  3. CM Punk is Justin Bieber, a tatted-up pussy hound who has a rabid fan base that will support him no matter what.

  5. So I went to WreslteCade and the Fanfest that went along with it yesterday. I had a pretty darn good time. It was the largest indie show I'd ever been to (this place had about 1500 people in attendance, and the largest indie I'd seen before that drew about 50 people). I'm not much of an expert recapper, but I thought I'd share some thoughts that I joked my way through on Twitter last night. FanFest stuff: Reby Sky is trashy, but smells so nice that it makes her hot. Matt Hardy was a really nice dude. His eye creeps me out, though. Tully Blanchard was a nice dude. 7 year old me was so pissed off for shaking that asshole's hand. I asked Manny Fernandez about if dropping the knee on the Invader was a shoot or a work and he offered to knee drop me so I could find out. DDP was amazing. Really cool guy and I told him that I did DDP Yoga. We talked for ten minutes about my workout and he was very genuine and real. It didn't feel carny, unlike... The Rock and Roll Express (specifically Ricky Morton) are carny as fuck. I don't mean that in a negative way, I was flattered to be hustled out of $5 by one of the masters. Cody Hall was a nice dude. He was HUGE. We talked for a minute or two about the Iron Claw and how he wants to bring it back. I wanted to ask him why he's wearing his dad's old gear, but I didn't get around to it. I kept seeing the Boogie Woogie Man and every time I came up to him he was eating. I felt weird bothering that little old dude eating what looked to be a salad out of a ziplock bag, so I avoided him. A LOT of people called me brother, brother. I'm not used to large numbers of people around me that are into wrestling. I talk about it online, but in real life it's something I do alone. My wife will watch NXT with me because she hates Summer Rae, but that's about it. It was strange being at the fanfest because of this. During the intermission I ran over to a coffee shop where I saw a dude with a beard working. We talked about The Arcade Fire and that helped relax me. I guess I'm a self-loathing aging hipster. The Matches: Gunner defeated Robbie E (with Brooke Tessmacher). Before the matches started, I ran into Robbie and Miss Tessmacher coming i to the venue. Miss Tessmacher is so hot that I freaked out when I saw her and she smiled at me. I turned bright red and walked away. Gunner has a great look but he's so goddamn bland. Does he do anything hurty on TV? I know these guys were working light, but still. Robbie E is boring and I couldn't figure out if his act was supposed to be a comedy thing or a serious thing. Next up was a 5 way for the PWX title. Steve Corino, Sonjay Dutt, Hurricane Helms, Adam Page and Caleb Conely were all in this match together. It started out with a really funny Steve Corino promo. He lost immediately after putting up the mic. That's good, because Corino looks less imposing than my high school gym teacher. I've never understood his appeal. Sonjay Dutt was eliminated next. He is the most boring dude in the world. Hurricane was eliminated next. He was sort of there. Adam Page was sort of fun, but Caleb Conely came across well in the match and pulled out the win. I have no idea who the last two dudes were, but they were decent. There was some sort of women's clusterfuck with Maria Kannelis and Gillian Hall, but I barely paid attention to it. Hacksaw Dugan wrestled Davari, and I just feel bad for Hacksaw. His routine is just old and worn out. I will say that he was giving out Ho's during fanfest like Halloween Candy, meanwhile Tony Atlas wouldn't do his laugh for $5. Asshole. Davari was ripped to the gills. The largest part of the card was a giant tag team guantlet match. The less said about the beginning the better. It was neat seeing the Rock and Rolls wrestle, and them coming out with Boogie was one of the best moments of my life, but Jesus Christ there was some bad workers in this match. Buff Bagwell was shitty, and Rick Steiner managed to be even worse, and Demolition was hands down the most depressing thing that I've ever seen. Manny Fernandez was old and barely touching people, and George South played heel while wearing trunks with "I Love Jesus" on the back of them. An old dude sitting near me remarked that he couldn't cheer against him because of that. I laughed. Two teams that I've never heard of, C&C Wrestle Factory and the Bravados, wrestled the last bit of the gauntlet match and it was pretty good. They put on a good match with lots of facial selling and some smartly worked spots. I like C&C a lot. During the intervention I met Mr. Feinstein (or someone that looks just like him) from the video company. I didn't realize that it was him at first. Finally it all clicked. I was going to buy the Jim Crockett Promotions documentary from him when temptation got the best of me. I asked how much the DVD was, and he said $30. I replied back "lol, I'll pretend you said $18" and started laughing. He claimed to have not heard me. I walked away quickly and bought the DVD from Highspots. The last two matches was a Tommy Dreamer/CW Anderson I Quit Match and a Matt Hardy/Carlito ladder match. The Dreamer match was guys that wanted to work light and have a hardcore match at the same time. Dreamer won, and after it was over and he left the ring the remaining guys tried to make the crowd give CW Anderson a standing ovation. They weren't having it. Matt Hardy is the new Ricky Morton. That lazy eyed psycho will be able to tour the Carolinas and make money off of lower-middle-class trailer park women until the day he dies. It's pretty incredible. With that being said, he is a boring as fuck worker. He throws a decent punch, but that's about it. The less said about Carlito the better.

