They’ll be really mad when it’s Thanos.

I threw a bottle at the guy from Hoobastank once in high school. People make mistakes, maybe it was a kid or something. I very seriously doubt it was a "Me and Don Kernodle were almost murdered in Greensboro" situation Settle down Hollyw.. oh, double post

Dammit, quit talking about ICP. You're making me want to go dig out my Stranglemania 2 VHS (bought for one whole dollar) to see them rewind Combat Toyota getting dumped on her head thirty times in a row.

Don't give Kevin Dunn ideas!

Someone needs to smarten his wife up about kayfabe. It's Hoobastank. No jury in the world would convict you.

Looks like Rowan.

Yeah, that only works in your favor if you're Shawn Michaels.

I dig the arms dealers stuff. Money has been part of Star Wars since day one. Han owed Jabba money. The Empire hired bounty hunters.

I am not a big fan of the whole "back in the day" notions about wrestling, but this is a time I wouldn't mind seeing security just leave the clown who threw the bottle in a back room with some of the boys for a little "talk".

Oh my fuck..... HOW CAN I HEAR HIS LISP IN A GIF!

I have a question: if you play for a team that isn't going to a major bowl wouldn't you demand to go to the Bahamas Bowl? Seriously, where would you rather go: Mobile, Boisie or the freaking Bahamas?

The Masked Cabana and Fortified Hooligan was an epic lucha classic.

The war profiteering head nod is interesting, but I’m not sure they REALLY want to investigate that in a satisfying way, going forward. We’re still going to be shown x-wings wrecking shit, with the expectation that we’re cheering them along. That is, I don’t foresee an episode nine that ends with Kylo and Rey setting aside their lightsabers an sitting down to negotiate peace terms, including mutual disarmament and strict regulations on the military industrial complex. Also: Snoke’s absence from the original trilogy can be explained if he was “dead”—the Plagueis angle—or from a neighboring galaxy. The new canon Thrawn novel makes it very clear that some threat is out there, and part of the Empire’s war mongering is an attempt to get ready for it. I’d be shocked if that never comes back up.

Tell Mark Hamill to have a coke and smile and to shut the fuck up.

Honestly, I'd rather catch that asswhoopin' from a few wrestlers than catch a felony assault charge. The former will fuck you up for a couple of weeks, but the latter will fuck you up for life. I'll take a gang-style beatdown in place of not being able to get a job, thanks.

It had commentary too.

I loved the ICP explaining FFBB's name during their ppv. "He's fat, he's a fuck and he wears a barrel. What more do you want?"

Sodamn Insane, an Iraqi military gimmick in the second Stampede incarnation in the early 2000's.

I am shocked -- SHOCKED -- that nobody's brought up Ken the Box or any of Survival Tobita's other opponents yet

Shelton Benjamin learning his lesson. Full Match: Shelton Benjamin vs. Shawn Michaels - WWE RAW: May 2, 2005

god, Enzo is great. Fuck the haters.

Maybe its some Producers deal.

I can't begin to comprehend how starting a football league could be considered a good idea especially when you've already done it once and it failed miserably.. Am I missing something? We joke about Vince being crazy and maybe even believed yeah maybe he is a little crazy.. but this is beyond crazy right? Like he needs to be in a padded room and they need to take his belt away.

Oh give me a break. Nobody's jumping on this bandwagon. This is pretty much like Coca-Cola deciding "Hey, people aren't drinking soda as much, let's get rid of the old Coke and try New Coke again!" On the bright side, if Vince is too busy failing with football again, maybe RAWs and Smackdowns will get better.

I have said it before in other threads, but kayfabe died for me when I found out Manaukea Mossman was just some dude, and NOT a guy doing a Moss Man gimmick.

And insightful comments on the psyche of wrestlers by Dr. Sidney M. Basil and inside info by WWF expert Tom Pilliard. RIP Dan Shocket.

I JUST FINISHED THE FIRST SIX MEGA MAN GAMES. MY CHILDHOOD AVENGED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would still go with Darth Vader. Adam Driver however plays Kylo like Hayden should have played Anakin.

