Netflix creating a comedy series based on G.L.O.W.
Johnny Sorrow replied to goc's topic in Pro Wrestling
You should check out the episodes of Marons podcast where he talks to some of the stars, Chavo jr and Kia, and the creators. The women who created this didnt know anything about wrestling going in, and then listened to the wrestlers working on it as to what was the correct portrayal of wrestling. And then they all fell in love with it, Maron included. -
Wait, what?Why am I not getting paid for this? Edit: I mean, Why arent we getting paid for this?

I loved this show more than any wrestling show I've seen in a long fucking time. But holy fuck, Mauro is the worst. For every great call there's eight fucking stinkers. At least when Nigel fucks up its charming.

Wasn't that last one there the first ever WrestleMania weekend ROH show?Yep, and Piper cancelled cause of Feinstein, Dusty covered it and I got to meet Dusty and make him laugh.

And those are the targets for him to do his Twitter gimmick he was recommended to do.I like to think there's two Daves. First there's "Dave, the Dave who is the predominate reporter and historian of pro wrestling, and then there's "Here's what I think/ Twitter character/ awkward radio personality, I don't give a fuck PWG is fun" Dave.

Is TNA the worst wrestling promotion in history?
Johnny Sorrow replied to Loss's topic in Megathread archive
And he picked Loney Orcan. It was his choice. The NXT guys who need new names, and Biff Busick is a terrible name, are told to come up with lists of ideas for names now. It isn't like it once was. -
I'm not gonna dispute the guys background and sources, but when an ex TMZ guy is breaking stories, it really shows that "Pro Wrestling Journalism" is a fucking joke.

I'm sure both of them can get over a lick.

Rusev and English are my new favorite act. They're fucking tremendous. It totally has that feel of two guys thrown together with nothing going on who luck into chemistry. And it helps that both are awesome performers both in matches and in backstage stuff. Oh, and Rusev has a catchphrase, and it's awesome. I myself, am at this moment, celebrating Rusev Day. And, I need to clarify, now that I saw the whole show, they're my favorite up and coming act. Sami and Owens are my favorite top act. Outstanding.

You know what makes Zigglers act even more awful than it already was? The stupid record needle scratching to cut his music. Its 2017, most of the audience doesnt even know what a record player is. I love that Vince probably thinks Ellsworth in a dog suit is just silly shit that he thinks is hilarious, and has no idea what a Furry/ Dom deal is. 😄

Bliss is booked that way because she's committed to her character and has the best facial expressions and heel synergy with the crowd. It makes it more important when someone does beat her, and I'd imagine it's going to be Asuka. And I hope they fued over the belt. I think Bliss is a great "in ring worker", whatever the fuck that's supposed to mean. I think it means knowing how to connect with a crowd and do the wrestling as your character would do, which is exactly what she does. Shit, the only two heels who got chewed out by Angle for not helping fight the SD siege thing were Miz and Bliss, two of the only folks there who know how to be real heels.

I can't speak to the 3 hour version, but RAW on Hulu this week was great.

Anyone who thinks buggy whip arms is something that should even be referenced in 2017, let alone given reverence to, needs to be on a watchlist. No offense.

Dude. There comes a time to just give up . I know you maniacs want to bitch and moan about everything. I get it. Youre all diseased and its not your fault. But this time, just stop. Some of you people really need to have some sort of internal sit down about how you react to Dave. If you think his opinions about matches stink than thats fine. But when it comes to reporting, history, and obituaries..all written terribly.. no one compares. So stop with the Well I know what Dave said but I have a hunch, bullshit.

Ok, from Meltzer:

All that Nia stuff is bullshit. She just wanted to take a breather from the road.

I loved the main event. And what I liked the most was that it was the only match with tables, ladders, and chairs. I hate when they did these shows where they hamfist in the gimmicks into almost all the matches, one match is a chairs match, another is a tables match, etc. I dig that it was just all put into an insane and fun main event.
-
I've never understood why some people get so worked up about what Dave likes or doesn't like or what he does on Twitter to fuck with those same people. Stuttsy today has been engaging with him on Twitter, and that I get since Stuttsy is smart and knows it can get more eyes on his promotion. But besides that, why does anyone care? Like that guy here who posted that it matters to him because Dave is a tastemaker and if that makes people like wrestling he hates than its a problem. That's fucking insane. I read my first Observer in 1986, full of those Junkfood Dog comments. He's wanted to go back to trying, and failing , to be funny for awhile. And if trolling people on Twitter gives him his jollies than what's the problem? Who gives a fuck? If Dave saying some dopey shit about a match you loved or a match you hated upsets you, than the problem is you.

Tom Phillips was out cause he was getting married.

World Cast: A WCCW Review
Johnny Sorrow replied to Ricky Jackson's topic in Publications and Podcasts
Gary Hart is the true good guy. Hes just trying to help the misfits like Kabuki and Bundy fight back against this family of dummies spawned by a Nazi with a stupid big belt buckle who run the show with an iron...claw. -
Ive turned around on Gargano big time. I think hes great. But AJ is jacked and a true vet, despite his height. Gargano is lean and short. But hes also super charismatic. Thats what 205 Live needs..Super charismatic guys who have been in the WWE system for awhile.
-
SmackDown fucking ruled, and I desperately want to see Jinder to beat Lesnar via tons of cheating and interference.

World Cast: A WCCW Review
Johnny Sorrow replied to Ricky Jackson's topic in Publications and Podcasts
Have you ever wanted to hear about about how similar Bob Backlund and Kevin Von Erich are? Now you will! And.... A TITAN FALLS. Its all here, True Believer! -
I think that 205 Live is going to be better as the roster gets slowly replaced by guys who have spent years in NXT learning how to do this shit WWE style. Its why Enzo and Kallisto are on top now. Most of the roster was guys who got buzz during the CWC, and of them only Kendrick had ever been there before, right? I see guys like Gargano, Lio Rush, Ciampa, etc; down there learning and given time to figure it out and Im confident in the future of the division in some way or another. Shit, Lio just debuted and is already over.
