Ziggy Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 11 hours ago, AxB said: From a hurting AEW perspective, they probably (with hindsight) wish they had hung on to Dustin. Why? They weren't going to use him, he mentioned several times he pitched ideas to them. He has had a stronger ring run in WWE in the past decade than his earlier runs as Goldust. The guys is my far a better worker than any of the guys from prime era. These legends they bring to Saudi and WM matches can't touch Dustin in the ring. It's like Finlay before he when back to be solely an agent. He was over 50 but he was still better than % 95 of the industry and just as believable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 The same reason they're not releasing anybody. They don't want to even allow the risk of somebody leaving and strengthening the competition. Good idea to let Spears go though, mission accomplished.

odessasteps Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 I’d think Dustin is also a unique case, given how long he was a good soldier for Vince and the personal connection with Cody. I could see them letting veterans go (someone like Truth) and opposed to young guys who have never done anything for the company.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elizium Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Fucking wrestling bubble...Stan Hansen doesn't even know how to do the scissors in rock/paper/scissors. Does Stan Hansen speak Japanese? He's been there for 40 odd years and works in the All Japan office, so it seems like he would have picked up a lot of it. Unless I missed it, he doesn't appear to say anything in Japanese, but he does seem to understand what everyone is saying to him. As for the seconds, who's the dude in the army shirt rocking the brylcreem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't Stan Hansen have a Japanese wife? I seem to recall this being mentioned during that Network Show with JBL. She was not big and fat, and they didn't have nine kids.

I was thinking about wrestlers who have held a WWE Title for a year and over since Randy Savage's first time as WWE Champion in March 1988-April 1989. I've come up with: Diesel Nov 94 - Nov 95. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Hansen understood the concept and Chosu tricked him into doing the wrong pose for scissors. Oh Riki, always trying to get any little advantage...

As for the seconds, who's the dude in the army shirt rocking the brylcreem? I believe that that's Masakatsu Funaki in the army shirt. You can live in Japan and not be able to speak all that much if you have people around you who can speak enough English to help you get by, Unless he has to say take out a loan and fill out the application form by himself he could probably survive. I would recommend people coming to live in Japan to learn the language though. Besides, it doesn't really fit the character if he came in speaking Japanese. Anyway, that clip was the final. Before that Choshu took on Shiro Koshinaka: And then Akira Maeda (!): And finally Hansen: Japanese entertainers of a certain age are big fans of 80s wrestling.

Honestly, I didn't expect to get a little choked up seeing that old building in disrepair and getting torn down for good. PWG rekindled my love of wrestling. Forget 2019...WWE was beyond stale 9 years ago when I heard Alvarez review BOLA 2010. I thought it sounded fun, so I checked it out. I've watched every single show since then. I became familiar with so many guys who are big stars today because of their time in that building. If I hadn't gotten into PWG, I'm not even sure if I'd be watching any wrestling today. That crappy old building was host to so many fun memories to me. So RIP, Reseda American Legion hall. Thanks for everything. Also, kudos to Owens for keeping kayfabe and referring to his opponent in that ladder match as "Generico."