This guy:

Nope.

The Apter magazines are needed to get a full view of the wrestling landscape at a given point. Along with the dirt sheets and of course the TV. With just one or two you are missing part of the picture

By the way, I don't see many people defending Finn or speaking to how necessary he was. Something that's very glaring about Finn is how pointless he is. I wondered if that's because Poe was originally going to die when they crashed on Jakku. Then when everyone loved Oscar Isaac, his role became bigger and now you have a character who is basically on the same level as Finn. If Poe is dead, perhaps Finn isn't as pointless and Rian Johnson doesn't need to find an adventure to shoehorn into the movie to make use of this extra character. With Poe alive, you're basically doing just that to justify having this other important character to maintain their importance. Then again, Rian Johnson supposedly had this written before TFA even came out. Even still, if that's the case, it still feels like trying to find something for Finn to do.

By the way, the Starrcade '99 show of What Happened When was good. Tony and Conrad cracked me up more than a few times. It's great when Tony just starts calling the match like a lunatic, completely destroying it. Back to Bruce and Conrad, as time has gone on, Conrad has had to change his questions because Bruce just winds up being like, "well you weren't there" or "fuck Dave Meltzer" or "fuck Wade Keller" or "I don't know" or "it didn't happen like that." It was a long time ago, but Conrad called Bruce out on all of his bullshitting and pointed out how Bruce's timeline is full of shit. Bruce responds with that his timeline is the one true source because he documented everything in his book/journal and he gave that to Conrad. Conrad then tells Bruce that he referred to the journal and Bruce didn't write shit about the subject or he did and the date was wildly different. I think it had to do with booking Hogan. Anyway, Bruce was like well I don't know and that's not how I remember it. So Bruce goes from saying that his journal is the one true source of knowledge and when that was wrong then you have to go off of Bruce's memory and it's well documented that Bruce is about the worst source of knowledge because he obfuscates the truth, blatantly lies, issues denials that are bullshit (like the Steiners stuff), and you're just listening to horseshit. It doesn't matter how good the questions are that Conrad asks, Bruce is just about the worst co-host or narrator you could have. He's way too full of shit, he's clearly still protecting himself and others probably in hopes that he'll be hired back, and his memory is garbage because he clearly just makes shit up to fill in the gaps. Bruce is also a dick. He can repeat that "well you weren't there and I was so how would you know?" bullshit until he's blue in the face and what can Conrad really say to that? Nothing because he wasn't there, but there's also no sense in challenging Bruce. It's a lose/lose situation. Also notice how many times Conrad asks who booked this shit or who produced some awful segment and its RARELY Bruce. It's always Vince Russo, or Brian Gewirtz, or Pat Patterson, or someone else and Bruce wasn't there. Well ok them motherfucker, were you there or not because when you're challenged you tell the person that they weren't there and he was, but when asked about so much shit, Bruce wasn't there and it was someone else. And yes, there's times when Bruce may not be producing the segment and he's still on location or he's backstage, but there's plenty of other times where he clearly isn't around and claims to be the source of truth for this shit anyway. This is why I like What Happened When more. Tony was there commentating for everything. He has knowledge of booking decisions and the fun doesn't come from dishing dirt on what happened backstage, the fun comes from being in disbelief at the shit that went on in the ring or what went on in a video package. Tony isn't protecting himself and can let loose. Bruce on the other hand defends so much shit and when he does criticize something it's in the softest way possible.

LOL Either: This is some Bixworthy post history diving OR You caught feelings over those posts and saved them in your back pocket for a rainy day Neither is a good look, my friend

Well...

One thing that was really fucking stupid. All the women are completely fed up with Absolution. So they are all brawling and it's this blood feud and shit but then Steph's music hits and they all stop like the fucking high school principal just showed up and threatened suspension. Terrible.

Meltzer does ratings? Netcop should sue him.

Dragon Ball Super 116... Thank you Toriyama-sama for teaching me to love again.
