All I remember of the Dungeon of Doom post-nWo was keeping Barbarian and Meng as a tag team and young me foolishly thinking they would win the tag titles in that triple threat against the nWo and Harlem Heat. I thought they would win because Meng was better than everyone.

You forget Giant just squishing people with chokeslams, even prior to the nWo. Also Benoit Vs. Sullivan.

Side Russian Leg Sweep off the apron through a table, like Joey Janela tried to do to Kenny Omega on AEW Dark episode 2 (only Omega blocked it and Janela took a Nestea Plunge bump)?

Here's a micro-chasm of what is wrong with WWE. After many matches and ugly tweets and words Natalya, out of the blue, picks Lacey and they are partners with no problems whatsoever. That's not a story, PAL. 

I'm not going to bore anybody with fantasy booking. If you have watched wrestling for 5 anyone could. Most people on this board could take 5 minutes and write something serious, something wacky, attempted humor or several other things that explain this, create character motivations for both sides and leave open ends for it to go a multiple of ways. Literally that would take some of y'all 5 minutes. 

Would it change the business? Start a new boom period? Of course not. It might not even be good. You know what it's better than? Doing the laziest middle finger to the audience possible, which is nothing.

Shaniqua & The Basham’s

 

I've been watching a lot of 00/01 Ohio Valley lately, and man, the WWE wasted Doug Basham and Damaja. They weren't going to be main eventers, but they were both much better than... this.

This was that amazing period when WWE was pretty much trying to fuck with Corny/OVW and he did just about the most incredible job of coming up with a logical reason to explain why the guys who were mortal enemies were on Smackdown as a tag team. Also led to one of the greatest tv episodes in wrestling history as well.

I don't want Orton anywhere near AEW.  I truly despise him on every level, including personally (deserters don't sit well with me).

I consider him worse than Elgin (another guy I want nowhere near AEW).

That said, if NJPW-USA becomes a thing, AEW is going to have some problems finding folks to fill out the lack of depth in their midcard.

The women's division will never have consistently as long as Vince has any creative input at all.

#FTRKO showing up in AEW and getting a replay of the nWo storyline on TNT is my new jam

I don’t think those guys fit the nWo type at all. Though I’d mark out if Orton debuted while wearing a Canadian tuxedo like Hall did on Nitro.

With Meltzer talking about ad revenue for wrestling(or lack thereof) this morning, it got me thinking. Given the crossover with Juggalos, and wrestling fans, why has Faygo not signed a partnership deal with a major wrestling organization?

Does Faygo even do ads outside of billboards in the Detroit area? Also can you even get it outside of the Rust Belt?

Posting here For maximum exposure of this kid with Park

 

A pretty class move from L.A. Park though to give a positive thought and wish to AAA La Parka in his injury recovery.

For those that dont know, AAA La Parka suffered a serious injury on a dive gone wrong on Sunday night and suffered temporary paralysis. Last news I saw was that he needed some sort of emergency surgery yesterday.
