APRIL 2020 WRESTLING DISCUSSION


Recommended Posts

Popping back in to give my gratitude.

@West Newbury Bad Boy

@thee Reverend Axl Future

@BurningBeard

@Robert s

All stepped up to make this board a better place. The Brians thank you - The Real Brians, not the phoneys like @Brian Fowler, who like the Macho Man Randy Savage, wasn't there when Brian Crush Adams needed a friend. You let me and more importantly @Rippa know that I've still got a little bit of that March Madness magic left.

I got his autograph at a Wizard Con because his booth looked just like that and I felt bad that he was next to Chloe from Smallville (at the height of that show in like 2003, so there were hundreds of people in line.) He didn’t seemed concerned about it at all, and I paid twenty bucks for a signed headshot, then he gave my buddy a signature on his con program for free. My friend’s mom made him give me ten dollars even though he didn’t know who Virgil was and didn’t care about the signature at all. Anyway, Chloe’s in jail and Virgil’s still making that Olive Garden money, so it all worked out.

That gif is a pretty good explanation for why the Brians deserved to lose.

Also, comparing Fowler to Macho Man is pretty complimentary for what I'm assuming is supposed to be an insult. And if there was a Team Hiro, they'd have walked the first round (Hiro Hase, Masahiro Chono, Hiroshi Tanahashi, Hiro Matsuda and Hiro Saito is a killer crew).

I watched BattleBowl 1993 after Wrestlemania ended. Aside warning people not to watch this the best part was during Steamboat/Regal vs Orndorff/Shockmaster when Schiavone and Ventura are talking about Regal beating Steamboat who had beat Orndorff for the TV title. Ventura says something to the effect of "Shockmaster lost to a wall. No walls in this match"!"

What are WWE's plans going forward?  I guess they have a taped show for tonight?  Are they still planning to try to tape RAW and SD somewhere?  

Also, what are they doing with ESPN and Fox.  ESPN announced three weeks of Wrestlemania rebroadcasts, the last of which aired yesterday.  Anything else planned?  Fox Sports 1 has some sort of deal with them on Tuesdays, but it looks like it might be for backstage features.  Tomorrow night is a marathon of Wrestllemania 24/7 specials.

I"d probably watch if they ran edited replays of old PPV's on FS1 or ESPN, but Vince probably doesn't want to pull subscribers away from the network to do that.  I could just re-subscribe to the Network, but I probably won't.  Don't enjoy watching on the computer much.

That gif makes me embarrassed to have the same name as that buffoon. 

 

May he rest in peace.

I think they should air the Edge or the Undertaker documentary or one of their better recent network specials that could probably gauge the interest of ESPN veiwers. Something that is fairly recent, maybe even the Bret or Undertaker Broken Skull sessions.

One of the recent WWE 24 documentaries that feature behind the scenes from the bigger shows like RR or Wrestlemania that could get people familiar with the modern guys and have people like Goldberg or somebody like that that those veiwers are familiar with.

I saw WM was offered by Fox for 60 bucks and that probably signifies the deal Vince was talking about on the last conference call. My assumption is that's it for the big 4 on the network. From now on those jokers go back to 60 bucks. 

Has anyone read anything about that?

I hope the "secret locations" thing is just a green screen, so everything looks like Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat. Add the health bars and timers while we're at it.

Actually, Dana White claims UFC is going to buy/rent a private island and resume running weekly events later this month.  So i’m going to be disappointed if Vince doesn’t build a space station and start running live shows before a sold out audience of moon people.
