Grimmas

F, murder, kill? The Barbarian, Tito Santana, Jesse Ventura

That letter reminded me that I really enjoyed every TNA ppv from 2005 to September 2006 when they fucked up with Joe. Of course they could had got right back on track next month, but then Russo appeared.

Click here! The extreme crew (Glenn, Mark & Steven) are back to jump into 1999 with our review of Guilty as Charged! Yoshihiro Tajiri and Super Crazy have arrived! Sid is here! Is this a transitional show? We will discuss it all on this hardcore podcast! Programming note: Our next episode will be a look at LA Park and his great lucha brawls!

So we should aim for a start date of July 1, 2015 with a roster start date of July 1, 1983 and just go with the current day month but the former year? That sounds awesome to me. We have all of June to finish rules and get the drafts done. We are up to 8 people involved, so that is a good start.

A question, should we start on January 1, 1983 or should we start on 1983 on the day we start. Say, we get this rolling for July 1, should the game time we start at be July 1, 1983 or January 1, 1983? It might be easier to go with the current date and just change the year.

Is that necessary or can someone just draft a team and then have others confirm they were a regular team by the date?

The only problem is it takes way the biggest factor in drawing, anticipation.

That's a great great post.

Holy shit! Next episode!

Did I miss it and Tim became a regular co-host? The goal is to get Tim on every episode and I try to work around his schedule. There could be a rare episode where he isn't there the whole thing and just joins me for the Earthquake match though. He's pretty busy in the summer.

We had a Max Movies at the edge of town, where you would take the metal tag to the cash and they would grab the VHS tape from the back for you. My Dad would take me every few weeks or so and let me rent one movie, which was mostly wrestling but sometimes the Transformers movie. The selection was the WWF ppvs and CHV. My favourite thing was renting the "Best of the WWF" series. There was also one PWI in Japan tape, which included New Japan matches with the likes of The Barbarian, Jimmy Snuka, etc.. with Gordon Solie announcing. The worst was me waiting for WrestleMania 5 to come so badly! My Mom was so nice and picked it up for me the day it came out on her way home from work. One problem, she grabbed a Beta copy......

If I was in control I would had had Bossman/Tenta as the tag champs into of Shamrock/Bossman. Bossman & Tenta destroying everybody would had been awesome. I dunno Steven. I know you love your nostalgia but geez..... Actually, another point - was there ever a time when mainstraem US wrestling styles changed as much in 7-8 years than say, 1988 to 1996? I can't imagine any headliner from 2006-07 - or quite a bit earlier, having difficulty fitting in today - Jericho, Rock, HHH get away with it. Is Bossman/Tenta worse than Bossman/Shamrock? 83-90 was just as much. So was 73-80. I think the better question may be was there ever a time with less change than 2003 and on?

I've always been a big fan. Growing up, fat wrestlers are some of the wrestler I feel the most nostalgia for. However, I really started to appreciate him while watching a bunch of Big Bossman matches and his series with Earthquake produced some really good matches. Watching those you start to notice how great Earthquake was at playing his role and all the cool little extra stuff he did in matches. From slowing stepping on people to throwing them off and then flexing. Great stuff. The love will continue as Tim and I will be live-watching a Earthquake match on each and every Pro-Wrestling Super Show! I may had come up with the idea to do it once, but Tim begged me to make it a fixture of the show.

Rules are discussed here. So who wants in. Basically you would commit to book one tv show a week and 1 house show or more a month, plus be involved in the draft. List: 1. Grimmas 2. Kris Zellner 3. Beast 4. Cross Face Chicken Wing 5. JerryvonKramer 6. Jesse Ewiak 7. DylanWaco 8. goc 9. El Boricua 10. dedhemingway 11. Boon 12. dkookypunk43 13. dawho5 14. TravJ1979 15. Flyin Brian 16. Peachchaos 17. RockinCrypt 18. JHawk

Doing a podcast on LA Park focussing on his brawls, besides the Wagner match what would be the 3-5 you would choose. One of the Mesias ones, the Santo one? There is a good Super Parka one. Any thoughts?

Badlittlekitten, please describe how Charlotte can not lace The Miz's boots, please.

So, let's recap where we are at: 1) We draft out the promotions and you keep the owner, announcers and 1 piece of talent. 2) There is a draft of all remaining talent, where if you pick a tag team that exists as of 1/1/83 than you forfeit your next round pick. 3) Each promoter runs a weekly tv show (in real time) and as many major shows as they want. 4) Every promoter who runs a NWA company gets a vote on who is the NWA Champion and gets to bid for dates with that champion. 5) Talent trades are acceptable. 6) Every six months there is a dispersal draft of some sort. 7) Some kind of random injury draw will happen. To figure out is how to exactly deal with Japan tours and wrestlers who are freelancers. Am I missing something?

That's a good rule, actually.