  9. It pains me to say it because his spot feels like a result of booking decisions but the answer is HHH. He's the only main event heel (other than lesnar) who hasn't had to take credibility damaging losses to either Punk, Cena, Sheamus or Bryan in the last year. Let him play the cowardly heel with an enormous ego who never wrestles. Have him use his position of power to avoid having defend the title. He'll be forced into wrestling once a month on ppv. His lineup of yes men and enforcers can fill up time on raw/smack down. Every title match would actually matter and the heat would be nuclear.

  13. I hung out with Shelton Benjamin in a strip club. Nice guy. Also got drunk with Eric Watts from Tough Enough at 'Mania a few years back. He sat talking to my table for a while. Said, I quote, "fuck the pussy. I'm gonna sit and talk wrestling. I'm a fan like you guys." This is the problem with modern wrestling.

  15. I found the whole thing a little sad. In my younger days, I would make damn sure I was at RAW when it came to OKC in the best possible seats I could get. Now, I get home from work, and didn't remember they were even here until two minutes into the show. I kept waiting for something to happen to make me regret not being there live, but it just never did. The Shield were great, and I loved the finish, but everything else was so forgettable. Aside from Cole's weird heeling on Oklahoma for no reason. Considering you call every Rhodes/Shield match the greatest match in wrestling history, I just think you're a big fan of hyperbole.

  22. Over this side of the pond its pretty much the same. We had no real need for the doctor to come in, I had complete faith in Rachel and Natalie (the midwife and her padawan, as she got introduced to me) At the end of it, they do this for a living, they know the signs, they know I'm going to be a blubbering wreck (which i was) they know she's going to be in a shit ton of pain and they know that after all the screams, shouts, threats to cut my dick off, we'll have a bundle of joy looking vaguely like winston churchill. Mrs Red was cleared to go to the midwife led birthing unit. We took a tour round both bits before hand and I'm really fucking glad it was on the MLBU side and not the doctors side. Holy shit, that place was like a gulag. institutional green, lights flickering don the murky hallways, and occasional glimpses of screaming women. Was half expecting a puppet to be riding a trike down one of the hallways. In other news, we may have just had our first independent steps. Hands off the walker, one or two steps, then she realises gravity works and crumples in a heap, before giggling and trying again. 14 months old today, finally learned daddy beer. life is sho nuff good.

  24. TRUE WRESTLING ENCOUNTERS - 1) I already recounted on here about the time I peed next to RVD and saw him lift up the right leg of his singlet to do so. 2) So I moved to Philly for college in 1995. I used to go to the message boards on Prodigy way back then. Stevie Richards was known to post there. As a joke, I told him he should come up and hang out w/ me at my college. He took me up on that offer! It was like my second weekend of school and I hung out with The Original King of Swing. He was a blast! We went to some dumb party and then left. We then went to the lounge to watch that week's ECW. There were these lunkheads in there and I asked to put on ECW. One of them saw the credits and started saying stuff like "Wrestling is such crap. This stuff is fake--" and right then is when they showed a clip of Stevie getting his ass thrown through a table. I've never seen someone backpedal from a moment quicker. The episode in question had one of Foley's legendary anti-ECW promos and he was telling me about where they filmed those clips and stuff like that. He got in touch w/ me a few days after because he used his gym ID to get signed into the dorm and begged me not to get it so I could protect his real name. I did just that. KAYFABE LIVES! It was seriously one of the funnier nights of my life. 3) I was not there for this. But my buddies were at the Melrose Diner in Philly in like '98/'99 or so and ran into FIT FINLAY and MENG who were in town for a house show or something. My buddies were completely hammered. They struck up a conversation by saying "Yo Fit!" My buddy touched The Monster Meng's hair and also asked to get into a Tongan Death Grip. "You fucking with me maan." That was Meng's response. 4) I hosted a comedy show here in Philly for years. There's a decent crossover w/ Philly comedy and Chikara. I managed to co-host one with Colt Cabana. He's also been on my brother's cable access show in NYC a few times. Colt's a truly great guy and hilarious. The then-Claudio Castiglioni and Sara Del Rey came to this show and judged the Alex Wright Memorial Dance contest. Claudio and Sara are also ridiculously nice human beings and great people.

  37. The WrestleMania 2000 fatal four way match is hilarious. First I went outside the ring and let Foley/Rock destroy the Big Show, never once looking at me. Rolled into the ring for the pin for the first elimination. Then The Rock runs over to the announce table and just stands there until I go over to do the historical objective. Next I just throw Foley into the ring and pin him without having to do anything else and then The Rock becomes fucking superhuman and destroys me with the 4 Rock Bottoms he has saved up from beating everyone else and I lose. Add to that the complexly unbreakable stairs (due to a hidden objective) and Foley getting stuck 2 feet in the air until I brought him down with a spine buster. I've really enjoyed WrestleMania mode so far, but this match is really fucking stupid. edit: 2nd time through and I just lost to The Rock after he used a pedigree on me. Ugh.

  39. On the chance encounter front, showing up way early for an Indy show in Fairfield, CA, walking out the door with the intent of hitting up that Dairy Queen I saw on arriving before the show, then doing a literal double-take as I walked right past Misawa entering the building. I'd like to have had some more to add to this story, but the power of speech was not at my command just at the moment.

  41. Nakamura seems like a great call. Not that it's ever likely to happen as he's probably doing just fine in New Japan and WWE are unlikely to want him, but they could bring him in tomorrow as some kind of crazed, drunken knee-assassin and he'd be one of the best things on any of their shows. I'd also pay good money to see Yujiro Takahashi turn up as the fourth member of 3MB, complete with spectacular porno-sax entrance music.
