JVK, what have you been watching lately? Haven't seen much in these parts. I'm also happy to hear about it here if it moves people away from what happened to this thread.

Love it when a big man takes a suplex. I'm also a big fan of stiff knees to counter a suplex.

Anyone want to talk suplexes?

Last weekend's WXW show. Gresham/Lethal from ROH last weekend. Perhaps some Progress from Mania weekend. Certain choice selections from 1995 courtesy of the Village, and eventually returning to 2000. And NBA Playoffs. So little time.

You are not alone. Coach is much, much easier to tune out.

T-Bone Tazplex. Definitely one of the first that came to mind. He'd also make a mighty compelling case to take that crown. I feel like a Kobashi half-nelson, or Steve Williams backdrop driver -- if we're counting that as a suplex -- would pose strong challenges.

What suplex do people think is most deserving of the military industrial moniker?

Ha I saw that as well, was just greedy and hoping someone may have put it together chronologically.

Anyone have a YT playlist that compiles this and much of what else is available from the era?

They noted that he often drew gates of 20,000 at MSG and said he had more than 200 matches there.

Why because Bruno just died today. That's why people don't like it. I saw that he paid tribute and that's the right thing to have done. A significant news story ? It's a fecking sell out number for msg from over forty years ago. I'm not desperate to be outraged but bringing it up today but now isn't the time or place. Bruno's death is a significant news story. I know that when I'm writing an obituary for a prominent person, which I've done plenty of times, I work extra hard to get the facts right. An obituary is like the final word on someone's life. If anything, I'd argue it's more important to be careful with the details in that context. I know if I were writing Bruno's obituary, I would be happy that Dave, as an authority in the field, clarified this point. Unfortunately many people become vigilantes when armed with a keyboard. Facts are good, especially when relevant and important. It just so happens that the openness with which they're presented these days often allows for and encourages immediate responses without requiring facts or civility. One can argue that Dave's Twitter conduct in general invites this type of nonsense and he may very well bring it upon himself. But that doesn't mean there's any less merit to discussing all aspects of Bruno's career and historical record. Its hardly as though he's harassing the family with these facts.

Looks like I'll have to turn signatures back on

If Bryan can make Cass look serviceable, I'm going to swap his name in for Moses at Passover next year.

Almas! Seriously, are AJ & Bryan going to Raw? This seems absurd.

Someone big has to move to Raw at the end of the show, no? This feels incredibly lopsided.

He was always solid, but when did Joe become arguably the best promo in the company?

Is Raw getting cancelled? Curious how they book the Universal title picture and Backlash with this move.

Where are the spreadsheets?

She is above Ziggler, if that aliviates things. Jinder in his miserable stinking life has never had a match as good as Nattie vs Alicia Fox. This is very true, but also quite the backhanded compliment.

Supposedly Joe was going to use a line similar to that in last week's promo but it was axed.

Drew Mac is that guy who's not at all one of your best friends, but someone you're always glad to hang out with. Dolph is the wife or girlfriend you absolutely cannot stand and the reason you never hang out with Drew.

No joke, while the camera was having a seizure there I first thought McIntyre was Jinder,then was sure it was Bobby Roode. Just a shame he's saddled in this gimmick.

That commercial was so strange. Alexa & Carmella were the only ones who didn't come across as overly awkward.

Well given that AJ Styles is still probably going to RAW it isn't that big of a slam He's WWE champion though. How will they manage that? Could conceivably have Roman win the title in Jedda after moving to Smackdown tomorrow. I know, I know. Or Brock shows up there. What makes less sense to me about an AJ move is that they just turned Nakamura to heat up that feud. It'd seem odd to squash it ahead of the big rematch.

Miz's promo would suggest he's a lock for Smackdown. Onto the next segment, please.
