It's as old as wrestling itself: it's when they mix drugs that the problems start. Punk was using lavender to get to sleep, then a skinny caramel moccachino walnut latte to wake up. It's how we lost Gino Hernandez.

Alex Watson aka the Cappucino Kid, was disqualified in the 1988 Olympic pentathlon for excessive levels of caffeine. Caffeine is a hell of a drug. It will strip you of everything.

Re: "the wrong people won the Owen". Martha Hart, whose imprimatur was essential for the tournament, seemed pretty happy to crown Britt and Cole.

Point is, Punk is as much of a junkie as the people he claims to be holier than. And I need to work on my analogies...

Yep. Speed is an "upper", a stimulant. Caffeine is an "upper", a stimulant. They're in the same family. Failing to see any similarities makes me ask, "seriously?". Or are you saying caffeine is NOT a drug of dependance, and NOT a mood and mind altering drug? You guys have got to stop taking me literally . It's wrestling, I use hyperbole and emotion. But caffeine is very much analagous to speed.

"I've never taken drugs"? Fuck off Punk. You're a caffeine addict, and therefore a speedhead.

Whatever, indeed. You know sumos don't train or fight with a full stomach, don't you? Because a blow to a full stomach can be deadly? Why have that in place if there's no blows to the stomach (rhetorical, but I can't see you taking it rhetorically ). Again thanks to all for your efforts in educating me, but I'm never buying Little Beaver splashing King Kong Bundy as a finisher. Apparently I'm on an island, and that's ok.

Oh for goodness' sake, brother El-P. There's no stomach-on-stomach contact in sumo? That's such a piss-poor take, even for a pro-wrestling fan. When? When you mocked the very notion of, say, a Brock Lesnar squatting more than a Zach Gowan ("pro-wrestling fans still believe that being big/tall/fat makes you ...stronger than smaller people") Where? About five posts up.

Fun fact #2: Sumo wrestlers bang their 400lb stomachs against other 400lb stomachs and don't then lie prone for 3 seconds+. Fun fact #3: pro-wrestling fan still believes that being big/tall/fat makes you weaker than smaller people...

Not if you've got a mattress and six pillows for a midriff ala Doudrop...

I appreciate your efforts in explaining why Little Beaver Alexa splashing Bundy Doudrop works. But, no. Just no. Never. She wasn't. One was enough. A feather falls at the same speed as a brick. The brick hurts; the feather doesn't. I think this was the most tongue-in-cheek reply, but I'll address it anyway. "In general, a person falling through the air on Earth reaches terminal velocity after about 12 seconds, which covers about 450 meters or 1500 feet." Being smaller, it would still take Little Beaver Alexa 10 seconds and 1200 feet.

And again, why is a 78lb woman using a splash as a finisher (on a 200lb woman, no less)? It doesn't work when Little Beaver is splashing King Kong Bundy....

Alexa selling a corner splash by doing a forward roll was....a choice.

"Straight Edge" my Aunt Fanny's fanny. Motherfucker drinks coffee, a mood-and-mind-altering drug of dependence

One could argue that Hulk Hogan only had big matches.

"‘It’s not about what the people like!" being used out of context on the webs in 5....4....3....

They had me until "Every single one of us is pulling our hair out”. Not one happy person in AEW, hey?

I always heard it was Paul Diamond. Then I think I heard it wasn't Paul Diamond. Either way, he's the only other name I've seen bandied about.

The average IQ is 100. There's no way the total IQ of that card of twenty-one wrestlers is anywhere near 2100.

I'm thinking Sasha might be what us old-timers call a "bad influence". Naomi's put up with far worse treatment over the last decade, but now she decides to throw it all away? Over this? Then there's the apocryphal Sasha and Bayley story.

I see Lacey raided Lita's wardrobe.

The great thing about guys like Bruno is that he has "less" than any wrestler in going around in 2022 (I mean, I've seen first-time rookies in the opening match battle royal, try more "stuff"; and there's no way Bruno gets a look-in in NXT 2.0). But he does so much more. So much.

Meltzer says the rumoured Flair match (he's been training and bumping with Jay Lethal) is FTR/Flair vs RnRs/TBA. “I don’t know more details. He [Flair] told me it was a secret” said Dave "The Vault" Meltzer.

I didn't know you were so tall, bubba KawadaSmile. But you've sure got his mannerisms down!
