  1. Eventually it will be the Flairs, for now I'm inclined to go with the Rhodes, if I knew more about Stu or Dory Sr. it might be those families.
  2. I feel like there already is a Phil Schneider review of the Jarrett/Dutch orchestra match?
  3. I couldn't read the whole title on mobile so it ellipsed to "lackluster career like..." And I just knew immediately the topic was Randy. The answer is quite probably no.
  4. This has repeatedly been shown NOT to be the case vis a vis blurring, removed commentary, "WWF" edits, etc--or else, again, they just don't care about showing the unedited digital version if it exists. I would be amazed if more than a few thousand people in the entire world really give a damn about it. Not that I'm not one, or that it shouldn't be done right on principle--but in the scheme of things, it's understandably an afterthought.
  5. That could be/probably is a relic resulting from the fact that the show was prepared and archived during the name dispute, then not redone afterwards.I doubt the blurred version is the master copy. WWE would have been very stupid to alter the master copy. They don't care enough (and shouldn't, it's really not worth the time) to go back to the master, ie the original videotape, to create a new digital version now that the issue is resolved.
  6. That could be/probably is a relic resulting from the fact that the show was prepared and archived during the name dispute, then not redone afterwards.
  7. Was that the A show in the late 80ies or was it Superstars? Superstars was where most of the angles actually happened, but everything was covered on PTW.
  8. I thought the conventional wisdom was that giving Vickie multiple years of a good-paying TV job, then paying for her medical administration degree was the fulfillment of that promise.
  9. I mean...only if they don't do a show. Or if it's USA-only, 30-60 long (not a terrible idea).
  10. Same vein: Terry Taylor! "Multiple and varied contributions to the industry" and all that, plus I have no doubt he would give a good speech.
  11. You should rewatch the first Star Trek movie with the idea that Chris Pine is doing a loving tribute to Shatner's Kirk and you'll like it better. And then don't watch Into Darkness, because it is a lazy, slapdash piece of shit. I came around a bit on Beyond--it's not the smartest movie, but it's decently creative compared to the first two, more fun, and more confident.
  12. Hey, it's that little boring guy!

    Really well done, and I would imagine his own idea.

    TAKER: Nope kid, I don't got that one in me tonight. Just give me your finish three or four more times and six chairshots and we'll call it a night.

    But they sure did turn up the speed on the lunch line. NAOMI: No fuck that. I have been waiting the entire night for this and I will not be rushed.

    Jerk! Ass! (No, I can't delete posts or I would this one)

    Exactly what it needed to be and exactly worked right. Crowd hasn't been so awake in over an hour.

    Again I have to ask: who likes the 6-hour Mania? If it isn't the live crowd, and it isn't the hardcores, and it isn't the casuals...?

    Counter/counter/counter/counter...zzzzzzz

    My friends have been ranging from indifferent conversations to close attention during the show. This is the first time all night they turned to open mockery. Awesome. How hard is it raining? Is that what's wrong with this crowd? Everyone in the first ten rows is just zzzzzz.

    Look at that fucking diamond. Three months salary indeed.

    Decent "I know you" structure, slow cookie cutter action.

    I see Ascension are using little vinyl front skirts to Certainly Not Look Like The Road Warriors.

    And before that he dropped him once straight on the head and once half on the head and half on the neck. Oh yeah, Neville was already in the slop bucket, I just didn't get to my phone until a bunch of people had noted the suplexes. Not a great night in the annals of safety.

    Christ, Neville gut-shotted Aries on that finish. Poor guy. Solid finishing stretch (facial work!) but a bit of a mess on the way from the first highspots to there (wandering around on the apron). Curse of the style. I wish the current generation of referees were less generic and indistinguishable. I realize WWE considers that desirable.
