     If you can come through on the mic- even if Kai and Martin would destroy them in the ring, they're doing the gimmick better. 

    To paraphrase what I wrote earlier about Michael Hayes, sometimes the name is enough. The Glamour Girls looked like Patty and Thelma. 

    Then they beat your ass like Patty and Thelma would. 

    They weren't required to do promos. There is little to no evidence saying that they couldn't. I'd err on the side of them being able to. Ain't lookin' to catch a lit Virginia Slim to the eye.

  2. Also, maybe the IIconics can outpromo the Glamour Girls, but the GG's would beat the damn breaks off of them. They smoke the IIconics in the ring, flat out. And though they weren't really required to do promos, I'm guessing Leilani Kai and Judy Martin knew how to hype up a match at the Omni or whatever. 

     

  3. I recently watched a couple Glamour Girls matches on Prime Time and was blown away by them, Judy Martin especially. She was a hellacious bumper and was busting out a power bomb in the mid-80s. On top of that, they're both total ring generals. Even the non-Bomb Angels matches rock, if you ask me.

    Seems like you guys got a top 10 or so player for a bunch of good but unspectacular pieces.

    I get that, but he's on a massive contract when we're already paying Andre Drummond out the nose. Blake has yet to play a full season, on top of that. We've got Reggie Jackson covering that angle already. 

    We need a damn point guard. We'll see how it all plays out, but as it stands, I don't get it.

    But it looks like I'm by some distance the highest person on the opening tag. It's not as stunning in the sober light of day as it was when I watched it drunk after a work party last night (in my brain this morning the Kyle/Razar shootstyle opening was like 3 times longer, haha), but I still really like it. Giving the Authors some more room to breathe and work in their individual talents is proving a very good thing. The random Akam injury storyline is a smart way to do this match, I think, and ReDragon as efficient veterans who can take apart the younger giants when presented an opportunity totally works for me. Also Akam's lariat to Bobby Fish on the apron miiiiiight be my favorite lariat in WWE history? I say that without a lot of thought so I'm sure I'm wrong, but that was Hansen-esque clubberin.

    Nah, I'm right there with you. That match was excellent, and I think it's my favorite on the night. It's not the best, but it's my favorite. 

    Not only did he have THAT lariat, but Akam played monster as face in peril pretty damn brilliantly. He sold that leg exactly how he should have. I liked that the hot tag didn't get the pop that, like, a Ricky Morton's would. AoP was vulnerable, but they're too dangerous to be sympathetic. So, they didn't drag it out and do three cutoffs. It's an odd thing to go for, but it's fresh. 

    It hit me during this match: AoP really remind me of the Twins from Breaking Bad. 

    I went into this match kinds dreading it, too, as I really wasn't into Fish and O'Reilly. They totally brought the goods, though, especially O'Reilly. 

  6. No thread up for last night's TV, but godDAMN, Montez Ford damn near jumped through the roof on that Frog Splash.  He also manages to crack me up at least once almost every time he's on screen. Dude's a true goof. 

    That four way was really, really good. Right guy won, but I DID NOT see that ending coming. Awesome stuff. 

  7. Pretty sure Andre Drummond played the best game of his career tonight. 25 points, 22 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals and 6 of 8 from the line. One of those steals was a monster play at half court that he ran back for a dunk. 

    Tobias Harris put up 31, too. These two better make the All-Star team. 

    Awesome to see the Pistons turn around and beat the Celtics after getting ripped by the Cavs last week. 

    Fuckin' great game.

    I've been meaning to give Hammerheart a second chance for a couple years now. Twilight of the Gods really burned me back in the day and I never gave the Viking era much of an ear because of that. 

    Hammerheart is SO AWESOME. Twilight of the Gods is good, too, but man, Hammerheart is the shit. Skip straight to "Baptized in Fire and Ice" and you'll be loining and swording in no time.
