If Undertaker goes in the WWE Hall next year, will they put Kane in too? It seems logical but I would think Taker should induct him and they have never done something where somebody going in inducts someone the same night.

Though X-Pac and Daniel Bryan would be good choices. Maybe Big Show, but I read once they did not get along well away from the ring. 

Big Show, Mark Henry and Kane did a Dinner For 3 on the WWE Network and they were rather chummy. I doubt that they have issues. Daniel Bryan seems like a good bet. As far as the Undertaker goes, Mick Foley would be my guess.

I'm going to imagine Big E won some kind of miniature golf tournament and that jacket was his prize. You can't convince me otherwise.

I'm obviously referring to the groom. 

Thinking about Kane, they could probably put him put him in the hall in 2019 and have Undertaker do it. With Paul Bearer gone, I think Kane should be the one to induct Taker.

I can't get enough New Jack promos in SMW, especially whenever he addresses Bon Armstrong.


New Jack: I'll fight any of Bob Armstrong's sons. Sleepy, Sneezy, Dopey..Brad, Brian or Steve, I don't care.

I wish I could find the awesome "The Junkyard Dog days are over! The  Tap Dancin' 2 Cold Scorpio days are over!" promo

SMW New Jack is so amazing on the mic during this period. I'm still waiting for him to get cast i na movie as denzel's best friend!

Taker is probably the only wrestler ever who has an outside chance of Vince inducting him himself.

New Jack is a fucking nut. As a black man, there's no way in hell I would've cut those types of promos in that territory for what I'm sure weren't great paydays.

And poor Bob Caudle having to stand there while New Jack is ranting. It's hilarious to see him cringing when New Jack is spouting off about how the only thing he has in common with white people is that they both hate Martin Luther King b/c if you slap MLK he'll turn the other cheek and New Jack won't.

I just watched Taz vs Sabu from Barely Legal... probably the first time I've seen that since 1997... and I was blown away by the matwork in the match. Back then I remember we all shat on the match, but watching it in today's era of 100mph spotspotspot predictability it's kinda turned into a thing of beauty.

It's on the Network, last I checked, but they have the Gangstas debut when Jack says "OJ Simpson - good job. That's two less we gotta worry about."

Gotta assume the quality monitor was dozing off when signing off on that being uploaded.

Its remarkable how this stuff works. If I read a description of it I would say "that is stupid." But New Jack does these promos and it feels natural. 

I read originally it was suppose to be Koko B Ware and Tony Atlas and they declined, But it would not have worked because you would know it is bullshit because its Koko, who is really good (certainly better in ring than either Gangsta), but everyone knows him. 

With New Jack and Mustafa it has a very uncomfortable sense of danger. Because New Jack is unknown aside from a brief USWA run two years earlier and Mustafa did a few WCW jobs. Jack plays a perfect balance of a guy with a good point and a real villain. I actually think New Jack could have turned face eventually. Some fans were cheering when they beat up Cornette. 

I really can't do it justice because describing it and it sounds terrible. But I would recommend everyone check out the TV.
