Rumored returns, arrivals, matches, etc..

Andre being touted to return at the '91 Royal Rumble. Would have been very interesting to see him in the same ring with the likes of The Undertaker and LOD. -
When was Ric Flair at his most evil?

Of course he would know. -

In retrospect, it would have been awesome if Randy Savage came back to WWE after Halloween Havoc '96, and returned as a heel. I can see it now, how he makes his big come back segment. The crowd is going wild, and Vince is standing in the ring smiling like an idiot at his classic posing from the second turnbuckle, the waving of the finger. They shoot the shit for a few minutes about how good it is to be back, and out of nowhere Vince blurts out "Nacho Man", likely a mistake on his part. But Randy capitalizes on it saying he was going to let it go and "what it is is what it is", but no. He talks about being benched all those years he could have been on top, being a sidekick to Vince in the broadcast booth instead. This inevitably leads to a contempt of the fans which causes some boos, and ultimately a physical beatdown on McMahon until Shawn Michaels makes the save. -
The brief "gimp-mask" period didn't help much either. You can't make me.

WWE Network finally happening

Sounds like the shows Oz Clarke and James May did for BBC, going across Britain (and in one case, California) to find the drink that defines Great Britain. -
Keith wrote a pretty nasty (most of it I agreed with, even then) article about Vince when the XFL started, I remember.

I was going through some YouTube stuff today and saw Terry Taylor in a ref's shirt in a video from Halloween Havoc '93. Was he just a ref during this stint in WCW or did he do it other times as well?

It was around this period I was becoming a big Flair mark (which never stopped, for the most part). Never would have happened, but I think it would have been cool to have Flair as the NWO benefactor character that Bischoff eventually became (and for a short while was thought to be Ted Dibiase). -

I saw this a few years ago, and I was surprised to find it a better match than WrestleMania VIII.- 10 replies

Flair said in his shoot he got the offer from Watts to come back in November and took it immediately and told Vince about it. It's interesting in that he also said Vince wanted him to feud and ultimately job to Razor Ramon, in that Vince saw the potential of Hall as a face rather quickly.

Give it a few years, and I would not be surprised if it happens.

The JBL bit is interesting, in that you could utterly believe that it's a shoot and he's that xenophobic. In the Ken Kennedy shoot, he talks about a show they did practically on the Texas/Mexico border and John was doing a lot of anti-immigrant stuff and that backstage Eddie Guerrero was extremely pissed at him about it.

It wasn't really an angle, just a kind of a run-in thing if I remember correctly.

The last thing I remember them doing was some angle with Pillman when he first arrived.

God, it's as if the company has been taking steroids since it seems they don't have balls to do anything. -

Linda McMahon for Senate catch-all thread

It'll be an actual channel, not an On Demand service. -

Bottom line with me, if they stick to the model of those two channels, they'll do fine. If they stray into non-wrestling programming, I think that's where it will have trouble.
