Matt D

He should just wear this instead, with a slight edit:

The biggest thing that Drew has going for him is what Vince said. It has to be nagging on the back of Vince's mind that he endorsed someone and they never ended up champion.

I choose to believe Natural's view of history over yours, even if there is videographic evidence supporting you.

Amazingly, someone made a video of Matt Striker during the Booker T stuff and it doesn't even have it, I don't think.

"From the Producers of Springtime for Hitler."

It was a huge , huge mistake to have Booker in that slot. The crowd went nuts for him. The problem was this. Nexus had controlled things for the last ten guys or so and the point of that was to build up the drama for John Cena to come out and take things to the next stage of the Rumble. Having Booker come out right before Cena messed up the whole match, really.

We watch everything at home with the subtitles on now, so that might be an issue were I to see it in the theater.

That might have been true when Byrne was working on her and when Carol was Binary, but ... alright, let me put it this way. In 2014: She-Hulk is what DC Entertainment wishes Wonder Woman was. Carol Danvers is what Marvel's ideal Wonder Woman could be.

I know they went their own way with Deathlok, and maybe they can do that too with Jessica Drew, but if that was the case, she'd just be the character in name. Carol Danvers makes even less sense since Carol is marketable in and of herself in a way that Marvel really needs, I think. She's Marvel's Wonder Woman but endlessly more relatable.

Thank you. That said, Wally is a very hard Flash to use in a show like this because he's defined in a lot of ways by the fact he's a legacy character. That's the starting point. You can't easily have Wally without a groundwork to build upon. It was different in Justice League where you really didn't have to go into the private life/backstory as much and also where it's part of a broader shared universe. Here, there's value in having there never before have been a Flash so they can make it feel more like the "real world" and appeal to middle america or what not.

It makes no sense personality wise though. Granted, they're willing to make haunted, cold-as-ice, cool russian wit Natasha into a sort of bouncy cheerleader, so who knows. Her personality doesn't mesh with any existing Marvel character, but especially not Jessica Drew, not any take I've seen on her, including Bendis' who sorts of writes everyone not that far from Whedon characters. I really think she's her own entity even if she has ties to broader MU elements in her origin.

Edge vs Matt Hardy. Punk vs Jeff Hardy.

He was going for his deep powerslam.

Dibiase had apparently been very frustrated by the fact he went from the figure behind the NWO to the guy who just held Hogan's belt for him after the Bischoff reveal.

Is anyone as excited for the four episodes we're going to get of Galavant before it gets cancelled as I am? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPNVhGbw_Sg Because I am pretty damn excited.

My self-interest is so huge that I relate to pretty much anything.

When your tagteam partner is an IRS specialist, it's really easy to write off these losses.

I had some stuff written here but lost it. Three things: 1. They're underrated as the Bushwhackers, hugely so. People speak of them with such derision, about how the Brainbusters were wasted, etc, but the problem was never them. It was us. They served a role, they told a different story, they appealed to the crowd in a different way, and they could barely have done what they were supposed to better than they did. There are some matches that I find fascinating and really well worked, especially their series vs the Rogs and the Beverly Brothers. I wish we had a few more of their Nasty Boys matches too. 2. They were so good at this role because they had played so many. Luke was Gorgeous Teddy Williams and Pretty Boy Floyd. They were monsters and fan favorite destroyers and goofballs, and they were OLD when they hit WWF and probably extended their careers by years by working the style they did. 3. They scared the hell out of me as a kid, more than any other wrestler, an this is as the bushwhackers. This is in 1991. I was 10. The idea of them eating sardines and trying to lick my head was terrifying to me. My dad used to scare me on the way to the Boston Garden for house shows by telling me that he asked WWF specifically to have them lick me that night. Even though we were in the cheap seats, it still scared me. ---- and that's enough about that, because the Sheepherders were something else. They drew all over and they helped pop Portland as part of the Army and we are so damned lucky to have that stuff now. There are, I think, three Piper/Martel vs Sheepherders matches online. It's the feud that got Portland tv kicked off of prime time. They're all worth watching. There are also a ton of six man tags with Buddy. Butch was positioned over Luke, weirdly enough, and he's the one who had the buddy feud. I'll post the singles matches of note. Hair match vs Piper: Butch vs Buddy: Butch vs Buddy Lumberjack:

Apparently the messed up powerslam opened him up pretty bad:

Catch it while you can, apparently nasty botch and all.

They should just say "Screw it" and put it on Regal. You know, for old time's sake.

Unstable molecules.

I nominate Coach.

Is transformers really such a draw after three terrible movies?
