Matt D Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 6 minutes ago, Technico Support said: The term for these types of teams used to be "blowjobs." I wish I could remember the particulars, but I remember a story where two groups of promoters were discussing one of their territories and one said, "your territory is decent, but where are the blowjobs?" The other promoter was embarrassed, thinking he meant that oral favors were supposed to have been arranged for the visit. It’s Jerry Jarrett saying it to Bill Watts. That makes it funnier. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 listening to the Between the Sheets which has a Wahoo McDaniel heel turn on Ronnie Garvin and holy shit, those matches must have sounded incredible (which means they only ran a few times in late 1984 in Georgia) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 BTW, booking a finish where someone applies the figure four and then taps out without his opponent reversing the move because he’s accidentally hurting himself 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This particular promotion (Fight Music Show) is just a tier or two above that, but if you somehow trap your own leg while attempting a kneebar, then yeah you're pretty bottom barrel.

Cobra Commander Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 so it's the MMA equivalent to the wrestling federation that didn't exactly exist where all the TV jobguys are beating up on guys so shitty that they can't get on TV? At least there's MMA for people who can't get a black belt in a martial art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think the guy who tried to shoot on (you can probably also say legit murder) Mike Rotunda that one time in early WCW and then followed him to the back.

J.A.S. used it in their intro video for a week or two in AEW, before changing up the wording slightly. IIRC, they even replaced the "For over 50 years..." with "For nearly two weeks..." which was brilliant 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rented this when I was probably 8 or 9 years old, and the final scene of the movie is Sheik cutting the promo about having the match on top of Cobo Hall or something, right? Well they didn't show whatever match Sheik was promoting and I was super pissed about not getting the payoff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
