  1. So they are basically suing them because they know they cannot afford being sued and will settle by dropping out of the other lawsuit. What a bunch of assholes. Someone should do a kickstarter and pay for a counter-sue or something like that.
  2. The second half of the sentence (the stuff not in the signature) makes Meltzer's quote look (at least) half as bad.
  3. Meltzer had a great story on the breaking new audioshow yesterday. After talking about Buddy Landel he spoke a couple of minutes about Cora Combs (who also passed away yesterday, at the age of 92). He spoke about watching some Crush Gals matches together with her and (one of her) comment was: "Where are the tits?"
  4. Though Kelly took an unnecessary risk when he estimated 20 instead of 9.
  5. From my experience most math professors at university think that statistics is not proper science and way beneath them to spend any time on.
  6. Did I hear right JR calling this "the tenth annual Battle Bowl"?
  7. Really? This is a match I would rather avoid.
  8. The matwork stuff here was more loose as you would normally see in shootstyle wrestling. Maybe I am getting conditioned by all the RINGS greatness for me to notice that, I don't know.
  9. Halfway through the Horner interview I had to hit FF because I could not take this any longer.
  10. There may no be a place called "Fuck" or "Fouq" or whatever in Canada, there is however a town called "Fucking" in Austria.
  11. Explain the usage of the Dixie (the flag, not the clueless putz) in southern wrestling to non-Americans. Is it more appropriate for heels or faces?
  12. Call me crazy but that was one of may favorite matches on this set. Must be a genetic thing. While Schumann definitely held his one Liger is so great in this. He was a guy who really could do everything. Sometimes I wonder if his body of work would be even greater if he spent his peak years doing a different style than the NJ junior heavyweight thing. A funny thing was the crowd chanting "Zugabe!" (means asking for an encore) after high-spots, a bit like the "this is awesome" chants.
  13. Isn't Tony Bryan's brother-in-law?
  14. Do you mean something like this?
  15. With all the free months it's not even 9.99 per month but rather 7.50 or so.
  16. I have no problem with the Botchamania concept in principle, as long as the clips don't include ( a ) spots where wrestlers got seriously injured (like Villano IV breaking his neck courtesy of of Raven and Kanyon) and ( b ) backyard stuff like someone doing the Foley jumping from the garage thing and missing his target.
  17. Yeah, it was him. He was trying to orchestrate some sort of 'grab bag' system for his discs, where one of the grab bags would contain the elusive Flair vs Veneno match. Without going into all the specifics of everything, it turned out that he never had it in the first place. Some old time traders may remember some post on Crazy Max where he sai he was off to the Dominican Republic specifically to source this, and then when he returned claimed he had it but was going to keep it for himself. He also used to refer to himself as 'the King of Handhelds'! That's what I would call "working".
  18. When Johnny said "set a police station on fire" I thought he was talking about Bruiser Bedlam. But he actually blew-up a police station...
  19. There is some stuff here that really takes away from the brutality of this: (a) the announcers pretending not to recognize Sullivan when he was under the hood and ( doing CPR and checking the pulse of a guy who is clearly moving.
  20. Huh? It was definitely there in the version that is on the 92 yearbook. I would really like to know, if the kids there were TJ Wilson and Teddy Hart.
  21. I think he's the only one who could offhand. Maybe Inoki? Did Inoki do any training? I mean Kotetsu Yamamoto was the main trainer of the New Japan dojo for a long time and before that I think it was Karl Gotch.
  22. They ran in Zürich but had Cesaro on the show in Nuremburg, that happened at the same time, so what do you expect?
  23. Pretty untypical Bret finish, instead of going for the five moves of doom he instead pulls down the straps and punches Flair as if he were Jerry Lawler.
  24. Usually in these kind of videos the featured guy in the training video is the guy doing moves, not taking them. As this made perfect sense however this was a fun alteration.
