  1. Scott Hall is another guy who I saw standing next to Kevin Nash for so long I would forget that he was a giant himself.
  2. Maybe if Hogan came our to the instrumental version of the Bonnie Tyler song "Ravishing "
  3. It would have been really cool if for one night Hogan had come out to Eye if the Tiger again.
  4. The Kings of the Black Throne is an awesome entrance. I like how Alex coming out with Penta looks like a Sorceror or Necromancer or something. I liked Jade better with the white hair. A lot of women wrestlers have different color hair, but the white hair really made her stand out. I really want to see what happens with Punk and MJF now.
  5. I'm on board with Bron dropping the straps for his babyface comeback. I hope he has a long reign.
  6. I really think AEW should try to work out a TV deal in Canada for Rampage. I think I checked out the TSN app to watch AEW like once and didnt really like it. And I'm sure they would get more viewers if it was on actual TV.
  7. I would enjoy seeing Dixie Carter show up managing EC3.
  8. I thought with WarGames, NXT was just dropping the tag "Takeover" from their Specials, but I wanted to look up when their next one was, and couldn't find anything. Did NXT cancel having specials completely?
  9. Men on a Mission did the "Whoop There it is" thing earlier in the 90s.
  10. I really liked the Creed brothers match. I'm happy they are continuing in the tournament, although the end of the show seemed like it too obviously hinted at them being the winners, which means they probably aren't going to win. I was hoping to see more of the big Creed brawling with Walter during the last couple minutes, so I hope that's a match we see coming out of this.
  11. Maybe they will bring in Colonel Klink as his manager.
  12. I really liked seeing the ROH invasion segments on this weeks show. That was a lot of fun. And when they showed that backstage segment setting up Ziggy Dice vs Moose later in the show, I was excited that one of the arcade games in the background looked to be WWF Wrestlefest, which was my personal favorite wrestling game I have ever played. And that giant pizza looked awesome. And then they brought in Ian Riccaboni in to call the main event, that was awesome. It was funny though, right before the main event the announcers were on camera talking about Mickie Jame, and they dubbed in audio of Tom talking about the Royal Rumble. The problem was because the announcers were on camera, the audio didnt match their lips, and when the audio stopped the announcers kept talking with no audio on screen. You think the could have also showed shots of the crowd or imposed a Mickie James graphic on top of the screen instead. I am excited to watch Jonathan Gresham wrestle a Pure Rules match next week.
  13. As long as they bring Mauro Ranallo in to do commentary they'll be fine
  14. I bet you a movie about Inoki's life would be amazing.
  15. I tend to fast forward squash matches. I usually DVR wrestling so I can skip the commercials, as nothing too surprising seems to happen any more. I don't watch Dark, and if all wrestling tv was just squash matches I would probably stop watching. Even today with WWE when I had the Network, it felt like the tv except for maybe the week after a PPV was filler and only the PPVs felt worth watching. I can imagine a future where wrestling moves more towards a Lucha Underground style where there are no PPVs and the tv just builds to itself. I do think there should be more short promos from the underneath guys. That is one thing I do miss from old wrestling.
  16. Vince is totally Mr Burns, and Bruce Prichard is Mr Smithers. I can totally imagine Vince saying something like "Bruce, remember that fat man I used to ride to work?" Or singing a Disney song about wearing a gorilla chest.
  17. They showed this on Sportsnet 360 in Canada, the same channel that shows Raw and Smackdown, and I still wasnt interested in watching it. The old vs new thing really didnt seem that interesting.
  18. I liked Andrade's brawling. I'd like to see some more of his out of the ring brawling. Maybe against Moxley or against Proud and Powerful. The weird finish aside, I really enjoyed the main event.
  19. Whenever I hear "Bear Country" the first thing that I think of is the Berenstain Bears children's books. That's where the Berenstain Bears live. I can't be the only guy here for whom that doesn't come immediately to mind.
  20. Where does CM Punk and Eddie Kingston fit on your list? Both are great promos.
  21. I just saw them now, but both the Sheamus/Priest and Styles/Riddle matches were awesome. How often has Styles won matches with that Burning Hammer followed by Styles Clash combo? I didn't think he would be able to beat Riddle, but Riddle could not stand up to that combo.
  22. This match must have gone off the rails if wrestlers start missile dropkicking themselves! Did Ethan Page dropkick himself on that Impact cinematic match where he wrestled himself?
  23. I really liked hearing the crowd booing Cody so hard during his match. If he turns heel and is able to get the fans to boo him so loud during his matches it will make it fun for me to watch him. I love that kayfabe stuff of just having one guy the fans want to win and one guy the fans want to lose.
  24. I realized I want to see the heels win all these matches. Although they don't really treat Britt as a heel anymore other than the fact that she is wrestling a face.
