    Tony says he's never seen Game of Thrones, so that certainly wouldn't be his idea.

    Also, that just makes the whole Winter is Coming thing even sillier. The snow was a cool visual though. 

    Eh...but the "winter is coming" kind of transcends the show/book. I've never watched Game of Thrones, but I get the reference.

    IIRC, the horrifying Jim Ross puppy story is even worse than recounted here. His dad didn't hate him drown them, he made him kill them with a hammer. Because they weren't purebred so he couldn't sell them. Apparently giving free puppies away wasn't something that crossed his psychotic mind.

    -------

    Most hated is so hard. I'm gonna try to leave personal lives out of this and just go by on screen/in the arena stuff. Currently, it's probably Rollins. His discount K-Mart Kenny Omega ringwork mixed with being literally one of the worst promos in the history of major pro wrestling is just ugh.

    Guy who just flat out bored me the most, all-time, was Mike Rotunda. Everything he did was technically sound, but he makes Lance Storm feel like young Rey.

    Most "I hate him because he's overrated" is, obviously, HBK.

    Also, The Equalizer/Dave Sullivan/Evad... Just... Holy fuck that guy was bad.

    In that vein, I had a period like that with Benoit. I had too many friends in the late 90s / early 00s who were into him and it just made me want to look away.

    Wouldn't WWE's biggest concern be finding a facility with no other tenants so that the Thunderdome setups can stay up for as long as necessary? Maybe the MGM Arena in Vegas so they also have adjacent hotel for everyone to stay at?

    I’m just envisioning this turning into the real life version of Netflix’s GLOW.

    Realistically, Marty gets suspended during the Speaking Out movement and most likely the Dark Order angle gets dropped at that time.

    I read this thread backwards and was wondering if the original question was what if Marty Janetty was the Exalted One.

    Anna Jay definitely isn't 8, since 8 is a male and has had a match on Dynamite before (with 9, against QT & Dustin).

    Cabana would have to be 11, and she'd be 12. But that doesn't make sense, because if they're going in order of when they joined, Angels should be a higher number than Preston Vance. I mean, yeah, I know WHY he's referred to as 10, but saying they're giving them these numbers due to the order in which they joined kind of goes out the window when you see that 5 joined two months after 10.

    I think Darby just got released.

    I wonder at what point is Marty going to try and backpedal out of this one? I mean, if it's even partially true, it will probably not go away, try as he might. But the last time that I'm aware of when he said some highly questionable stuff online, he tried to say afterwards that he was hacked. That seems to be the standard explanation in similar situations, but I don't see many people buying that this time around. I have a feeling he will be forced offline by family or authorities in the near future.

    I guess we're going to get a Dark Side Of The Ring episode devoted to him in season five...

    One thing I find interesting is we've seen just here then he accussed of ripping off Riddle/Barnett's Bloodsport, Chikara's The Crucible, and WCW's The Block.

     

    That's exactly what I thought of. I gave up on the Jazz game around the third period and switched over to see Dolph working the worst MMA style stuntman brawl ever. 

    I hope it leads to some sort of WCW Backstage Assault parody.

    Maybe I'm a little overhyped right now, but I'll say if they don't have Kingston main event a big show within a year, they're missing out.  The goal should be to have him in the mix with the top guys.  I'm not saying put him there immediately, but you could even say it should be the short-term goal.

    This. I think he's the guy that I'm most excited about seeing regularly on the show.

    Was it ever confirmed that the Eric character from the Little Mermaid was in fact based on the likeness of Eric Bischoff? Like, didn't he do the stills/modelled for the character depictions etc.

    Never heard that before. But now that you mentioned it, I can’t not see it.

    Re the Lince Dorado thing - I found this via archive.org, It was a recap written on ChikaraFans

    The main event was supposed to be next of Hero vs. Claudio but they ended the show instead

    I was at that show and that is a exactly what happened. Remembering table little that I remembered from first aid in Boy Scouts, I was horrified that they moved him in a table. I think everyone there thought Lince was dead. 
     

    On a lighter note, everyone was asked to stay in the building because they were waiting for an ambulance. I wound up chatting it up with Dr Keith and he was a cool dude.

    Demolition was a far better tag team than The Road Warriors. I never really understood the comparison other than they both had a Mad Max look... Demolition could actually work.

    Part of it was because I really never saw the Road Warriors, but I never thought that Demolition was anything like them as a kid. In fact, I thought they were wrestlers trying to be KISS.
