Tony and Ashley's shoe just made this episide of Legends House the best one yet.

 

That was great, LOL, but the show itself keeps getting worse and worse IMO.

 

Who the hell thought it was good idea for them to go "LARPing" (live-action roleplaying). All of these stupid scenarios are just horrible, artificial, not entertaining, and just drag the show down. Maybe if the editing and pacing were better - quick highlights of the amusing moments (all of them getting pedicures and massages) and much less of the stupid bullshit (the rest of it) - it might be more tolerable.

 

The conflict so far has seemed really manufactured, like these guys know they have to do SOMETHING to be entertaining.

 

Jimmy Hart's picky eating is mildly funny. I can understand him not wanting those nasty chitlins and pickled pigs feet, but that meatloaf looked damn good to me. :) Vegetarian maybe?

 

Hacksaw continues to be the most unlikeable character on the show, for me. His fake laugh drives me bonkers. In contrast, Hillbilly seems like the nicest dude. Doesn't sweat anything. Will he finally snap in a later episode? Tony Atlas is one wacky motherfucker, but I like him too.

Legends House is really just blase. I'm not a fan of the genre in general. The more exciting the show, the less realistic it is. The best I can say about the show is at least the participants come off as honest portrayals.

 

A part of me though is just sad we'll never have a version with Gorilla Monsoon, Bobby Heenan and Lord Alfred Hayes.

That Factions countdown was weird. The Brood at number 2? I wasn't watching wrestling for the totality of their run, and wouldn't have guessed they were so fondly remembered. AJ is always super annoying on these things, and Summer Rae's bits sound really artificial.

 

I stopped watching at the Four Horsemen at 4, just because I wanted to pay attention to that and I didn't have time to do more than listen, and in my head I couldn't figure out who the hell was slotted in there. There was NWO and DX, obviously, but who the hell else? I figured it was probably the Shield and they did a late insertion to get them in there. The Brood is so much more surreal.

 

I think it gives you an interesting idea of the amount of Attitude Era fans involved in this though? Maybe?

So it seems that WWE has been holding back on a lot of stuff that we know was ready since it was previously up on 24/7 like Raw/Nitros all through the Monday Night Wars and episodes of territory TV like WCW Saturday Night. The reason that I keep hearing is they want to save something for the first round of renewals and don't want to shoot their wad all at once. OK, I can accept that. However now Network subs are not where they want them to be and they are pinning a large part of the future of the company on this taking off. At what point to they start opening the vaults a little wider and releasing more content before a large chunk of their current subs gets bored by Legends House repeats and Raws from 1994.

 

Now I'm not saying they'll get 2 million people to sign up if only they'd show AWA TV, but it seems they are missing out on the exact kind of fan the Network seems geared toward.

No, no, they will TOTALLY get 2 million+ subscribers if they put up weekly AWA TV.

 

Hunter, if you're reading this, you NEED to add AWA TV to get the subscribers! You'll get a million new ones for every year of AWA TV you show before 1981, guaranteed!
