RIPPA

Won the IC title

I have often thought about starting this thread just for random tidbits that happen to TNA that end up getting buried in the Discussion thread because reasons. Like the Matt Hardy thing probably would have worked. But even better is that apparently TNA is running a poll where the fans are deciding if they use the 4 or 6 sided ring for the NY tapings

This shouldn't make me laugh as much as it does. It's stupid and silly but still Dave tweeted a hour ago (so like 5 AM est, 2 AM his time) Luckily CRZ was awake

So for the next 3 weeks - we only have one new movie (for our purposes) coming out - Transformers 4 Nothing this week and nothing July 4 week. Of course - if you had all listened to me and had voted for Think Like A Man 2 we could be talking about inexplicable box office draw Kevin Hart

http://youtu.be/z2_JO-BZvNw (Note - there is no sound on that match due to copyright claims) I was going to try and find at least one match when he was with the Havana Pitbulls but youtube is all "OH! You want to watch the song with Pitbull featuring Havana Brown!"

The Moondogs in general were a topic of discussion - I avoided the whole lot just for the issue of people always confusing which version they were supposed to be voting for and the hassle of finding the right footage. And I believe Ed's exact quote was "Fuck Lanny Poffo"

When we were brainstorming teams - Jericho was with Eddie Guerrero Then a combination of realizing that there run was very brief and that Eddie/Chavo was more legit lead to us changing it. But it was so late in the game when we did it - Benoit/Malenko was already locked in We did try to find another partner for Jericho but outside of running a gimmick of putting in Lance Storm and seeing if anyone noticed - we had nothing.

Jamal/Kea is the much more legitimate team

Aww... with wrestling you never know. Yes - they would be eliminated else for some reason it hopes before I post the voting for the Battle Royales. Because if it is before I can always sub a team in

You are voting for teams Use whatever criteria you want. If you want to use "WELL ITS A BATTLE ROYAL! HE WOULD NEVER BE ELIMINATED!" fine. Just vote for up to 4 teams in a ring... and don't dick over the Brazos

THE TEAMS I tried to make sure people knew what wrestlers we were talking about so don't be all WARRIOR WASN'T WARRIOR WHEN HE WAS WITH STING!!! And the "Battle Royals" were drawn randomly with a few tweaks to try and balance things. Oh and one obvious gimmick. RING #1 Jamal/Taiyo Kea Sliver King/El Texano Mitsaharu Misawa/Kenta Kobashi Los Guerreros (Eddie/Chavo Jr) Bret & Owen Hart Wahoo McDaniel/Billy Jack Haynes Nick Bockwinkle/Ray Stevens Rick Rude/Manny Fernandez Hollywood Blondes (Ken Timbs/Eric Embry) Hollywood Blondes (Brian Pillman/Steve Austin) Hollywood Blondes (Buddy Roberts/Jerry Brown) Abismo Negro (Winners)/Super Calo RING #2 Men on a Mission Jack & Jerry Briscos East-West Connection (Jesse Ventura/Adrian Adonis) Clossal Connection (Andre the Giant/Haku) Ted DiBiase/Steve Williams Bison Smith/Akitoshi Saito Texas Outlaws (Dusty Rhodes/Dick Murdoch) Cam-Am Express (Doug Furnas/Dan Kroffat) Super Delfin/Gran Naniwa Footloose (Toshiaki Kawada/Ricky Fuyuki) Kansas Jayhawks (Bobby Jaggers/Dutch Mantell) Curt Hennig/Scott Hall RING #3 Lightning Express (Brad Armstrong/Tim Horner) Freebirds (Michael Hayes/Terry Gordy) Gino Hernandez/Tully Blanchard Chris Adams/Terry Taylor Ricky Steamboat/Jay Youngblood Rusher Kimura/Goro Tsurumi Bob & Crash Holly Scott & Bill Irwin Eliminators (Perry Saturn/John Kronos) BodyDonnas (Skip (Candido)/Zip (Pritchard)) Stan Hansen/Brusier Brody Atlantis/Angel Azteca RING #4 Eddie & Doug Gilbert Los Brazos (Brazo de Plata (Porky)/El Brazo) Chris Benoit/Dean Malenko Buddy Rose/Doug Sommers Gary Albright/Sabu Satanico/MS-1 Dino Bravo/Greg Valentine Road Warriors (Hawk & Animal) Twin Towers (Big Bossman/Akeem) British Bulldogs (Dynamite Kid/Davey Boy Smith) Well Dunn (Steve Doll/Timothy Well (Rex King)) Jumbo Tsuruta/Genichiro Tenryu RING #5 Pitbulls (ECW) Big John Studd/King Kong Bundy Bestia Salvaje/Scorpio Jr. Natural Disasters (Earthquake/Typhoon) Lance Cade/Trevor Murdoch Blade Runners (Rock (Warrior)/Sting) Shinya Hashimoto/Masahiro Chono Kerry & Kevin Von Erich Mike Awesome/Mr Pogo Texas Mustangs (Bobby Duncum Jr/John Hawk) Test/Albert MegaPowers (Hulk Hogan/Randy Savage) RING #6 Jeff Jarrett/Billy Joe Travis Big Van Vader/Bam Bam Bigelow Jerry Blackwell/Ken Patera Giant Baba/Dory Funk Jr Matt Borne/Rip Oliver Jurassic Powers (Hercules/Scott Norton) Master Blasters (Steel (Kevin Nash)/Iron (Al Green)) Jive Tones (Pez Whatley/Tiger Conway Jr) Shiek/Abdullah the Butcher) Diamond Dallas Page/Kanyon Hector Garza/Perro Aguayo Jr KroniK (Brian Adams/Bryan Clark)

I have been trying to think of another "event" to run for awhile when Ed came to me babbling about some sort of dream that involved tag teams where one member had already died. I have no fucking idea where he got it - I just know that we started thinking of tag teams and had a billion. And that running this will make people cry when their favorites lose. Or everyone ignores it. While we were trying to think of teams - completely independently - JT send me a message that was all YOU SHOULD TOTALLY DO A HALF-DEAD TAG TEAM TOURNAMENT!!! So clearly this was a sign that this was happening. And JT needs to get the fuck out of our heads. This will be a two stage... thing. Actual voting will go up tomorrow. RULES AND EXPLANATION Wrestler could only be used once Teams are made up of one dead member and one living member Teams are from OUR LIFETIME (Basically since the early 70s... we only kinda really stretched for a few teams) We tried to do teams that teamed regularly... basically if had tag title it was good enough for us. Just work with us people. STAGE ONE We are starting with 72 teams. We actually thought of more but some of them are pretty thin. But I needed a number that would work properly with the wacky format. There will be 6 "Battle Royals" of 12 teams. In each poll, you can vote for up to 4 teams (it is honor system - but since vote is public I will see if you cheat and totally wipe out your vote). In each group - TOP 5 VOTE GETTERS ADVANCE. (30 teams advance that way) Of the remaining teams - the two teams (regardless of group) with the highest vote total advance (thus bringing us to 32) STAGE TWO Straight 32 man tournament. Seeding will be somehow based on the results of the "battle royals" but I haven't figured out that part yet. Teams in the next post

No

So many gimmicks... Your handy guide from Luchawiki God - I remember him first showing up on the 500 as Pinoy Boy in May of 2002. So yeah... we are all fucking old
