  1. No Gregg, you don't get to tell us what to do. We're gonna complain. And we're gonna complain hard. And whatever happens at the next PPV, you have the right to compose a 1300 word post about how great it was. That's how this relationship works.

  2. 1300 words? What about the second match and rest of the card?

  3. RE: Cruise Sorry for the 'WELL HERE'S A STORY ABOUT LIVING IN LA I AM THAT GUY' but I really love this story. My wife and I both work on the Warner Lot, but I work in an office where VIPs rarely tread and she usually works in Building 1, which is where they all come for meetings. She is the lobby receptionist, so she greets VIPs and calls who ever it is they are meeting with, and that person comes down to get them. It's that way for everyone. Will Ferrell came in on her first day and sat and waited. The producers of Game of Thrones came in and waited. At the end of her first week, a motorcycle pulls up to the door because of course it does, and the helmet comes off and it's Tom Cruise, who just swings in, flashes the Cruise smile and says 'Just here to see Barry' and just goes upstairs. And then he pauses at the top of the stairs, points at her, and says "You're new, right? Never seen you." She just sort of nods and he smiles real big and vanishes upstairs. Wife is horrified. She has not done her job but also, do you just tell Tom Cruise to hold the fuck up? How does that even work? A little while later, Cruise comes back down, this time flanked by like, most of our executives and their people. He comes to a completely halt on the stairs, stopping everyone, points at Torlin (wife. Norwegian.) and says to Barry Meyer, the CEO "She's new. Fantastic, though. What's your name again?" She stammers out a 'Torlin.' and he snaps his finger and goes 'that's right. Great name. Great work. She's doing great work, you guys.' And then he leads the hurricane down a random hallway. She does not blink for an hour. I have no real clue what that story says about his personality, but I like to think that he knew he had screwed her a bit and to prevent some shitty executive assistant from being like YOU SHOULD HAVE STOPPED HIM AND MADE HIM WAIT, he turned the tide for her.

  4. Destiny is one half of a really great FPS and one half of one of the worst AAA games ever made. It's a combination that is inspiring. Rage being mostly what it inspires, but still, impressive.

  5. Movie idea: Liam Neeson and Denzel Washington kidnap each other's daughters. It's how World War 3 starts.

  6. At least they didn't bait and switch with Devitt on the name. Someone suggested that they name Steen "Jake _____" and team them together. A couple of you will get that.

  13. They better live up to their promise of fixing the loot drops and not making the encrypted engrams and their color random. When I say "they better," not like I can make them or anything. The game is already very successful. But seriously, like get it together.

  15. No Lashley at BFG according to Jimmy Suzuki from W-1: From TNA's site: Bram. Nobody's favorite is Bram. The innovative young minds behind TNA's biggest PPV of the year: https://twitter.com/JimmySuzuki1/status/514773209322098688/photo/1 Tenay, Ryder, Vader's grandpa, Fat Andy Capp, Suzuki They should give me the book. Following the integration and utilization of my theory of Stud Stablization, I feel confident that everything will be running at peak optimization in no time. First, a change in the broadcast booth. New team of Josh Mathews, Mongo McMichael, and J. Puppet Levescue. Mike Tenay knows who J. Puppet Levescue is. It's the former Puppet H. Every week, Mongo berates J. Puppet's wardrobe choices. "Oh, look at that no good J. Puppet over there, dressed up like a cowboy. You must have rocks in your head, baby, if you're over there supporting James Storm and his Revolution, baby. And lemme tell all you good folks out there in TV wonderland something, baby, listen to Mongo, baby, you ain't gonna find action like this anywhere else so keep it tuned in right here to Impact, baby!"

  17. perhaps the first Ultimate Warrior was the result of Fritz Von Erich's work with the students of Wernher Von Braun to create a clone of his son Kerry in order to create more Von Erichs. Then Fritz got cheap, Warrior was released without mentioning him as a Von Erich, and the Von Erichs just bought Lance Von Erich instead.

