In Charleston WV for a wedding. 5 cop cars outside our hotel when we left for breakfast this morning. The city is otherwise completely depressed...the Tex-Mex place where we had dinner was the only restaurant in town open after 2:30pm
We're a block or so away from a bar that boasts "the best drag show in Charleston." That might be tonight's entertainment.
I'm getting no volume to come out when I play a game on my 360 and am a tech potato. Any idea's on what the problem may be? And yes, the TV works fine.
Anybody know how far in advance Lucha Underground shows are taped before they air? Just wondering if they'll mention Perro Aguayo Jr. on the next episode. I'm guessing they'll do something before the taped portion of the broadcast.
Seriously...that Tex Mex place owes the bride and groom a huge favor for all the business they brought in this weekend...the 20 or so of us that are the wedding party are like the only people walking around town this afternoon
Yeah...the brand extension was pretty much on life support in 2009, wasn't it? I'm pretty sure Matt/Jeff is the only match on this show that wasn't interpromotional.
Like I said earlier, Perro Aguayo Jr. dying in 2015 is almost like HHH dying right in the middle of Evolution's main-event run in 2003 or whenever that was.
If that had happened, how do you think WWE would've moved on creatively? Just disband the group and all its feuds immediately? Replace HHH with another star? Turn the death into an angle?
So this match we've got Cena, who portrayed a Marine, Shawn, who was beaten my Marines, Randy, who went awol from the Marines, and Edge, who is Canadian.
Best part is him telling that story with Cornette in their shoot. "Taker is putting on his gloves and his hat like he's John Wayne". Meanwhile Paul has this smirk on his face, which I interpret as Taker smirking as he's putting his gimmicks on.
Damn. I didn't realize this was for two weeks. What the hell, still calling my matchup over even if my opponent probably doesn't care. Kramerica Industries is splitting wigs.
The triple threat is actually a pretty good match. Entertaining wall to wall stuff and story heavy, though the finish pretty much comes out of nowhere. This is gonna be the dumbest thing I ever say on here but................................I think Big Show should've won.
There was a great article on Cracked.com [Stunned Caliber hasn't pilfered it yet! jk jk] that pointed out the weirdness of Vince and how he treats his family!
I'm watching a Million Ways to Die in the West on HBO. This movie isn't good, like at all. And I say that as a fan of Family Guy, American Dad and Ted.
It's the first PWG show he rated, and he put them over strong, comparing the in-ring quality to NJPW. Here's all the matches he rated :
Biff Busick vs. Mike Bailey (****) Chris Hero vs. Drew Gulak (***3/4) Matt Sydal vs. Ricochet (****1/4) The Young Bucks vs. Monster Mafia (****1/4) Trevor Lee vs. Roderick Strong (****)
Vince did imply in an interview once that his mom sexually abused him when he was a kid so I wouldn't be suprised if that fucked him up in the head some.
Ted is good and has a nice symbolism of growing up. Ted represents to John (Walhberg) he's young boy side he never got over, his girlfriend represents maturity. What I like about the film is that John doesn't leave Ted, he just takes more responsibilities.
Like I said...I get how the storyline dictated a HHH win...but fuck sometimes you gotta strike while the iron is hot. Give Orton the win, have him attempt to destroy HHH after the bell, HHH fights back and gets a small level of payback, then fully gets his revenge down the road.
Watching backlash 99 if anyone wants in.
ReplyDeleteI hate analysts and others saying that UCLA winning two games means they deserved to be in the tournament. No, it doesn't.
ReplyDeleteFeel. the bang.
ReplyDeleteYou guys need to slow down, can't keep up with all this activity tonight.
ReplyDeleteLively thread
ReplyDeleteI saw The DUFF. I was the only one in the theater
ReplyDeleteHow was it
ReplyDeleteIt was a homage/blatant ripoff of Mean Girls.
ReplyDeleteWhy did you go see that?
ReplyDeleteI'll be here til 2 AM drinking!
ReplyDeleteIt was the only thing playing I wanted to see, I like Ann Veal and it had decent reviews.
ReplyDeleteHer?
ReplyDeleteI kept thinking that the whole movie. Of course any joke I made I was making to myself.
ReplyDeleteIn Charleston WV for a wedding. 5 cop cars outside our hotel when we left for breakfast this morning. The city is otherwise completely depressed...the Tex-Mex place where we had dinner was the only restaurant in town open after 2:30pm
ReplyDeleteWe're a block or so away from a bar that boasts "the best drag show in Charleston." That might be tonight's entertainment.
