    I want to be able to review more consistently than I have in the last couple of years. With my older child in school, it should actually be do-able. I specifically want to check out more indy groups.

    He uses an Xbox.

    My buddy still buys the PPVs, even though he has the network. Because, they play like garbage on the network, with constant pauses and skipping. I think it's just he has shitty service, since my brother in law watches them on the network and says it's fine.

    Hopefully they will try and get Bob for 81 but why does he want so much. I guess there is little chance of getting Hogan to do a timeline. They wound up doing '81 with Rick Martel. But, I'm hopeful for 1982. . . . .

    I enjoyed their match last Thursday, but I didn't think it was anything amazing. They both had their moments, but there was also plenty of goofy shit, like Sasha's back flip bump from the spear, and Charlotte aping the Ibushi moonsault spot.

    I disagree about D'Lo being the least memorable. He's probably one of the people who benefited the most from Russo's tenure as head writer, because Russo always made sure that the mid carders had something going on too. From 1997 when he was the only NOD member that Farroq didn't shitcan until 2000, he was on TV and in some sort of angle on a pretty regular basis.

    What are the chances of Ambrose and Reigns being the 2015 versions of Daniel Bryan and Batista? Serious question, not trolling.

    I had issues with PTW on the Roku yesterday morning. But, then I tried again at about 5:00 PM and it queued right up.

    I never understood the point of giving Curt the boot. With how he'd been booked since Fall Brawl '97, there was no way anyone was going to feel a lick of sympathy for him.

    I was actually at this SD taping, and it took forever for them to lower the cage.

    This was lots of fun. I'm surprised Flair hasn't taken more lumps as a Rogers rip-off, the way Hogan has as a Graham rip-off. Watching Rogers overdone selling and reactions, especially when he'd go airborne with the headlock, made this look like a template for Flair's famous days as touring NWA Champion. Rogers is saddled with a pretty useless opponent, but finds ways to keep things entertaining throughout.

    If the person in charge of such things at the station wasn't paying careful attention because it's just fake wrestling, and who cares?

    I don't know why I'm so annoyed by it, because it's not like I'm in some huge hurry to see it. But, I don't understand why they're holding off on the 1/1/96 'Raw Bowl' episode. They've done the rest of January (even gone back and done 1/8) and are into Feb now.

    I always cracked up at the scene where HHH is talking with the old ladies, and Billy pops in and says that those are the chicks that HHH gets.

    Definitely. Watts would have had a field day with Henry.

    MikeCampbell replied to Smack2k's topic in WWE

    He recruited "Little Johnny" who's singing disturbed Cena enough to let Bray win that cage match.

    That actually makes the most sense. Watts used to spend a full day shooting local promos and it was hell on the boys to keep track of what TV show aired in which market, so they knew what angle or feud to be talking about in the promo. So, it actually makes sense that someone in Vince's camp or the TV station's camp dropped the ball and either played or sent the wrong set of promos.

    Bret himself actually rebuked this in his Timeline interview. Vince had him locked up until September, and the offer from WCW was far below what he was making from the WWF.

    I'm assuming the Heyman doc was listed by mistake. I checked this morning, and it's no longer listed.

    A friend of mine worked AJ a few years back, and was scared shitless to take the Styles Clash. When Styles picked him up, he just froze and AJ couldn't do the stepover, so AJ just tombstoned him and that was the finish.

    It wasn't so much that Schiavone and Bischoff got "heat" for it. Although everyone pretty much thought it was a dick move to try to shit on Mick's big moment. But it's more of an "LOL" moment, because their big mouths caused them to lose a lot of viewers that night.
  22. MikeCampbell
    Beyond the ring lists the Heyman doc as being available, but when I click to watch it, I'm told there is a problem . . . . .
  23. MikeCampbell
    That's brilliant!

    I'll be a monkey's bare-assed Uncle! This is awesome. There are probably only three or four actual wrestling moves, but the stiffness and intensity that Andre and Stan use more than make up for it. Everything takes a back seat to beating the piss out of each other. Andre takes a few nice bumps from Stan, and even the Giant can't withstand the Western Lariat! Then Andre pulls out his own elbow pad and makes Hansen eat the European Lariat!

    This is an attempt to unify Verne's AWA Title with Baba's PWF Title, so the finish is almost blatantly obvious. But, this winds up being a fun match, even more so when you consider that both Baba and Gagne had age, and other factors, catching up with them. The first fall is a bit dull, with Verne keeping things on the ground, but, Verne does bust out a nice pair of dropkicks. The second and third falls are more like sprints, with Baba bumping Verne, and Verne doing a surprisingly nice job of stooging, but not overdoing it, until they eventually go to the double count out.
