    Not defending TNA here, but who would release information like this? Young Bucks don't like Dave, I think. TNA doesn't leak news to Dave as they won't even let him in their conference calls anymore.

  2. In the spirit of Simpsons conversation, what's your all time #1 episode, if there was a gun to your head? I'd have to go with Bart vs Australia with $pringfield and Lemon of Troy as close seconds.

  3. LOLTNA. If the Young Bucks are going to refuse a WWE offer, why on earth would they go back to TNA?

    ReplyDelete
  4. Too many to list a single favorite, but The Boy Who Knew Too Much, A Star Is Burns, Simpsons Spin-Off Showcase, and Cape Feare are up there for me

  5. "Smithers! Land in that field over there!"


    "Uh, sir, you're flying the plane...."


    "...........excelleeeeent.........."

  6. It's not out of the question that The Young Bucks talk to people and someone in TNA would tell Dave.

  7. Probably Marge vs the Monorail, but there's loads of others. Homer Goes to College is great too. Whacking Day. Cape Feare. Probably people are already naming off some others that I've forgotten.

    ReplyDelete
  8. Damn I forgot Cape Feare, another top one for sure.

  9. I always have a soft spot for Homer & Apu.

  10. But the Young Bucks named their finisher The Meltzer Driver.

    Really? Are you sure? Because it's exactly like that. I enjoy Chris Benoit matches, and there are some who say I shouldn't because he's a psychopath. I say leave me alone to enjoy my Chris Benoit matches.


    It's exactly the same thing.

  13. "You're from Colliers Magazine aren't you? Are you going to put my picture in Star Snoop?"

  14. Which would be hilarious b/c apparently Vince REALLY hates pronouns. I never noticed it until I read online somewhere that Vince is always screaming that the announcers only refer to guys by their proper names. Once it got pointed out to me, it got really noticeable how you never hear them say "he", "she", "they", etc.

  15. Team Carmella... you can't... teach... that!

  16. Team JoJo for sho!

  17. El Rey airs it. Univision airs a Spanish language version each weekened.


    If you don't get El Rey, there's a guy who usually posts each full episode of Lucha on Dailymotion within a day or two after it airs. The video quality is pretty solid.

  18. Even back in Scott's heyday,I never understood why if I wanted to catch up on a raw I missed I needed to know just how many clothes lines Kane did.

    I had no idea, this has been am informing comment section.


    The crowd not being behind Benoit that much detracts from greatest of all time for me, but I respect your views.

  20. I think I'm giving up on NXT except for the live specials. The weekly show just is not doing it for me. I'd heard so much overwhelming praise for it that I started watching it a few months ago. However, I've been pretty underwhelmed and it seems like even the reviews of every episode I've watched have said something like "This show felt.....uneven." [Tommy Hall] or "Kind of a terrible show this week, really not up to the standards we’re used to." [Scott Keith]. Even in several months of watching, I'm yet to observe those standards.

    I'm wondering, do people find NXT legitimately good on an absolute scale, or is it just that it's better than the current WWE product? How does it compare to TNA (I haven't bothered watching that in years)?

    ReplyDelete
  21. Yep. And here's hoping both are fully healthy and good to go, and that the match is basically TLC. I know they don't really do shit like that down there, but if they ever do, it should be applied to something on this level.

  22. Yeah, you're referring to the son of Sam killer I think. There was a serial killer named Richard Ramirez from California who killed and raped women and was a confirmed "Satanist" in the 80s. He wound up killing around 13 women, raped 11 others and was caught attempting to kill another. He died a couple of years ago while on death row. The Richard Ramirez I know is a locally-popular and well-liked Librarian, lol.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Yeah, that's right, Son of Sam was the one that supposedly got orders to kill from a neighbor's Lab mix.

  24. Take a page out of the Powerpuff Girls' playbook and go with "Him".

  25. Cause it's not gay if it's in a threeway?


    P.S. THEY'RE SUPER GAY!

    My pal told me to check out the 2 most recent series.


    Pretty hit and miss, but definitely some good ones!

  27. WWE once turned down the chance of hiring Sexy Star because lookswise they thought she was nothing special without her mask. I have no idea who made that call but they obviously have ridiculous standards.

  28. What Zayn and KO gave us at the end would elevate any show about "sucked".