Ha, commentators having to pretend that HBk beat Taker in previous meetings for any reason other than Kane
ReplyDeleteOK, I think this is the beginning of the puppies thing and it's already wearing thin.
ReplyDeleteGo Bruins
ReplyDeleteI'm getting no volume to come out when I play a game on my 360 and am a tech potato. Any idea's on what the problem may be? And yes, the TV works fine.
ReplyDeleteBad audio cable? The audio in jack is loose?
ReplyDeleteGuts. Glory. Randy the Ram.
ReplyDeleteC4.
ReplyDelete"I've tried hitting it, and I've tried yelling at it, and I'm all out of ideas"
ReplyDeleteWhat awful bland theme music for HHH here.
ReplyDeleteWeird generic rock in between DX and My Time?
ReplyDeletehttps://youtu.be/p85xwZ_OLX0
ReplyDeleteYeah. First hearing it at Backlash.
ReplyDeleteI think this was the only time he used it? I don't remember it before or after this show.
ReplyDeleteSeeing Judge Harry on Cheers before he was Judge Harry is kinda jarring.
ReplyDeleteI think you mean Egg.
ReplyDeleteI'll know after I finish this one.
ReplyDeletePretty sure by Over the Edge he was using My Time. Not sure about the RAWs in between.
ReplyDeleteHere Hunter, just use this bullshit until Jim Johnston writes another classic.
ReplyDeleteCharleston SUCKS.
ReplyDeleteDo you post this at 6:05 PM EST every Saturday, Bayless? If not, you really should.
ReplyDeleteThe Simpsons hockey episode is so good.
ReplyDeleteThat kid's got bosoms!
Naw, I've got the raws too so I can tell you in a few.
ReplyDeleteXavier's doing their best to blow this game.
ReplyDeleteBart gets to sit in the front seat today cause he's a good guy at sports.
ReplyDeleteHACK THE BONE! HACK THE BOOOONE!!!!
ReplyDelete"Alright pie, I'm gonna do this *om nom nom* and if you get eaten, it's your own fault".
ReplyDelete"C'mon defense! Defense! You call that blowing?"
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's because of that cut away on Family Guy, but man, Sam Malone has a huge head.
ReplyDeletekill bart kill bart
ReplyDeleteHA! Competitive violence!
ReplyDeleteDeVito proposing to Rhea Perlman.
ReplyDelete"Marry me?" "I dunno" "It's either me, or nothing" "Sold!"
Just discovered that there is a Moe's Southwest Grill 2 miles from the house. If anyone needs me, I'll be eating the Art Vandelay burrito forever.
ReplyDeleteI heard its delicious.
ReplyDelete"The winner will be showered with praise. The loser will be taunted and booed until my throat is sore".
ReplyDeleteAnybody know how far in advance Lucha Underground shows are taped before they air? Just wondering if they'll mention Perro Aguayo Jr. on the next episode. I'm guessing they'll do something before the taped portion of the broadcast.
ReplyDeleteSTILL AWESOME
ReplyDeleteWe have one of those too, never ate there. Is it good?
ReplyDeleteSeriously...that Tex Mex place owes the bride and groom a huge favor for all the business they brought in this weekend...the 20 or so of us that are the wedding party are like the only people walking around town this afternoon
ReplyDeleteI finally figured where I'd seen the girl on iZombie, she was on Masters of Sex and took her kit off a few times. I approve.
ReplyDeleteThis Edge/Big Show/Cena/Vickie storyline was fucking retarded
ReplyDeleteWhat a bullshit call in the Georgia St./ Xavier game
ReplyDeleteThat poor HHH never caught a break.
ReplyDeleteCena's entrance was the only good thing about it.
ReplyDeleteAnd the equally bad makeup call follows
ReplyDeletePick your WrestleMania 31 winners, and predict the Extreme Rules card...
ReplyDeleteWWE is lucky they got that killer off the payroll.
ReplyDeleteWrestlemania 31 winner: Me! For not watching it.
ReplyDeleteUCLA is pretty meh for a Cinderella story.
ReplyDeleteYeah...the brand extension was pretty much on life support in 2009, wasn't it? I'm pretty sure Matt/Jeff is the only match on this show that wasn't interpromotional.
ReplyDeleteGo Wolfpack!
ReplyDeletePineapple/cucumber salsa? Okay...
