  1. how good what a Regal-Nigel pairing be on commentary?! Throw in Beth or Phillips and there you go. Regal knows the holds and when to expression the emotions.
  2. I think a lot of what the Rockers end up doing depends on how Crocketts/Dusty would have dealt with their backstage partying/attitude. Although after seeing the behind the scenes at the Bash video damn those guys partied as hard as the Stamford crew.
  3. it was pretty surreal watching War Games and thinking every one of those guys worked ROH (many of them holding titles there)
  4. I think he was trying to get a rise out of the twitter followers. He obviously didn't think how it would hurt Mauro. Graves doesn't know what it's like to have a mental illness, nor do I. He probably didn't think twice sending the tweet. He probably thought it would get him attention (which it obviously did) but I am 100% sure he didn't think it would have this kind of impact on Mauro. If he was in a bad place prior to the tweet Corey wouldn't have known. Moral of the story is we all would be a lot better off without twitter.
  5. i think where we disagree is that I don't see it as he 'slammed him'. He acknowledged the other 2 commentators as they didn't really have a chance to say much over Mauro. He didn't swear, name call, bring up any illness. He said what I am sure millions were thinking. Maybe he shouldn't have on social media I agree with you there, but to say he slammed him isn't really an accurate statement.
  6. I respect that but lets take it from a different angle. In all honesty how many of us would be able to just not show up to work because a co-worker critiqued our performance? Most of us don't have that luxury. Now when your job puts you in front of millions of people you are bound to get criticism from others is it right to heckle the guy or rib him? No it isn't but Mauro isn't the first person with mental health problems to be critiqued. Hell look what the Yankee's fans did and chanted at Zach Grienke. That is 1000x worse than the tweet Graves sent.
  7. Yeah but I'm sure he's been heckled at live shows too right? It can't just be social media. Pretty soon he will have to live in a bubble like the bubble boy. Not to knock anyone with mental health issues but the tweet Graves sent wasn't that severe we have all seen much worse and I am sure will continue to see worse. It's the downfall of social media. What really sucks and what I do feel bad for is when young kids are bullied online. They have to go to school the next day and deal with it.They can't just say "oh I'm not showing up today my feelings were hurt" Mauro could have came back to work and would not be bullied while there.
  8. Graves is in Pittsburgh with his kids having Thanksgiving at his parent's today which is why he hasn't tweeted any responses today. Crazy Mauro would miss a ppv and a live show though over that tweet. I feel there has to be more to it.
  9. So Dana might be able to answer the age old question about Bautista
  10. I ended up doing FIFA and NBA2k played some FIFA last night and had a good time. I usually do ok against the computer but the minute I play online some 7 yr old kid schools my ass and takes me down a few notches.
  11. he essentially was a fan watching the show. He said "you also have a hof and former ROH champ calling the show but you wouldn't know it" was he wrong?? Honestly was he wrong?? Nigel and Beth barely had a chance to get a word in. I'm not a huge fan of Beth on commentary but I do love Nigel and neither really got to say much. Graves being a commentator and a fan in general was reacting to what he saw. Co-worker or not he made an opinion. He didn't @ Mauro in his tweet or attempt to harm him in any way.
  12. this is true. I am pretty close with Matt's brother Sam (Used to be close with Matt too 15 yrs or so ago but anyhow) Matt came in to do a show here in Pittsburgh and he had his kids with him. The kids were extremely well behaved and they made signs for their dad and for Uncle Sam (adonis and no the signs were not red, white, and blue) Matt has always been hot headed though and will sometimes tweet or say things in the spur of the moment. Sam is the same way, think back to what he said at the Rev Pro show that got him in hot water. Do I think he intended to hurt Mauro? No I don't, but I do think he was trying to make a joke that didn't go over nearly as he hoped it would.
  13. I have Fire Pro and WWE2K19 didn't know if the patches were working but apparently not. Glad I posted here and thank you guys for the heads up. Probably going to go with Ark, Fifa20, and NBA2K20
  14. this is part of the playstation black friday sale. Wondering if i should bite the bullet for when/if the patch ever does work. It's roughly $45 for the deluxe version I believe.
  15. yes it's the full run. It's a huge book over 1000 pages. I bought it on Ebay. I see it on Amazon but Amazon says it's releasing next month. Not sure if they are doing a re-release or if they have the date wrong. I've had the book for about 2 months now.
  16. ACH showing everyone just how to get released by WWE and still get a payday. Has anyone else in recent memory left and been allowed to work booking so soon after?
  17. is Tim in the modern stories or just written off? The Batman and Robin omnibus is by Tomasi and Gleeson
  18. kind of hard to justify supporting ROH when they are run by people like Koff. I won't lie to you guys I am an honor club subscriber in hopes that the early shows will somehow be released. I'm strongly thinking of cancelling not that ROH would care.
  19. and then ROH goes and fires Kelly Klein by email. Smooth ROH real smooth
  20. did King start with the Rebirth series? i picked up the Batman and Robin omnibus but haven't read it yet. I was a big Tim Drake fan and not really sold on Damian. Did they ever explain if Drake died or not?
  21. she's been cool with many fans she knows how to market herself and make the $$$ but she treats workers and promoters pretty bad. There are better women workers that should be in her spot. Makes you wonder why they aren't and she is where she is.
  22. I will find the female wrestler who made a twitter post about it and DM you the post on here. I heard her make remarks at both AIW and IWC shows personally and can also give you the accounts of others who have and can vouch for it that are workers and not fans. If you look at my post history I've never had an issue with anyone else but if I see something I don't like I will speak up about it and when I know people who have personally worked with her and had nothing good to say about her it speaks volumes.
  23. won't be surprised when more of this comes out in AEW. People are already wondering why she is in the spot she is in. But yeah thats the post. The only thing that has changed about her in 1 yr is that she stopped copying the Adam Cole spot's.
