ka-to Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Gene kayfabed being drunk. I somehow walked into Gene doing a WCW promo on the streets of Toronto. He ended the promo by saying that he needed some adult beverages and walked into a bar. I was so disillusioned when he walked back out right after the camera stopped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Execproducer Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 C'mon he probably just had more promos to shoot. I'm sure there were plenty of adult beverages later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Cincinnati Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 The Raw Reunion was pitched by USA. More proof that network notes should always go straight into the trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Townsend Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 The 24/7 title was a network idea. Supposedly Vince and company thought it was terrible, but also thought they had to pick one of the network's ideas and that was the best of the lot.

Infinit Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 So me and my group were slow on getting Summerslam tickets, so it became next to impossible to get decent seats that are together. So what did we do? We rented a 200 level skybox/suite at the Scotiabank Arena. A little pricey, but we are all together. And away from the unwashed masses lol. Should be a fun night! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 (edited) Current medical issue in my abdomen (not the one I'm referencing, incidentally) has me thinking of a finisher: "Lethal Impaction" (a Meltzer atomic drop). Maybe the Lucha Bros can use it. Or the Revival, if they leave for AEW. It may be diverticulitis. No more making fun of Brock's.

Dave (I mean...c'mon...) * * * 2. Bruce 3. Mark (these 2 can probably be flipped based on personal preference. Mark was probably better looking when they wanted to make him an attractive character, but Bruce has the one thing the other Kids don't...dat thickness. I'd put Tammy and Kathy with a K over any of Mark's characters, looks wise) * * 4. Scott (Scott's own admission is that he didn't look good in drag. I think it might have been his Maron interview where he admits that it annoyed him to no end that the other Kids were better looking in dresses than him) * * * * * * * 5.

clintthecrippler Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I always loved that the Kids in the Hall's explanation for how they approached their drag characters was that they didnt want them to be cartoonish over the top "that man's wearing a dress" (credit: Bobby Hill) but that they wanted to be portrayed as actual women. I think the exact phrase was that "any of these women can be your aunt, or your sister". And I know no one sells injuries anymore but Lashley was literally just murdered and thrown into an abyss by Braun Strowman LAST NIGHT. I had hopes that things were turning around when Strowman was out for a few weeks after the Titantron incident - which is an eternity for selling injuries these days - but holy shit they really couldn't do Raw for ONE week without Lashley?

Dolfan in NYC Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 So, Vince's current level of panic is "The WWE returns to MSG!" 9/8 and 9/9 for Raw and SDL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
