I found Bayley directing traffic before the match so that she could do her pose in the side of the ring Sasha and the ref were in kind of amusing. That just brought it to mind. Sasha was very agreeable to that.

Vince would love ol' Johnny. Salt of the Earth. Target Audience.

The moment that the internet gave Hunter a fruit basket was the night the line was crossed.
-
In the set up promo to the Sasha vs Bayley stuff it bugged me a bit how much they hyped being the best at "woman's wrestling" instead of just wrestling, if that made sense. It didn't seem real to their characters.
-
Also, they can make a delineation on screen. Sasha giving Izzy her flowers is okay. Them showing it as part of the live special would not be not ok. Them showing it on a backstage special is maybe ok. The curtain call was okay. Them showing it on a backstage special was probably okay. Them showing it on the live special was probably not ok.

I would have bitched if they had showed Sasha giving Izzy the flowers. What they did show, I was okay with.

Maybe he heard Ray Stevens tell it once. -
The Beginner's Guide To British Wrestling

I haven't been posting about it but I've been working my way through things lately. A few Zoltan Boscik matches. A bunch of Cortez. Liberal amounts of breaks. I'm just getting a sense of things still. -

I watched the 26 min Jones vs Finlay match last week. I'm ready to watch some more Jones now. -
I'm super high on the finishing stretch of the main but as a whole, it might have been overly ambitious. In general, I agree with Will. Some great moments. Not nearly as strong a total package as their last match. The heeling on Izzy was really striking. All that said, the post match stuff was one of those things WWE does so well. They made it feel like an unquestionable success. Sasha collapsing was a way more emotional moment than the horsewomen thing to me.

I know that Bayley has watched the Rude ones from the 90s and that's the most distinct spot.

Observer HOF prediction/ballot question thread
Matt D replied to dkookypunk43's topic in Megathread archive
Usually (as much as I hate the fact) I don't think that the work you guys do moves the needle too much. Here, though? Colon seems like he just needs a few more votes, so maybe it's enough. -
I predict that Sasha is going to get intentionally dq'd in order to pick up a fall.
-
Jerry Jarrett in the 90s was basically a mercenary. It's in his nature.
-
You guys basically need to settle all of this by having Chris Harrington be in charge of attendance numbers.
-
I want to see Chris talk about Sting
-
They're ironic heels. They were mocking Cena's genuine nature and his charity work?
-
I will admit that I am missing the daily uploads. Got spoiled.

Between The Sheets #11: (September 29-October 5, 1996)

Kris needs to lose his voice so I can play catch up. -
I forgot about Ziggler trying to get the crowd to call Bryan names.
-
Smackdown would have definitely been in better shape if Bryan was still here.

TNA Bound for Glory Thread.... because I hate life
Matt D replied to goodhelmet's topic in Pro Wrestling
This was really good. Great escalation within the rounds and within the match itself. I wonder if the finish is better or worse than many TNA finishes that you're watching tonight though. -

I'm going to watch some more Jon Cortez on youtube instead. -
I thought the Valentine vs Brody stuff was really interesting too and that he got more out of Brody than most people usually do.
-
I remember thinking that Robinson and Jumbo were like an old married couple bickering and I enjoyed it for that. But I also can't back that up on my memory either.
