I'm impressed the CFP committee got it right. I like the top four as is, and glad they're not rewarding FSU for all their unimpressive backdoor wins against middling squads.
ReplyDeleteIt's official: WWF 1995>WWE 2014.
ReplyDeleteI still don't see how HHH doesn't wrestle in the Survivor Series main event, especially after taking the AA from Cena on Monday. My last-ditch way to make it happen is to have Harper and Rowan take each other out either on Smackdown or early in the PPV, opening up two spots. HHH names himself as Team Authority's fifth man, while we don't know Cena's fifth guy until it's time for the main event -- either Reigns, Orton or Jericho.
ReplyDeleteCurrently, I'm revisiting Starrcade 1987 on the Network. It's crazy that they did the Dusty finish in the tag team title match between the Road Warriors and Anderson & Blanchard.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy WWE granted my wish and gave us another traditional Survivor Series match. Too bad it is with divas. :(
ReplyDeleteHas the New Orleans team always been called the Pelicans?
ReplyDeleteNo. They used to be the Hornets.
ReplyDeleteWhy the change?
ReplyDeleteThey had recently seen the Pelican Brief and really enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to check that picture out.
ReplyDeleteAt least HBK and Bret were giving us *** matches on every IYH.
ReplyDeleteI wracked my brain trying to come up with which roster members were left to put in a second Survivor Series match, since I love those matches so much. But I couldn't come up with enough people.
ReplyDeleteNever occurred to me to use the Divas, because...well, it's a terrible idea.
I wish they gave a new spin in SurSer, you don't have to book all matches as tag ones, but keep the elimination aspect, in example make a 4-way elimination for the US/IC or for a WWE title shot at the end of the show.
ReplyDeleteIn all seriousness, the owner never thought it fit and Charlotte basically ponied up to get the name and history back because the Bobcats were irrelevant but the Hornets still resonate in Flair Country
ReplyDeleteHold on. Survivor Series is in St. Louis. I think that pretty much seals the finish of the big tag match right?
ReplyDeleteOn paper, it's one of the shittiest Survivor Series lineups of all-time.
ReplyDeleteRib eating contest?
ReplyDeleteIsn't easy just to book a Team NXT vs Team WWE as midcard match?
ReplyDeleteAn NXT one would be nice.
ReplyDeleteOr Cesaro, Kidd, Rose, Axel vs. Swagger, Bunny, Slater, Gabriel.
So I gather that the team moved from Charlotte to New Orleans, and then later Charlotte got another team?
ReplyDeleteThat seems to be the case from what I'm reading here.
Battle on top of the big arch thing?
ReplyDeleteZayn/Neville/Lucha Dragons vs Gabriel/Kidd/Cesaro/Axel.
ReplyDeleteHere who is left to choose from:
ReplyDeleteBig E
Cesaro
Curtis Axel
Heath Slater
Jack Swagger
Justin Gabriel
Kofi
R-Truth
Sin Cara
Titus O'Neill
Tyson Kidd
Xavier Woods
Talk about no roster depth
Someone is getting shot?
ReplyDelete... RUN, Mark Henry, RUN.
ReplyDeleteMark McGwire run-in?
ReplyDeleteI'd say use New Day and debut them at Survivor Series, but I'm not even sure if they're supposed to be heels or faces.
ReplyDeleteSam Bradford is going to tear his ACL again?
ReplyDeleteBecause someone had the bright idea of giving Charlotte the Hornets name back. And Utah won't give back the Jazz.
ReplyDeleteRace riots?
ReplyDeleteI don't see why they can't squeeze in another: Big E, Sin Cara, Kalisto and the debuting New Day (Kofi & Woods) vs. Cesaro, Bo Dallas, Fandango, Curtis Axel and Tyson Kidd. Or swap out New Day for Slater-Gator.
ReplyDeleteDancing negroes.
ReplyDeleteThey're gonna throw a Blue Blazer doll off the ceiling?
ReplyDeleteNo one is sure whether or not Adam Rose & Tyson Kidd are supposed to be faces or heels and that didn't stop them from making that match last night.
