WWE released the rules for the Wargames match at the next Takeover: The three-member teams of SAnitY (Eric Young, Alexander Wolfe & Killian Dain), Undisputed ERA (Adam Cole, Bobby Fish & Kyle O’Reilly), and The Authors of Pain (Akam & Rezar) & Roderick Strong will wage war inside a massive steel cage that surrounds TWO rings. All three teams will be contained inside separate shark cages by the entranceway, with a member from each team (as chosen by his respective squad) starting the match. After five minutes, the remaining members from one team will be released from their shark cage and allowed to enter the match. When another three-minute period elapses, the remaining members from a second team are released from their shark cage and enter the match. Following another three-minute period, the final team’s members are released from their shark cage and enter the match. Once all three teams have entered the WarGames Match, a victory can be attained via pinfall or submission.

Wrestlers or Acts You Hated But Turned The Corner On
Flyin' Brian replied to JaymeFuture's topic in Pro Wrestling
HBK Shawn Michaels. Loved the Rockers, but never took to HBK in singles until after he came back from retirement in 2002. Then I grew to appreciate him. -
That was embarrassing to watch, his promo had no flow or life to it just spewing a bunch of clichés "each and every one of you" really? Also does he have an illness or problem with his voice or has it been that long since I last heard him speak? For your sanity do not go to the comments of that video. I believe he has a lisp that sometimes shows up in his speaking. https://mobile.twitter.com/codyrhodes/status/804489475082645504?lang=en

It wasn't great, it wasn't good, but I had fun watching the main event.

[1985-12-07-WWF-Philadelphia, PA] Hulk Hogan vs Terry Funk
Flyin' Brian replied to Superstar Sleeze's topic in December 1985
Have to check this out. Hogan and Funk fought on the 1/4/86 Saturday Night's Main Event (Taped 12/19/85) in Tampa, FL, and on the 5/3/86 SNME (Taped 5/1/86 in Providence, RI) Hogan teamed with Junkyard Dog against Terry and Hoss (Dory Funk Jr.) Funk are the only Hogan/Funk matches I've seen. -
I watched this match live on PPV and bought the tape years later and watched it again. I was dumbfounded both times. It made no sense and it still makes no sense. What were they thinking?

I still mark out for that suplex spot to this day. One of the most memorable matches from my childhood. I think it still holds up well.

Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 4
Flyin' Brian replied to TravJ1979's topic in Pro Wrestling
I've really wanted to try it. From what I had seen before it looked like the results were real. Did you get a call from DDP yet? -
As far as the Clash VHS tapes, only 1-5 were released in the U.S. to my knowledge, and they are actually pretty rare. A compilation tape of Clash 23 and 24 was released in Japan. Not sure about any others.

Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 4
Flyin' Brian replied to TravJ1979's topic in Pro Wrestling
He didn't just "appear in a picture on instagram" he went outside and took a picture with the group of people who were there to disrupt his employer's wrestling event and then posted the picture on his own instagram account with the hashtag #BCInvasion beside it. He had to know what he was doing was something his bosses wouldn't want him to do which is made even more evident by the fact that there are tons of people in the locker room who are friends with Cody/The Young Bucks that didn't go even go outside to speak to them much less take pictures and post them on social media. So kind of like if Scott Hall and Kevin Nash had went outside to take pictures with DX when they invaded WCW? -
Best of Continental - help sought from the experts
Flyin' Brian replied to thebrainfollower's topic in Pro Wrestling
Goc would be a go to guy on this. He has a lot of footage on his YouTube channel and had a thread exploring Continental. -
When "Over"Booking is Just Good Booking
Flyin' Brian replied to Superstar Sleeze's topic in Pro Wrestling
Yeah, loved the Flock. One of the best, which I always use as an instance of workers working a match in front of a crowd that couldn't give less of a fuck and by the end had the same crowd molten, is Raven vs Saturn from (I believe) WWIII 98, for the freedom of the Flock. Terrific match and amazing dog & pony show, with the classic spot of Kidman dropkicking Raven which made him an immediate babyface cruiserweight star. Love that storyline and that match. Good stuff. -
Best manager ever IMO. One of the all time greats.

Awesome! Thanks, Al.

What's left? Portland? Southeast/Continental? Memphis if anyone can sort out the rights mess?

Gordon Solie's Championship Wrestling Trivia
Flyin' Brian replied to Flyin' Brian's topic in Pro Wrestling
There are four categories - wrestling history, general wrestling knowledge, wrestling of the 80's, and true or false/fill in. Here's an example of the first card: History - who was the PWI magazine's Most Popular Wrestler in 1976? General - which wrestler was known as the Canadian Freight Train? 80's - this former Midwest wrestling promoter grappled under the nickname "Cowboy" Name him. T/F or fill in the blank - _______ Sammartino -
My brother found a copy of this game and gave it to me for my birthday. Anyone want to play? Lol https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http%3A%2F%2Fi.ebayimg.com%2Fimages%2Fi%2F350338314268-0-1%2Fs-l1000.jpg&imgrefurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FGordon-Solie-WWF-Wrestling-Championship-Trivia-Game-%2F350338314268&docid=hP1ymvujOOw0KM&tbnid=-lTN_VczF5t2AM%3A&vet=10ahUKEwikic3UrpXVAhWr1IMKHd-sCRIQMwgyKAAwAA..i&w=600&h=603&hl=en-us&safe=off&client=safari&bih=331&biw=347&q=gordon%20solies%20championship%20wrestling%20trivia&ved=0ahUKEwikic3UrpXVAhWr1IMKHd-sCRIQMwgyKAAwAA&iact=mrc&uact=8

Thank you for acquiring the footage and going through the process of converting it into a format that could be shared with all of us. It is a piece of history we didn't have before and I'm thankful it's been preserved. I hope Billy Corgan will continue what you started.

I thought the announce team was ok last night, and I definitely got an early ROH vibe from the stuff I saw. I'll probably try and check out some of the other shows they had posted on twitch.
