    The Good: The Dallas Ten Man The Bad: WM and KOTR sucking during such a hot time
  2. Bigelow34
    And yes this was the first one.

    Watching Hogan for our 2002 VVs was a revelation... I loved all of his big matches.

    On a very special edition of The Steve Corino Show, Steve sits down with WWE Hall of Famer, Greg The Hammer Valentine, to discuss his legendary career. Highlights of this truly monumental interview include Valentine’s epic feuds with the likes of Wahoo McDaniel and Rowdy Roddy Piper as well as his true feelings for his former tag team partner, Brutus Beefcake. He also tells the story of how he almost won the WWF Championship. http://placetobenation.com/the-steve-corino-show-episode-14-greg-the-hammer-valentine/

    Well I would have been right if it weren't for the 128K that cancelled! That wasn't included in the guess!

    From what I have gathered on Twitter so far - Subscriber numbers at 700,000 at end of Q2 - Loss of $14.5M for Q2 - New offer: $19.99 if you want to just sign up for the month - WWE Network coming to Canada, Australia, NZ, Spain and a lot more countries on 8/12 - WWE Network coming to UK in October - WWE announced 10 year deal with Rogers for Raw & SD

    Hah, I thought he was being sarcastic, joking Kevin at first and then realized, oh shit, this is real.

    I voted Vince... He has the voice and inflection/cadance, he has the intimate knowledge of every wrestler and storyline that he was booking and pushing so nobody knew who and what needed to be pushed more than him. He was a great straight man for Jesse, Bobby, King, Perfect, etc. He could sell big time moments and was just about as vital to his promotion in 1994-1997 as anyone else. His commentary helped make Bret, Michaels, Austin and others seem big during a very down time. His call at Wm13 for Bret/Austin was fantastic and has had just as many memorable soundbytes as anyone else as well. The only thing he lacked at times was calling moves out and in ring psychology (best left to the color guy anyway), but that wasn't listed in the criteria. Vince 4 Life!

    Yeah this. I think of all the crap I spend $10/month on and this is a layup decision for me. I do agree that CoD was awesome... too bad those subscription numbers sucked... Those HOF shows were great and I loved the format, very similar to those old NBA HOF/Greatest Games shows, I am surprised they don't air those at all.
  11. Bigelow34
    Glad you enjoy!
  12. Bigelow34
    Was he wrong?
  13. Bigelow34
    Agreed... We were up against the clock so I left it alone but I will probably bring it back up next episode again because I disagree on Ambrose.
  14. Bigelow34
    I still can't figure out why, but I have always felt Austin/Rock at X7 is overrated. It has nothing to do with the finish, it is just I always feel SOMETHING is lacking when I watch it and I don't know what it is.

    The Kevin Kelly Show Episode 13 – Featuring Mike Mondo

    Growing up a WWF hardcore fan, Fink will always be my answer. I did enjoy GMC as a kid as well and my appreciation of him has only grown. Anyone remember the dude that randomly did WWF shows in 1995? I am blanking on his name...Manny Garcia? He came and went so quickly... anyone know why Fink was bumped during that year? Was it just part of them trying to mix things up so much? In case anyone hasn't heard it before, GMC chatted with me, Scott and Graham Cawthon a couple of years ago and gave us a long interview with some really cool stories from his career http://placetobenation.com/place-to-be-podcast-episode-121-gary-michael-cappetta/

    In this episode of the Place to Be Podcast, Justin and Scott head into the Vintage Vault for Survivor Series 2002. So fire up this action-packed episode and join Scott and Justin because it is time for another edition of the PTB Podcast! http://placetobenation.com/place-to-be-podcast-episode-320-survivor-series-2002/
  18. Bigelow34
    Haha, yeah, got a little weird for a bit.

    On episode 12 of The Kevin Kelly Show, Kevin talks about achieving his ultimate goal of calling the action on pay-per-view at ROH Best in the World. Justin shares his thoughts on the event and the guys preview WWE Money in the Bank this weekend. Kevin is then joined by “The First Lady of ROH,” Maria Kanellis who chats about her wrestling and modeling career along with her endless wedding planning with her fiance, Mike Bennett. She also touches on her current acting projects and a possible move to the Ocean State? Kevin and Justin then discuss the greatest factions in wrestling history, play a game of wrestling urban legend sleaze thread “true or false” and also speculate on the futures of Lebron James, Carmelo Anthony, the prospects in the NBA Draft, World Cup talk and much more! http://placetobenation.com/the-kevin-kelly-show-episode-12-featuring-maria-kanellis-2/

    I just have so many VHS that I recorded live, so there is sentimental value (knowing what each tape and case looks like, what is on each tape) of a defunct era and also because I have a bunch of stuff that is unedited and as originally aired, which is cool.
  21. Bigelow34
    Corino is such an awesome dude. So down to earth and super nice. He does a really good job and is honest and open, like you said. I love his passion for wrestling too, he watches and loves it as a fan.
  22. Bigelow34
    I will sum that up for you as well: Angry Chad is the Scrooge of wrestling watching!
  23. Bigelow34
    Yes I still do, although the Network has curbed it. I own more VCRs than I would like to admit... I started converting stuff last year and need to get back at it.
  24. Bigelow34
    Haha nooooooooooooooooo (Although for some reason my boy Grimmas always pops in my head for any talk about Shawn Michaels). Chad did a great job on the spot.
  25. Bigelow34
    Thanks! I am looking forward to 2003 in the way I looked forward to 1995... lots of material to work with. Sometimes when the shows are really good, the shows can be tough to do since you can only gush so much. It is good to have things to debate for sure. Booker was SUPER over at this point...I didn't remember him being this hot.
