  1. Cool. And it has a Linux version. Added to my Steam wishlist, thanks.
  2. Are you talking about Last Epoch? That's what came up when I googled "Lost Epoch".
  3. For what it's worth, the announcers said the match had been thrown out.
  4. I was intrigued by Joe-Wardlow going into the show. I didn't think the time was right for a title change, but I also was sure they didn't have Wardlow win the Scramble just so Joe could unceremoniously beat him a few weeks later then move on. Except I guess they did. Huh. Weird.
  5. I think that mellows with age, too, though. In my case at least, I'll always harbour nostalgic love for the '80s Transformer and G.I. Joe cartoons, but I'm also comfortable with the fact that they were objectively pretty bad. (The '80s Transformers comics weren't as good as I thought they were at the time either.)
  6. Is Dropkick Murphy an indie wrestler? Because "Dropkick Murphy" would be a great name for an indie wrestler.
  7. Eh. He stole that spot from Green Arrow.
  8. They should become bears again. Everyone's scared of bears.
  9. Well, it wasn't a perfectly formed joke. (So to speak.) The germ of it is that I personally hold Curt Hennig in higher esteem than Shawn Michaels. But of course, your comment was (I think) about how successful they were in the business, not how skilled they were. (And I'm sure lots of people would argue Michaels was more skilled than Hennig.) The more serious part of the comment was that I would think wrestlers who overestimated themselves would picture themselves as not only being the top guy, but succeeding as the top guy. Michaels made it to that level but was a flop. To put it another: I interpreted your comment as meaning there are a lot of dudes who think they're cut out for the main event but aren't. Which I would argue could be more concisely expressed by "There are a lot of Shawn Michaelses in the locker room".
  10. So they're underachievers, then?
  11. Me too buddy. I almost posted the sad icon on Matt's post.
  12. I do, but I thought their status as a successor was indicated by their names. Like "Titan Jr" or "El Hijo del Titan". Is that less of a hard-and-fast rule than I thought? Thanks, but I'll note that the Titan linked to here was apparently 5'9". Was there an even earlier Titan who was titanic?
  13. Does "Titan" mean something different in Spanish than it does in English? Because that's a heck of a ring name for somebody who looked to be shorter than Chris Jericho.
  14. Spitting Image was a satirical British puppet show from the '80s. Mostly political satire. It's where the puppets in the aforementioned music video came from. Might be better known in Canada than in the US; I don't know.
  15. I'm not a youngun, but I didn't recognize the reference. If he had mentioned Spitting Image I'd have gotten it.
