Matt D Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 On my trek through Mid-South (any of you watching it weekly on justin.tv too?)Matt why do you constantly torture me by mentioning cool territory stuff that is apparently on justin.tv that I can never find when I look there? Because I have weekly routines based around this crap!... and have for the last year + I think. www.justin.tv/mistyskin/videos/ Friday Nights (and archived until Tues or Weds): 1980 memphis TV Saturday Nights (and archived until Weds or Thurs): 1985 Mid South (2 eps), 1987 Pro Wrestling This Week 2 eps, and 1985 Crockett (WW, SN, WW). There's also 1986 (I think) Prime Time Wrestling mid week, but... it's not quite the same. There's also www.justin.tv/projectsunfire/ but that's way more scattershot.

Coffey Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 www.justin.tv/mistyskin/videos/This is incredible. I know what I'm doing the rest of the night! Thanks a lot, man.

El-P Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 KC Timeline of the WWF 1997 with Jim Cornette is unsurprisingly pretty great. Cornette doesn't go off as much as you'd think, although Kevin Dunn and Vince Russo do take some funny verbal abuse. Very interesting inside view on the insanity that was WWF in 1997, and it only reminds me how great and interesting this year was. Cornette also makes it obvious that the WWF basically lucked up onto getting back to success, things happened that weren't planned or predictable.

Matt D Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 I frigging love Cornette commenting on Lawler vs Sweetan on the wrestling gold set. I haven't seen it in maybe 7 years and I know a heck of a lot more about Lawler now. He just goes on about how brilliant and perfect everything Lawler does in the match is and how the crowd's responding and Dave sort of half grumbles in reluctant agreement and points out how bad Sweetan's being again.

sek69 Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 Lucha Libre USA is coming back to MTV2 for another season on Oct. 1 at 10am, set your DVRs. Also I just now realized that Rebecca Reyes from here is Matt Hardy's girlfriend working under her SHOOT NAME~! Bet now she's wishing she stayed with Mini Halloween (referring to the last season of LLUSA which I'm sure no one here watched). The promo photo on their website is fucking fantastic btw: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjh Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 I agree it's silly to pack on the pounds for a retirement show and then have to diet to shed them all off again, but I suppose this isn't too unusual in Japan with the sumo culture.

kjh Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Flair was thrown off the top, bumped for Sting's clotheslines and did the Flair flop. He was huffing and puffing a lot and had to take his time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Flair vs Sting was sad at the last Nitro, 10 years ago. I can't even fathom how pathetic it is in 2011. Retire already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subatomic_elbow Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 I have felt sad to be a wrestling fan a handful of times. The Sting/Flair match on TNA was the worst that didn't involve anyone being raped or dying. That I had to add a caveat of 'not being raped or dying' also makes me sad.

JerryvonKramer Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Just watched this. Why did I? On the one hand, Flair took a suplerplex. On the other, he looks like death warmed up and this ended up being all about Hogan anyway. He should have retired in 2008. He had the perfect send off. I'm going to pretend his TNA run isn't happening and never happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjh Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 The superplex spot was really the saddest moment of the match. No way should he be taking such a dangerous bump at age 62 on a bad shoulder. Given the reports of how bad the match was, it wasn't as bad as I was expecting, though that's probably thanks to the magic of editing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El-P Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Flair looks like he's about to die. I can't believe this shit is on TV and people are actually paid to put this crap together. This stuff was old and had overstayed its welcome 13 years ago, and Flair, Hogan and Sting are still on TV along with Bischoff, while Russo writes the show. TNA is the worst promotion ever.

jdw Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 I think Sting looked mediocre in it, but having an old man as an opponent distracted me from spending the whole match paying attention to Sting. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovert Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 I know his passion for wrestling gets questioned for time to time but Dave waxing lyrical about Memphis Heat and Memphis in general was great stuff on the breaking news Rock audio.

goodhelmet Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Just listened to it today but nothing that the people who worked on the Memphis set didn't already know. If I thought he would actually watch it, I wouldn't hesitate to send Dave a Memphis set. Then again, I know he wouldn't watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 I think Sting looked mediocre in it, but having an old man as an opponent distracted me from spending the whole match paying attention to Sting. John Sting's had some solid work this year. This is probably the worst thing he's been involved in this year. At least with the Jeff Hardy match you got to watch Sting just manhandle him.
