  1. The way I recall it, he thought it was Linda's fault that Liz grew to realize there was a life outside basically being kept prisoner by Randy's paranoid side.
  2. So apparently the Raw tag title match is the Revival vs.....Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins? Yup, they uploaded a video to WWE.com showing the challenge being made, and it looks like the story will be having Hawkins's losing streak end at Mania and give Zack another "local boy makes good" Wrestlemania Moment.
  3. Also it's pretty amazing after the last 4-5 years, Roman's Mania match is probably #5 on the card if not lower?
  4. Any time there's an angle involving a car window getting broken, I always low key fear someone's going to Goldberg themselves.
  5. He's been wearing that style of mask since he came back, it's only when he decided to wear Philadelphia Flyers colors that it looked like Sheamus.
  6. Well that managed go to from awesome, to overdone, to silly, to stupid, then all the way back to awesome again by the end.
  7. Good thing Naomi wasn't in this match or this could have become tragic. /s
  8. I'm still expecting a show ending angle with Brock somehow.
  9. Corbin is so great at being a heel, it's a shame he sucks so bad at literally every other aspect of wrestling.
  10. All these years and the Andre statue on the trophy still looks like it's made out of butter.
  11. If BIG DAVE doesn't do the guns in his Mania intro I fucking riot.
  12. Peyton's look of abject fear was outstanding.
  13. I love that they spent the time to build Nia and Tamina as the monsters of the women's division, only to have Beth toss them around since her return.
  14. I have a feeling that this show is going to end with Brock laying out Seth just to add doubt.
  15. It's always a funny thing to see wrestling fans (who normally complain that mainstream media ignores the real issues in wrestling like the independent contractor BS) turn around and attack any mainstream media outlet that dares to bring up the real issues in wrestling.
  16. Just watched the new Dumbo movie (you have to do these things when you have a 7 year old), and the answer to "who would play Vince McMahon in a movie" is without a doubt Michael Keaton. I don't know if he's a wrestling fan, but his character in this movie was so Vince-like it's uncanny.
  17. According to Dave, Taker will be on the next Saudi show.

    It's like finding definitive proof Bigfoot exists. Even if it ends up being a really tall homeless guy or some kind of defomed bear, you finally are able to get resolution of a long standing urban legend. No one was expecting it to be a five star classic, we already knew from what was available that Magee sucked. The appeal was all "Bret is so good he got an acceptable match out of THAT guy". Capcom would have had something to say about that.
  19. Mr. Lethal is probably the only dad in history the "my friend's dad let him do it" actually worked on.
  20. So WWE announced Black and Ricochet will get a tag title match against the Revival on Monday. This is interesting considering they are also getting an NXT tag title match on Takeover for winning the Dusty Classic. Having them win both belts would be weird, but the way both shows are booked having them lose wouldn't make sense either. Nothing says WWE booking more than having them paint themselves in a corner unnecessarily.
  21. Can't blame her for not wanting McDevitt-mania to run wild all over her. Also she doesn't seem to be the tape collector/holy grail fanatic most of us are, so I have no problem cutting her some slack on this.

    She posted a clip on her Twitter because people were apparently still giving her shit about it not being real.
  23. Some context on that: https://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2018/05/17/former-pro-wrestler-beaten-badly-in-front-of-his-home-over-parking-spot/ Basically he got beat up by six dudes over a parking dispute.
  24. Saw that he passed away today, IMO one of the biggest "could have been a huge star" guys of his time. A former Yokozuna, he was a big star in sumo only to get kicked out for attacking the stable boss's wife which ended up being a recurring theme of his (losing jobs due to unprofessional violence). Had a brief run in New Japan where he sold out the Dome, but feuded with the booker and got fired. Tenryu brought him in, but that led to the famous semi-shoot with John Tenta because Kitao didn't want to lose to a guy who was a sumo equivalent to a midcarder. After that he went to UWFI where again there were issues, he didn't want to lose to Takada who ended up legit KO'ing him with a shoot kick. Afer a brief MMA stint he ended up in WAR before retiring. He's probably known best to US fans for the seemingly random tag match with Tenryu against the Smash/Crush version of Demolition at the 1991 Wrestlemania, which was set up due to the SWS/WWF partnership at the time.
