  1. Then it'll probably be Dylan arguing that Jimmy Rave and Kyle Matthews are the best AJPW workers of all time.
  2. I have a feeling this is going to be about Akiyama anyway.
  3. I can't wait to catch these two, Lucas, Spoiler, and David (even a young one) are all guys we don't have as much as we could of. Bruce, any idea how long the Bockwinkel vs Ricky Morton match is? That's a brand new pairing and even though Ricky is probably a little big younger than when he reaches the real height of his powers, it's what I'm looking forward to the most so long as it gets some time.
  4. We already did that. We decided that this guy was really great:
  5. Matt D

    WWE TV April 18-24

    This may or may not be a thing now:
  6. I'm going to use this as a secret outlet to talk about the Berzerker in 1992.
  7. Or how Bossman uses his uppercut. Or Kane!
  8. Colon wasn't on my list because I asked Dylan how many PR guys he was going to rank and he said something like 1-2, and I just didn't have the time to heavily focus on a region just for a couple of guys. With endless time, he probably would have made it (and maybe Invader, maybe even Chicky).
  9. In the fourth installment of the Parejas Increibles Podcast, Stacey and Matt continue their trek across the International Date Line and through their GWE lists, this time soldiering on from 45-34, with Stacey as spirited about her picks as ever and Matt still making preposterous moral statements on life through specific placings.

  10. I wonder when Hogan will drop.
  11. You can find some Superstars and Mania and CV matches around if you use historyofwwe.com, dailymotion, and dig around enough, if you're really going for everything, not to mention the fancammed MSG cards.
  12. I have a weird feeling they're going to put Anderson and Gallows with Reigns.
  13. I was mostly kidding. I really like the Blackwell match, but it's a hell of a decline.
  14. I have 1-2 more that I might be the high vote on in my top 10. I know I'm not on Andre but that's not due to lack of trying.
  15. After that review, I'm definitely looking forward to this one. Will this be our best look at Ken Lucas in a tag setting ever?
  16. KVE, not better than Christian OR Virus!
  17. On the one hand, Virus was high on my list, massively high, and it was almost entirely a week-to-week footage over the span of the last five years thing. At one point towards the end I desperately asked people to try to make a case against him in his thread and no one said anything. On the other hand, I basically, all by myself, got him (and therefore another luchador) into the top one-hundred, so screw you all.
  18. And the top 15 managers poll we submitted alongside them? (I might just want to get my Bobby Davis avatar back)
  19. There are three or four different threads here. That guy tried to link them all and I was responding accordingly. I can understand why someone might link Benoit's style based brain damage with Misawa's style based physical damage but it's a lot to unpack and tying it to Colon in the same one paragraph post complicated matters.
  20. You get it. Colon is something of a historical relic. Benoit was hugely personal to almost all of us, the symbolic hero of the community, the person who we were furious at WCW for because they wouldn't acknowledge his fucking TV title reign. I can't speak for Misawa as in many ways he's a relic for me too but I imagine for others it's the combination of the personal, the years of religious celebration of the style that led to things, and the unspeakable details of the murders(and how much more detail we have relative to whatever Colon may or may not have done) that sets Benoit apart from him. It's one thing to not agree with it, but it's another not to "get" it.
  21. I was barely watching at all in 2007, Parv. It really wasn't a big deal for me after 2004 when I got back from England, and especially after January, 2006 when I moved to DC. The death happened within a few weeks of me moving in with my wife to be, so I was weaning off even more. When i started getting involved in wrestling again in 2009, it was primarily old school stuff, especially nostalgia WWF, and it was WWECW too since it was so different than what i was expecting and so engaging. It has a huge affect on me. It changed almost entirely how I look at wrestling.
  22. Great. Now do your best to forget it.
  23. It didn't really matter one way or the other. I had no desire to revisit him. Without the ability to revisit him, I couldn't rank him.
