  1. No, he was a full-timer. He worked 24 hour shifts, which meant he was only working about 8 shifts a month. It worked out well with his indy bookings.
  2. The Berzerker and Max Moon both made at least one televised appearance as The Viking and The Komet Kid respectively before their name changes.
  3. That attempted Spanish Fly between Fenix and Ospreay. Mind blown.
  4. The look on Booker's face reminds me of Lafawnduh's relatives during her wedding ceremony to Kip Dynamite.
  5. In today's wrestling, an opponent will almost always escape or counter if he struggles or resists during the execution of a move. That's why I loved the finish of the Tozawa/Metalik match. Tozawa struggled and kicked, but Metalik was still able to execute his finisher.
  6. What does the remaining taping schedule look like? Are the finals going to be taped on the same night as the semis?
  7. Matt Taven is awful on commentary. He comes off like a low-rent version of Johnny Polo. He also sounds like Nick Swardson. I think the clean victory by Shane Taylor and Keith Lee was more about elevating them rather than War Machine leaving or breaking up. Both guys are good, but Keith Lee is ultra impressive. I could see him eventually getting signed by the WWE.
  8. Has that story ever been confirmed by a reputable source? Not saying that it didn't happen, but I don't recall hearing it from Meltzer and company.
  9. I don't understand the hate for the Dorado/Swann match. It was a fun little match that would have fit right in place with a late 90's episode of WCW Saturday Night. It's ludicrous to say they put together a Ricochet/Osprey tribute. Sequences like the one in this match have been around forever. As predictable as this tournament has been, Perkins over Gargano was a genuine surprise.
  10. Almas needs to turn heel. He should pull a repeat of King of the Ring 1993 and attack the winner of the Cruiserweight Classic. That trophy reveal was completely underwhelming.
  11. I didn't see much improvement from Hoho Lun this time around. His facials are so comically bad. His gear is indy-licious, and his Michinoku Driver was downright reckless. I too also hated the fact they worked over the leg immediately after the Gallagher/Tozawa match.
  12. Even better was Tom adding to it. "Did you pump your own gas?"
  13. What's the story with this? The thickly muscled dude can barely run the ropes, much less take a proper bump. Then out of nowhere comes what I assume to be a Russian delivering some pretty stiff knees. Is this from Continental? Were they running a WarGames match at the time? What's with the dual rings?
  14. I had a 10k and two 5k eggs set to hatch around the same time. The results: An Eevvee, Psyduck, and Nidoran respectively. Sometimes I hate this game.
  15. This website encompasses the major problem I have with the game. At home in Wisconsin, I receive a constant onslaught of Pidgeys, Ratatas, Weedles, and the occasional Eevvee or Venonat. I'm on vacation in Northern California this week. I went to San Fran the other day and played Pokemon Go while walking around the Fisherman's Wharf area. I caught about 15 new Pokemon there in a few hours that I had never seen before. I'm now staying in a town about 2 hours north of San Fran. Walked around town for an hour this morning. I didn't notice a difference in the types of Pokemon compared to back home, except maybe a few more Ekans. Lots and lots of Pidgeys and Ratatas. Check the website. Look at the variety of Pokemon at tourist attractions like Fisherman's Wharf or Times Square. I shouldn't have to go that far out of my way to catch something less common.
  16. I dunno, that was pretty awful. His stammering was Jumpin Jeff Farmer bad. Thank goodness he didn't bring up tables turning the wrong way.
  17. It's too bad the tournament is taped so far ahead because a bracket challenge for the CWC similar to the NCAA tournament would be pretty cool.
  18. I really liked the Network Special. I'm paraphrasing, but Triple H said he knew he had something special when he found Cruiserweights that Daniel Bryan hadn't ever heard of. I'm slightly surprised South Africa didn't get any love, with Zizou Middoux being an obvious choice. Agree with the quarterfinalists being fairly obvious with the exception of the lower right bracket. Swann, TJP, Gargano, and Ciampa all have a legit shot.
  19. That's what the stupid pierogi deserves after ripping off the Brewers sausage race. Italian Sausage > Onion Pierogi
  20. I'm not trying to come off like a social justice warrior, but are you actually rooting for JBL to engage in domestic violence? Wow.
  21. Lenny Lane should have received an invitation. He was never defeated for the Cruiserweight Title after all.
  22. The camera work in the main event was really annoying. I wish they would have cut a hole in the side of the cage for the camera to shoot through.
  23. Open up Google Translate. Translate Sami Zayn from English to Arabic. Then copy the Arabic translation and translate it back into English.
