  1. Just out of curiosity, has anyone ever asked Wade about the Jericho stuff? And if so, what was his response? He denies it but to this day Wade preferences any praise of Jericho with "a lot people think I give Jericho a hard time but."
  2. Anyone ever hear the Bobby Heenan story that WCW format sheets we never stapled correctly so the announcers didnt know which page was next etc? I dont know why but that totally bemuses me.
  3. Typical Bryan though he waited until his subscribers stopped bitching about it to do it.
  4. I hope Wade sues over the design.
  5. Anyone watch this yet? It really underscores that they waited too long to put a DVD out. Despite it doing an admirable job covering his career given time constraints. They rushed over his pre-WWE career a bit too quickly: More or less skipping his Japan stint (lack or footage or not) Glossing over his feud with Malenko in favour of the schticky bits (1,004 holds & conspiracy victim) and the Goldberg non-feud. John Morrison and Evan Bourne are pure lameo as talking heads on otherwise a pretty choice selection of talking heads. Jericho wanted to call The Highlight Reel Jericho's Junction! Anyway the documentary is a really good production regardless.
  6. I wonder which Special Guest referee slot the story ends at?
  7. Lets hope it is as good as the Jesse Ventura story.
  8. Larry and Cary are good friends apparently too. The plot thickens.
  9. You have to put that in the context that the Rock regards Pro Wrestling & MMA as the same "biz" etc. Wow, Bret in the ring. Paul Bearer on SD! This is a good week for feel-good fandemonium. Bret looks like he's having a great time in there. Bret moving out of the way at the last second after being held near the ropes made me weep with old school joy.
  10. Lock the Dragon Gate next time! DG ran a show in Japan without the ring before didnt they?
  11. The conversation took a funny turn there all I was saying is that the Southern style is house show style take to the nth degree.
  12. Dont you mean boy robot - Credit CM Punk
  13. This guy has clips of the match, the crowd goes INSANE: http://www.youtube.com/user/MrReggie216 The tribute ceremony in full: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZBo540jFzY AKA why WWE show have a developmental in Louisville and/or Memphis
  14. Yes, the Rock would have been an MMA star:
  15. Sal(?) their DVD production guy his enroled in college and/or there was a problem in the recording of those shows is the rumour.

    WON 2010

    Shingo and Davey Richards for the HOF?
  17. Gabe has been harping on about how strong the ROH brand is as a "excuse" recently. All that and ROH deep discounting DVDs having 2 for 3 sales seemingly every week.

    WON 2010

    Worth noting that Heyman did a major, major hype job for Albano shortly after his death on WORadio.

  21. On a related note are this weekend's Dragon Gate shows going to tank hard?

    WON 2010

    I'd think anyone who opens a thread titled "WON 2010" has a reasonable expectation that they might see the inductees. They are listed on wikipedia anyway. Aye just that some people take the issue seriously and look forward to it. Steve Williams came SO close. Does anyone think Dave should have put him in or should he be a total stickler here? My major disappointment was that Kent Walton didn’t get in despite being pimped as a slam dunk candidate. Rey & Jericho going in together is interesting considering the traditional reluctance of voting active performs.
  24. And bless him for it. He looks relatively slim in this grainy pic of his return: http://i52.tinypic.com/2ia8msw.jpg He had a gastric bypass a few years back. The last photo I saw of him was at one of those conventions where he looked slimmer but had loose skin that made his neck look like a vagina. Im aware of the surgery as he has done a tonne of interviews and had it paid by WWE so he could come back for WM20. But when I last saw him it seemed that he put back on a lot of weight since his wife passed away.
