The thing is, dating outside THE BIZ~! isn't really an option either.
Why isn't there a "none of the above" on this poll? I guess they can't all wind up at the exact same level... If JTG could be this successful without having to do anything, I'm sure he'll be all right.

During the era when he was regularly working Masters, Christian, and Hardy, McIntyre was one of the best workers on Earth.
Consider the high praise those three get from that era, though.
Drew McIntyre was one of the best workers on earth? eh? Besides that overrated Chris Masters match what else did he do?
Well, to be fair, he didn't specify the number. He could've been, say, one of the best five hundred workers on earth.

I wonder if they meant to release Slater and mixed him up with Hawkins...
And I think they missed the boat by turning Aksana brunette, although Lana kind of fills her role either way now.

I was just watching the WWE network Ultimate Legend thing and a thought struck me... where was Warrior running from? Like, you knew Goldberg was in his room getting psyched and then they'd go and knock for him, but Warrior just appeared from nowhere running to the ring.
I like to think he sprinted from town to town, only making it just in time for his match
He was running from Parts Unknown, obviously.

I'm just puzzled by Fat Spanish Waiter not being Spanish. I haven't been this confused since I realized his name wasn't Walter.

I don't have a problem with that spot, either. It's contrived, but it fits in the paradigm of professional wrestling better than the ones we usually rag on. If the tombstonee had, say, rolled through (despite there being no forward momentum) into a tombstone of his own, that would bother me; but in this situation, since the guys being hurt act like they're being hurt, I'm cool with it. It's no more contrived than a good Jackie Chan spot, really.

Samoa Joe may have held all of TNA's titles but it is things like losing to Angle in their first match, losing to Angle via chair shot at Hard Justice 2007 killing his momentum, losing to old man Sting at Bound for Glory 2008 without even getting a rematch, promising to take out the MEM at Slammiversary 2009 but then joining them, getting kidnapped by ninjas, getting choked out by Jeff Jarrett and getting in trouble for the "phantom of the impact zone" line. Repeated stupid junk that barely is a toe in the water in the steaming pile of what could have been that is TNA.
Okay, that sounds amazing and not at all like a missed opportunity. Can someone explain the context of this? Samoa Joe has been kidnapped by ninjas! Are you a bad enough dude to rescue Samoa Joe?
The angle could have been saved had they sent the Bad Dudes to rescue him.
Or the Dynamic Dudes.

Where was Volkoff from? Somewhere in the USSR, right?
I thought he was from Lithuania.
He should stage a comeback with Aksana to feud with Rusev.

Best and worst in one post:
This makes no sense. Why the fuck is Orton just standing there?
Thank you. Shane's punches are bad, but Randy is putting ZERO effort into selling them.

The Diamond Cutter was possibly the best finisher of its time, but I don't feel that power bomb one. It's too contrived.

Until everyone else started posting Raven gifs, I thought that was AJ Styles.

Didn't WCW use a lot of public domain and cheap stock production music?
A lot of it was production music and Jimmy Hart tracks that had been liberally "influenced" by others. The Benoit theme is similar to a Machines of Loving Grace song, Booker T's was essentially a funkified version of a Kraftwerk song, Saturn ripped off "The Beautiful People", DDP's was "Smells Like Teen Spirit", Raven was "Come As You Are", Chris Jericho was "Even Flow", and so on.
Of course, WWE's not exempt from this, either. I know that Too Cool's theme has turned up lots of places.

Can Mark Jindrak slap in the rear naked choke and make crazy faces? If yes, we might be in a similar situation regarding Evolution. I think Orton would have made it one or another, he has the look and the name.
Jindrak would have been in place of Batista, not Orton.
I don't think he'd have had the success Batista had, but I'm not familiar with his post-WWE work.

There could never have been two Ultimate Warriors. One of them would have had to be the Penultimate.

Around 2:45 contains the lyric "switch off your shield."
Don't forget that Dave went to Hollywood to make them there movies.
What does this all mean?
Relax.

There is a Saturday Night match between Roadblock and Rick Fuller out there and I intend to find it.

Danshoku Dieno is a shrewd businessman.
Is there a Canadian Dieno-stroyer out there?

All this talk of RVD reminds me that Rey's been off screen for months and nobody's even noticed.
-
Not the same without the sound effects.

Is there a reason yet for the item in spoilers? I'm puzzled.
Soldier Ant returned as a heel.

Is there any reason so far as to why Soldier Ant is a heel? I'm puzzled.

That Deeb/Beaa match was all sorts of fun and exactly what I look for in my sports bar wrestling.

Maria Menounos?

Is Dusty the most beloved bad booker of all time?

Did everyone but me know that Chuck Palumbo has a show on the Discovery Channel?
