mco543 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 They did a Legends of Wrestling set about 15 years ago, it had regular and bloody versions of guys like Eddie Gilbert, Kamala, Bruno, Ivan Koloff, etc. Not that great but pretty cool because the set contained a lot of guys who had never gotten the action figure treatment before or since. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEN! Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 All Figures makes now are those retro Mego-style figures. They're just going to put a Planet Of The Apes figure in camo shorts and call it Mark Briscoe. I keep forgetting I get the TV now. Had it on in the background while I was doing something else so had no idea that was Taven. Knew it couldn't have been Matt Hardy cause he wasn't fat enough. And I got the black bars on the sides but I'm pretty sure I also got bars on the top and bottom too. The picture was proportionate but it looked really small surrounded by all that black.

Web Conn Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Mark Briscoe vs Caprice Coleman was a solid opener this week. Does Nigel have one more match in him? I'm asking seriously cuz I wouldnt mind seeing a Tommaso-Nigel match. I'm liking Ciampa's new attitude and I like Jay Briscoe - Fighting Champion. I like to see how this plays out. They planted the seeds for a Ciampa-Jay feud while furthering The Kingdom/Briscoes feud. I also like The Kingdoms shirts. taven is still just a guy to me his look is so plain. Brutal Burgers vs Page/Whitmer was a fun tag match. I really liked that reverse Piledriver Page did to Cheeseburger. That Halloween backstage vignette between Chicken Romantic Touch and Delirious was random and goofy I didn't like it cuz Chicken had just two segments before been beaten down by The Kingdom. As expected the Main between AJ and Sydal was really good. There was some great fighting out of moves from both men. It was a good back and forth until AJ finally got the Styles Clash on Sydal. It was a good show this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 From what I understand, Nigel could go back to working full-time anytime he wants to, health wise. He just doesn't want to anymore unless it's for WWE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Since they've had him lose every match since he's been back, they really oughtta have Sydal win SOTF to get him back on track. I'd especially like if it came down to Sydal vs. Delirious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 I am not sure how much of a work this "debut dates" are in the player profiles but had no idea that Caprice Coleman has been in the business since 1998. Fuck we are old I don't think Taven is that bad in the ring but that Doomsday device move was so awful. Mark Briscoe could have landed on his feet it was so light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck we are old I'm thinking '98 might have been his first match. Coleman was around before that. He started out in OMEGA as a referee. He was the Hardy's first trainee, irrc.

jstout Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I'm afraid to post in the wrestling folder anymore after making a fine point and being shouted down by the masses in the miscellaneous thread, but I've got to say: I saw ReDragon against the Time Splitters in that recent NJPW iPPV, and holy shit, is Bobby Fish the man. He's just this fantastic heel, with the mannerisms and the hair and the whatever the hell that facial hair is. He's just an absolute natural heel. I hated him from the get-go and thought "holy shit, this guy's good." Does everyone else see this, or is he kind of an ROH joke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.M.B. Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 IDK much about ROH these days but agree on being impressed with him. He looked great in BOLA this year as well. Have seen a few of his matches in NOAH a long time go but don't really know much about him, except that it took him a long time to catch on in the states. I guess he's the lesser of the two in the tag team but I enjoy him even more than O'Reilly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 There've been a lot of great teams where one guy's the worker and the other guy's the personality. You can tell O'Reilly's the better guy in the ring, but Fish just has his act down. Now I've gotta play catch-up to any matches they had against the Briscoes.

Big Fresh Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Fish was never the ROH joke that Richards and O'Reilly were. And I think most people (including me) are starting to come around on O'Reilly too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool arrow Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 O'Reilly is good but he's hurt by the Davey connection. (Plus the fact that he looks like a 12-year-old with Down Syndrome.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technico Support Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Word. O'Reilly turned the corner for me when he started doing more wrestling and less fake MMA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewar Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 O'Reilly has improved massively during his run tagging with Fish. Hell, he's even shown some personality during their promos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