ReplyDeleteGoldberg's long gone.
ReplyDeleteBingo.
ReplyDeleteGoddammit that's what I get for being vague and forgetting that St. Louis is more than just Randy Orton's hometown.
ReplyDeleteScrew you guys!
This running two businesses thing is fucking murder, I haven't had a full day off in like three weeks.
ReplyDeleteExcept right now. So I have fireball and kush.
What PPV are we watching queebs?
I think the decision for the New Orleans franchise to switch from Hornets to Pelicans was made before Charlotte decided to take the Hornets name back. When Tom Benson bought the New Orleans franchise, one of his first things was that he wanted to change the name and get a new start. Like a year later, Jordan started talking about bringing "Hornets" back to Charlotte.
ReplyDeleteYOU FUCKED UP! YOU FUCKED UP! YOU FUCKED UP!
ReplyDeleteGAB 2004. It will make 2014 Survivor Series seem less shitty when we watch it.
ReplyDeleteSoftballs are always welcome around here.
ReplyDelete...society be damned, I'd hope for any of those other guesses other than Orton saving the day
ReplyDeleteExcellent, one I haven't seen, logging into my xbox now then I'll need a time to FF to
ReplyDeleteIs this the smallest roster of WWE since 1996?
ReplyDeleteWhen I think of Utah, I think of Jazz.
ReplyDeleteNo it won't.
ReplyDeleteI don't know, but the Network looks a little different on my laptop. They actually have my recent viewing history and where I left off, it appears. Only took 'em about 9 months but that's okay.
ReplyDeleteNow, all they have to add is a "recently updated" section, which is like rocket surgery, apparently.
Don't they still have like ~70+ on contract though? Smallest percent of a roster being used maybe
ReplyDeleteNo, I think 1996 was still smaller. At one point I think they only had 20 guys.
ReplyDeleteIsn't there a rumour of a 40 man RR again too?
ReplyDeleteNot surprised by the first half of MSU/Duke. I expected us to lose by atleast double digits, just about there :(
ReplyDeleteIt's just too damn tough to constantly compete with the recruiting giants.
Last night I was watching Always Sunny in my garage, turned off the XBox, went into my bedroom and turned on the iPad and started back up right where I left off.
ReplyDeleteSurely keeping this information server side cannot be that hard.
I lament WWE not being able to put together a card that would inspire me to drive 20 minutes?
ReplyDeleteCollege football is so f'ed up. How is a 1 loss team ranked higher than a team that has been undefeated the last two seasons and won the National title last year?
ReplyDeleteA new Spin on Survivor Series, new spin, spin...Spin...The Wheel...Make the deal. I like where you are going with this..
ReplyDeleteFSU got lucky last year and are getting lucky this year.
ReplyDeleteRelax, it's just a recruiting league that we all get to pay for. Football enthusiast or not.
ReplyDeleteNot even counting NXT guys you have Bryan, Barrett, Rey, and Darren Young injured. Plus Punk, Santino, and Kahili ave all retired in the past year. Then you also have HHH, Taker, Orton, and Lesnar on the inactive list.
ReplyDeleteI don't even watch much college football, it just doesn't make any sense.
ReplyDeleteThe argument on Florida St. is that they have played a shit schedule, and have not looked great in games they should dominate.
ReplyDeleteBlatant money grabs rarely do.
ReplyDeleteFSU wouldn't be a top 10 team if they played in the SEC.
ReplyDeleteDo a SOTF tournament, first round on Raw, do 4 one on one matches, those who win advance to the next stage at SurSer, 4 way elimination match with the winner getting a shot in the main event.
ReplyDeleteThey'd have atleast 3 losses by now im sure.
ReplyDeleteBest part about this time of year? You can leave your beer outside.
