Darsow is a perfect poor man's Kernoodle.

I can't imagine Fritz and Bad News getting along. He sure as hell isn't going to like putting over the Von Erichs and giving them offense all the time.

Have you guy all seen this? It's only a few minutes of action but it's well worth watching. I think this is different than the other andre vs bock footage that's been on youtube for years.

I don't think Koko was a bad pick by any means. There are some guys I think are more valuable, even to Kris, right now, but Koko just has huge upside.

Are you more willing to job Saito than Tully?

I think despite his call for "Value", Parv is leaning towards his own personal favorites and rationalizing them after the fact.

There is a private message chat going on with every Canadian promotion to do a lot of joint things. Info coming soon. That one makes perfect sense, since we area all; socialist pigs. Keith Hart is the key to breaking western Canada. Which is the first time Keith Hart had ever been the key to anything.

Blanchard obviously has a bone to pick suddenly with Fritz. Tearing his family apart.

I call that the Brody Principle.

I'd say that I'd take over the Florida territory after RocketCrypt dies in 1985 but I don't even want to pretend to be Mike Graham

I would suggest you look at things not just as a game, but also as a shared storytelling/writing device, not as a competition so much as just an ability to create and enjoy yourself with like-minded individuals. In that regard, while somewhat morbid, it'd be amusing to see how people deal with death and injuries and what not (there's so much distance here and we've looked at fantasy booking scenarios and what ifs and what not for so long...). The knowledge can be built into a plus and the way that people deal with it relative to how it was dealt with real life could be interesting. It doesn't need to be about "winning" so much as creating a fun, crazy shared experience, no? I think there's plenty of room for competitiveness in there too.

I am completely against great match theory. Shawn had way more great matches, I will admit that. By "Great Match Theory' Shawn is better, but I am anti-Great Match Theory, just like Matt D. A very very dysfunctional school of philosophy.

My keen advice has been shut out completely due to a pick that was made from a guy I don't even know. I understand the notion though, but I'm feeling like Fall 96 Sting here. I'm being confused for Jeff Farmer.

Is any version of Kimchee active in 1983? I know one is in 84.

He's very versatile:

Wahoo is another one of those great "1983" picks.

I feel like Tully is a little like Rose in that he can also be the leader of a heel group instead of a manager.

I'm not convinced that Michaels' 92-93 is all that better than Austin's 91-92 to be honest. I think it is better. I just don't think it was all that better. The ten minute TV title match format helped Austin and I think he had a lot more featured matches on TV because of it.

I'm very curious who will get Jimmy Valiant. I think his value in 83-84 is such that he probably should have gone already.

VJM now missing ear. News at 11.

Poorly edited rumblings abound over what might happen if someone other than WWF drafted one or both of the Wild Samoans and they refused to drop the belts on the way out.

I was kind of hoping that Kamala was going to end up somewhere weird.

I could see heel dynamite as part of a tag team in Florida.

This is frankly more than any non-ohioan should ever know about Ohio, let alone a non-american.

Akron, OH - Physical Education Building is the Hokkaido of 1983.