ReplyDeleteYep, I think it only survived one more year before the SuperShow stuff started
ReplyDeleteDid he wrestle in Lucha Underground?
ReplyDeleteDoesn't sound terrible. Just odd.
ReplyDeleteThe undertaker is afraid of cucumbers.
ReplyDeleteDon't show him an Audrey Hollander porn.
ReplyDeleteWhere's Tony Schiavone when you need him?
ReplyDeleteNo, but he was a big deal in the lucha world.
ReplyDeleteOne just opened near me and it's pretty good. Free chips! The hot sauce is hot though
ReplyDeleteContinuing my watching PPV main events streak:
ReplyDeleteBacklash 07: Cena vs Orton vs Edge vs Shawn
Yes they are.
ReplyDeletei've only heard of it because of undercover boss
ReplyDeletego bruins
ReplyDeleteAwesome show, awesome main
ReplyDeletePretty sure WWE never mentioned the death of Misawa.
ReplyDeleteLike I said earlier, Perro Aguayo Jr. dying in 2015 is almost like HHH dying right in the middle of Evolution's main-event run in 2003 or whenever that was.
ReplyDeleteIf that had happened, how do you think WWE would've moved on creatively? Just disband the group and all its feuds immediately? Replace HHH with another star? Turn the death into an angle?
I miss unique sets. The Backlash swinging hooks were dope.
ReplyDeleteG'Town taking the boots to Utah. Come on fellas, settle down
ReplyDeleteI don't know, people don't seem happy that Perro is dead.
ReplyDeleteAll of the above in some variation or another.
ReplyDeleteThis Undertaker/Shamrock match sucks balls.
ReplyDeleteI think they keep the stable together but maybe turn them as Flair helps tutor the two to the top
ReplyDelete2010 Taker with his MMA fascination might have had a better match with Ken here.
ReplyDeleteThat was a weird show. Everything went right back to normal until after WM28.
ReplyDeleteYep, I miss all the neat sets
ReplyDeleteThree more. Just a bizarre WM.
ReplyDeleteDavey Boy's ghost was there?
ReplyDelete1999 undertaker with his gut and hatred of selling definitely wasn't lol
ReplyDeleteI hated Cena's camo look.
ReplyDeletehttp://gfycat.com/WeirdNarrowHermitcrab
ReplyDeleteNo idea why they haven't signed Ricochet yet. Or why they let Bourne go. Dude was one of the smoothest wrestlers I've ever seen.
Not intended to draw Taker into this but, Chris Rock's bit about fat black women still gets a laugh today.
ReplyDelete"Yeah, I got a gut. There's some good pussy under this gut!"
Lol Utah getting upset at their b-ball coach painting his office and taking care of the grass outside his office is WWE levels of petty.
ReplyDeleteWhat's up everybody.
ReplyDeleteBourne seemed to be more personal stuff than in-ring
ReplyDeleteWWE says they already have flying wrestler (Neville).
ReplyDeleteEvan Bourne was injury prone and kept getting popped for Wellness. One of those alone would've kept his job on shaky ground
ReplyDeleteCena himself was asking for a Evan Bourne push.
ReplyDelete"Looks like they're baking bread in her shoe".
ReplyDeleteJust checked the box score, damn dude you're getting worked. You'd better win tonight with that full lineup.
ReplyDeleteOnly 34 minutes left on this show, this match has to be ending soon, right? Jesus this won't end.
ReplyDeletePaul Bearer put a bunch of them in his hat once. Taker ended up gagging from it.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be more like Sting dying post-WCW but before he ever made an appearance in WWE. I think they would mention it.
ReplyDeleteThey tried, even got a nice PPV match against Jericho, but he was always hurt or suspended.
ReplyDeleteSo this match we've got Cena, who portrayed a Marine, Shawn, who was beaten my Marines, Randy, who went awol from the Marines, and Edge, who is Canadian.
ReplyDeleteOkay, that counter to the chokeslam was pretty cool, I admit.
ReplyDeleteBest part is him telling that story with Cornette in their shoot. "Taker is putting on his gloves and his hat like he's John Wayne". Meanwhile Paul has this smirk on his face, which I interpret as Taker smirking as he's putting his gimmicks on.
ReplyDeleteMore of a Qdoba/Chipotle man myself, but Moe's is ok when there's no authentic Mex/Cal-Mex option in town.
