Rabbit season.

What did he do for them? He's a name I've come across because of the scandals but didn't know (or just overlooked) he was any kind of on-air talent.
-
How WCW misused Tenta is pretty sad and typical for a company that had an embarrassment of riches when it came to their roster. Seeing him do the Oddities thing later in WWF felt even worse because they made him a clown.
-
Didn't he try out after AWA went out of business, shortly before WCW picked him up? I haven't listened to the whole interview yet.
-
I didn't bother with it tonight but next week's episode looks good.
-
DDP posted pictures of Chris interviewing him and Jake Roberts for the show. -
Their stock went up today after the news that WWE Films signed a deal with Lionsgate.
-
Steve just tweeted that he's talking to Leon White tomorrow.

Zakk Wylde is an Ultimate Warrior fan. Didn't know that, but not surprised.
-
Am I reading this right, there are two separate firms investigating this?
-
I'm sure we'll see them all go up as before with the Clash shows. I said before I was surprised SNME didn't go up first, but now that I think about it there are a lot more music rights issues with them then there are the COC's (tee-hee).

Caesar & Cleo walking by Randy Savage writhing on the ground is an image that sticks out as an unfortunate simile to his last couple of years in the company.
-
Just how serious is this latest loss going to affect the company?
-
Yep.

How can wrestling appeal to educated people with money?
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in Pro Wrestling
It's impossible because those kinds of things don't get over with crowds who are easily provoked into cheering or booing. Shows like Breaking Bad are best watched by yourself, or at the most a number of your friends and family. -
The incident is thankfully left in uncensored on the Network.

Story-line wise I don't think wrestling could ever be as multi-faceted and interesting as a lot of the really good cable shows. Part of why is timing. Some of the really good shows in the post-Sopranos era have taken their entire arc to build to what we would call the blow-off. Angles generally don't have those kinds of arcs, and if they do they're on shaky ground because any number of things could happen. This other angle could take away all your steam because it has gotten more fan attention, there could be any number of personal or business disputes behind the scenes that puts it all in risk, and to be incredibly timely because of the Daniel Bryan situation, injuries. This isn't in direct relation to the question, but the fans of those shows in general cross a lot of different lines, including income. -
It was the best segue into how he became the voice of the company, because it unwittingly put WWE in the position of suddenly having a three-man team with JR, Lawler and Vince. And once Montreal happened, Vince could never go back to the broadcast booth.

Eyada.

It's official
-
I liked this one too, It seemed to have a natural flow elimination-wise unlike some battle royals where you can tell they were crunched for time and 6-7 guys are thrown out all within 30 seconds to a minute.
-
3 and 4 as well I'd assume.

[1997-10-06-WWF-Raw] Brian Pillman 10-Bell Salute
flyonthewall2983 replied to Loss's topic in October 1997
Did Nitro put up a graphic before their show started that night? I seem to remember learning about his death that way. -
Who else would we be rooting for? USA, who would just use the time with one of their crappy shows or more NCIS reruns? I would like it if the deal was as good for the talent as it will be the McMahons, it does bother me that the Network is affecting their contracts as has been stated.
