Allegedly there's a lot of it, including the only surviving footage of anything that aired on the old DuMont network. The issue as I've always heard is that WWE doesn't deem it broadcast worthy.
-
Has she done anything other than take what appeared to be a very light chokeslam bump? The video I saw doesn't seem to warrant the outrage at all. Now training with Rance? That would warrant some outrage. His continued involvement in wrestling should warrant more outrage IMO. Practically everyone who ever wrestled in Mexico started at a very early age and on much harder rings in most cases. I don't see there being much evidence of bumping being any more or less dangerous at that age than any other.
-
Am I the only one not seeing what the big deal was about that? If we're talking about it being a bad idea for a 12 year old to get into a business as scummy as wrestling, I'd understand. Everyone on wrestling Twitter was rending their garments over her taking a chokeslam and how it was "child abuse" and I thought it was going to be some deathmatch shit, or a "Vader breaking a jobber's back" type bump...only to watch the video and see it was a gentle back bump. She was posting pictures with her "opponent" afterwards saying what a great time it was. I just don't get the outrage that sprung up over it. As big of a fan as she obviously is, I guarantee she's taken worse bumps in her yard.

There's also the weird dynamic where Ric is clearly living vicariously through her and she's stated several times she only got into wrestling because it was Reid's dream and she was fullfilling it for him. Every time I see them together it's like there's an undercurrent of "Dad finally is paying attention to me" to it that makes it uncomfortable.
-
It should be noted that while a Switch version has not specifically been announced, the devs said if the PS4 version sells then they would look into one. The PS4 version came to exist because the Steam version exceeded expectations, so they're not just blowing smoke.
-
Yeah but Cena and Nikki were a real couple, and despite how much was played up for reality TV clearly things went sour between them.
-
Why would Cena team with them? That would be awkward on many levels.
-
The only way would be to run something like Wine or another Windows emulator and run it from there. There probably won't be a direct Mac port since that platform is practically non existent in Japan (same reason there's no Xbox One version either).

I'm always down for a Horsemen beatdown and this was no exception.
-
Watching on DVR and I'm at the Elias/Trish segment. At least they are consistent in how even the women from the past are presented as bigger stars than the current roster,
-
I read that in CM Punk-as-Ryback voice....
-
Oh shit Wagner just issued a mask vs hair challenge.
-
Phantasma looking like he pulled a Kerry Von Erich and accidentally gigged his hand.
-
Park ending up one of the final two would probably help explain why AAA was so adamant the Rush/Park match wouldn't happen.
-
Jarrett beat Wagner for the title when Konnan came out dressed like Parka, this finish played off that down to Wagner doing Konnan's limp-run down the ramp.
-
Some subtext here, the last time Faby lost a hair match she barely got her hair cut and it was a Thing for a while.
-
This is why you watch the Spanish feed, even if you don't speak it.
-
Eye of the Tiger has been Konnan's theme in AAA forever. It doesn't really fit for the main heel group but it's like their equivalent to old man HBK still coming out to Sexy Boy at this point.
-
The show's started if anyone was waiting to jump in (being nearly 45 minutes late to start was very On Brand for AAA).
-
They are doing a lead up show around 6-6:30 EST, the pre show starts around 8 EST, main card at 9 EST, and the main event mask match will start at midnight EST no matter what since it is airing on TV in Mexico at that time. Keep in mind AAA is notorious for not starting on time, so those times are more of a general guideline than anything else.
-
Main card: Psycho Clown vs Hijo del Fantasma vs Pentagon Jr vs LA Park (cage match, last two left have a one on one mask vs mask match) Lady Shani vs Faby Apache (mask vs hair) Jeff Jarrett vs Brian Cage vs Rich Swann vs Fenix (AAA Mega Heavyweight title) La Mascara, Rey Escorpion, Texano Jr vs Joe Lider, Murder Clown, Pagano (street fight) Jack Evans, Juventud Guerrera, Teddy Hart vs Averno, Chessman, Super Fly (lumberjack match) Mamba, Maximo, Pimpinela Escarlata vs Carta Brava Jr, Mocho Cota Jr, Tito Santana (not that one) vs Hijo de LA Park, Puma King, Taurus Aerostar & Drago vs Golden Magic & Laredo Kid vs Bandido & Flamita vs Andrew Everett & DJZ (ladder match for the AAA tag titles) Big Mami & Nino Hamburguesa vs Hijo del Vikino & Vanilla vs Dinastia & Lady Maravilla vs Angelikal & La Hiedra (AAA mixed tag titles) Pre show: Australian Suicide defending the AAA cruiserweight title against mystery opponents not officially named but known to be ACH, Shane Strickland, and Sammy Guevara. Llave a La Gloria match which is where they put the most promising rookies in a spotlight match AAA HOF with Dr. Alfonso Morales and El Apache getting inducted. AAA is showing it live on their Twitch channels, they have separate Spanish and English feeds but you're better off with the Spanish feed unless listening to Vampiro and Matt Striker trying to pop each other all night is your bag.

WWE TV 08/20 - 08/26 THE BIG DOG IS THE UNIVERSAL CHAMPION
sek69 replied to KawadaSmile's topic in WWE
Kinda shocked they didn't just claim his contract was on ice for him not showing up to work. Especially with the UK scene growing like it is. I guess there's limits on WWE's pettiness after all. -
I've softened my stance on that era, I used to hate it immensely. I've grown to appricate it for what it is over time, but on the Network we now have Mid South, WCCW, Mid Atlantic, and WWF all from around the same time in 1982 and the differences are stark.
