The REAL top 50 OMG moments in WCW History
BigBadMick replied to BigBadMick's topic in Pro Wrestling
I know, but I'd still wager that lots more awful moments are on this list than WWE's. -
Here's the list as presented on the recent dvd - # 50 – Junkyard Brawl • July 11, 1999 # 49 – Canadian Hacksaw • September 17, 2000 # 48 – Warrior • August 17, 1998 # 47 – 49ers Match • October 2, 2000 # 46 – King of the Road • March 19, 1995 # 45 – Russo • April 10, 2000 # 44 – Chucky • October 12, 1998 # 43 – Bad Goldberg? • June 11, 2000 # 42 – La Parka • July 7, 1997 # 41 – Caged Horsemen • September 29, 1985 # 40 – Jericho’s Challenge • November 9, 1998 # 39 – Litigation • July 9, 2000 # 38 – Helicopter • March 16, 1998 # 37 – Forklift Match • August 13, 2000 # 36 – The Debut • September 4, 1995 # 35 – Demolition • September 27, 1999 # 34 – Electric Chair • October 27, 1991 # 33 – Movie Magic • June 1993 # 32 – RoboCop • May 19, 1990 # 31 – Who Better than Kanyon? • May 7, 2000 # 30 – Human Torch • June 11, 2000 # 29 – Ambush • October 25, 1986 # 28 – Russo Wins World Title • September 25, 2000 # 27 – Chest Protector • March 29, 1999 # 26 – Powerbomb • June 16, 1996 # 25 – Finger Poke of Doom • January 4, 1999 # 24 – Cruiserweight Showcase • October 26, 1997 # 23 – n.W…..NO ! • January 13, 1997 # 22 – Lost in Cleveland • April 1993 # 21 – Stir Crazy • April 1999 # 20 – Pinata • November 15, 1999 # 19 – Masked Luchador • May 17, 1998 # 18 – Parking Lot Mess • July 29, 1996 # 17 – Garbage • December 18, 1995 # 16 – To Streak? Or not to Streak? • December 27, 1998 # 15 – Trailblazer • August 2, 1992 # 14 – The Decision • March 16, 1997 # 13 – Piledriver • May 7, 1989 # 12 – The Worm • March 16, 1997 # 11 – Parody • September 1, 1997 # 10 – Shockmaster • August 18, 1993 # 9 – World Champion Actor • April 26, 2000 # 8 – CoboChaos • October 29, 1995 # 7 – Double Feature • November 17, 1997 # 6 – Scaffold • November 27, 1986 # 5 – Goldberg Dome • July 6, 1998 # 4 – “I Quit” • November 28, 1985 # 3 – Outside Invasion • May 27, 1996 # 2 – Surprise Purchase • March 26, 2001 # 1 – Who is the Third Man? • July 7, 1996 It's not an exact number, but I would argue that 21 of those are presented in a positive light and the rest are openly savaged or at the very least smirked at. I've a feeling the WWF/E OMG list had a higher percentage of positive moments. Anyway, I'd like to compile a list of 50 genuinely positive OMG moments from WCW. Beginning from Nov 88 - I know this dvd cheated and went back to 85, but we'd be all day listing everything from NWA days. Suggestions? I'm especially interested in the less discussed 1988-95 period.

Does anybody give a shit about Randy Orton?
BigBadMick replied to Cross Face Chicken Wing's topic in The Microscope
Where does Orton stand on the PWO re-evaluation scale? He's not the outcast that Brody is, surely? -
What's the 7/10 thing?

Great show lads. Epic 1st hour on the 1991 Flair situation. Couple of points - Will, although you kind of drown out Ross and Schiavone on commentary nowadays, how do you rate them both? Parv, I'm not sure what you meant by WWF being in the steriod scandal equates to Flair's value going up? It was well into 92 before the muscleheads really starting disappearing, and apart from that I think Flair was physically impressive enough to be of value to WWF throughout the 80s and on into the 90s, regardless of the steriod controversy. Just wondering what you meant? Will, do you think Windham was old and washed-up in 91, or just that he could be considered a relic of the past compared to Luger and Sting?