ReplyDeleteHave 4 assignments from a course that is due today, but the professor gave us until Friday to complete it. Debating if I should do it tonight or tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThe eye test says FSU is not that good. The computers says FSU shouldn't be #1 and taking last year into consideration is absurd. On what basis should they be #1? If they're that good they'll get their chance to prove it
ReplyDeleteDamn right
ReplyDeleteNow. You have Impact tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteHave a seminar and a test next week, totally not giving a fuck.
ReplyDeleteThis is true.
ReplyDeleteTorrie Wilson in the hot tub at GAB2004 > ANYTHING that will happen on Survivor Series 2014.
ReplyDeleteFACT.
A Coal Miner's Glove Survivor Series Match! YES!
ReplyDeleteThe fuck is a queeb?
ReplyDeleteThis is your FUTURE on the line.
ReplyDeleteStarting up GAB04, oh good, the JBL years.............
ReplyDeleteDid the professor preface that announcement with 'good news, everyone!'
ReplyDeleteLess than a quay.
ReplyDeleteWont be hard to top the one star Roberts/Sting affair atleast.
ReplyDeleteI think the Usos are talented, love the Dust brothers, and have always dug Sandow. But this four way match brings me back to the glory days of SSlam 96 with the New Rockers vs Body Donnas (with cloudy) vs. Godwins vs Smoking Gunns. There's just not enough reasons to care about any of these teams.
ReplyDeleteSorry, watching Main Event right now.
There's not a reason to care about the entire midcard. 50/50 booking gets nobody over.
ReplyDeleteOh....this is when Bearer gets buried in concrete too right?
ReplyDeleteFuck...Bayless was goofing and I fell for it.
I already passed, I'm scared about Medieval II, that guy is maniac, the who teaches.
ReplyDeletehttp://i.minus.com/ibu07ec5xsQNsq.gif
ReplyDeleteGAB 2004 ladies and gents.
So hot. She's criminally underrated.
ReplyDeleteSpike was lookin' handsome!
ReplyDeleteYeah, someone said last night "Alright, a four way tag match! You know a PPV will be awesome when it's got one of those!"
ReplyDeleteI chuckled.
Pre-2005 Torrie is a Top 3 of all time Diva in my books.
ReplyDelete"Interesting, a man of steel"....see? I like that one, cutesy allusions doesn't always have to be repulsive (Looking in Gotham's direction)
ReplyDeleteSo...was Cena making enough in his first year to afford 280 different throwbacks? Or ya think since it was part of the character the company took care of that?
ReplyDeleteI'd have her right there with Trish.
ReplyDeleteReally? Do they do it in song?
ReplyDeleteTo make it more traditional, how about the tag title match elimination style.
ReplyDeleteMediEvil 1 was a better game.
ReplyDeleteI do as well. Torrie on Smackdown in 2003-2004 was a perfect 10
ReplyDeleteI always loved those even though they guarantee a "Partners that dislike each other but have to work together" type of angle afterward, they were still always fun.
ReplyDeleteWho the fuck gave Shane Douglas and Hugh Morris this much time on a 2001 ppv?
ReplyDeleteNice job, Sir.
ReplyDeleteWait what? This sounds way better than what I'm watching
ReplyDeleteNobody knows...not even the people who worked there.
ReplyDeleteBilly Gunn was a VERY unrealistic pairing for her.
ReplyDeleteDear sweet wounded baby Jesus, I am getting the shit kicked out of me at work. Four huge special sections in the next five weeks, shifting my entire editorial staff into overdrive while every other department is taking it chillsville until the new year. And when I questioned the boss about whether or not this was a good idea, the boss tells me my staff should "work harder."
ReplyDeleteRKOs all around.
The minute Selina went to the kitchen in last night's episode, was there ANY CHANCE she wasn't coming back with a big-ass bottle of milk?
ReplyDeleteIt can make the match more creative.
ReplyDeleteHard to imagine but its possible. I've been getting high and watching sin 01 since I got home.
ReplyDeleteSome today and tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI always sort of imagine killing everyone with the business end of a claw hammer then laying them all out head to toe in the parking lot.
ReplyDeleteHey look, I made a dead line.
Ha yea wtf was that.
