I'm guessing it'll be hanging over the lighting rig above the ring. I'm hoping they'll go old school and construct it before the match (ostensibly while something else is going on, musical act or something). I'm going to be there and without giving too much away, I think I might be coming back with quite a story to tell...

Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 3
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in Megathread archive
I haven't seen it, but that's my guess. And as far as I'm concerned, they needed to. You can't have that stuff entwined with an angle as big as the one he's been having with Rock. From the sound of it, it sounds pretty tame compared to some of the things aimed at women during the Attitude era, which went far enough to make me beyond uneasy. Unless this becomes part of the shtick, I don't see getting too riled up about it. I just don't like the possibility that they are doing this to appease the "Cena Sucks" assholes. Unless...this is the subtle beginning of a heel turn. -

That PBS special on Clinton I DVR'd better be a damned sight better than this -

Of all the fates that karma could bring upon him, that would be pretty weak. Nothing less than something out of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo would come pretty close. -

He looks better bald, but I prefer the earlier version. -

Royal Rumble, MITB, EC "Elevation" debate
flyonthewall2983 replied to NintendoLogic's topic in Pro Wrestling
I didn't mind them using 40 guys last year, but I agree it's good they've gone back to 30. It's the one WWE match I can watch with some of the awe and wonder I had as a little mark. Kofi doing handstands was a genuine mark-out moment for me. -
Royal Rumble, MITB, EC "Elevation" debate

This year it looks like it's setting the "c" main event. -
I could be out of turn on this but Bagwell's a guy WWE could have picked up in the mid-90's, and probably would have had a good run, maybe even working to this day with them (maybe). But from the first time I saw him on Raw during the Invasion angle, I knew he'd be gone as soon as the next commercial break ended. He struck me as having a really swollen head from the push he'd gotten once he joined the NWO. I've said this before, but my theory is that if WWE was Prohibition during the steroid controversies of the 90's, WCW must have been the equivalent of the swankiest speakeasy in the South. They would never have as thorough a drug policy, because all one had to do is point out how much drug abuse was possibly going on in the Atlanta Falcons, Braves, and their NBA team. Add that to the massive paychecks and easier schedules, it's a wonder more people didn't defect.

People who chant Cena sucks are just Austin marks who wishes he drank beer and cursed more often. -

Is it bad that I'm just happy Vince Russo might be out of a job? -
He gave us possibly the greatest heel turn ever and the greatest "fuck you" to the fans ever with that promo. All in the same night.

That it is. And just for the sake of building up Miami, I hope Cena destroys Kane. -
I've only seen pictures, but is there any Flair/Andre matches on tape?

I liked that feud as something to keep the fans from scratching their heads wondering why he wasn't the champ at this point. And for a big guy, Tenta could cut a good promo that made you believe he would send you to the hospital or worse. It wasn't anything original as they'd done the David/Goliath thing with Bundy and Andre before, but this was the first time they'd taken him out of action because of the program, and that raised the stakes higher for that SummerSlam match. It's what I honestly wish they would have done with Cena during the Nexus angle where he was "fired". Keep him away for several months and build up to the big fight at WM.

WWE Network finally happening

I wish I could re-name the subtitle to the thread "2012-ish" -
Oh yeah, that's where he came in through the door instead of the garage. Very cute.

That would have been awesome for that year's Survivor Series, ending the series at MSG.- 22 replies

I hated that Vader was canned right around this time. Him having programs with the likes of Tenta, Haku and a young Paul Wight would have been amazing.

Makes sense, although a longer-term Davey/Lex feud would have had some great potential, and could have revitalized Lex's stock with the company.- 22 replies

Okay, so was there a tease to a Luger/Davey Boy feud as a result? I gotta admit I tuned out of WWF programming around this time and wasn't aware of the particulars. Also, did Davey's haircut come later?- 22 replies
