I did like the shakey cam/documentary style way of shooting Bischoff pioneered for a while. Very unique and made the show look really different from Raw or SmackDown.
That and when the heels would meet backstage, the camera would be shooting through a window or crack in the door. i always thought that looked better and made more sense than the WWE style. Where the heels stand in front of the camera, acting like it's not there, reciting their nefarious plan to fuck over the babyface.

But more importantly, does he want sugar?

Jeff Jarrett will stop the giant bug invasion.
Correction: Jeff Jarrett and Barood will stop the giant bug invasion.

I'm out of touch. From an interest level and just an overall entertainment level, it doesn't come in the top half of Wrestlemania's. Taker losing the streak was a total TNA move.
As a guy who has watched TNA for the last 12 years, I can tell you its not a TNA move. TNA would have been sure to bury Taker (no pun) way before he could even reach 2-0 at Mania. Taker losing was a legit shock and I'm glad they pulled the trigger on it. If Taker would have beat Lesnar then WWE would have had only 1 Mania moment (depending on how you feel about Cesaro's awesome strength) with Bryan. Good move and people will always remember Mania as Taker's last stand.
If this was TNA, Brock would have still won but his contract would have expired a week ago.

A Fallout 3 style, First Person RPG, set in the Marvel Universe. Where you can use gear from heroes or villains you've defeated. I wanna live in a world where the Punisher can roam New York on a Goblin Glider, wearing Doc Ocks tentacles but with an M16 in each hand.

Is it extra for him to show up wearing the big hat? I'm uh......asking for a friend.

Was watching the Raw from 98, with Austin riding the Zamboni. I noticed during that segment Vince had the "Winged Eagle" belt in the ring. I remember they'd switched to the newer belt 6 months before, on the Raw after Wrestlemania 14. And I don't remember ever seeing the older belt on TV again. Did it ever show up again, other than that one time?
-
Just started watching the Rumble 92 show and the best thing is that it has the real Royal Rumble music with Vince listing the participants. I recall this being re-dubbed when it aired on CoD, so this surprised me.
Vince sounding like he's about to have a stroke from naming the participants is the most Wrestling thing ever.

Has anyone found any AWA or Mid South footage on VOD?

A drinking game on the Raw commentary would leave you plastered by the end of hour one.
In fact, it sounds like JBL is in the middle of a drinking game every time he's on the air.
He was drunk while doing the alternate commentary for the first One Night Stand. If you haven't listened to it, you need to. Just for his reaction to the Tanaka/Awesome match.

I never understood wanting to get fired. Just quit. Unless you can't quit, then by all means develop a Matt Hardy gut & blowup in the ring after the first lockup.
Well, at least in Canada, you don't get severance pay or social assistance if you quit, if you get fired/laid off, that's a different matter.
Same here. However, WWE wrestlers are technically "independent contractors", they aren't eligible to receive unemployment benefits. Are wrestlers still paid while they're under the 90 day no-complete clause? That might be a difference?
KC James said on Cabana's podcast that he was actually able to get Unemployment Insurance from WWE. Because the state he lived in (I think Kentucky?) said he wasn't an Independent Contractor.

Do people just not understand that Nielsen ratings are based on statistical sample sizes (which are remarkably accurate) and not just adding up how many Nielsen boxes are tuned into whatever show at any given time?
That you don't know anyone with a Nielsen box is not surprising. The television watching population is massive. The sample size does not need to be that large, and especially not if you and the people you know are part of a large demographic (and chances are you and the people you know are both part of a large demographic and are the same demographic).
The Nielsen boxes are a statistically significant sample, but all they tell is how many TVs are tuned to what channel, not how many eyeballs are actually watching those TVs. Sports programs, and we'll include WWE under that category, tend to be "event" shows, where people gather to watch them. It's what makes sports programs so valuable, because A) they're watched by more people than the ratings indicate, and B) because they're more likely to be watched live rather than DVRed.
Nielsen boxes do take this into account. They make you create profiles for the people in your home, along with the demographic information about each person. Then every 15 minutes, you're prompted to enter who is currently in the room watching that specific TV. It's how Nielsen gets demographic breakdowns for quarter hours.

Skittles getting all that free advertising thanks to Jim Ross and those Attitude Era Raws. Unless they edit them out.
They'd better not.
Now's the time for Milton Bradley to relaunch Karate Fighters.

I still have no idea how the Doctor escaped from his own timeline (where he was stuck in the season finale).
I think we should just assume he walked out, and be done with it. Before Moffat can write a 6 part series finale, where River saves the Doctor; by hiding a TARDIS withing a TARDIS, and pulling the universe inside out.

Solomon Crowe's theme music is the dial-up sound. That's guaranteed heel heat right there.

It might get them heel heat from the FCC. The beginning tones of his theme are from the Emergency Alert System. If they broadcast it on television, it could accidentally trigger the EAS and override other broadcasts. It actually happened a couple years ago with an ARCO radio commercial.

Why would they hold the announcement in Santa Clarita though? That's over 300 miles away.

And it renders AJ completely powerless against New Jack.

Yeah, Endemol is a great guess.
Does Rovert still post here?

- As for a potential buyer for TNA, the one company that I have heard that is interested is located outside of the U.S., but has strong ties to television domestically. I don't know if they are the leading candidate that Dave Meltzer recently mentioned in The Wrestling Observer.
International company with strong ties to domestic television? Is Simon Cowell getting into the wrestling business?
It's probably Endemol. Their Indian branch co-produced Ring Ka King with TNA, and their US branch produces tons of shitty reality shows. A wrestling company is a perfect fit.

FIngers crossed that Jarret found some India billionaire to buy the company. Then convinces Khali to jump ship and feud with Scott Steiner, selling out soccer stadiums in Mumbai.
They'll still do a 1.1 on Thursday nights though.

Not sure if this has been posted here before, looks like it came out last year, but i don't remember seeing it.
Its a 10min Punisher short with the guy who played him in the 2004 movie and Ron Perlman, thought i'd stick it up since hes a favorite around here.
I know this is going back a bit. But the story about that short, was that Thomas Jane just really likes The Punisher; and decided to make his own short with a volunteer cast and crew, one Saturday morning in Downtown LA.
