Matt D Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 (edited) Blousons Noirs (Claude Gessat/Marcel Manneveau) vs Jacky Corn/Gass Doukhan Noirs were such a great heel act. Not long after this, a fan tries to attack the REF! for not doing a better job and they let the good guys take over again for a bit to cool things off. And here's Manneveau stooging like a king.

Gordi the former AEW fan Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 OK. Lets see if I can explain this. Meat in Japanese is "niku." The numbers 2 and nine are " ni" and "kyu" more or less. So the 29th is meat day, and to celebrate Mos Burger in Japan is offering special Okada Kazuchika collaboration burgers on April May and June 29th. If I manage to get one, I'll let you know about it. Maybe in the merch or food threads. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimbra Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 There are probably a lot of Awesome/Tanaka spots that should be strong contenders. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Phil's podcast him and somebody else were going through Kendo Nagasaki (the Japanese one)'s career and said that Dusty at one point billed him as Chang Chung. The non-Phil guy did a Dusty impersonation and said "I SEE YO NAME IN BIG LIGHTH... CHANG CHUNG." I about fell over. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that these two guy's signature spots was just powerbombing each other out of the ring repeatedly every time they face each other. I loved that shit so much back then. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't just the power bombs, it was the to rope chair shots, the tornado DDTs on a pile of chairs, and all the tables. 17 year old me couldn't get enough. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The top rope chair shots are randomly replayed In my head because they were so satisfying to watch. It helped that the ECW ring sounded like a shotgun was fired every time they hit each other.

When I saw the name, I had to look up who that was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BP) Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Cena learned from Dwayne that you’ve truly crossed over when you can cynically patronize other professional wrestlers on social media to that degree and it’ll mostly be interpreted as charming and heartfelt.

hammerva Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 After seeing this and her many other striking examples, it is clear that the way more interesting WrestleMania match is Rousey vs Shane McMahon in a boxing match. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
