I get what you're saying but maybe he's doing the good deed in front of a camera so the 100K+ followers he has can see it, be inspired and do their own good deeds as well?

That's an impressive amount of stereotypes in one GIF, even by WCW standards.

Rollins vs. Morrison sounds like the match being played on a loop while my eyes are forced open Clockwork Orange style in my bleakest nightmares. So that's going to happen.

CM Punk on Hulk Hogan: WWE Backstage personality and former Superstar CM Punk had no kind words for Hulk Hogan during a recent appearance on Windy City Live's 2 Minute Warning. 'The Voice Of The Voiceless' may not have loaned his takes to this week's FS1 sister show, but he had plenty to add to the Chicago-based short, much to the pleasure and surprise of host Ryan Chiaverini. 'The Hulkster came up during discussion of prior legends, with Punk noting that "I wasn't a Hogan guy. I've met him. I like him even less now". As the host jokingly suggested that Punk was "crushing his childhood dreams", the former WWE Champion retorted with the humorously curt "f*ck him! Fuck Hulk Hogan.

Keith Lee popping up next to Balor like Jaws coming up out of the water is everything.

Ratings thoughts equals *fart sound. This company has put on some of the best television wrestling I’ve ever seen. I look forward to seeing it more than any show since twin peaks-the return. The roster is fantastic and the booking has been overall excellent. I have nothing to complain about. Further, I really hope they know to be more patient than the boo birds. I think they do. They came into an industry suffering a 15-20 year drought. Establishing stars and a weekly show is gonna take more than two fucking months. Really looking forward to tonight’s excellent line-up.

I'm not at all the biggest Morrison fan, though I liked Lucha Underground Morrison more than most versions. That said, I think they should push him to the moon. They've killed almost everyone else over the years. He's a recognized name that'll appeal to people who were watching at various points in the last ten years (not as much so as Rey or Matt Hardy but that's not the direction they want to go with them). He's credible, established, and undamaged. There's almost no one on the roster you can say that about. Get 6-9 months out of pushing him hard. If it works, great. If it doesn't, you'll probably get a couple of months grace out of it so you can prep a guy like Keith Lee.

It doesn't take away at all from his gesture, and I don't mean to be a big old fuckhead, but there is something that rings very hollow when someone does a good deed in front of a camera. Just do the fucking deed. Now that I'm done being all bitchmade, I will say that it is awesome of him to hook that person up with clothes and food. I work in social services, and even here in California, people are cold and wet and bummed this time of year. Shelters don't exist anymore in a lot of places, and the ones that do are sometimes just as toxic as street living. Not enough people are willing to give, be it time or food or clothes or care.

Respect.

I'd rather them lose the ratingz war for a bit here (will NXT sustain its rating or revert back to where it was or something in-between?) than start hotshotting stuff. I'm not in love with this week's lineup but it's not bad either. Gimme tags and top guys vs. midcarders over what Raw has been for the last 10-15 years.

Btw, I think I’m done with Marko Stunt. He’s just not good enough to make up for the lack of size. I enjoyed the way Jimmy Havoc sold for him on Dark a few weeks back, he wouldn’t go down totally on moves and looked more pissed off by Stunt than hurt, but dudes are selling for him as if he’s 6’ and it’s dumb. I’ll keep an open mind but he might be a bridge too far for my suspension of disbelief.

LOL. Ron, you won a division title at 7-8-1. That's like being proud of being NFC East champ this year.

Okay, I certainly don't think you need three damned YouTube videos to illustrate your point. And to answer your pearl-clutching... There is accountability for bad reffing. Referees are constantly scrutinized in the league, with employees dedicated exclusively to finding where referees fucked up. This is an egregious mistake (that the Rockets *did not challenge*), and the ref crew in question will probably be: severely fined, demoted off playoff duties, assigned to less competitive games, suspended, and possibly fired. Your team lost, and that sucks. But speaking as a ref, kindly stick it when you say there's no accountability for referees. It's one of the hardest jobs out there and the only time you will EVER be noticed is when you are human, and fuck up.

So 100 guys are going win 2 Super Bowls? That means I would have to be alive for at least 200 more years. I will take that deal.

Pretty sure the Rockets lost tonight because they crapped the bed in the 4th and were outscored 34-18. Motherfuckers cost me $$$ for not playing D and not closing out a 7-14 team...nevermind one bad call lol

I won't speculate about his motives, but that's the opposite of the old-school working handshake.

Turns out today is the United Nations International Day of People with Disabilities. I'm in that camp with Cerebral Palsy. We were once told I wouldn't ever speak properly. Thanks to my loving parents, little sister and the speech therapist I went to for years, we proved that prediction wrong. My CP causes me problems but it's part of who I am. I can't change that. People should be treated as equals xxx.

I really didn’t miss the ratings wars the first time they went away. Not sure who wanted them back but studying quartet hour breakdowns makes me want to stick my head in a blender.

Bad News likely would have refused to go - during a tour in Japan he felt that Dusty was racist and so refused to do a job to him in a tag match. Other matches in this alternate-history timeline that would be good: Midnight Express vs. Windham/Rotundo, and Rock-n-Roll vs. Adonis/Murdoch.

Got my Godzilla set today. What a big box.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary

Man, 4 and 5 weren't even really Die Hard movies. Just action movies with the McClane's in them. And I only put 3 above 2 because Irons decided to chew every fucking piece of scenery in 3 like Rickman did in 1 rather than play it straight like Sadler and Amos did.

Maybe if Harden shot better than 11/38 and 4/20 from 3 (and Westbrook 7/30 & 1/6) last night, no one would be bitching about one missed call.

Kai/Ripley feels like its happening too early. Assuming Shayna interferes do they have her and Kai join forces or does Kai stick to herself?

Nick's currently in the World Tag League tournament in NJPW, tagging with Jeff Cobb.

No one really knows. The best guess is the doghouse for Jimmy's drinking.

You have a good excuse - he's only wrestled on TV once, to job to Raul Mendoza on NXT. He'd also been languishing at the PC and on the Florida loop for three years prior, so I'm not sure going back to being a wrestler is going to work out for him. Presumably still in trouble for their refusal to stop getting drunk and running into the police.

NSFW but suitable for Christmas as it's Die Hard (1988):

I am sure it is mentioned elsewhere (probably the RAW thread but that place scares me) but the WWE announced that Dio Maddin won't be returning to commentary on RAW. They are going with the "he still wants to be a wrestler" excuse. Samoa Joe will be the fill in until he is cleared to wrestle

Abby vs Sika from Amarillo 1977.

Happy to see Drew looking strong, whoever it’s at the expense of. He has one of the biggest upsides either as face (see Drew in Impact) or heel. Heres hoping he’s not just shoehorned in as a ‘heavy’ with a channel-changer like Ziggler yet again, and gets to be his own man.

Ron Rivera was the JTG of head coaches.

The best part about the nWo was that Nash and Hogan would never want to job but Scott Hall wouldn't win a match for 6 months and didn't give a single damn.

SUPERSTARS shouldn't have to be worrying about mortgage payments.

If anybody's been holding off on Fire Pro World for PS4, it's like $15 in their End Of Year Sale. Some of the DLC is discounted as well!
