rovert Posted September 7, 2012 Report Posted September 7, 2012 It would be too strong say Regal has a problem with people saying it but he has been pointing out that Marty Jones and Mark Rocco innovated the Junior Heavyweight style not Dynamite Kid and Tiger Mask whenever it gets brought up. He did it on the podcast and a number of times on Twitter - even correcting Lance Storm on it. Seems to be a real pet peeve.
ohtani's jacket Posted September 7, 2012 Report Posted September 7, 2012 He has a point. Rocco and Jones 70s matches are massively ahead of their time.
rovert Posted September 7, 2012 Report Posted September 7, 2012 He has a point. Rocco and Jones 70s matches are massively ahead of their time. That's the tweet I was referring to: https://twitter.com/Storm_Wrestling/status/...309693778206720 He really seems to put those two meeting on a pedestal as an evolutionary moment in the Wrestling. Rather obviously he watches and rewatches a lot of Wrestling.
Loss Posted September 8, 2012 Author Report Posted September 8, 2012 Wow, I leave the country for vacation and this happens? Biggest news of the year!
tim Posted September 8, 2012 Report Posted September 8, 2012 loses feud, cuts hair. trips is really dedicated to that sort of medieval warrior king motif he had going on.
flyonthewall2983 Posted September 9, 2012 Report Posted September 9, 2012 Must feel weird to move your head around after having it the same length for as long as he did.
cm funk Posted September 10, 2012 Report Posted September 10, 2012 Is DVDVR down for everybody again?
Dylan Waco Posted September 10, 2012 Report Posted September 10, 2012 Yep. Looks like it might be getting moved to a new server
Death From Above Posted September 11, 2012 Report Posted September 11, 2012 Hopefully that's what it is. The longer it is down the more it looks like someone pushed the big red button marked DO NOT PRESS. But it is a pretty big forum and I have no idea how long that kind of a transfer would take.
jackwebb Posted September 13, 2012 Report Posted September 13, 2012 This link worked today so good sign http://deathvalleydriver.com/dvdvr/dvdvr158.html
goc Posted September 14, 2012 Report Posted September 14, 2012 The site has always been working. It's just the board that's been down for what seems like forever now. Wish someone that likely knows what is up *cough* Phil Schneider *cough* would give some kinda update.
khawk20 Posted September 14, 2012 Report Posted September 14, 2012 Quick question...when was the earliest known use of an earpiece by a referee in a wrestling match? The 90's? Earlier?
Phil Schneider Posted September 14, 2012 Report Posted September 14, 2012 The site has always been working. It's just the board that's been down for what seems like forever now. Wish someone that likely knows what is up *cough* Phil Schneider *cough* would give some kinda update. I don't know much more then you guys. Servers need to be switched, and Rippa is on it.
Death From Above Posted September 14, 2012 Report Posted September 14, 2012 I actually thought you guys had a catastrophic server failure victimize you with the weird errors that last 4 (?) days or so, but today it is spitting out ye olde IPS Driver errors again, which, in a sense, is actually promising. It probably means the whole forum didn't get eaten and the whole thing lost. Which would suck.
Matt D Posted September 14, 2012 Report Posted September 14, 2012 If we lost the board data then I would have made Dylan recreate my AWA Disc ratings for me.
Johnny Sorrow Posted September 14, 2012 Report Posted September 14, 2012 Check this out. In a huge marketing mistake...it only comes in small and medium. http://universalwrestling.com/mm5/merchant...gory_Code=MERCH
Guest Nell Santucci Posted September 14, 2012 Report Posted September 14, 2012 Wow, I leave the country for vacation and this happens? Biggest news of the year! I suspect this will be HHH's front office look. I also suspect his last match will be at next year's Wrestlemania.
Loss Posted September 14, 2012 Author Report Posted September 14, 2012 We should all try to remember where we were when HHH cut off his ponytail. We can tell our grandchildren about it.
Guest Nell Santucci Posted September 14, 2012 Report Posted September 14, 2012 We should all try to remember where we were when HHH cut off his ponytail. We can tell our grandchildren about it. You read his mind. Is Triple H going to pull an Undertaker at the Survivor Series? LOL. . .division of labor is very important.

Dean posted on Facebook that it would be back up next week.
goc Posted September 15, 2012 Report Posted September 15, 2012 Awesome. Thanks for the update, and at least it doesn't seem like anything is going to be lost.
Chess Knight Posted September 15, 2012 Report Posted September 15, 2012 I don't have an account there, but it's good news for me because I've missed Dean's MOTYC thread the past few days. It's not as dorky as it sounds.
FLIK Posted September 15, 2012 Report Posted September 15, 2012 Been watching a few matches from the NJPW vs WAR feud in 92/93 & it's a little hard to make out what the heirarchy is on the WAR side. After Tenryu who was considered the #2 & 3 heavyweight guys on the pecking order thear?
Dylan Waco Posted September 16, 2012 Report Posted September 16, 2012 Does anybody here have a link to the epic Andersons for HoF debate that took place on Classics years ago? I'm not talking about the "Ole Anderson bitterest man alive" thread but rather the other thread where a bunch of results and other things were tossed out and debated. John, Bix, anyone?
Kevin Ridge Posted September 16, 2012 Report Posted September 16, 2012 Going to Night of the Champions tonight in person. I haven't been to a wrestling show since 2005. I don't even watch WWE TV. I'll catch most of the PPV's on delay but that's usually it for my WWE viewing. Don't even know the card outside of Punk/Cena (which should be interesting as far as a crowd perspective). So I'm going in blind for the most party but hopefully it's a good show. My seats are pretty good too.
