Oh wait, is that not this game?
You mischievous little scamp!
ReplyDeleteOkay, you win!
ReplyDeleteI thought Rybaxel was appearing fairly frequently before Ryback's injury?
ReplyDeleteI've lost track. Is Big Show due for a face turn or a heel turn?
ReplyDeleteWorld title feud as a face.
ReplyDeleteWorking for me. Just slow traffic on the weekend.
ReplyDeleteThere was nothing funnier around this time than WWE showing Miz's parents on television and them looking like the biggest pair of white trash that ever white trashed.
ReplyDeleteWatching the 1986 Houston Summit Show.
ReplyDeleteThe abbreviated version is on the network.
There is a negative star Big John Studd vs. Super Machine match here.
Great. It's been several months since he last fought Lesnar, so it's fresh again.
ReplyDeleteMiz's dad is the fucking man
ReplyDeleteA shame we never got Studd Machine.
ReplyDeleteStudd vs. Machine is a main event anywhere.
ReplyDeleteThere's a forum?
ReplyDeleteI was trying to post but it wasn't working.
ReplyDeleteA newer versions of the Machines would be a nice fit for current day WWE.
ReplyDeleteMy new Roku 3 was delivered today (delivery on Sunday?). After adding all the channels I'm interested in at this time, and connecting the HDMI, everything looks awesome. One problem I ran into was everything playing in double speed, so everybody on SNME sounded one notch below chipmunk level of speed.
ReplyDeleteBig Show and Mark Henry for starters. Throw in Khali too
ReplyDeleteThe joke is that we would know who they were.
ReplyDeleteCleveland's finest.
ReplyDeleteSaw the AJPW Summer show, there are some good stuff, and some Bad stuff.
ReplyDeleteThat was the joke back then too, right?
ReplyDeleteSo in another "I should have seen this coming" moment in my life, my ex kissed me after a few of us went out for drinks on Friday. She told me to "not look into it" except knowing her, this is going to lead into her having some emotional breakdown down the road if I ever start seeing someone else.
ReplyDeleteFootball it is even though I don't like either team. Either that or Call of Duty:Modern Warfare 3
ReplyDeleteWith Andre it was obvious. I didn't know that Blackjack Mulligan and Bill Eadie filled out the other roles.
ReplyDeleteDude.
ReplyDeleteDude?
ReplyDeleteHe looks like he lives in a van down by the river.
ReplyDeleteNo such thing as being friends with an ex.
ReplyDeleteI'm still good friends with my ex. It's definitely possible.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to know how they convinced Hogan to job to Kidman, Vampiro and Mike Awesome.
ReplyDeleteHogan probably knew he had to do some jobs in the new Russo regime to show he was a team player and agreed to job in the unimportant matches, and once Russo thought he could control him, he pulled the same Hogan creative control bullshit when he faced Jarrett for the title.
ReplyDeleteWhen it comes crashing down...
ReplyDeleteHe didn't have to.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Luger would have gotten a renewed push had he re-signed. His contract was expiring so that's probably why he was downplayed.
ReplyDeleteHe was hurting people and Vince was going to fire him for hurting Nash.
ReplyDeleteIf it's bad time for Ppv, why did wcw run their Super Bowl Starrcade always in December then?
ReplyDeleteTradition, Starrcade was on thanksgiving until the Survivor Series forced it to move to Christmas time, where it stayed. Starrcade was far from thier Super bowl under Bischoff because the number didn't support making it so. Superbrawl and Halloween Havoc were treated as bigger shows. Bishoff said this in interviews.
ReplyDeleteJericho got hurt and they took him off television before his contact expired so that might be why his last WCW appearance was months before his WWF debut.
ReplyDeleteThat's probably it. But yeah, still odd they didn't hold him off a Nitro in order to get him on the PPV
ReplyDeleteNobody fucks like Mike Rotunda.
ReplyDeleteEvery lady pays their fair share.
ReplyDeleteBoth were horrible.
ReplyDeleteThat's why he's his greatest opponent, brother.
ReplyDeleteVince actually isn't crazy as soon as he started showing how jacked he was.
ReplyDeleteI remember when I was a kid seeing "Title Vacant" in the rankings in PWI and thinking, "How have I never seen these guys??"
ReplyDeleteYeah, Norton was awful. He was legit strong but a terrible worker and rarely sold anything. He was also super protected from jobs do he was actually a hindrance to WCW by hurting the pushes of others.
ReplyDeleteWho was Scott Norton? Scott even said in his review of the show that it was a big surprise. I had no idea who he was back then so I was always confused why WCW always acted like he was such a big deal and protected him so much.
ReplyDeleteHe wasn't from WWF or ECW. Was in big in Japan or something?
Lost is easy to explain to people: Everything was magic from a golden river of pixie light. THE END.
ReplyDeleteIt's doing pretty decent business in a good part of town.
ReplyDeleteNo just his first year. He was way better in his WCW run and leaving the WWF was the best thing he could do.
ReplyDeleteFuck you Vince for never giving me Shawn vs Bammer.
ReplyDeleteSorry for the confusion.
ReplyDeleteYep, LOVED that Luger. '89 Luger is great too. When the guy was motivated he could be one entertaining cunt.
ReplyDeleteWell this is also the same guy who cried about having his talent raided when he.....
ReplyDeleteHypocrites gonna hypocrite.
He was some guy who got a huge push in New Japan for whatever reason, and WCW brought him in as part of their relationship with them. Because he was big over their, they had to keep him strong, which meant he almost always won. And because he was often in Japan, he never got a sustained angle, either, do he was a big waste of time.
ReplyDeleteYep. The Savage/Hogan/Sting/Luger dream team loses to the Dungeon at Fall Brawl, due to Hogan & Lex not getting along. Savage & Sting reluctantly dig in behind their respective friend, leading to a babyface-babyface dream match of Sting & Luger vs. Hogan & Savage.
ReplyDelete"I'm confused Marge. Was this a happy ending or a sad ending?"
ReplyDelete"It's an ending, that's enough!"
No worries, I find it amusing that abeyance denotes the absence of a champion, whereas you are perpetually present.
ReplyDeleteI think someone on here a few weeks back mentioned that Time Warner didn't care what WCW did until the Halloween Havoc 98 debacle. That's when they started watching over everything like a hawk.
