  1. Sorry for the giant size, but Kamala's coming at you
  2. I'll start watching when my net time flips over. I will definitely buy the comp either way though.
  3. I thought Flair burst his bursar (?) sack on the superplex.
  4. They were surprisingly nice with Heller considering how much he raped all of their pocketbooks. Giamatti was excellent in the role and got some good laughs as the straight man.

    G1 Climax 25

    Wait... what? Tenryu is facing Okada on his retirement tour? Exqueeze me? Baking powder?
  6. Well, that too. He comes off less likable the further into the books he puts out. Jericho, that is
  7. Yes indeed. I was just about to ask why these stopped for so long. For what it's worth, I'm down with any wrestler who was named after Tom Araya from Slayer in real life. She has a killer submission, too. Very hurty.
  8. GODDAMMIT QUIT REMINDING ME OF REASONS I STILL NEED TO WATCH HBO
  9. I'm pissed that I don't get HBO anymore now, just because of Show Me A Hero (and their documentaries, natch).
  10. Straight Outta Compton was damn good. The resemblance of Cube's kid to his dad is un-fucking-canny, and he sure can act. The MVP of the film is the guy who played Eazy, though. Of course they left out all that stuff about, you know, Dre beating up women, but that was to be expected. Packed theater of teenagers so lots of laughs. That opening scene though! Shit was intense. For those who haven't seen it I have one word: "batter-ram". EDIT: After re-reading some of your comments about it, I agree with the second half being mostly Dre/Cube; they don't even play a single song from Eazy's solo records. Them giving so much attention to "No Vaseline" was hilarious though. I'm sure most of the kids in the crowd hadn't even heard it before so their awe was palpable. Something I want to know, did Cube really bust up the Priority dude's office with a bat? Speaking of which, here is Cube fact-checking the film: http://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/aug/13/straight-outta-compton-film-ice-cube
  11. The mask thing is so awesome. It's something you would expect out of Mexico.
  12. There's a thread for him below which I think only I posted on, but hey there's one match on there.
  13. Death Touch Thursday is Vengeance and Vengeance Is A Golden Blade (is that not thee best fucking title of all times or what?!).
  14. I dunno, the draw didn't work for me. I wanted the proverbial five more minutes, or for them to at least brawl afterwards. Not that it isn't an amazing match, of course. Both of you guys should get the '80s lucha set and delve into some really interesting stuff. And supremebve, I can recommend some BattlARTS that certainly belonged on a Meltzer list but didn't even make a blip on his radar. In '92 he was probably willing to look into RINGS but there's a lot of BattlARTS that smokes that or even primo UWF/UWFi.
  15. If the weegies are cool with playing the Misfits on their radios, I'm cool with them. 74 days until I sing in Teenage Martians again...
  16. Shit, I like the video even more than the song.
  17. What told me things were going sideways was when Bryan was STILL doing the missed flying headbutt. Are you kidding me? The move that crippled Dynamite, and this guy is STILL doing it? I forgot about the Dragon Suplex but that was even worse.
  18. You can look however you want anywhere you want when Masa fuckin' Saito got your back
  19. New one is best classified as "fun". Suzuki/Iizuka vs. Sakuraba/Yano is perfectly fine because it's cut to like five minutes and it's just both sides doing their schtick. The shooters try and take each other's legs with them, Iizuka and Yano clown it up. No way could I watch it in full though. The Bullet Club/Ibushi and Naito tag is helped for the same reasons and there is surprisingly NO Club interference. KUSHIDA/Taguchi was incredibly smooth and athletic but KUSHIDA forgets to sell the leg and runs and jumps and kicks like every other goddamned junior ever and it will irritate you to no end. I did like the final hold. And hey, look, there's Taka!
  20. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9hPfEhewyU If anyone wants to watch a real classic entitled The Mechanic, you can do it here for free.
  21. I 100% agree, but a show about a crazy ass presidential election would be pretty fucking fun. It would probably be better as a comedy. What are the Parks and Recreation people doing? I'd love if they did a show with a crazy set of candidates running for office and everything that went along with it. Ha, you just reminded me of the Comedy Central show parodying W. Bush that got axed after 9/11. Well I'll be damned. It actually was cancelled the month prior due to costs. And it was done by Parker and Stone which I had no idea about. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/That%27s_My_Bush!
  22. Its more that I don't know who the fuck the guy is. Does he really have the entree of a Tyson or a Trump, or even a Hugh Jackman? It seems like they're kind of scraping the bottom of the barrel, like getting some USA Network star to participate. Maybe it's just me. Green Arrow could be massively popular but I wouldn't know because I don't watch network TV.
  23. Okay show. I got a kick out of Owens moving out of the way of Rollins and then the tope as well. Cesaro doing an effortless Alpamare Waterslide and Neville literally bouncing a foot in the air off the Red Arrow were nice too. New Day are too damn funny. No idea why an actor is wrestling in a tag match on Summerslam but he had a decent spear and forearms. No Piper tribute is unfortunate; maybe it'll be on Youtube or the Network.
  24. I'm surprised that was brought up a second time. Remember, Foley tried to pitch it to Vince for the Dumpster match with Funk and the Outlaws, even doing it in a separate, empty arena, but that also got canned (pardon the pun). You know Cena would go all-in on an exploding barbed wire match. The Onita comparisons would be ridiculous.
