  1. Oh shit I didn't consider the ramifications of JJ Watt playing on 9/11. He'll ride into the stadium in a military Hummer driven by GWB and Ted Nugent, wearing a Chris Kyle t-shirt, and punch out anyone who has the temerity to not stand for the anthem. He'll make sure to Instrgram it all, of course.
  2. Wait wait so if Reigns beats Owens in a non title match he gets added to a 3 way? This shit is so dumb. And didn't Smackdown just do the same thing? I guess the concept of protecting titles is too "rasslin" for Vince. Also, good riddance to ADR. Dude is boring.
  3. I thought he was being groomed for a feud with Make a Difference Fatu, no? Speaking of Islanders, what about Barbarian being brought in under his real name as the third and/or replacement Headshrinker? Is that a play on the old "Wendy/Welcome to Jamaica Mon Have a Nice Day" joke? If so, Hayes' takeoff on it makes no sense. Speaking of Hayes and also speaking of proteges, I remember Hayes taking promising young upstart Steve Cox under his wing and nicknaming him Steve "Do It To It" Cox. It was short lived and is definitely a candidate for the worst nicknames hall of fame.
  4. I remember Terry Funk, while he was an announcer partnered with Chris Cruise in WCW on one of the syndicated shows, hyping the debut of "Big Titan" from England for a week or two. Then it never happened.
  5. 1) Nobody active will ever go after Vince in court because wrestlers are all marks who, no matter what, always think they have one more WWE run in them. 2) Nobody past active age will go after Vince because wrestlers never really retire and you never know when WWE might need you. If the Punk lawsuit goes through, maybe he should go scorched earth and just go after WWE on the independent contractor thing. But, see point one. Lawsuit or not, another Punk WWE run is not outside the realm of possibility.
  6. I remember seeing pics of Haku's coronation in WWF Magazine and LeDuc was in the group shot, though I never saw him work TV. I assume he was on that set of tapings but then they never aired his matches.
  7. Dana couldn't get off her back because those massive new performance enhancements were weighing her down.
  8. I have a small computer in my living room that is connected to one of my TV's HDMI inputs. I use a bluetooth keyboard/touchpad combo to control it and that's how I watch WWE Network and any other online stuff or legally downloaded content. It's a $300 - 400 expenditure that I don't regret.
  9. I saw a guy crossing the parking lot at a Petsmart a few days ago wearing this. The only acceptable variation on the overdone "keep calm..." thing.
  10. I'd be absolutely delighted to find out that these are just token meatheads that HHH hired for a long con. Like Vince asks for a status report on the Performance Center so HHH sends these workout videos to Vince, who watches them half turgid (who am I kidding? Completely erect.) and is like GODDAMN PAL NXT IS DOING GREAT! THE FUTURE IS IN GOOD HANDS! LOOK AT THAT VASCULARITY. Then HHH is free to sign any and all smaller, lest vascular and superior workers he wants and the chairman is none the wiser. He's literally running a fake PC full of jacked lunkheads just for Vince's benefit.
  11. True. But you'd think they'd learn their lesson between injuries and the fact that the most successful NXT call up to date (Owens) is not exactly the poster boy for guys who would get kicked out of Planet Fiteness for gymtimidation.
  12. So instead of workers, the Performance Center is pumping out future panelists for How Much Ya Bench?
  13. Right, but the question was specifically about the singlet with shorts, not the nut hugger. I remember Mantell, the Russians and Bundy all wearing the latter, not the former.
  14. @A_K My point was piling up THREE cliffhangers in the final minutes of an episode is amateur hour, tryhard, hamfisted garbage, done only because a cliffhanger is usually more interesting than the payoff -- especially on a show that is more often than not very dishonest with its cliffhangers. Look at the episode before last. Cisco is spying on Darlene for the Dark Army! Darlene smacked him with a bat! What's going to happen next? Holy shit, the ground of the show literally just shifted! And then the payoff was.....Cisco was just telling them he has her and she's safe? And she overreacted? Amazing. They just pulled a bait and switch that added up to nothing just for the sake of having a cliffhanger. Again, I like this show, but it's definitely all style over substance. Really good looking shots, neat little narrative contrivances, ballsy plot twists, etc all camouflage the fact that there's some dishonest, sub-par storytelling going on.
  15. I've never seen Roadies but the commercials make me think Cameron Crowe is to music what Jim Ross is to College Footbaw. A guy who is doing one thing but clearly wishes he had done the other thing, which was always his true love. Ray Donovan is awesome. This season has been a little darker than the previous ones, but it's definitely worth your time. Just don't go into it thinking it's a procedural where Ray and his wacky friends "fix" a new case every week, because most criticism of the show seems to come from people who expected that kind of bullshit.
  16. God dammit, the last thing I wanted in my head today was a Triple H/Stephanie/R-Truth cuckolding scenario. You jerks.
  17. LOL I called it. The Boys were ringers.
  18. Stereotypical New Yawk goof wants stereotypical New Yawk goof pushed, film at 11
  19. A lot of people are complaining about the burning hammer. Don't sleep on the fact that Ibushi survived Kendrick's "bully choke," which has been put over as his finisher in the tournament, TWICE. He also kicked out of the sliced bread #2. This match was good but it needed someone to reign it in a bit during the planning stages.
  20. Holy shit this show is so frustrating. An amazing hour and then they shit the bed in the last few minutes like a gymnast falling on her face on the dismount. Cisco is at the smart house. We hear panting/gasping, he sees who it is. Who is it? WE DON'T KNOW! Darlene is at Cisco's house and just found out Phase 2 was Elliott's idea (what a tweeeest!). There's a knock at the door. Who is it? WE DON'T KNOW! Elliott is going home and it turns out Scary Swedish Lady is waiting for him. Why? WE DON'T KNOW! This is some Vince Russo writing here. "Bro! What's better than a cliffhanger bro? THREE CLIFFHANGERS BRO." And sweet mother of fuck am I done with this show (unless the missus wants to keep watching ) if it turns out Elliott was Tyrell all along. That would make no sense without the already-past-its-welcome "unreliable narrator" get out of jail free card.
  21. Bring Malichi Jackson ("The Youngest Buck") out of retirement!
