Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 4
Sidebottom replied to TravJ1979's topic in Pro Wrestling
Was a fun match too. Sabu had some of his last great moments 2005 - 2006. -
I love the DSOTR series as a whole but this season peaked with its first episode thus far. The garbage match one was just a turn off, I just don't like seeing that sort of thing. The Warrior episode was what it was. The Korea episode was somewhat of a non episode. Due to the subject matter I dare say the Jake Roberts episode will be something I'm not keen on viewing.

Not feeling the love other people are for these two hype videos (more power to the ones loving them). They feel generic to me; the sort of thing TNA was cranking out when Bobby Roode was sitting by ponds etc. I was expecting something earth shattering after seeing much hype from notable people.

Lesser known or remembered wrestling matches that turned into shoots
Sidebottom replied to SPS's topic in Pro Wrestling
He talks about the this and the tag match in the Nine Legends documentary (www.ninelegendsfilm.com) -
Written a few years ago and well worth a read: http://www.ninelegendsfilm.com/2016/03/dynamite-kid-article/

If Michales were to return for a random match is Saudi, I think it's worth asking the question: will they throw enough money to get Wrestlemania one year?

Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard
Sidebottom replied to Lust Hogan's topic in Publications and Podcasts
I'm interested to see what the Network show will be about, and what the relationship with the WWE will mean for the content output of the original show. -

Sidebottom replied to TravJ1979's topic in Pro Wrestling
Have been wanting to check it out, how would you desribe the interviews and their quality? After Bloodstained Memoirs disappointed me I'm always reluctant to drop $$ on these things. Physical quality wise? Literal worlds apart from the likes of Kayfabe Commentaries, Highspots etc. Pretty sure I did a review of the content itself at the time, the Dynamite Kid interview was excellent. Haven't seen the new Piper footage. -

ECW Haloween Hell where Shane Douglas dressed as Dean Douglas

All this talk of Rotten Tomatoes. Technically wouldn't he be closer to Harry Knowles?

Warrior didn't like him and said he was a trouble maker. I know someone's gonna say "but it's the Ultimate Warrior", but I think the Warrior is a lot smarter than what people give him credit for. He got in, got big, stood up to Vince, got out of wrestling and got Vince to praise him in the end. Not to derail this thread: but if Warrior was the great business man people make him out to be, he wouldn't have let millions sit on the table. Great post by Johnny Sorrow on page 3 on meeting Bobby, I love hearing first hand encounters like this when the photo is also shown.

Nice story Matt D, and you shouldn't feel foolish for being a nice person!

They don't cut them from the same mold as Bobby anymore. RIP Brain.

I used to wonder what Norton in early-mid 90's WWF would have looked like. I imagine fun matches with Shawn, Bret, Razor and the likes.

Is TNA the worst wrestling promotion in history?
Sidebottom replied to Loss's topic in Megathread archive
I think post 2010 is when things really fell of a cliff. I stopped watching during the never ending Aces and Eights nonsense. Up until that point, I'd always tune in weekly, even if it were just for background fodder. -
There is still value in a video product for me. There's something about being able to sit down with some snacks and being able to watch something that can't be touched in terms of entertainment.

Starting to enjoy What Happened When as much as this now. The absolute nonsense with the Barbarian impression had me rolling -
In a coma apparently

Hot Stuff for Eddie Gilbert... fit him in name only. It didn't work.

Great quote, Loss.

What was Paige up to before she went on this massive hiatus? Honestly drawing a blank.