ReplyDeleteFor the record...
My list is like
1. Torrie (03-04 specifically)
1. Trish (2000-2004)
3. Kimberly Page, Beulah, Mickie James, probably like 2 others I forget right now
I'd still say she was pushing 10 status years after that. She was just a different kind of hot as she matured
ReplyDeleteI know almost nothing about showbiz tricks, so I'm genuinely curious how that worked. It's not like they busted him out of there immediately, and even if the "cement" was just oatmeal, he'd still presumably be risking drowning in it. So how did they pull that shit off?
ReplyDeleteWell, everyone failed in Medieval II, just because were not doctors in French. Although, out of the class he's pretty nice.
ReplyDeleteBut the Evil Within was interesting......
ReplyDeleteLOL, ok where are you I've never even seen the show only heard the legend.
ReplyDeleteFirst blood matches aren't my favorite gimmick and this match hasn't changed my opinion.
ReplyDeleteFirst ever inter-gender, inter-species tag match?
ReplyDeleteHe's very assailants for his profession.
ReplyDelete"Extant1979, slithering into position..."
ReplyDeleteYou'd make a great psychopath.
ReplyDeleteMan, I'm on my last three days at the job.
ReplyDeleteI am exploring uncharted depths of not giving a shit.
I'd flip one and two and then fuck, number three might be Lita 06.
ReplyDeleteDo yourself a favor, never put your apartment online.
ReplyDelete2:15:15. Just in time for some Goldberg. This is the hottest match on the card
ReplyDeleteShe was still mad hot like 2005-2009, but she lost some of her thickness and dropped a point or two. For me atleast.
ReplyDeleteZayn's current theme is probably one of the best today.
ReplyDeleteOnce I get some dinner in me and shake off the shit show that was today, I'm diving into resumes.
ReplyDeleteI want to get down on my knees and please you, Jesus. I want to feel your salvation all over my face...
ReplyDeleteAll matches like that should be elimination anyway. First fall wins sucks.
ReplyDeleteGod damn tea party was right.
ReplyDeleteI never cared much for Midasa
ReplyDeleteFuck it, I'm starting Sin from the beginning, might as go all the way into bad day.
ReplyDeleteThis is 11-9 Sked gets really brutal at 8:00 PM
ReplyDeleteI heard that people hate it, but I enjoy it very much, it's happy, inspiring, and epic all at the same time.
ReplyDeleteI know I spelled it wrong but...
ReplyDeleteO yea, 06 Lita is for sure in my list of #3
ReplyDeleteThey're trying to make Main Event an A-level show. Wanna know how I know? The Dust Brothers lost a non-title match. I could swear that only happens on Raw
ReplyDeleteI won't say all should be elimination, you can build a dramatic match around who's gonna take the fall.
ReplyDeleteI liked her body; face weird.
ReplyDeletePeople who hate Zayn's theme song really don't have a soul.
ReplyDeleteIt feels like you would fit his Generico persona.
ReplyDeleteBetter stable: speed force or MIA?
ReplyDeleteMisawa?
ReplyDeleteJapanese legend?
WCW's answer to Chyna
ReplyDeleteNah, that was Asya.
ReplyDeleteI thought Adam Rose & The Bunny teaming up already meant it was an A-level show. That can main event any arena in the country.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if it's just the tastes changing over time but man the lighting in this arena looks super depressing. And empty.
ReplyDeleteShit, I'm getting my weird WCW chicks mixed up. Maybe don't keep the same syllables in the name, huh, WCW?
ReplyDeleteIs Sarge the worst tag partner of all time?
ReplyDeleteWhys that? I'm not Canadian, don't say ole, nor do I wear a red mask.
ReplyDeleteTypo, refresh it.
ReplyDeleteMidaja or however you spell it was Prince Iukea's chick, I think.
ReplyDeleteMidajah (Steiners main chick) - http://marvellousmidajah.tripod.com/MelindaNitro4.jpg
ReplyDeleteAsya (gross muscle chick) - http://photos.imageevent.com/pizon/wcwnwopromos/Asya.jpg
MIA
ReplyDeleteThey probably couldn't sell 1500 tickets to a ppv at this point.
