Somewhere out there is an alternate universe where TL Hopper has been renowned for over two decades as the most electrifying man in sports entertainment, and Rocky Maivia was that one guy who came out to the ring with a plunger.

I agree in principle, though I would say it is more like someone using Meltzer (or whoever) for that purpose.

Unfortunately he chose to live in Nashville, so he’s winning a little less every day.

From everything I've heard, Nashville is pretty sweet. 10 to 12 of us were supposed to rent a house down there for the weekend in November to go out, eat, party, etc., but I don't think that's happening now ? 6 of us turn 40 this year in the months of October and November, hence why so many of us were going down there.

I think doing a show from a Beach or Cruiseship like one of those Spring Break Nitros or early 90's Bash at the Beach could be fun. At least it would be visually different than the performance center which I thin we are all sick of
