Grimmas

Thank you. To be honest, I was trying to crib the "How did this get made" podcast, which looks at bad movies. Kind of wanted a fun, but not mean show. Glad it's working for you, it's fun to record.

Greatest thread ever?

I started reading graphic novels about 3/4 years ago. I'm 33 now. I started comics at 25.

I had it too.

Glad you liked the Stardom match, I thought it would be something you've never seen, but be up your alley. SUPER PORKY vs UNIVERSO 2000 Two guys I rather enjoy! Hey it's a title match, which is an odd fit for Porky. Some fun technical stuff in the first fall, but boy is it awesome when Porky get control and squashes Universo for the win. Into the second fall and damn do I LOVE Porky working holds. There is something about a bowling ball applying a STF that is just fun. It's all a technical battle with Universo getting the submission. These two exchanging holds i not what I expected, but it was a treat. Final fall now! More matwork which leaads to the contest picking up a lot of steam. Porky stomach bumping Universo out of the ring then hitting a SUPER splash to the outside ruled! The ending shocked me with Universo countering a slam into an inside cradle for the win. Overall this was tons of fun and a great watch! Thanks Matt!

I know, wtf? One Man Gang was in the freaking match, just use him!

https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/wbt8 Steven Graham (@StevenGrahamTWS) & JR Goldberg (@wrestlingbubble) are back to talk listener Tyler Beach's request of WCW World War 3 1995. We discuss this three ring, sixty men, battle royal with a giant in each ring.

Stupid Americans. You should follow the greatest living American Auston Matthews who dragged himself out of the desert of Arizona to become the best hockey player in the world and be a fan.

You really think Austin spraying people with a beer truck is a way to show someone wrestling? Somehow that is better than a vicious brawl (for someone who likes Mortal Kombat)?

Thanks Stacy. People laughing with us, without being mean spirited is the goal of the show. I guess your theory could make sense too, but it remains the execution was so awful that who knows what they were actually thinking? I can't recall the show, just going with the WON voters. Two matches on the worst of the year list is pretty bad. Although worst match, we are learning, is kind of a bad category.

Loves games like mortal kombat and stuff. Got 5 or so minutes to impress her with wrestling for the first time so need something good. I'm just guessing picking something with austin would be a good idea as he was super over with the crowd be it a part of a match or a angle. An angle would need too much context. 99 is a terrible time too, because it's trash and it will turn anyone off. Plus, you'd probably want something relatively current or what are they going to do, watch old tapes as a newcomer? Do something like Brock-Cena from Extreme Rules or something along those lines.

Never show him WWE 1999 if you want him to actually like it or watch it ever again.

I started from January 1995 and am up to February 1996. It's such an easy show to watch. Angles are great, amazing promos and the occasional awesome match to boot.

Not that I can see.

That's really dumb on Shimmers part. They're already 2 years behind on shows. They should really work on getting volumes 80-100 out so you can actually know what's going on with the promotion. I'd rather watch from the beginning, to be honest. Shimmer is odd, because it's already two years behind or whatever, so what does up to date even mean? What number was their last show? That's up to date. 104 is taped, but the last one released on DVD is 79.

Will this stuff be deleted or stay up? Did all the previous hidden gems stay or are some gone? Excited for this when I get home tonight. I love that the RVD-Jericho match comes out exactly in line with my watch through of ECW. Liger-Eddie, Piper-Valentine, fuck this is awesome shit to watch.

It's hard to have the right people involved. First that they will continue to post and second that people don't get completely unrealistic (pushing guys way too early before they are ready, or way too late when they are over the hill).

The Moon. The Moon would be a better place to start. Or, maybe, Mexico. In 1995. Shit, the moon. Yeah, that was some whacked out shit and more of a story with chapters and stuff. It's COMPLETELY different. Maybe I'll try to write some of that as well. Weird mentioning Mexico, because I was figuring out Mexico in 93 in LA using the IWC name, but went to WCW instead. I think I just want to book La Parka. The problem with Mexico is that it was so good already, how can you make it better? While WCW was THE UTTER SHIT, so it's an actual issue.

I can say again how cool it is to have The Faces of Fear in AJPW in the 90s?

Since I finally have been able to keep a podcast going regularly (check out Who Booked This? on the PWO Podcast Network), I think it's time to get back into some armchair booking. What better place to start then WCW in 2000? Souled Out 2000 is a few days away and it's now come out that WCW World Champion Bret Hart is injured and may have to retire, and WCW United States Champion Jeff Jarrett is injured and can not compete. The main event and semi-main event are now cancelled. Head booker, Vince Russo's plan to fix this is to give the title to Tank Abbott. He is fired on the spot. This is when Steven Graham comes in to take over the head booking position, while Kevin Sullivan will be his assistant. Rumours are talents like Chris Benoit and Shane Douglas are unhappy with this decision and may walk out after the ppv. January 16, 2000 Live from the Firstar Center in Cincinnati, Ohio on PPV! Souled Out The original line up was: WCW World Champion Bret Hart vs Sid Vicious WCW US Champion Jeff Jarrett vs Chris Benoit (Triple Threat Theater Series) Terry Funk vs Kevin Nash (Hardcore Match, winner becomes Commissioner of WCW) Buff Bagwell vs Diamond Dallas Page (Last Man Standing) WCW Tag Team Champions David Flair & Crowbar vs Vampiro and a Dream Tag Partner Big Vito & Johnny the Bull w/ Disco Inferno vs The Harris Brothers WCW Cruiserweight Champion Madusa vs Oklahoma WCW Hardcore Champion Brian Knobbs vs Fit Finlay vs Norman Smiley vs Meng Booker T w/ Midnight vs Stevie Ray Tank Abbott vs Jerry Flynn This card will obviously change come Sunday's Souled Out as the new booker is now in place, but how. Will Benoit and company walk? How will they handle the top two matches?

We are open to anything, I think. As long as there is enough to talk about for 30ish minutes. I'll put that angle on the list.

Everything but 98/99 I think

LA Park in CMLL is the best thing ever, here hope it lasts long enough to get a few matches in or longer. Park is the fucking best.

Amazing. I could try to get Leafs season tickets, but sadly I am not rich enough and also there is a 100 year waiting list, so I'd be dead. You can pay monthly here and full tickets are like $160 a month for nosebleeds. They have half season or quarters that are less. The Leafs I hear take first born children. That would be an amazing price... Recent aritcle, from March: The team is telling season ticket holders this week that renewals for next fall will cost roughly an extra 10 to 15 percent, on average. It comes on the heels of a similar increase after last season. On a per-ticket basis, the price of an average seat in the lower bowl is heading up $24, to $270. In the upper bowl, prices are going up $12 per ticket to an average of $94 each. This season, the average re-sale price of a ticket in the nose-bleed sections sells on re-sale websites for close to $150 dollars. so $3,854 to $11,070 for season tickets. That is single tickets. Also waiting list is only about 20 years, so I exaggerated.