ReplyDeleteSteiners freak.
ReplyDeleteWell, it's become a punchline now, but it was fucking true back in the day when Garea-Rodz tore up MSG.
ReplyDeleteFUCK these AT&T commercials with the two "nerds". Goddammit fuck those commercials with everything in my soul...
ReplyDelete^ Her
ReplyDeleteBuff Bagwell was never gonna make it in the wwe. No chance.
ReplyDeleteAh, I see, and to answer that one, apparently it's suppose to be a cover of his ROH theme.
ReplyDeleteLol sarge sucks
ReplyDeleteOhhh Jobber you still got that badass JBL/Eddie Bullrope match ahead of you
ReplyDeleteSo who was the Artist's girl then?
ReplyDeleteOle!
ReplyDeleteI'm watching WCW sin 2001 so I got a sid injury lurking.
ReplyDeleteAh, Garea could sell out the whole island of New Zealand if they let him. Missed a lot of opportunities to expand into the South Pacific
ReplyDeleteGarea vs. Rodz
Garea vs. Goulet
Garea vs. Tiger Chung Lee
Main events on any continent in the universe in 1982
Paisley
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Sami Zayn, I love that the overall vibe with him in 2K15 is that he's gotten the subtitle of " the superstar we're so proud of ".
ReplyDeletePaisley
ReplyDeleteHow's 2k15?
ReplyDeleteWatching the Ricardo shoot. Liked Hawkins' better. Didn't need to hear 35 minutes of Ricardo talking about training and wrestling in glorified backyard feds.
ReplyDeleteEveryone seems to not like it very much.
ReplyDeletePlaying Skyrim. I used to play it 5 or 6 hours a day
ReplyDeleteOh yea, your doing Sin, everyone else is doing GAB. My bad.
ReplyDeleteThe trumpets in Worlds Apart sound like the guitar riffs in his ROH theme.
ReplyDeleteWould Paisley go on to marry Booker T (Sharmell), or was she someone else?
ReplyDeleteShould've won the ROH world belt at some point.
ReplyDeleteI'm a rebel!
ReplyDeleteAnd then Symphony was Ryan Shamrock, right?
ReplyDeleteMan, even the chicks were total jobbers near the end.
that was her
ReplyDeleteAfter FPR, I doubt to find a better game that represents wrestling.
ReplyDeleteSee, that's who I thought Midajia was at first.
ReplyDelete(3rd way it's been spelled so far, and I bet none of them are correct).
The next gen version looks good, it's even accurate, in order to get a WWE contract, you have to lose!
ReplyDeleteI'm probably gonna listen to in several times tonight.
ReplyDeleteIf you win you don't get a contract?
ReplyDeleteHe never stuck around long enough. I don't think he was ever under any kind of contract.
ReplyDeleteTo voluntarily sit through that show, you must be.
ReplyDeleteSad to see you two snipe back and forth like this...
ReplyDeleteSupposedly he was absolutely HATED backstage.
ReplyDeleteYou don't win you fight for a bit, then a cut scene triggers where you tap out.
ReplyDeleteHell of a lot better than GAB04.
ReplyDeleteIts actually solid and light years better than the 2000 shows.
ReplyDeleteI almost wonder if he's asked to stay in NXT. "I don't want anything to even do with shitshow."
ReplyDelete....I hate that aspect of the games. Haven't played that many, the last was probably whatever year Punk was on the cover, but preferred No Mercy's branching storylines better
ReplyDelete2014 WWE is light years better than 2000 WCW.
ReplyDeleteThen she dated A-Rod....
ReplyDeleteIt's suppose to be kind of like No Mercy from what I've heard.
ReplyDeleteHopefully it ends the same way.
ReplyDeleteI'm all for him staying, he's one of the guys that takes the promotion to another level.
ReplyDeleteWith everyone in charge getting fired?
ReplyDelete
