Was thinking early Jungle or if Griff Garrison threw a rad dropkick.
Griff to me is young Barry Windham
Sam Houston? Lee Moriarty.

If MJF does no-show, then a ready made replacement in Disco Inferno will already be in Vegas working his day job.
Can we just get a 5 minute segment of Wardlow powerbombing Disco over and over again?
That would be Disco's biggest pay day in 20 years.

Had a whole thing typed up trying to state my case, but I'm gonna go another way with it lol. If you can find a Prime Time Wrestling match from that era where heel Greg Valentine does more than chin locks & boot stomps I'll give it a go with fresh eyes. But he's got a whole lot to overcome to change my opinion. Including quite a few times of witnessing the dude be a straight up prick to kids he was working on indy shows.
Oh dude. Valentine vs Ronnie Garvin. It's the beeeeessssstttt.

I guess if I had to give my final wager, I’d say that if MJF is still in Vegas, then it’s very likely they’ll work out a deal for him to appear on the show tonight. However, I think it’s also very likely this will be the last you see of him in AEW for quite some time, possibly ever. You just can’t build anything else around him until this is settled and everybody is happy again, if stunts like this are on the table now.
Jeff Jarrett approves this message.

He's in three of the best 1v1 straight wrestling matches in AEW's short history between Punk on Dynamite, Darby and Jungle on PPV. He is a great blend of old and new schools in the ring and while he doesn't always hit with his trolling, he's clearly a generational talent on the mic.
The standards have clearly been lowered. He's ECW level of shock on the mic. That's where he is more Shane Douglas-like.
The problem with MJF is that even with his momentum and overness- I don't see McMahon taking to him. People used to say he's the new Piper- but Piper had some size and a certain level of charm that even as a heel you digged.
Vince would be far more interested in Wardlow than MJF as a long term investment. But if all that MJF wants is that 7 figure salary for a few years until he's a budget cut- good on him. Get in and get out with your neck intact.

Because it would look even worse when his "burn" smears all over his face during a match?
Honestly... the first thought I had when I saw this post was wondering if Hayabusa had burn makeup for his cornhole following the firecracker match.

So who is Foley's best opponent? I would lean Vader, those matches were harrowing
Funk, Vader, Sting, Nasty Boys if we can count tags.

Is there any reason right now to take the belt off Page? That's the one thing I don't get... he can still have a dance with Mox, a returning Miro, Jericho, Eddie, some NJPW guys... hell even MJF... why drop it to Punk at this moment in time? That seems so premature when there's a lot left in the tank... you could even have Page hold onto it until Kenny returns potentially at the end of the year.

Jericho was a good opponent for HHH as long as he was the face and trips was a heel. Jeff Hardy and HHH usually had good chemistry too. But Rock is probably the best answer because he’s the only one who ever got good stuff out of face HHH, at least that I can think of.
was HHh anyone’s best opponent cause I can’t think of anyone
I always felt HHH (and 95% of the main event WWE guys) were too big for Jericho to be working his 90s Jr Heavy style offense.
-
Foley followed by HOG or Wildman Marc Mero have my votes for HHH's best opponents.

KOR has that greasy slimy dude who can systematically break your limbs vibe and it's great for a heel.
Plus his belt guitar is Hogan-esque... and for his era he is a good comedic bumper for a heel.

In news that I'm 100% positive some people will absolutely LOVE:
Kyle O'Reilly has supposedly signed a 5 year extension
I f'n love KOR... he is also one of those guys that just looks best with a belt. If he was a young gun I'd have him in the Yuta role with Dragon & Mox

I'm way into title histories as well.. Ric Flair's title history was always fascinating to me I never understood and still don't what exactly they count as the "16 world titles". He is close to 22 i think I used to know all of them by heart.. sure some were mostly unrecognized but I'd like to see what the actual 16 are that he means.
Are you counting all the times he 'lost" the belt in Puerto Rico? One would think that would be the only way he could get out of the arena alive.

I know he's popular here but how is Mark Henry, one of the worst wrestlers of all time, going to trot this kind of opinion out? It took him 15 years to figure out how to wrestle and he had to retire a few years after that because he can't stay in shape. Can't understand why AEW ever signed him. He's a terrible commentator and seems to have a toxic old school attitude.
There's nothing about Mark Henry that's toxic or really even old school. What stands out the most with Mark Henry is that the only thing he knows is how to do things the WWE way. He's a perfectly programmed sports entertainer.

You aren't going to convince me that neither of them had no idea what that meant.
Well this is the same woman that didn't think thoroughly through naming her podcast "Oral Sessions".

Today is tag titles unification day. I'm not sure which team will win, and which brand the belts will end up at.
I'm not even following but with this being WWE it will be The Usos to break up RKBro so they can be free to go up against Roman

Starks is a real student of the game. I’m confident he puts a lot of thought on exactly where to fall on the sports entertainment vs wrestler spectrum.
Look, if Starks ends up somehow as a member of the Jericho Appreciation Society there will be no way that I'll be able to tell him apart from Daniel Garcia.

I could be wrong, but I think “gonzo bomb” is just what the move was called when it was included in a Fire Pro game.
I read at some point that what the commentator says during the move translates to something like “what the fuck was that!?”
Fire Pro is probably where I picked it up from!

垂直落下式パワーボム （三冠パワーボム）or Vertical drop power bomb (Triple Crown Power Bomb)
I remember this being dubbed the "Ganso Bomb".
It's been maybe 20 years since I've seen this match... I seem to recall this not being the finish.

He's never turning heel. He told us.
That's exactly what a heel would say.

Man I would totally pay attention and watch WWE if Piper Niven & Nikki ASH are rocking out like the APA.

I do think it's rather laughable that Naomi and Sasha would be voicing concerns over unsafe workers when they would have had the least amount of experience of that advertised 6.

I dont see what the issue is with Naomi pinning Sasha. That's a total Demolition move.
