991-11-23-WWF-Superstars] Randy Savage and Jake Roberts
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in November 1991
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.- 24 replies

It's a shame Jake left when he did because I'm sure they could have continued at this pace once Randy was champion.- 24 replies

[1991-11-30-WWF-MSG, NY] The Rockers vs Nasty Boys
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in November 1991
What happened to the Rockers that summer? They didn't work that year's SummerSlam and I don't think they are anywhere on this Yearbook during that time. -
Because honestly, who here hasn't had their workspace put through the bull-in-a-chinashop deal?

Pain & Gain might be Dwayne's best performance. He shows a vulnerability underneath his huge frame that never wavers, even when it leads to violence. I was really hoping it was good from the trailers, and it exceeded expectations a little.

Actually, Warner Bros. is financing PTA's next picture.

I remember it breaking because of an article in Sports Illustrated. It was mostly in the Sports pages of newspapers and some talk shows. Vince and Bruno were both on Larry King in the spring of '92.

A bit of both maybe. And it was a nice excuse to have the same matches over and over with heels he'd worked with before. I think besides Morrus, he'd worked angles with everyone in the group. -

Was the steroid scandal stuff news at all in the UK then?

I think it's good. Wonder if they'd ever try and do something like that again.

Shoots Review and Preview thread

That guy also did the Bundy shoot, which was pretty good but that's all Bundy. He steered the direction of the conversation in some interesting places. -
New Truly Independent ECW Documentary

Wrestling With Shadows was on A&E. -
Haku stayed in pretty much the same shape (despite getting a little thicker), while Ray got thinner (and better) in the early 90's. That doesn't have much bearing on your question. Haku couldn't cut a promo and Bossman never struck me as someone who could be as bad-ass as Haku, so it's split down the middle for me.

[1990-04-01-WWF-Wrestlemania VI] Hulk Hogan vs Ultimate Warrior
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in April 1990
I like how Jesse shifted to being neutral (even going as far to say that "Hulkamania will live forever", which is pretty uncharacteristic otherwise). I liked him better in WCW for this reason. He seemed more left-of-center than totally heel, which worked well with what WCW was doing. -

The stir on Twitter would indicate door number two. -
Big Show's been in some boring angles/matches, but it doesn't take away from how much of a success story he's been and certainly a future legend.

I didn't watch it but it caused a bit of a stir on Twitter. -

I thought them getting Davey Boy back was an attempt to get more Hart family members on Vince's side after Owen's death. -
[1991-08-26-WWF-Summerslam] A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN

I like that the reception is taken out of the DVD version. Kind of a bland and over-acted skit to start an otherwise intense and good rivalry.- 11 replies

[1991-10-12-WWF-Superstars] Interview: Ric Flair
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in October 1991
The thing that hurt the Flair/Heenan dynamic was that Bobby (aside from those house shows against Hogan) basically managed from behind the booth and would do interviews like this. It had it's good (Bobby at the Royal Rumble) to it, but it would get grating at times to hear him be a cheerleader behind the booth. -
When did you read this, what year was given on Ted Turner's possible retirement, and when did he actually retire? It was in the news for a little while in the early 2000's, definitely pre 9/11 and I think while WCW was still in business. Wiki said he resigned from Time Warner as vice chairman in 2003 and from the board of directors a few years later.
