Still hard to believe David was only 25 when he died, one of the most fiery babyfaces ever.
You know the world was at his feet when Harley Race wanted to do the honours for him-

Twitter are memorialising her... despite complicity in her suicide. Fuck social media

it's a shame Danielson got injured and never won the NWA belt during this "Reclaiming the Glory" tournament timeframe.
I remember having high hopes for this as the resurgence of the NWA

Tajiri is the wrestler I would most like to meet because I once patted him on the back before a match at an ECW show in like 2000 and my hand came away smelling like furniture polish and I still want to know what was going on with that.
Conversely, I remember reading about someone patting RVD on the back at an ECW show and saying it was like a swamp and he got a weird rash after

It was believable if you believed Shawn's investments went up his nose in the 80s and 90s.
THATS A SHOOT!

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Bret at no point turned heel in 1997. He was a babyface of the highest magnitude.
And an underrated promo. Don’t think he’s ever got respect on the mic for that run

Anytime someone says the words ‘tough’ or ‘hard’ this is the picture that pops in my head

The guy who posted it is also posting some rare stuff like the Gunns vs RnR WWF match and some JCP Florida TV that is super rare.

That Barry Windham v Dory match he posted is pretty good. I know Junior isn’t to most people’s taste these days but the clash of styles really works

I don't think there was a scarier wrestler to me in the late 80s/early 90s than Doc
Shit take time, but I’m sticking with this opinion having just watched a load of 88-89 NWA and having seen my fair share of AJPW: Steve Williams is one of the most overrated wrestlers ever. The awesome power, ability to drop people on their heads in Japan, and athletic background which JR tells me about ad nauseum do not excuse the clumsiness, terrible promos, lack of charisma, miscues and bad timing.

Gosh, I remember when Csonka first started writing at 411, he was a real champion for TNA in the early years. Coupled with JD Dunn’s excellent reviews they really helped banish the memory of Scott Keith from that site

Folks, I want you to know I’ve just watched a Big Bully Busick squash from 1991 wherein he performs a Skull Crushing Finale and Rainmaker in the space of 3 minutes. A true innovator

I would love to know the thought process behind Cody with the truck, because it was lame as fuck, and extremely sports entertainy.
I can’t decide if it was worse than the throne smash cringefest

I was looking at the Deluxe edition since it has all the DLC, and for most CAWs you need them. Plus it has characters that would be nice to have. I’m sure I can find a decent price on eBay for that edition if I really searched. Might do that this weekend at work, actually.
Definitely get the deluxe. I bought the basic version in my ignorance then ended up paying through the nose to get all the addons to get the best caws of the likes of Jack Brisco and Stan Hansen

Just got done watching the 92 G1. What an odd show. However, it has to be said that big gold really suited Chono

Rick & Scott Steiner defeated WCW Tag Team Champions Arn Anderson & Bobby Eaton in a steel cage match to win the titles when Rick pinned Eaton after catching him coming off the top and hitting a belly to belly suplex as Rick was on Anderson's shoulders
I remember this being covered in the magazine, how was it? It looked great and I’d never seen a tag match take place in a cage before

I love Taker’s XXVII entrance so much. It kills me they didn’t get the rights to Ain’t No Grave in perpetuity. It’s like when they dubbed over Voodoo Chile for Hogan/Rock.

Cannon ball run the wrestling match was super entertaining to me.
I was trying for the life of me to find the perfect analogy for the MITB matches and this is it. Kind of reminded me of the hardcore title stuff from Wrestlemania X8 in a lot of ways, highly entertaining

I believe it was Johnny Ace that was booking during that late 2000-2001 period.
I don’t think he had the book but it was him who built Lance Storm’s programme and got him massively over

Any clues on what else is lined up for Untold? Really enjoyed the Triple H/cactus one.
As I’m furloughed I’ve been going through WCW PPV/Clash’s and am up to 89. It’s really weird seeing the transition from JCP to WCW, you’ve got Jim Herd announcing how they will continue to fly the flag for the NWA and respect it’s values and heritage on one show then on the next you’ve got Norman the Lunatic and Ding Dongs

He assumed because they were southern that there's no way they could talk or sound intelligent.
Blows my mind that in 2020, he still thinks like that

One of my big wrestling gaming regrets is never having the opportunity to play any of the King of Colosseum on PS2. The rosters were insane
