What Kinda Wrestling Thread You Runnin' Here?

Wow. I just looked at the poster and counted seven for the 1991 Rumble, and there were only like 11 on the whole poster.

It's 9 In total for 1991.

 

[DarkSentinel]

I can't stop watching Randy Savage's promos. The man is ****ing hilarious and mesmerizing at the same damn time.

"Unbelievable, time distortion! Space is the place, Mene Gene Okerlund, go down that lonesome highway YEAH! But don't be hypnotized, no—REINCARNATION doesn't have to be! You can concentrate and you can, uh, mental telepathy, YEAH!"

How the hell did Okerlund keep a straight face?

 

[DarkSentinel]

Promo in question starts at 7:25..the rest is also pure gold.

 

[RetroNaz]

Why does Lashley talk? All his intimidation factor goes out the window when he opens his mouth

What's the freaking point of Low-Ki dropping the X Division title only to win it back the next week?

I'm a James Storm fan but The Revolution sucks.

I thought the matches were fine but nothing really good.

EC3 trolling JB continues to be entertaining.

Looling forward to Havoc vs Kong at some point.

Again, I'm glad Young is heel because he's not a guy I'm going to get behind and cheer anyway.

I started to read this (and agree with everything you wrote) but got completely distracted by the post directly below yours.

When he was a full time guy, I agree, and it used to piss me off all the time. But while you acknowledged him putting over Bryan, you left off him looking like the Shield's ***** two ppv shows in a row.

Totally forgot about how incredibly he put Shield over, I haven't watched regularly since 2012 but those bits in pieces that I have seen recently he's done incredible putting Bryan over at WM30 and Shield in those Evolution/Shield matches. Especially since how strong he made Evolution look in his 03-05 run.

So word has it that Daniel Bryan has a 3 Disc DVD/2 Disc Blu-Ray set coming out in June. The working title is supposedly "Just Say YES! YES! YES!"

I really hope they go super in-depth on his career in the documentary portion because Bryan's life story and career makes for an epic documentary on it's own and if they add Rollins, Sapolsky, HBK, Cesaro, AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Chris Hero, Nigel McGuinness, Sami Zayn, Hideo Itami, Kevin Owens, Finn Balor, Kane, Stephanie McMahon, Dolph Ziggler, Kane, HHH, Orton, Miz, Cena, Austin, Foley, and Dean Ambrose as the featured stars on the documentary then it could be really epic since he'd be able to cover most of the major feuds in his career along with highlight feuds that were good but didn't last that long.

Simon Gotch and Aiden English vs. Wesley Blake and Buddy Murphy in a #1 contenders match has been announced for this Wednesday's episode of WWE NXT.

The winners will face NXT Tag Team Champions Sin Cara and Kalisto on the January 28th episode.

On a related note, there's a rumor going around NXT that Kalisto may be getting called up to the main roster soon.

I wonder if Bryan had a ghost writer or if he did it Foley style.

Ghost writer. If there is a second person you've never heard of with a roughly equal level of credit for the book, that's the ghost writer (or co-writer more accurately). Or if the "editor" is mentioned on the front cover, that is basically also the ghost writer.

Nothing wrong with that, incidentally, writing a full length book is a hard process on your own when you've already got a full time job getting beaten up by Randy Orton and nailing Brie Bella.

So for all y'all UK fans: How many of you got the WWE Network?

I guess we now know what those private meetings were about. I wonder how this effects Kevin Dunn interfering with creative...?

I wonder how many times will she deal with Vince's manic rewrites before she quits?

She's been with the company 19 years; she likely knows how the game is played, so won't do anything that conflicts with Vince's viewpoint.

On the negative side, she likely knows how the game is played, so won't do anything that conflicts with Vince's viewpoint. It's too bad they are not bringing in someone new to shake things up. And by that I mean someone outside the actual wrestling business, as I've observed there are far too many idiots in the industry who think they'd make great corporate-level planners.

 

[NDX]

Pro Wrestling Syndicate has a show on WLNY at 4:30 AM on Sunday, and here is the first episode.



Been to a few shows a few years ago in Queens. Sami Callihan defended his title against Dan Maff is a hard match. Gotta remember to catch these. Or invest in a DVR.

What the hell, episodes 2 and 3.





More PWS matches can be found at Eric Tapout's YT channel, it seems.
