Migs Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 Isn't that how it usually goes, a flurry of uploads then nothing for a few months? They've been pretty good about having at least one big dump per month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 I do wish they'd dump stuff a bit more evenly throughout the month, you feel like you get a ton of stuff one week and then it goes barren for a little while. I mean, sure, you get more than enough to last the whole month, but I think if it was distributed a bit differently it would feel like a constant stream of things coming out. Anyway, they uploaded Episode 41 of Tuesday Night Titans last night. I don't know if that's a signifier that they'll be finishing off the run or not though, since it's one of three shows that were skipped during the original drop, rather than from the last batch (the final year or so). EDIT: They've uploaded a pile more TNT, so there's the answer. Although the sequence currently goes "53, 55, 56, 54, 57", with 56 and 54 both listed as November 1st, 1985.

sek69 Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 Did the legal wrangling over the old Superstars of Wrestling shows ever get straightened out? It would be neat if that ends up as a content dump at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be neat if that ends up as a content dump at some point. Not going by the superstars matches featured on prime time wrestling on the network. The blue banner is blurred.Now it could be that the episodes weren't changed post 2012 WWF agreement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyonthewall2983 Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 In a couple episodes of PTW that date from early 1987, the Superstars Of Wrestling stuff was unblurred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyonthewall2983 Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Honestly, at least as it concerns Prime Time I don't mind the blurring as much. Not as bad as when they were blurring Attitude Era stuff, where the scratch logo was pretty much on everything that wasn't nailed down.

The only gripe I have with Raw's from 2000 is no more Attitude Extra segments after the broadcast. Really wanted to see the Earl Hebner People's Elbow on Vince.

C.S. Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 Table for 3 with Jim Cornette, Eric Bischoff, and Michael PS Hayes was the best episode of that show ever, by a country mile. It's just a shame that an obviously much longer conversation got cut down to 19 minutes. I kinda wish Vince Russo would get back into WWE's good graces, at least as a "talking head," so he can appear on these sorts of things. I know there was new footage of him shot for the Monday Night War series and a couple of other things, but not much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Thread Killer Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 I kinda wish Vince Russo would get back into WWE's good graces, at least as a "talking head," so he can appear on these sorts of things. What?! No. Just... No. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Thread Killer Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 Thankfully, it appears recently Russo tried to mend that fence and Vince is not having any of it... Vince Russo said during a YouTube interview with Fightful that he reached out to Vince McMahon regarding a possible return to WWE over the past week.McMahon actually answered his former chief writer, although the WWE patriarch wasn't wordy with his response...Russo wasn't exactly clear where he stood with McMahon, but it seems he won't be making a dramatic WWE comeback any time soon. When asked if his one-time employer seemed receptive to a return, Russo said that Vince "never seems receptive".

C.S. Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 What?! No. Just... No. You wouldn't love a Table For 3 with Russo? The other two could be Bischoff and let's say AJ Styles for the hell of it because they have to put someone random in there who is kinda, sorta linked to both guys.

Credit: WhatCulture.com Because Russo comes across like a complete out of touch ass now. His trolling about Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, etc. - which I doubt he really believes, but still - makes him seem like a relic of a bygone era. Still, with all the other assholes who get Network interviews, "talking head" segments, Table For 3 appearances, etc., Russo should too. The heat he has with others would make for entertaining viewing in that format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMJ Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 I've found Russo to be insufferable on the podcast circuit over the past few years. Like, I know WWE weekly TV hasn't been my cup of tea for years now, but his ideas to make it better are actually even less likely to bring me back (shorter matches, more gimmicks to make us care about Seth Rollins). For me at least, Austin's two-cents and, oddly enough, the things Nash, Hall, and XPac posit are far more basic and general, but more sensible and intriguing (Seth Rollins should be Bret Hart - no comedy, just mechanics and fighting spirit, let Owens talk even more trash and highlight that as his "thing," keep AJ at the top because he is the best guy they have, don't worry so much about Roman and just keep giving him fresh opponents - heel or face - cuz he's money either way). Russo wants to blow up the product and that's dumb. It didn't work for WCW either time he was in control and they were way worse off than WWE is now. The sensible thing to do is to see what works and keep doing those things (Braun/Reigns or Charlotte's RAW run, for example) and see what's not working and fix those things (Rollins not being definable as a character) . A complete renovation, as Russo often espouses, is exactly why he doesn't deserve a seat at McMahons table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Thread Killer Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 I am opposed to Vince Russo being invited back to WWE for talk segments etc. because it legitimizes him and gives him a platform. There would be those who think that simply because he is appearing on the WWE Network, he must be worthy of such an opportunity to be heard, and even worse, some people would listen to what he says. Every time he opens his mouth, ridiculous bullshit comes spewing out - lies, distortions, obvious contradictions, idiotic justifications for indefensible and moronic decisions, perversions of logic and general nonsense. After he stops talking, nobody is ever the better for having listened to him. The man contributes nothing to any discussion. He contributes less then nothing. He contributes negative nothing, which creates a vortex into which an otherwise constructive or entertaining dialogue would be sucked, thereby suffocating it to death. The only way I would ever want to see Vince Russo on any sort of televised broadcast, would be if he was placed on trial for crimes against Professional Wrestling. The prosecutor would be Jim Cornette, Russo's defense attorney would be Disco Inferno, and all wrestling fans would be the jury. And once he was convicted, his sentence would have to be permanent censure and banishment. No more podcasts, no more interviews, no more DVD commentaries, no more books. He would have to go away, and stay gone, for all time, never to be spoken of again, except as a cautionary tale. That is something I would watch.

fakeplastictrees Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 Vince Russo being back in WWE, even for Table for 3 type of things, is dangerous for a lot of reasons. However, With WWE setting the pro wrestling narrative going forward (at least in America), why not have a different opinion and outlook chime in? Its really interesting the balance between keeping crazy out of WWE and giving the crazy a platform that will allow for the expansion of ideas and conversation. Conversation is a major mechanism humans use to improve stupidity. I feel pro wrestling modernist believe in dialogue (though not overly enthused in some cases). We believe that different groups can discuss differences in a civilized manner and come to a resolution in some-shape-or-form. However, the pro wrestling post modernist are not so welcoming to alternative viewpoints. With that said, I still think Russo is dangerous because he is one of those 'challenge the facts' people which creates 'alternative facts' talking points. Again, this comes back to being in work mode 24/7/365. If Russo is willing to be honest--I would be more than happy to hear him, but if its the carny bullshit that has been spewed out over the years---no thank you! If Russo did come back, Vince would put him on 205 Live to 'shake things up'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