  18. I never got the complete hatred for Ford Fairlane. I know Dice is a polarizing figure, but for pure silliness, it wasn't a bad movie. Plus, Lauren Holly looking the hottest she's ever looked on film.

  24. THAT WAS SPECIAL AND DIFFERENT BECAUES...SHUT UP THATS WY BECAUUSE Of course it was special and different, it was before interleague play started. So it was only the National League clubs, the truest of the true, the sincerest of the sincere, that beauteous and righteous land of hard-nosed baseballery where pitchers bat for themselves, that had the opportunity to show the proper respect and support for The Wizard of Oz. Plus, my fifth-grade teacher told us she saw him shoveling his own sidewalk once after a snowstorm. Classy and majestic.

  25. It also helps that the WCW midcarders weren't working the same exact match as every other WCW midcarder. You'd get a cruiserweight bout, then two guys trying to punch through each others' faces, then a nice matwork match. You'd also get matches with clear clashes between technique (as when Dean Malenko would wrestle a Mexican cruiserweight). It's hard to tell the WWE midcarders apart when they're all wrestling the same formula match. I fully believe that one of the reasons that both the Shield and the Wyatts got over (in a multitude of reasons) is that they were wrestling trios matches that had just enough of a different structure from typical tag matches to catch everyone's eyes.

  27. Easily one of the most emotional moments i've ever had watching sports-- it would have been nice to go out with a ring but God damn-- not everyone gets the Bettis finish. It's no exxaggetation-- I can't rememeber a time before Jeter-- i might be 26 but childhood just ended tonight officially

  29. If you're not on the main event-level or in an angle, it seems like the whole "want to entertain/have a good match" crap supersedes wanting to win. Like, we all know you get paid the same either way whether you win or lose, but at least make like you want to win because it will put you up on the ranks for an IC or US title shot, or a match bonus. Jae wrote a blog post about this that's in his sig and sums it all up better than I could.

  31. I doubt they'd do it, but a Fatal 4-Way in a Hell In The Cell would be insane. It also seems like they're headed in that direction. Orton's teasing his hatred of Rollins already and Ambrose is obviously going to attack Cena kinda soon.

  32. So the only correct answer here is 'no Dre, you're right. I wouldn't be shocked because look at the arguments we have on our side, anything else would be shit.' This is gonna be a great conversation, I guess? If it's not up for discussion, why post it on a discussion board? Just say it out loud to a mirror and call it a day.

  33. Here is my favorite Beyond Match of the Year, and one of the better matches in the world this year Biff Busick v. Timothy Thatcher Beyond Wrestling "Secret Show" 4/13 These are two of the three (along with Drew Gulak) of the most exciting new group of guys in Indy wrestling. They are working Euro style matches, although Euro style that owes more to Billy Robinson and Terry Rudge then Johnny Saint and Mark Rocco. Tight agressive mat wrestling and nasty uppercuts and punches. Nothing fancy just hard hitting and rough. The big highspot was an uppercut that knocked Busick into the wall, and came off as a bigger deal then any of the crazy shit in earlier matches. I loved Busick finish here too, great sensible counter to lock in the choke nastier and looked really tight, I bought Thatcher going out. I could watch these guys work each other a ton of times.

  41. I liked it a lot more than the first one. If nothing else, I was happy to see Christopher Lambert back on the big screen again. What's the last movie he did that got a wide theatrical release in the USA before that? Mortal Kombat? Fuckin' Southland Tales, which was a HUGE piece of shit. It had an unbelievable dream cast with a few neat performances and a few interesting moments and ideas, but was mostly one big inexcusable waste of endless potential.

  45. "The Great Train Store." I've watched that Luger debut countless times over the years, be it repeat Nitro viewings, documentaries, best-of compilations, etc. but every single time... "The Great Train Store." I was, and remain, a huge WCW fan but there's something about the silliness of holding the first Nitro in a mall that I honestly just can't help but shake my head at, given how it all ended up for them. It's just so very... WCW.
