THEmanWITHnoNAME Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 He liked it even more 3 posts ago Will teach me to drink and post.
Roman Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 I've always loved the Powerbomb/Top Rope Clothesline double-team. Not specifically that one, but still.
cool arrow Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 Is that Bagwell totally whiffing the clothesline?
Ramsey Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 To this day, I want to kick THAT guys little ass in. Or better yet, see someone like Brock or Stan Hansen do it.
Rev Ray Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 I'm guessing he's blowing a Buff Blockbuster. I recall them doing a double team with the blockbuster, but I thought it was a bear hug. 1

goc Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 Makabe’s punches are not better than either of the Ding-Dong’s punches. EITHER OF THEM MAKABE throws three punches that are SOMEHOW SHITTIERshittierSHITTIER than your average Abyss punch combined with your shittiest Ken Anderson punch. I AM NOT FUCKING EXAGERATING. GO LOOK!"

GO LOOK!" Why does he aim so fucking high? He throws his punches like he's trying to punch them in the top of the head, which would look stupid even if he didn't miss by 18 inches.

"Because of the way the match was going I'm not sure these spots weren't on purpose to tell you that this match is falling apart because he's hurt and make it more real. It did feel like that was the case. When you can take a match to the level where you go beyond suspending...you know this was like in a new dimension of believability in a sense that you know it's fake but what is real and what is not real as far as what is going on in this match and then they're blowing spots and are they really the blowing spots because the blown spots seem to figure in." - Dave Meltzer 1
Technico Support Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 Oh Dave. Japan: where blown spots are given a pass because maybe they're planned (???) and where every match automatically gets 1.5 stars added to it because of geography. 1

I understand everything you are saying. I agree totally. 2
Technico Support Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 The only explanations are 1) Dave is somewhere on The Spectrum (come on, who among us hasn't thought that at least once?) or 2) there are some really sweet drugs out there in Campbell, Cali. i just re-read that paragraph two more times and, Jesus Christ, it is fucking dumb. "They're blowing spots because they're taking the match to another level" is some shit Vince Russo would have been burned at the stake for even attempting. I enjoy Dave for the most part but his Puroblindness is maddening.
goc Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 You can listen to him say it himself. It starts at 1:35: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-nh8mhewe4

It starts at 1:35: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-nh8mhewe4 I respect the hell out of his output and commitment but his opinion on matches as devolved so badly. He's always been a movez guy (his love for Kobashi is probably the best example of this), but this is absurd.

I'm just gonna assume he meant to say, "It looks more real because boxers miss punches sometimes" but between his brain and his mouth that sentence took a detour.
Technico Support Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 The best thing about that Zandig video is that it led to this, and I'm fucking LOLLIN' like a retard 3
