Mad Dog Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 J.R. does some stunningly competent commentary when he's on NXT. I liked the Ohno/Steamboat match. I dug the show quite a bit, think I'll tune in every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdw Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 The 80s and 90s are ancient history from a political standpoint. The Republicans who've traditionally done well in Connecticut are the moderate types that have been driven into extinction now that the teabaggers have taken over the nomination process at all levels. I'm guessing the part about the GOP holding the Gov's office from 1995-2010, a similar statewide race, flew by in that post. Â John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovert Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 According to Mike Johnson Ric Flair is dating Fifi the maid from the Flair from the Gold segments from 1993 WCW. Â Amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdw Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 From earlier this year:  http://rajah.com/base/node/27328  Ric just looks creepy old in that picture.  Her kids with Ric very recently posted on her FB page:  https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=101...e=3&theater  Given Ric's track record with women/wives, and that she has young kids... you sort of pray that the trainwreck that is Ric doesn't screw up her life something fierce.  John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjh Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Looks like Flair was already grooming wife number 5 before the divorce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan Waco Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 My favorite part of that pic is Carlos Colon - looking better than Flair frankly - appearing to be half asleep in the background Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLIK Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 I know fairly recently she's appeared at conventions and on a few indy shows but up until then had she ever done anything in wrestling after her run as Fifi or really anything in wrestling before getting the maid gig? For something that only lasted, what, a few months? She sure milked the heck out of that role... Â Besides standing around as background eye candy I don't even remember her doing much while she was in WCW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sek69 Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 My favorite part of that pic is Carlos Colon - looking better than Flair frankly - appearing to be half asleep in the background  I get WWC TV here and he's currently involved in an angle with Carlito who just turned heel. He's like the Puerto Rican Mick Foley now, guy known for violent brawls in the past now the chubby guy who comes out and waves to the crowd for a pop and get beaten up to get heat on whoever the next big heel is supposed to be.

rovert Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 Something to tick off the DVDR sleaze list. Davey Boy Smith and Tammy had relations: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 She always denied it, including in RF's most recent (and quite exploiting) shoot in which she said she alwyas lied her ass off in shoot interviews except on this one. Oh, Tammy... The only thing you can hope for her with the latest ordeals is that she gets things together, get the hell far away from anything wrestling related and doesn't drop dead before she's 45, really. (gotta love Sean making fun of the "Hart Family Handshake" though...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Man, the nervous tic she was showing in that video was quite worrisome, considering it tends to be a symptom of long term drug use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffey Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 No offense, but does anyone give a fuck about Tammy Sytch? Why do they keep putting her on camera? I can't imagine her Shoots sell like hotcakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 I really want to enjoy the Daniel Bryan/Kane dynamic. It's amusing most of the time and I like how they play off of each other but they really need to cut back on the airtime they get. I think a segment, maybe 2 a show would be more than enough to keep that storyline healthy. When they're getting 3 or 4 segments a show, it starts to get tedious. Â Also, David Otunga sucks, I mean really sucks. I'm having a hard time thinking of someone on the roster that's worse than him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laney Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 I don't really follow the WWE that much, but I gave the edited Raw that popped up on Hulu a watch. I thought the Kane/Daniel Bryan diner promos were bad. The video didn't seem to be shot very well and Daniel Bryan puking seemed really corny and badly acted. Although, I did read that several of these promos aired during Raw and apparently the best one was cut out for Hulu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 It has it's moments, like on Smackdown Damian Sandow came out and called them a bunch of names and Daniel Bryan gave Kane a confused look and asked him off mic "Us?" And things like Sandow wrestling Kane and bumping into Bryan and he yells "I am the Tag Team Champions" was funny. It really has good moments and they have good chemistry. They're just watering it down with too many segments. Â Was the Hulu version of Raw worth the time? I like it being cut down to 90 minutes. Did it feel like a full show and were there matches present? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khawk20 Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 http://www.ebay.com/itm/1974-1970s-Vintage...=item27cb0ac3ea  These two match films are "new" as far as I know. Both are matchups that there is no film or video for that I can recall coming across.  These are the two cards the matches are from, courtesy of Clawmasters results archive:  7/10/74 Davenport, IA @ John O'Donnell Stadium AWA Tag Team Champions Nick Bockwinkel & Ray Stevens beat Billy Robinson & Geoff Portz Ivan Putski beat Baron Von Raschke Chris Taylor beat Larry Heiniemi Larry Hennig beat Bull Bullinski  12/26/74 Moline, IL @ Wharton Field House Nick Bockwinkel beat Larry Hennig Ivan Putski beat Baron Von Raschke Greg Gagne & Jim Brunzell beat Yugo Babich & Boris Breznikoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laney Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 I think watching it on Hulu is worth it if you don't want to invest 3 hours of your time in watching the show and don't really care about missing out on anything. Unfortunately there were some things cut that I would have liked to see.  Here is the list of things they cut out:  * The backstage segment with Brad Maddox and AJ Lee  * Kofi Kingston vs. Dolph Ziggler  * The first diner segment with Kane and Daniel Bryan  * Santino Marella & Zack Ryder vs. Darren Young & Titus O’Neil  * The backstage segment that set up the six-man match and the entrances to that match  * Tyson Kidd vs. Wade Barrett  * Layla and Alicia Fox vs. Eve Torres and Beth Phoenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 So? They edited out all the matches and left all the talking in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laney Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Basically it had all the in-ring promos, a few of the backstage vignettes, Miz vs Ryback, Tensai vs Brodus, and the 6-man tag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 I might skip it then. That's not how I want them to edit Raw down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
