Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard
flyonthewall2983 replied to Lust Hogan's topic in Publications and Podcasts
This week's episode of The Ric Flair Show is essentially an extra episode of Something to Love, as Ric wasn't able to record and Bruce fills in, talking to Conrad about Flair's run with the WWF. -
Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard
flyonthewall2983 replied to Lust Hogan's topic in Publications and Podcasts
The Pillman episode had a couple things I didn't know before, like the big TV conference in Las Vegas both WCW and WWF had representatives at where Pillman went over to the WWF spot and hung out for a bit. Vader is the topic for this coming Friday's episode, somewhat timely given the recent news he's given about his health. -
[1997-10-06-WWF-Raw] Interview: Melanie Pillman
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in October 1997
Listening to the recent episode of the Bruce Prichard show about Pillman's time in the WWF, and I gather that there was somewhat of a good reason for doing this. I guess she was being bombarded by requests for interviews from other media outlets but gave it to Vince because she knew he'd pay her back for it. Still doesn't make it any less disgusting on Vince's part, he could have given her a couple weeks to grieve to do it at least. -

Greatest finish ever -
Oh dear I hope he gets his stuff in order, and that he is in top consideration for the WWE Hall of Fame's class of 2017. I hope it's something that can be resolved for his and his family's sake.

Wrestling in unusual contexts

In David Lynch's Mulholland Drive, you can see someone wrote "WWF" in graffiti during a scene early on. -

Next episode will be about Pillman in the WWF, centered around the gun incident. -
Wondering if Vince will be a guest at the White House now

There's one from Jim Ross at the Royal Rumble '97 that I remember from watching it live and watching it today I still get a kick out of it, after Lawler asks him if he takes pleasure in the misfortunes of others: "Selectively, yes".

The barbs thrown in this election makes that Mike Love speech I posted on the first page sound like Gordon Solie. -

Is TNA the worst wrestling promotion in history?
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in Megathread archive
WWE doing anything with TNA's library seems strange to me. It's mostly because they never recognized them as competition unlike they did for WCW. With the exception of people like Samoa Joe, Styles and others who weren't in WWE before, it would feel as if every Hollywood studio started buying up DVD rights to all the Bollywood versions of their movies and put them out in North America, with regard to WWE trying to market that library to their audience that wouldn't have been otherwise familiar or would have cared about TNA. -

The Monday-morning quarterback in me thinks Vince must have watched Live Aid and got the inspiration for it from that. Vince does have these big ideas, but if you scratch the surface a little it seems like it's always borrowed from something else. I think it's why they still celebrate the Attitude Era, because for once they were a little ahead of the curve in terms of pop culture. -

What was Prichard's previous podcast like? Is it still out there? -
I hope they do a full doc on Bruno someday.

Again, I was at this show and I remember being out near the concession stands, and when the NWO music hit, people were rushing back inside. I've not seen that before or since at a show.

Raw v Smackdown Survivor Series match
flyonthewall2983 replied to BigBadMick's topic in Pro Wrestling
They have those every year. He could mean a card with all or mostly Survivor Series matches. -
In my mind, probably the best Survivor Series match ever. You have a lot of tag teams who for that time that defined in the late 80's, not just the WWF, but the AWA and Crockett as well. It's about everything you'd ever want from a tag team match multiplied by 5.

Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard
flyonthewall2983 replied to Lust Hogan's topic in Publications and Podcasts
It also explained the origins of Sean Mooney, so I know that must have pleased you Jerry. I liked it a lot, but wasn't bowled over by it entirely. I was interested in how they initially developed Raw as a show done in their studios before going to the Manhattan center. Hopefully this is discussed more in a later episode. It's looking like the next episode will be about Bruce's time in TNA. -
Raw v Smackdown Survivor Series match
flyonthewall2983 replied to BigBadMick's topic in Pro Wrestling
I'm actually going to watch the show, despite not watching anything else since WM. I'm just glad they brought back the old-school format.
