hammerva Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 yeah no surprise but the idea that the death was "natural" is a bit of a stretch given his history in the 80's and early 90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 In regards to that "After Raw" set. Per someone who already reviewed it Match lengths: 0:29:33 – Triple H & Ric Flair vs. Shawn Michaels & Randy Orton (2/14/2005) [Match length: 17:26] 0:18:34 – John Cena vs. Edge (07/17/06) [Match length: 13:22] 0:09:54 – Triple H vs. Randy Orton (8/27/07) [Match length: 4:31] 0:11:43 – John Cena vs. CM Punk (07/11/11) [Match length: 8:30] 0:12:39 – Orton, Show & Sheamus vs. Bryan, Kane & Rhodes (04/02/12) [Match length: 8:06] And one of the Austin segments apparently lasts 40 fucking minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hagan Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Apropos of nothing, but gotta say I'm finding the Uproxx.com wrestling reviews to be some of the more entertaining stuff around. Wasting time at work reading reviews of NXT season 1, which, needless to say, is fascinating on a lot of levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 yeah no surprise but the idea that the death was "natural" is a bit of a stretch given his history in the 80's and early 90's. That is what natural means and this is anecdotal, but my uncle was in his late 40s, in fairly good shape, no prior health issues, and he died of a massive heart attack while driving home after purchasing a wedding present for his daughter.

GoOnAndWalkItOut Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I thought the real Ultimate Warrior died years ago. I heard the armband gimmicks he wore cut off circulation and caused a stroke or something like that. (heh, who remembers having those convos with kids at school way back when?)

I don't think we can be trusted with a thread like that. I'd give it three to five days before Rippa or Jae would lock it and throw out the BAN hammer. . .too bad it would be interesting.

Casey Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Everyone might want to check their DVRs, I just did and RAW is split up into 3 seperate one hour shows, and listed as a repeat featuring highlights from WrestleMania 29 with The Rock. Just a heads up, don't know if it's exclusively a Charter thing or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
