Johnny Sorrow

I posted this at DVDR in the Too Short section re: The AWA set, and just realized I might get a better set of answers here. It was regarding the Lawler/ Mulligan vs The Sheiks match. "Yeah, I loved this for all the reasons already mentioned. Lawler was just fucking awesome and so was Blackwell. That multiple fist drop spot looked fucking killer. Patera was really good, too. Mulligan stunk, but it didn't hurt the match. Was Mulligan ever good? I've only seen a tiny bit of his Seventies stuff, not enough to form an opinion. But I've seen a lot of his Eighties stuff and he pretty much stinks. I love his interviews and all that, though. Hell, I remember seeing the guy live at a WWF show at the Spectrum in 1986 at the very end of his career. He wrestled Jimmy Jack Funk and won really quick. But he was totally gassed. We were sitting next to the entrance and when he walked by after the match, the poor guy looked like he was about to have a heart attack. Granted, Vince had him dressing up in full "Bunkhouse" clothes at the time so he was wearing jeans and a heavy red long underwear/ union suit type top out there under the hot lights." I just found the card at The History Of WWE site, man was that a packed show.

The latest WHATAMANOOVER!, "Resurrecting Bryan" is archived and ready for listening or download. Let’s play a game of “Where’s Bryan?” (Coming soon to a home near you) as Johnny Sorrow drags British Matt on to actually discuss Smackdown (Shock Horror!), the rest of the show gets dedicated to the Olympic Opening Ceremony as Bryan finally asks the question we’ve all wanted to know the answer to… “It’s Friday?” http://www.tnt-radio.net/archive/563-whata...rrecting-bryan/

So, is it crazy that I want Resident Evil to "unretire" to put his two cents in?

Ok. In the Mid-Eighties Polynesian Pro Wrestling was aired on Saturday nights on the cable channel that was there to see the Stock Market Ticker and they'd put on any old thing behind that. I remember seeing Flair vs. Siva Afi in a big main event, Lawler heeling it up in a promo, and lots of Lars Anderson. It didn't last long and they re-ran a lot of shows, but I'd imagine SOMEONE taped these.

The Philadelphia Civic Center, The Spectrum,the Louisville Gardens, and the Meadowlands were all awesome. For small Indy shows, in the mid-2000's, the Rexplex in Elizabeth, NJ was outstanding.

That's not scummy looking. That's AWESOME looking.

See, A LOT of people think Ferris was a douchebag. And Punk is way better at being a douchebag than a smiling babyface.

I liked how when Steph's music hit, HHH gave a look like, "Shit dude, you're fucked now." I used to make the same look when I was married and was in any sort of disagreement with someone and eventually my wife would snap and "take over" the argument. And I liked the DX deal. First of all, I liked DX back in the day, and second..I liked seeing a gang of guys who were wild when they were young get together and goof on themselves while having a moment of "getting the gang back together." Reminds me of me and my old pals when we occasionally all get together. Minus the matching outfits. Oh and I thought Sandow was great here.

I thought that the reason Steph came out was cause she was pissed that a slime like Heyman mentioned her kids, even though HHH already warned him to knock it off.

Ha! After reading your long-ass, positive & glowing review of the show on DVDVR I said to myself "he's drunk." You really were! hey doesn't mean I was wrong!

Yeah. The joke was "X-Pac is a greasy haired skeevy degenerate trying to hit on Trish." That's all there was to it. And I absolutely loved the show, minus the Charlie Sheen stuff. Then again, to cross reference another thread, I was rather drunk and stoned.

I was at the show in Philly with the cage match, and it was a fucking blast.

I first read this topic as "Pro Wrestling and Meth".

I'm only talking about the gimmick. There were lots of Road Warrior inspired dudes back then. Demolition was definitely one of them, (and the most successful one at that). Admitting that doesn't suddenly make them irrelevant, and hey, they got over. Good for them. And if you're a huge fan of them then fine. Admitting that they were Vince's Warriors shouldn't affect any fond memories you have of them. What's next? The Midnight Rockers weren't Rock N' Roll Express rip-offs with a name taken from both the R n' R and The Midnight Express?
