Like people who can't spell where and there?

He said Magnum TA was drunk, and then deleted it and apologised when called out on it.

What other things have you corrected him on?

I just don't think that for the time period the original e-mail was referring to that Dusty was booking himself in a lot of main events. It seemed to be mainly him and Magnum teaming up against the Midnights or TV title stuff with Tully. Obviously Dusty was a main event guy for many years before that. Just seems like a really weird thing for people to get all riled up about when clearly I've said much dumber things this month alone.

PeteF3 • 4 hours ago − If Dusty wasn't a "top tier guy," then I guess Andre the Giant wasn't a top-tier guy either. Dusty was one of the biggest national stars in wrestling in the 1970's, probably as big or bigger than any given NWA World Champion. Any territory in the country could have spiked the house by booking him. 2 •Reply•Share › Scott Keith MOD • 3 hours ago • parent He was asking about Dusty in the 80s, though. 0 •Reply•Share › PeteF3 • 3 hours ago • parent Where he continued to be a top national star and was easily the #1 babyface for both Florida and Crockett for most of the decade while in the pre-expansion days still being in demand in New York, Memphis, Portland, and the Mid-South. Dusty only ceased to be a "top tier guy" at the end of the decade. 1 •Reply•Share › Scott Keith MOD • 2 hours ago • parent I dunno, even by 85 he was mainly doing tag matches with Magnum and then moving on to the US title level, but you seem to love proving whatever point I'm making to be wrong, so let's just agree to disagree.

Another fine comment from wrestling historian SK Has he ever claimed to be a wrestling historian?

He came in at 18 in a 2007 poll of the most influential people in history. http://www.japanprobe.com/2007/04/01/histo...-edition-video/ Hmmm looking at the other list linked thear from 2006 polls Giant Baba #93 on the most popular historical fig poll Jackie Sato #87 on the list of most popular women (list limited to women who'd passed away) FLIK, it's there. Not thear.

But why does he do it? It is some inside joke that none of us our privy too?

Owen Hart had the biggest fall

It was actually the exact opposite. A really good bit of continuity, especially with Miz and Bryan

Whatever happened to USA Pro?

Kane is: Heel until 1998 Turns face after Judgment Day 1998 Turns heel leading up to Summerslam 2000 Re-teams with Undertaker and turns face again early 2001 Turns heel after unmasking 2003 Turns face after miscarriage in 2004 Turns heel in 2008 I think Kane turned face again in 2009 and reunited with Taker Turns on Taker in 2010 Turns face again in 2011 Returns as heel in 2012 I think he just became a face again. Also, I think Jericho returned as a heel this year

I think in WWE: Big Show debuted as a heel aligned with McMahon Turned face at Wrestlemania 15 Turned heel and aligned with Taker in summer 1999 Turned face again and won the title in fall 1999 Turned heel and feuded with The Rock beginning 2000 Turned face with comedy character spring 2000 Turned heel on Taker fall 2000 Turned face during Invasion summer 2001 Turned heel when Invasion ended fall 2001 Turned face in fall 2004 Turned heel in ECW summer 2006 Returns and beats up Rey (heel), feuds with Mayweather (heel), but then becomes face in feud with Mayweather Turns heel on Undertaker fall 2007 Turns face after ShowMiz breaks up spring 2010 Turns heel in 2012 That's a lot.

Oh, so Meltzer was wrong then. This show was not his reporting forte.

I don't think they would want those two guys out there. Austin is shooting a movie. They probably wouldn't, but Dave reported on it in advance that every single living wrestler not employed by TNA or in rehab would be on the show. And there weren't honestly that many cameo. I expected the wedding to be filled with them. A lot of the guys "confirmed" were nowhere to be found either. Not sure who the "shocking" person was either that MKJ was talking about. Fair point, I didn't realise that Meltzer hyped the show up like that. The producers and director? It's not like they can just re-arrange a film shoot for a silly TV show.

Can you explain this, FLIK?

I got a local ad as well, but it wasn't Linda

Thank you! Been bugging me forever

Hey Scott, the other day I realized I was in attendance both when Owen nearly paralyzed Steve Austin (and broke his neck) at Summerslam 97 and when D-Lo did paralyze Droz a few years later at a Smackdown taping. This got me thinking, how come Owen’s career didn’t suffer to the same degree D-lo’s did in the aftermath? Was it because Steve (somewhat) recovered? Also it seems to me that a wrestler – especially one of Owens skill and pedigree- doing a move so incorrectly as to break his opponent’s neck (if i remember right, Owen set Steve up for a tombstone, with Steve facing him, and then sat out in a standard piledriver motion, instead of kneeling for the tombstone, giving Steve nowhere to tuck his head and pretty much driving him headfirst into the mat) is a much bigger “sin” than just botching a move by dropping a guy the way D-Lo did. Hell, Miz is being jobbed out just for forgetting to catch a guy. So I guess the question is, how did Owen skate after he almost crippled the cash cow? Well, Owen was a guy with an impeccable safety record before that, and Austin had already agreed to the piledriver. It wasn’t like Owen went out there and went into business for himself, he told Austin that he was doing the move like that. The thing is that with Austin, his neck was already in such bad shape that any little incident was going to be bad news. I don’t think anyone blamed Owen for it, because it was obvious that something would have happened to Austin anyway next time he took a piledriver. Is that true?

SK reposted his Wrestlemania XV rant, which includes that line.

Dogg’s intros during this match were as awkward as a mullet discussion on Meltzer’s radio show (sorry, Cactusbix, but it’s that kinda show, and you were RIGHT THERE waiting to be targeted…). (He deserves the mocking anyway.) Poor Bix.

I thought Triple H's induction speech was really funny.

Her name is Mary Kate.

What about the fans would upset your wife?
