He briefly talked about the early days of ECW on Forever Hardcore.

This. He'd be a great addition to the legends round table, if they decide to resurrect them, and he's perfect for things like documentaries, and have him and Flair do commentary on their first Clash of Champions match or something.

WWE World Title Picture For The Next Few Months
MikeCampbell replied to Loss's topic in Armchair Booking
I would think that Evolution/Shield is similar to the Shield/Wyatt match from the Chamber, an all out war. I agree that Evolution should win, but the match should go in such a manner that the Shield's stock still rises. Reigns can hit his big moves on HHH, and have the ref get pulled out to save him. I think Bryan/Kane should wind up being somewhat similar to the Bryan/HHH RAW match, with the Evolution run in to try to help Kane, and then the Shield making the save to getting their heat back, maybe with them running off Orton and Batista and then hitting the powerbomb on HHH, and with the playing field level, Bryan is able to beat Kane. -
My first non-Birdman look at Koko was in the UWF, he hits UWF jobber Gustavo Mendoza with the mother of all dropkicks. It even winds up being in their intro video.

I'll repeat what I said in the massive WWE thread. What happened last night is completely forgiveable. Bryan got to show up, after having the week off, and give the fans their huge pop. Then, they did the angle with Kane laying him out, so that he could GTFO of there and deal with more pressing matters. I wouldn't be surprised if they wheeled him to the back and then he and Brie hopped right in the car and took off.

How incessant were the Albert chants? I remember when the Wyatt Family first showed up, the fans were chanting "Husky Harris" at Bray, but they stuck it out, and Bray is pretty darn over right now. RE: Russev, the jury is still out for me too. It'd be easy to write him off, but I'm remembering just how over Umaga got in 2006, so I think there's still some hope.

Sean usually is very good about keeping guys reined in like that. The only exception is Cornette, since his tangents are usually more entertaining than what they're talking about. I remember during the Jannetty shoot, when Jannetty was about to get sidetracked and asked if he could tell a story Sean said something like "I'll get on the train, but you have to get to the station."

I've been trying to watch the 2011 Battle of Los Angeles. But, Hero vs. Willie Mack keeps literally putting me to sleep. I've sat down with it twice now, and fallen asleep both times.
-
The Bryan thing is entirely forgivable. He got to make his appearance to get the crowd amped, heat up his upcoming title match with Kane, and then GTFO and deal with more important things.

Fun promo from Sting, the left fist is for Sting, and the right is for the little Stingers!

[1992-07-04-WCW-Saturday Night] Steve Austin and Barry Windham
MikeCampbell replied to Loss's topic in July 1992
This was a fun little segment to help build up to Austin and Windham's rematch in the Omni. It'd have been smarter to do this to build to a PPV or Clash of Champions match, but that's Watts for you.- 9 replies

[1992-07-04-WCW-Saturday Night] Interview: Cactus Jack
MikeCampbell replied to Loss's topic in July 1992
Cactus seems to like the line about the lump in the throat. Didn't he cut a similar promo on Sting when he first came back?- 6 replies

Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 3
MikeCampbell replied to Loss's topic in Megathread archive
It could go all Ryback though... That's a very real possibility. Highly doubt it. Ryback ended up flopping because they kept putting him in high profile matches were him winning wasn't seen as the best scenario by the company (vs Punk, Shield and Cena) until he was just another guy and ended up in the dreaded midcard limbo. With Reigns, it seems they'll be pretty comfortable putting him over pretty much anyone. I also think Roman has way more potential than Ryback so having more patience/faith in him makes sense. Wasn't the fact that Ryback showed no discernible improvement in his work, also a factor in them giving up on him? -
If you believe Kevin Von Erich, Gino Hernandez was one of the least tough guys in the business. The only guy who's ass that Gino could kick was Ox Baker, so Gino found an excuse to do it every time he and Ox were in the same building.

OMG, if Bryan walked out wearing that belt on RAW, I'd freak out.

I liked this just fine, but I wasn't blown away or anything.

Lex Luger in 1989?

Buddy cuts a good promo and Horner runs him off. He should have left well enough alone. Dutch is hilarious switching sides and backing Horner. Horner just sucks.

[1992-07-04-USWA-Memphis TV] Eddie Gilbert and Ricky Morton
MikeCampbell replied to Loss's topic in July 1992
Eddie finally unseats Lawler and has the title! Eddie brings out Ricky Morton, because he thinks they're so much alike. But, Ricky isn't down with what Eddie is saying and tells him as such. Ricky gets the better of him in the ring, and he's ready for a match. -
[1992-07-04-USWA-Memphis TV] Interview: Jerry Lawler & Jeff Jarrett
MikeCampbell replied to Loss's topic in July 1992
This was sort of a useless segment. It recaps what everyone already knows. Jerry cuts a decent promo, and Jarrett is eons worse. -
[1992-07-04-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler & Jeff Jarrett vs The Moondogs
MikeCampbell replied to Loss's topic in July 1992
I'm a bit surprised. I figured the Moondogs were taking the titles back here. But, no complaints, with how long the Moondogs had been winning, it was time for the babyfaces to have some fun.- 11 replies

[1992-07-04-WWF-Superstars] Update: Nailz/Big Bossman recap
MikeCampbell replied to Loss's topic in July 1992
The Nailz beatdown is shown, with some grizzly photos of the aftermath. One has to wonder if Cobb County just let him keep his prison uniform, and where exactly he got his hands on a nightstick and cuffs.
