Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard
flyonthewall2983 replied to Lust Hogan's topic in Publications and Podcasts
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. -
Kevin Pollak said the perfect thing about Twitter as far as being a celebrity, that basically you can take in all these accolades from fans at a safe enough distance, and when someone hates on you you can either block them or RT to your fans who will proceed to pounce on said hater. I don't know how far the medium should be pushed if we're talking about getting heat and such. Especially in such a tense environment as this anyway (and WWE for the time being has made no endorsements of Trump, though you know Vince is probably dying too).

Jesse could have known the direction Slaughter was going in while he was still with the company, and suggested it just before he was gone. This was during a time when they planned things way in advance, so it could have played out that way. -

I was/am not a huge ECW fan but I found the trolling a little annoying, because WWE still uses "bingo halls" as code for indie wrestling. -
Jesse Ventura just tweeted a picture of him and Steve talking.

Friday's episode will be about Prime Time -
I wonder why he didn't vouch for the Bulldogs getting in.

Bret Hart knocked the Freebirds' induction, saying they never did anything in WWE... I'll give him credit for saying guys like Rude, Demolition and the Rougeaus should be in but he obviously either doesn't get or doesn't care for the fact that it inducts people for their work outside Vince's employment.
-
I wouldn't be surprised if it's just people within the McMahon's inner circle that votes on who gets in or not. Not even in-ring talent.

I think classic content will always keep being added. They seem to be wishy-washy about it but they'll come around eventually. I really wish, with regards to the classic stuff, that what they had done from the beginning was just add stuff incrementally every week or every two weeks instead of just throwing it on whenever.
-
Those are reasonable options. Make the free version just a stream of the live network, 4.99 for limited access to the On-Demand content, 9.99 for everything, and 14.99 for the HOF vote. Though I would never take the HOF option, it would be a wasted vote and a waste of money.

All I have to say is this, 5 pages and no mention of Pink Floyd?

Liz was beautiful but I think the projection of innocence Vince and Gorilla always put on her meant sex appeal would be put aside. Which is fine, again considering the company was trying to be more wholesome family entertainment. But for me at least, that translated into her WCW run too.

[1990-12-28-WWF-MSG, NY] Roddy Piper vs Mr Perfect
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
It's mentioned in the new book written by his son and daughter that he worked Curt when he came back to Oregon to marry his wife in 1982. No idea if it was televised or not.- 18 replies

Shoots Review and Preview thread
flyonthewall2983 replied to BruiserBrody's topic in Megathread archive
I wouldn't be surprised if they do more stuff with Tod, it's getting a lot of strong feedback on Twitter so he'll probably be back for more. -
You have to give credit to Sherri for how she used her sex appeal as part of her gimmick when she was with Savage, Dibiase and Michaels. She wasn't just using it for the leering men (and boys apparently) but I'm sure the thought crossed her mind that it was also bordering on offensive to the more prudish fans. It probably would have been cheap heat anywhere else, but in the largely family-friendly WWF it must have felt subversive.

Is there any footage of their match in Portland in the early 80's?- 18 replies

Ugh. This Halle Berry story is pretty atrocious, even if it's true. ESPN unveiled their latest slate of 30 For 30's, and Nature Boy was not among them which makes me think the network is having cold feet after Ric's foot found it's way into his mouth again.
