LoneWolf&Subs Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) I’d believe it. Even before he might’ve taken steroids, Kobashi was naturally a brick shithouse. Edited February 18, 2020 by LoneWolf&Subs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoarr Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 So, I came across this the other morning and the name of Harlem Heat caught my attention. Never heard the term Ebony Nightmares until then: Cross checking with the ad that ran in WCW Magazine, I noticed another detail that I never noticed... the fact that Booker and Stevie are in jumpsuits and chains: So... who has ever seen the full promo pics of the Chain Gang version of Harlem Heat? The magazines I have from that era don’t show this version of them, even the ones that still call them Kane and Kole. The only first promo pics I’ve seen are the ones from this 1993 shoot: Anybody out there have the Chain Gang pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This does not get taught in school. UK history, when taught, is very England-centric. I didn't really know much about the U.S. actually doing something useful in foreign policy by brokering the Good Friday Agreement until two years ago, maybe, because of following all the Brexit news, and that happened in my lifetime when I should have been cognizant of it. But if anyone wants to learn more, I have some good book suggestions. I was taught about The Troubles in 9th grade History... back in 1993/1994 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also the fact that the WWE wouldn't let him call it the Bloody Sunday anymore. Always assumed 1916 was a compromise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know somebody brought up Glacier debuting on WCW Pro of all places. But as bad as that sounds, honestly why wouldn’t that be considered a good thing? I mean this is a smaller show that you want to bring eyeballs to. Putting a debut of a hyped act in a squash would be a good start to someone you like, but aren’t ready to do anything yet with. That’s also the best use of a squash. These big companies have forgotten that the secondary shows could be of great use if you make an episode or two special every once in awhile.

It also gave them a chance to work out the entrance logistics and do a test run to see how it looks on screen, before going live in front of a large audience.

MORELOCK Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I guess the big question is: Did WCW actually promote the Glacier debut on Pro before it happened, or did they just throw him out there cold (thanks for reading, folks) after months of vignettes? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear I remember them announcing it on one of there programs(It might’ve been Saturday Night), and it led me to watching it. But I’m not saying that they did it right. I’m saying if you got a smaller show, why not put the act that you know needs a good clean debut, on the show that might need some attention, and you hype it up. That should’ve been done more often.

Infinit Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Glacier's debut was actually at an Disney/MGM taping. I wonder how far advance the taping was from the air date. In those days World Wide and Pro always pushing next week's show, so I'm guessing there was at least a week build up to the debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It still should. WWE has Main Event still that they've been doing nothing with since its debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck, seeing that plus Okada thanking them is completely blowing my mind.

Well the thing about Main Event is that it isn’t on US TV anymore(or its in markets I don’t know about) and Vince might not see the importance to do that just for international markets. AEW Dark, or whatever it’s called on TV might have that chance. Edited February 19, 2020 by LoneWolf&Subs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate the orange turd as much as anybody, but "groped" isn't entirely accurate. She's saying he aggressively pulled her close to pose for a picture. Still a dickish thing to do, but not on the level of the other things he's done to women. Edited February 19, 2020 by mattdangerously 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 (edited) How do you throw a person while pulling on their arm to spin them around so you can hit them with your other arm? Did the kid accidentally get Irish Whipped? Irish Whips aren't supposed to work in real life. Edited February 19, 2020 by Curt McGirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only the bouncing off the ropes and continuing to run uncontrollably part that's absurd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
