  1. Yeah, skip to 2:30 or so. FWIW, that Kwang/Razor match is pretty good actually save for the problems at the end. It was a pretty good way to start a feud, actually. This was right around the same time that Albano came out with the Headshrinkers to challenge the Quebecers and IRS destroyed the headdress and beat up Tanaka and Strongbow to start that feud and Michaels help Diesel win the IC belt from Razor and Earthquake came out to challenge Yoko. If the Perfect/Luger feud hadn't fallen through it would have been a really strong month or two for WWF angles. Apparently it bore out as that was the first year they did a Wrestlemania Revenge tour and according to Meltzer it did great numbers touring in a usually very slow time of year. (They had Bret vs Owen on top and Luger vs Crush after Perfect dropped out).
  2. They're seperated. Doesn't mean they don't communicate with each other. It also doesn't mean his evil robot son with his brain patterns wouldn't totally program her personality/voice into his robot wife.
  3. I will endeavor to watch that mascara vs mascara match later depending on how my day goes since I try to watch at least one lucha match whenever we have a luchador as the WOTD, but this is a really fun five minute match with the best parts being Lita cracking up at Richards' antics and the transition as TAKA pays for trying to copy Lita and Rios' tornado DDTs from earlier in the match. EDIT: Hours later and the board is back. I did see the match. I thought Guerrero was the better guy in there but some of the aerial stuff that Aguila did was really fantastic. I loved how he hit his dives. The end of the first fall seemed a little rough. I did like the multiple comeback attempts by Guerrero before it finally set in and though the third fall got a bit over-kill-y with some of the stuff they were doing, the selling was ultimately good and it was unquestionably fun and exciting. The way Guerrero just mauls him at the end with two completely unnecessary throws before the finish was kind of great.
  4. That Breeze/Neville dropkick counter was probably the best I've ever seen that spot done by anyone. Breeze's dropkick was amazing. The angle he got on it was nuts. I can't make animated gifs on this thing but here's some hastily put together idea of it. I liked the back half of the match a lot, especially the finishing stretch and the battle for the Red Arrow. Breeze definitely has potential and I think Neville's shown a good deal of improvement even in the last year.
  5. Monsters University was better than Despicable Me 2, at least. Kristin Wiig's character was terrible in that thing. Croods is actually pretty good. The baby bought it by accident so we've had to watch it four or five times with the other kid to justify the 15 dollar on demand purchase. Basically, all I've seen this year are kids movies and Thor.
  6. Hey, kids. it's the world's second best Doink.
  7. Now think about how far from that reality we currently are and cry pained tears.
  8. I hate Children of Earth. It's edgy for the sake of it and goes to senseless extremes just because they know they could get away with it, unrestrained from the necessities of ongoing plotting. Laziest writing in the world and not clever in the least.
  9. I may or may not have a dream where HHH beat Bryan at Mania in a match that was weird like the Orton one from 25. I do not have wrestling dreams so I figure it was more about all the back and forth bitching on the board than anything else. Thanks guys. Now then, my new fantasy booking scenario involves a Regal heel turn, a career vs Mania title shot match, and the Wrestlemania X coin flip. Ready?
  10. At least a little bit sent, probably as a preemptive apology for March.
  11. I think that was an answer to the Impact live (yes) universal (no) questions.
  12. If anyone hasn't listen to the Austin podcast with Bryan, they really should, because the humbleness really does shine through there and it just makes you like the guy more. It feels somehow fitting now. I do think the Usos' stock definitely went up. If we had WCW Top Ten Rankings here, they'd definitely be the number one contenders for the title for winning that cage match. I'm just saying.
  13. Not sure what this has to do with Daniel Bryan, except for maybe that it's a better way to describe the last few years than "glass ceiling."
  14. Don't get me wrong, I want Lesnar to beat the shit out of Bryan just to have Bryan coming back again and again with desperate dives and running dropkicks. Also some grappling excellence. Bryan is a much better athlete than Punk. Punk kicks and jiu-jitsu~ are pretty terrible and I thought the armbar reversal on their match was a bit eye rolling, I don't know anyone who shitted on Punk vs Brock tho. A certain Obese Castellian Foodserver. Careful lad, people on here actually think I am Fat, Spanish, and a Waiter. And that your name is Walter.
  15. I don't have easy footage but the Hughes babyface turn in 1992 is very surreal. It was around his glasses breaking into his eyes and JYD helping him out if I remember right.
  16. I think this is part of why people haven't been focused on Bray's role in this. The board is split on whether or not Bray had convinced him at all or if it was a plan.
  17. Eddy is a good example because they tried to turn him heel on Tajiri and the fans just wouldn't have it. I'm trying to think of someone else that really overcame booking like this. That honestly might be the best example.
  18. They could dress up El Torito as Rocket Raccoon. That'd be great. I guess Khali can be Groot.
  19. I thought Flair was going to turn on Cena last week and hook up w HHH and Orton. Evolution Reunion It's a terrible, terrible idea and I am sorry, but part of me kind of does want this to happen, with HHH, Michaels, the Outlaws, Orton, Flair, and a shock turning Batista being Evolution X or something. I just really like factions. You should watch ROH! I'm pretty sure the last ROH show I went to was Night of the Grudges which was all about The Prophecy vs the Group, Also, is it too late to hope that Batista comes in as Drax the Destroyer and thinks that Brodus Clay is Thanos?
