WWE Network finally happening
flyonthewall2983 replied to flyonthewall2983's topic in Megathread archive
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?

When was Ric Flair at his most evil?
flyonthewall2983 replied to JerryvonKramer's topic in Pro Wrestling
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). -
[1995-06-18-WCW-Great American Bash] Ric Flair vs Randy Savage
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in June 1995
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.

I'm clearly a tourist here compared to you guys :/

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. -

Does this mean the On Demand service stays? -

I guess this means Mania stays on PPV. -
Linda McMahon for Senate catch-all thread
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in Megathread archive
He probably takes his frustration out on the golf course. -

I'm hoping for a long, Vader-esque title reign right through WM. -

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

flyonthewall2983 replied to flyonthewall2983's topic in Megathread archive
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. -
Jake getting bit by the snake was an apt finish for this period of his career. And Sting swinging around the pole was pretty awesome. If there's a gif of that somewhere, I'd love to see it.

[1992-10-12-WWF-Saskatoon, SAS] Ric Flair vs Bret Hart
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in October 1992
But they did have one go for 75, right? Or am I just making this up? -
WWE Network finally happening
flyonthewall2983 replied to flyonthewall2983's topic in Megathread archive
They're probably in a better position now, as opposed to ten years ago, considering there's a more vast library of material they now own. Dipping their toes in the water with the On Demand service and the internet archive wasn't a bad idea either. My hope is that it's a premium channel, without commercial interruption. Otherwise, things like the PPV's would take up a huge chunk of the schedule. -
I take it everyone's seen the clip on RAW. I'm excited about the prospect, but a little skeptical as well. Thoughts?
