Cappetta was an easy target because of his nerdy demeanor. Back in the early 90s me and my friends used to razz the announcer for our local promotion mostly because he was nerdy, which of course is hilarious because we were the dorks going to wrestling shows when it was pretty uncool

Thanks dude

5/17/80 ep includes the legendary Bob Backlund vs El Olympico "exhibition match" we reviewed on Titans years ago. Everyone needs to see this

Sean suggested a thread so here you go. Drop day is Monday. Let's talk some WWWF!

"Tonight's final bout is for the Intercontinental heavyweight championship, scheduled for one fall or to curfew"

That is indeed great

I think with all the potential benefits of network exposure they would find a way to make it work as a two hour show. (I guess I'm totally out of touch, because this is the first I've seen anyone actually say three hours is ideal)

This interests me too. A lot of chatter about WWE on Fox in 2019 lately. This obviously would be huge if it were to happen. Any thoughts from those out there with more insight than myself on TV dealings and such? The future of WWE fascinates me, either with something like this happening or it being bought by a major conglomerate, or both

😆

Just binged the first round. Great stuff. Braun and Alexa are a perfect fit

Who wants to play Parv?

Legit LOL when Mauro wished Gargano "the best of luck in his future endeavours"

What planet are you from? Oh, Japan. Never mind

It all turned out fine last night and it was great, but there was that brief moment when she first started talking where she was nervous as fuck and I thought the crowd was going to turn on her hard

You're just begging for jdw to make a comeback

Yeah, keep her talking to a minimum and she'll be fine

Live TV

H needs to grow some hair back

Can't stand the constant sniping at each other by the commentary team. Awful

Nia vs Asuka was fantastic!

Great match. Everyone got to shine