ReplyDeleteWay too early in the day for me to think anything of it. Goalies are barely in the second period.
ReplyDeleteEdge's purple camo is awesome for reasons I can't quite put my finger on.
ReplyDeleteMeh. Dude was talented enough that they should have looked the other way like they do with Orton.
ReplyDeleteEdge is a canadian and trained in MMA (Mountie Martial Arts).
ReplyDeleteDoes he always get his man?
ReplyDeleteOf course, Christian.
ReplyDeleteReigns, Orton, Cena, Taker, Sting, and Bryan win at Mania. At Extreme Rules we get Reigns vs. Big Show.
ReplyDeleteWatched the HHH/Booker T match recently and was digging the purple trunks on Hunter.
ReplyDeleteOrton has the royal family blood.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that I'm in the lead without Ward, Malkin, or Byf Bagwell all week is trouble for you if they're healthy next week.
ReplyDeleteHBK's pants look as if they are made of pleather. He didn't put as much effort into his looks once he stopped being a druggie.
ReplyDeleteHell yeah, here's Rock/Austin to save a second ppv in a row.
ReplyDeleteQ: What do West Virginians do on Halloween?
ReplyDeleteA: Pump kin!
:D
His Royal Blue during Nash-in-a-Cell are even better.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever seen Bourne botch anything. That is amazing considering the high level shit he did.
ReplyDeleteAnd he did all this while high!
ReplyDeleteI liked that match. Not great but pretty solid.
ReplyDeleteWhile I highly doubt it would happen, I would give WWE major props for dedicating RAW to Aguayo on Monday.
ReplyDeleteI hope the sour ending to their relationship with Rey wouldn't play a role in their decision process.
ReplyDeleteGood tastes, Macklin.
ReplyDeleteDamn. I didn't realize this was for two weeks. What the hell, still calling my matchup over even if my opponent probably doesn't care. Kramerica Industries is splitting wigs.
ReplyDeleteOr BECAUSE he was high!
ReplyDeleteThe triple threat is actually a pretty good match. Entertaining wall to wall stuff and story heavy, though the finish pretty much comes out of nowhere. This is gonna be the dumbest thing I ever say on here but................................I think Big Show should've won.
ReplyDeleteIs he giving Beth Phoenix the "shock stick" every night?
ReplyDeleteI've been known to be right a time or two.
ReplyDeleteCena/Edge/Show?
ReplyDeleteMeltzer gave that match ****1/4
ReplyDeleteYeah, those sweet short shorts and polo combo he wore in '97 was just super. HBK was never actually cool.
ReplyDeleteVince kissing Steph on the lips, all things considered, is pretty weird.
ReplyDeleteNo, but the love...
ReplyDeleteYeah
ReplyDelete96 HBK is a fashion icon!
ReplyDeleteWhat about YB/Monster Mafia?
ReplyDeleteQ: What do you call a potato that smokes weed?
ReplyDeleteA: A baked potato.
Don't forget to tip your waiters, folks, I'll be here all night! :D
Watching Wrestlrmania XX. Just finished BROCK/Goldberg.
ReplyDeleteHe is pretty dorky all things considered.
ReplyDeleteMacklin, you son of a bitch.
ReplyDeleteSame rating (****1/4)
ReplyDeleteRicochet had a tryout that reportedly blew everyone away and they decided to not sign him. Dumb decision.
ReplyDeleteNot to mention when he wanted to make her first pregnancy a storyline and he was the dad.
ReplyDeleteOr when she had a very low-cut shirt and he was constantly looking at her chest.
He generally had good ring gear, but my god those stripper outfits he wore over his tights...
ReplyDeleteI gave that match ***1/2, it's okay. I'm really get angry about Orton/HHH, it should've been a HIAC.
ReplyDeleteWeird factor in watching only main events: Announce tables being wrecked with no context.
ReplyDeleteThere was a great article on Cracked.com [Stunned Caliber hasn't pilfered it yet! jk jk] that pointed out the weirdness of Vince and how he treats his family!
ReplyDeleteHe also got voted into a match with Matt Hardy at Cyber Sunday 08 and had a swank match. Good PPV too.
ReplyDeleteVincent Kennedy McMahon is a enigmatic man.
ReplyDeleteI'm watching a Million Ways to Die in the West on HBO. This movie isn't good, like at all. And I say that as a fan of Family Guy, American Dad and Ted.
