Matt D

Inventors?

The worst is when he does the other person's voice. "So, what about this? we should do this, right?" Then he goes "Noooo," in the most petulant, patronizing voice possible and it's the bitchiest thing ever. He's creating his own mental morons in his head. It's just unsettling to listen to.

Slater'll come out soon as Clem.

I thought Kelly Kelly was actually fairly over at times, for what it's worth. It's not like she was Ashley or anything.

But are you calling them equally as useless as Kelly Kelly?

Obviously they're releasing a bunch of guys today to put up a smokescreen to distract from the Dunn/HHH feud getting out. Obviously.

The only one that's even barely worth listening to is the Gail Kim one, because he seems almost awestruck of her and especially so of her husband. The toadying is insane.

Bonnema always carried more of a family feel to me. You felt like you were part of the neighborhood or something.

I thought they did give some profit margins and what not and the million was US only. One thing Meltzer brings up all the time is that we don't know how many people currently are foreign subscribers and a lot of the most eager people probably found a way to subscribe.

84 AWA needed a Greg Gagne heel turn. I love Mid South in 84, with Dundee coming in and heating up the booking. It's got the Mr. Wrestling II heel run and the RnRs and Midnights coming in. There's something pretty special about JCP in 1985 too, with the rise of Magnum and advent of the Horsemen. ECW in 2009 was super enjoyable with Christian as the babyface Ace and a good mix of old and new talent. Portland in 1979 is over the top with Roddy and Martel as the babyfaces and Rose and the Sheepherders as probably the most iconic version of the army. WCW from fall 91 to summer 1992 with a million Dangerous Alliance matches given away and Pillman vs Liger and Steamboat returning and Dustin coming into his own, etc.

Ding, ding on Paige. Her act in NXT was that she was a badass post-apocalyptic warrior. Now she's a shrinking violet. And they changed absolutely moronic things about Rose's act, like how they emphasize the fans singing the music instead of shouting the "hey"and timing his jump with it. I couldn't figure out why the hell they would possibly do that. But yeah, Dunn sabotage makes way more sense than anything I could come up with. It might explain why they didn't go with the 5 Count on Big E too.

And hey, either it goes well or the internet will be hilarious to watch. Win, win.

He's the sort of guy that is hurt a lot by 2x a week, competitive matches I think.

Occasionally, I think likes should be enabled. Then I think better of it.

Again, not a top guy but if Haynes didn't take his ball and go home, how high do you think his WWF run might have gone?

I'm torn. I still think the way this works best is as Triple H's apprentice and you kind of need the long hair and facial hair for that, or at least the long hair, but he should probably sell out and totally go corporate by cutting the hair, shaving etc. Being in a suit most of the time and what have you. I also think he should start working like a dick and tease dives but not do them and do a bunch of leverage stuff and what have you.

In that case shouldn't they put a 20 minute preview or what not?

And he's a Freebird. What's your excuse?

We're running with "Cerebral Architect"

Internet tone problems. I wasn't kidding. The way I minimize my tedium should have an appreciation course in a college somewhere.

The way I navigate through the bureaucratic bullshit in the day to day existence of my job is absolutely art.

They only seem to run one house show at a time on Fridays. They're in Providence on the 20th. There's your date.

Well if you are going to have someone portray a farmyard rooster....

I really think they should have done a network special one night tournament to crown the champion, with Rollins getting a first round bye (and maybe bracketed vs. the winner of Reigns vs Ambrose). Then do MITB as a normal PPV. That's how you get people to buy the network.

We call you pretentious, absolutely, but that's only because my write up on Bock vs Hennig broadway is lost in the ether of the internet.
