The aborted Andre/Taker program would have been the business.
First I’ve heard of this, any more info?
Regarding aborted Andre angles, was he supposed to make a return to face the Natural Disasters after Earthquake put him out of action or was he just too beat up?

Time for Vince to try and revive something else.
He could sponsor @OSJ‘s darts team and weasel his way onto it...

god Fourtune was so cringe. A bunch of fucking dweebs in department store suits who looked like they were going to prom with their grandad.
Aces and Eights on the other hand was the last great stable IMO.

I always thought Rick Steiner would have been the most fun gym teacher. I just imagine him doing the gimmick the whole time, wrestling kids, tackling people, generally acting like a fool. The stories you'd have in that class. The stories.
Just don’t mess up a spot or you’ll get Iizuka’d

You're one of those people who sends Cornette video of every single "invisible hand grenade" indy match to purposefully piss him off, aren't you?
No Southside Jim I am not. I’ve just been around @BEN! for too long

Doing a BB rewatch as well and it really makes me appreciate how well executed Better Call Saul is.
Said it before and I’ll say it again: BB might be the ‘better’ show but BCS is the one I enjoy the most

So when did the fanny pack die out among wrestlers? Cause that’s, what, 99/00?

WrestleMania IV is a really strange show for me. It was one of the very few shows I had on VHS as a kid, so I've seen it more often than damn near every other show ever, and it's got a warm blanket of nostalgia comfort for me.
But, objectively... It's boring as fuck
Same. I vividly remember asking for it for Christmas because I figured I was getting the most bang for my buck.
Strike Force v Demolition remains my favourite match from the show

Far be it from me to talk about wrestling psychology, but the thing that annoyed me about Orton v Edge was how every count was a 9 count. No need as it builds no suspense for those times when a 9 count is justified
Enjoyed the two unique segment/matches, they really showed what new things you can achieve and present in the context of ‘sports entertainment’, but outside of the situation we’re in I don’t know that they can work as a regular thing with live crowd. That said, I see no reason why we can’t have Sting v Taker in this context now!

@jaedmc I’ll be honest, it was a struggle to not vote Barry but that would’ve mainly just been for Windham

Now this is the type of conspiracy theory I can get behind:
He then went on to steal the show at 7... and I guess you could argue 8 (but to me Bret v Piper has that honour)

Sooo... has old man Taker ditched the spooky stuff and reverted to Big Evil or is that promo a one off?

The CAC were apparently supposed to be getting set up here for an eventual tag title reign... which never came because Zenk quit... for reasons? Eh.
Pay dispute coming out of WM3 according to Martel's RF shoot. Can-Am's weren't getting a 50/50 split because, y'know, Martel was not only senior he was also the better worker, the bigger name and the bigger draw. Zenk, being an ingrate who didn't realise how much Martel had done for his career, got pissed about that and quit. Tito got slotted in his place.

Bourne was around so many great things just all over the place. Kind of amazing really. Like Bourne was front and center for the Duggan gorilla suit angle episode of Mid South with the amazing tag with DiBiase against JYD and Olympia.
He was part of The Rat Pack there, widely identified as the first stable in wrestling

I don’t get to see much 205 so Bryan working Gulak has been my first real exposure to him outside of the PowerPoint stuff he used to do. Loving what I see so far

I wasn’t sure about my timelines as to whether his run was aborted due to Watts being fired or he just lost faith in him.
I remember it being a huge shock and mark our moment when I saw the highlights of the win on TV, but no real follow up

Okay, real talk. My new fantasy match is Minnesota High School vs West Texas State in a survivor series elimination match.

APRIL 2020 WRESTLING DISCUSSION
in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING

According to Barry’s RF shoot, because New Blackjacks weren’t being used, Windham asked Vince’s blessing to get Blackjacks booked in RWTL to get an extra payday and he allowed it
