It was admittedly pretty obscure. I think. I was young enough when it was on that I didn't really have my finger on the pulse of the zeitgeist. The only thing I actually remember about the show is one scene where some evil scientist or hunter or something has Wild Boy in a cage, and he monologues something like "Never in my wildest dream did I think there could be such a thing a Wild Boy". Which even as a kid struck me as an odd line, because, I mean - he's a Boy that's Wild. It's not that mindblowing a concept.

It was funnier before you corrected the picture.

Arwen and Aragorn from Lord of the Rings were first cousins (like eighty times removed).

What do you mean, "old"??? That show was just on... <Googles it>,,, ,,,shit.

Somewhat off-topic, but am I the only who can't hear a reference to Luchasaurus and Jungle Boy without thinking of Bigfoot and Wild Boy?

Well, all that emphasis on human life tells you it's something marketed at humans. Once you've narrowed it down like that it's pretty easy.

People who were already on the fence about seeing it again, maybe.

I don't generally defend WWE's booking, but that's a ridiculous overstatement.

What exactly would be the advantage to AEW in running their show on Monday anyway? Business is not a zero sum game. Their goal should be to make money, not cost WWE money.

I like the sentiment, but who writes "dipshit" as two words?

So the new core set is looking pretty good. I laughed out loud when I saw Colossus Hammer.

Wait, what? Kofi and Becky were clearly the two most over people on the roster at Wrestlemania (with Kofi probably in first place). You could make a case for Seth being third, but it was a distant third. Has Kofi cooled off that much since then?

Well, to be fair, some of their gimmicks have drifted. When they started they were a punk rocker, a cheerleader, and a hillbilly. WHICH MAKES PERFECT SENSE.

It's supposed to be. A pleasant-tasting drink might lull you to sleep; the foul, foul taste of coffee complements the caffeine by shocking you awake.

That certainly was falling with style.

A 4-ticket minimum order? Do you suppose he meant to say "maximum"?

The really annoying thing is that we still get coins for defeating someone. It would be a lot more convenient if the money was loaded directly onto our Presto card or something. No idea whom I'd talk to about that, though.

Whatever his flaws, Ziggler has always been a great bumper. I still think he'd be a lot more palatable if he did nothing but eat Brogue Kicks.

Scott Pilgrim vs the World is a pretty accurate picture of Toronto.

Isn't it? I was sure I saw an announcement somewhere saying that's how it would be viewable in Canada as well as the US.

If we gave Rippa $20 million, I'm not sure that's what he'd do with it.

There's also the fact that to break a pinfall you only need to lift one shoulder a centimetre off the mat, To dodge a diving attack you need to move your whole body. It's not completely absurd to suggest you might have the energy to do one but not the other.

<shrug> Could be. I'm still not sure what your point is.

Okay? I'm not sure what your point is. If you're disputing my claim, I'll point out that Google is pretty well-known for tailoring its results to the person searching. You're probably closer to Washington than I am.

That makes more sense. At first I thought it was some schlub having a nap and dreaming about the Four Horsemen.