ReplyDeleteIt's the first PWG show he rated, and he put them over strong, comparing the in-ring quality to NJPW. Here's all the matches he rated :
ReplyDeleteBiff Busick vs. Mike Bailey (****)
Chris Hero vs. Drew Gulak (***3/4)
Matt Sydal vs. Ricochet (****1/4)
The Young Bucks vs. Monster Mafia (****1/4)
Trevor Lee vs. Roderick Strong (****)
I figured that just by watching the trailer. Weird how Ted was a legitimately good movie and this was not.
ReplyDeleteI should hate the Bucks because they do everything I can't stand, but I love them. The more they go over the top, better.
ReplyDeleteVince did imply in an interview once that his mom sexually abused him when he was a kid so I wouldn't be suprised if that fucked him up in the head some.
ReplyDeleteI agree but on the other hand he is awesome as Prince Puma
ReplyDeleteNot big enough, also a negro.
ReplyDelete-Vince McMahon.
Really? I hadn't heard that. That...explains things a little bit.
ReplyDeleteWhat about the Burchill incest angle he wanted?
ReplyDeleteI love the mistery surrounding his origin.
ReplyDeleteCena doing leg takedowns to get successive people in the STFU is pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteI will be happy to tag in when he doesn't. HAPPY
ReplyDeleteI know, Ted is a fun movie but this just isn't. The jokes all fall flat.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a little creepier when Vince wanted to do that story with his own family.
ReplyDeleteYeah it was in the interview he did for Playboy. He wasn't specific it was his mother but it's heavily implied.
ReplyDelete"I once tried to stuff leaves in a girls vagina when I was a teenager. Why wouldn't I want to have sex with my own daughter, pal?"
ReplyDeleteI forgot there was a good bit of garbage brawling in this match.
ReplyDeleteWatching Family Feud and Harvey asks: "Name something that comes in 6 and 12 inch sizes."
ReplyDeleteFirst guy says: "Hot dogs."
Me and my dad bust out in laughter.
Delivery was late by an hour so I got it for free. Didn't tip either because this was the second time in three weeks they've been way late
ReplyDeleteServer went down at work last night. I've been here for 24 hours. Kill meeeeeee.
ReplyDeleteTed is good and has a nice symbolism of growing up. Ted represents to John (Walhberg) he's young boy side he never got over, his girlfriend represents maturity. What I like about the film is that John doesn't leave Ted, he just takes more responsibilities.
ReplyDeleteSurvey Said??
ReplyDeleteI'm sure someone's going to say penis and Steve will act all shocked and flabbergasted like it ain't going to be up there.
ReplyDeleteDid you see the Grave Con,sequences match ? That was awesome
ReplyDeleteDING!
ReplyDeleteA guy said condoms. He got an X.
ReplyDeleteA fucking hour?!?! Yeah, no tip.
ReplyDeleteA LING.
ReplyDeleteVillanova might lose!
ReplyDeleteThis March madness app is pretty fucking awesome.
ReplyDeleteFinally getting the network... Should I wait for the beginning of the month, or does it get charged again 30 days after the first payment?
ReplyDeleteYeah it was fuckig brutal and they didn't seem to be that concerned when I called to bitch
ReplyDeleteIt's not too bad. Plus, you get a shit ton of chips with your order. I'm a Chipotle guy when it comes to fast Mexican food, but Moe's was closer.
ReplyDeleteLike I said...I get how the storyline dictated a HHH win...but fuck sometimes you gotta strike while the iron is hot. Give Orton the win, have him attempt to destroy HHH after the bell, HHH fights back and gets a small level of payback, then fully gets his revenge down the road.
ReplyDeleteCharlize Theron looked quite doable. But other than that, that movie sucked.
ReplyDeleteI gave that match ****, that was better than the cage match with Mundo/Cuerno.
ReplyDeleteAlright, the crying from the Georgia St. coach is a bit much right now
ReplyDeleteI'm going to say a ruler, Steve.
ReplyDeleteYou shut your candy ass up before The Rock slaps pinto beans out of your monkey ass!
ReplyDeleteGoddamn Rock is awesome.
Wait until 2 days before Mania and you get Mania and Extreme Rules for $9.99
ReplyDeleteDING!
ReplyDeleteThere was one good bar downtown whose name escapes me at the moment, Bar 101, I think it was.
ReplyDeleteHe's such a "look at me" guy. The cast, the swivel chair, the not wearing a suit, the gestures. He's a clown.
ReplyDelete