Shhhhhhhhiiiiiiittttttttttt..................

Did he drop any falls in All Japan in 87-88?
-
Cool. What about Steve Williams? I remember his ECW title loss at start of 97 beinghis first US pinfall in years.
-
Not sure, just read about it in an Observer.
-
I'd always thought that Piper had a very lengthy no pinfalls policy prior to WM8. I've seen him pinned by Snuka in '85, is that were it began? Or was it more a 'not losing to Hogan' policy? Also, after WM8, he seemed very selective about pinfall loses - are there many examples? Brody - I know he dropped a fall to Abby in World Class in late '87. When was he last pinned prior to that? Steve Williams/Terry Gordy - Did they both refuse to lose in the US because of Japan (the Hansen/Brody excuse)? Did they enjoy lengthy non-pinfall stints in US also? Hogan - Atlas, Andre, Warrior. Is that it from 1981-90? I'm fascinated by how wrestlers could get away with this for so long. I know, it was a different world, wrestlers had more control over their careers etc but still, Jesus! *I include submission losses in all these too.

The Jim Cornette Experience
BigBadMick replied to flyonthewall2983's topic in Publications and Podcasts
That sounds appalling. I never listen to Cornette pre-interview. Nor Jericho, Ross or Austin. Don't want to sound harsh, but I'm not there for their musings on life etc. -
Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 3
BigBadMick replied to Loss's topic in Megathread archive
I know 4 a fact our own Johnny Sorrow informed Parv. He asked if their were any shots of Dibiase in it. Cool. I should probably ask him directly, but isn't he ever tempted to watch Raw or whatever? Do you guys ever bring it up before recording Titans? I respect his conviction, but I'd find it very difficult to seal myself off in a pre-2000 world....... -

Is this the live Mid Atlantic show? No, it's the following week. -

No comments yet about about the lovely 'Forever young' Hogan tribute video on Raw? Did anyone tell Parv? -
List 'Em and Learn Episode 4 with guests Alan4L and Joe Gagne

Oh, any chance of doing the same for the '00s? -
List 'Em and Learn Episode 4 with guests Alan4L and Joe Gagne
BigBadMick replied to MFoy's topic in Publications and Podcasts
Enjoyed this one lads - really good topic. Although 1999 WWF is the redheaded stepchild round here, and I'm not calling these top 10 at all, might I be so bold as to suggest Rock/Mankind at Valentine's Day Massacre, Austin/Rock at Backlash and surely at least one or two of the 75 Rock/HHH matches during the year as worthy of mention? -
I knew Kubrick started as a photographer and made a short about a boxer but - wow! - cool photos. Imagine if he'd turned his cool hard stare towards wrestling sometime..... Oh well.

Hello? Anybody...... (tumbleweed)

I think it's hilarious he's been going for a few months and nobody has commented yet. I haven't listened to any. Has anyone else? Any recommendations?

The Jim Ross Is A Grouchy Hateful Vile Human Being thread
BigBadMick replied to Loss's topic in Megathread archive
You clearly haven't heard too much of Colt then. Why's that? I've listened to him quite a bit, thought he was fairly upbeat most of the time..... -
In the same boat. I can 'do' Raw in 45 minutes or so. I'm far more interested in the wealth of podcasts out there. That Dylan is one busy boy...

.....that is, of course, if no one has the balls to point this flaw out to Cena (which seems apparent). Work around him. -

BigBadMick replied to Loss's topic in Megathread archive
Similarly, you know how everyone hates the amount of spotcalling we see and hear these days? Isn't that at least partly the fault of WWE production? If you know Cena's tendency to talk freely, surely someone in the truck could ease up on the close ups... -
Watched the extras last night. Beth Pheonix tells a story about botching something in OVW and then Paul telling her not to attempt any move in public that she can't hit ten times out of ten. Paul never talked to Sabu, huh?
