With the exception of Ikeda and Ishikawa, I don't have any other BattlArts guys on my list, not because i don't enjoy them but because I haven't gone in depth in exploring them as individuals. These quick reviews make me want to seek these guys out the way I did with Buddy Rose and William Regal.

Psychology is subjective and context matters in every situation, so that's a pretty lofty claim that I don't find to be true whatsoever. Let's not continue this. If you don't want it continued, don't bring it up.

What's this all about?

Hang your head in shame.

When the ballots are all submitted, can you provide a list of the guys who ended up as #100 on the ballots? Just curious who people used as their cut off guy.

Good point and the case for Muraco builds. I know it is a year and a half later but disqualifying the message based on the messenger. Also... Muraco still sucks years later. Like, really sucks. Anyway, I thought about putting Goldberg at 100 because I enjoy watching him as much as any wrestler in the past 20 years.

Yeah this is like trying to justify Plessy v. Ferguson. Just because an asshole judge made a ruling don't make it right.

Serious question... can you give some examples of Angle being a great seller?

Is that announced already?

Shit.... this is going to cost too much money. Motorhead T Shirt will suffice. My big HHH cheering dreams are shattered.

I didn't take away that lesson at all. I took away that private footage taken without his consent was blasted on a webpage and the website now has to own up to allowing the footage to be seen. I also don't view Gawker as part of the press either so there is that.

When is the deadline?

I did change my avatar picture so that's a start. I don't want to buy a gray suit. That's out of the question. I don't have time to go long, straggly hair HHH. Might have to break down and get the Iron Fist shirt.

I am looking forward to the show more than ever now. With so little interest in the product or the outcomes, I can become completely unhinged at Mania and have fun much to the chagrin of those around me. Seriously, should I get the Iron Fist shirt... OR the Termination T....

This isn't murky. It doesn't matter if they wanted the whole thing down or not. It should never have been on the site in the first place. If I am hiring a lawyer, I would want them to fight to take everything down including the narrative also. It would be one thing if Hogan said these things in a public forum like Michael RIchards. He didn't. Would Hogan have sued Gawker if they "reported" he was a racist who slept with Bubba's wife but didn't show the video? Probably not.

Bullshit. The issue isn't whether they had the right to report that Hogan had sex with his buddy's wife and said racist things. The problem was that they showed footage of the act on thier website without his permission.

Props to Meltz this past week on some excellent bios... Hayabusa, Einhorn and even Keith Emerson.

On Jericho's podcast he said it was after Cliff Burton died.... in the middle of Hulkamania.

What is the story here?

I love Stan Hansen but I don't know if he is going to be that great of a speech. I don't regret skipping out on the Hall this year during Mania weekend. Besides Michael Hayes (who I will mark out for if he goes off on keeping prayer in school), there isn't one other nominee I feel like I need to hear speak.

Someone can be great but not the best. If you're the best then by default you should be great at whatever you are measuring. IN fact, I am creating my own 10 point system to illustrate why I think Jerry Lawler is the greatest wrestler of all time who happened to be the best at many things.

Hell, I had Santo higher simply because he signed a mask for me. That was the tiebreaker.

I have Akiyama in my Top 40. It's to his credit that he made it as high without the emotional connection. I don't loathe Akiyama the way you loathe Jumbo. I don't loathe him at all.

He just missed the final cut for me.
