  1. I understand the wrestling logic of "I'll take a bit of damage with this move to do a lot of damage to my opponent" but Foley's elbow always looked more brutal on himself than his opponent. I've been watching a lot of '95 ECW on the Network and Foley is just killing himself every show. It's hard to watch sometimes knowing how rough of shape Mick is in these days.
  2. Brian Kendrick. I always dug his work as a face but he was really picking up steam as a pseudo early 90's HBK. Big Zeke was perfect as a poor man's Diesel. I wonder where he'd be if they actually brought Daniel Bryan in to tag with him.
  3. I never understood Foley's Cactus Elbow or whatever it was called. The damage from him dropping an elbow from the apron didn't look nearly as hurty as the impact of that fall on his hips. If he lost that move back in the early 90's he'd definitely be a lot more mobile today.
  4. If Undertaker gets brought up Austin will talk about how he sells on the run and you gotta watch out or you'll get blown up.
  5. I think a simple thing WWE or any promotion with tv could do is put up a graphic when a champion wrestles stating how long they've held the belt, maybe number of successful defenses, win/loss record against their opponent, etc. People are so into fantasy sports and statistics these days that quantifying wrestling seems like a natural fit.
  6. Punk describing the various injuries he sustained over the past 2-3 years really makes me question why anybody would become a wrestler. He makes it sound like the most miserable and painful job that a person could have.
  7. Brie hates her sister more than she hates AJ. However, the best way to get revenge is to beat Nikki for the title so she screwed AJ to insure Nikki has the belt. Austin did the same thing in the Farooq vs Owen match at Bad Blood 97. He hated Owen but he helped him win the IC title so he could have the ultimate revenge.
  8. Maybe Jarrett can hire these guys for commentary.
  9. Did we ever decide if Punk had a good missile dropkick?
  10. Ezra Miller looks like the long-lost member of MGMT. Definitely an unconventional choice.
  11. Bit of revenge for the Lightning against the Canadiens tonight. Stamkos with the Hat Trick and Victor Hedman with a 4 point night. If the Bolts can stay healthy, they should be a factor in the East.
  12. Such a great gimmick. Who betta than Kanyon?!
  13. Ran my first 5K last night. I've been doing a 5K every week on the treadmill for about 2 months now but doing it out in the open air is a lot different. Especially with the humidity in Tampa. Finished in 33:50. Hoping to get down to the 30-31 minute range when I do my next one.
  14. And just like Wally West in the DCnU, they've disappeared from WWE tv continuity.
  15. Nash is one of those guys who my mind tells me I should not like because he's lazy and manipulative and he helped sink WCW with shit booking but dammit, I can't help but think the guy is hilarious.
  16. I always thought the story was Michael Hayes showed it to him which is strange considering Mikey Whipwreck was using it in ECW while Austin was there.
  17. Hogan always has to have the spotlight, doesn't he?
  18. Davey's just being a good heel and showing ass for his opponent.
  19. Sid's the coolest. So much of wrestling is in the aesthetic look of the performers and Sid was McMahon's wet dream. He looked like a roided version of Michael Rooker. I thought he was an underrated promo during his "Sycho" Sid days. That southern accent just made him sound more unhinged. That Lee Scott squash is the best squash I've ever seen. Vader squashes included.
  20. Nikki ragdolling her sister by the hair while telling Lawler to fuck off makes her the biggest babyface in the WWE now that Ambrose is gone.
