  1. He doesn’t even get JTTS matches like say Anthony Henry
  2. I'll never understand having Angelico under contract and basically not using him
  3. Here's a face book tip. Let's say you have a crazy uncle frank who just won't shut up about vaccine conspiracies. There's an option to unfollow him but keep him in your friends list so his nonsense doesn't show up in your feed and lead to arguments
  4. Buff’s mom really loved him. Putting up with the indignity of the Judy Bagwell forklift match (worth noting that this is Bishoff more or less repeating an angle with Jericho’s dad minus the “on a pole”) I saw one episode of that Gigilos shows and it looked like real sex shot from a wide angle
  5. Pretty surprised to hear Marlyn Manson is touring with Five Flavored Fruit Punch after everything that went down with him
  6. So I went and got a ticket to the Ontario show
  7. Ole Anderson tells hilarious Lord Alfred Hayes story (youtube.com)
  8. I've seen that resurface, recently. Now Brody seemed to want the big payday with Hogan and would have been prevented from doing a job. I also wonder if it was ever considered to do the final blow off of Piper v Hogan in the cage at WM2
  9. If Miro is such a malcontent why bring in his wife?
  10. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9uXm0-tZ1g&ab_channel=SteelPantherVEVO Malice Munn?
  11. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3iq0gn Ric Flair vs. Lex Luger - Great American Bash 1988 - NWA WCW
  12. Didn't realize the future Eugene did this much WCW job work, plus The Disciple is kinda insidery if you don't know about his and Hogan's real life friendship especially since he changed his appearance with the beard
  13. I just watched the video and i guess its from that era where every damn song had to have a rap verse whether it needed it or not
  14. I've read the book twice and both times came away so exhausted by Frank Herberts longwindedness that I've never read any of the sequels, and I guess this is why I prefer the various adaptations (both the recent films and the David Lynch version never saw the SCIFI mini series) much like I think The Godfather Films are superior to the book, in both cases I felt the source material was in need of an edit.
  15. Gypsyhawk "Eyes of Ibad" (youtube.com) just got back from the new Dune movie
  16. RINGMASTER: Vince McMahon and the unmaking of America by Abraham Josephine Riesman 356pgs Pretty much the definitive history of one Vincent Kennedy McMahon and his all consuming lust for glory. Does a very heavily researched deep dive into Vince's history, childhood, and relationship with his father through his various scandals (steroids, ring boys, wrestler deaths) to his push for deregulation into his relationship with trump and Lindas forays into politics. A good bit at the end about Owens death and the screw jobs and the idea of wrestlers as independent contractors (which dove tails with our recent conversation about people not wanting to cross him for fear of losing potential income). A theme of the coarsening of American culture runs through the book, tracing Vince's long friendship with Trump to possibly Vince's sort of greasing the skids for Trumps presidency and Trump basically using WWE's promotional tactics. Book kinda ends a bit to early with Vince resigning (the first time) due to the Wall Street Journal's reporting on his hush money payments so maybe a chapter on Ms. Grant for the paper back as that was truly his final undoing. I'm reminded of two books first Sex, Lies and Headlocks which get a thanks in the acknowledgements , which covered the various scandals of the 90's but felt much more tabloidy and muckraking. Also Jim Smallman's I'm Sorry I Love You which I revied a few pages back as you probably are familiar with most of the material covered but this goes into much greater detail, and i got new incite in some of the scandals which have been talk about for decades. The Author actually went to Vince's hometown and talked to people who he grew up with so you get a sense of the man (also some solid genealogical research into Vince's family tree apparently him and Rod where full brothers, not half as I'd previously seen reported) overall a very serious piece of reporting, reading the acknowledgements you see how far she went in interviewing people who have either covered wrestling or been involved in it. You will certainly find something enlightening in this story that we endlessly discuss here.
  17. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/triptykon/2023/the-lawn-at-white-oak-houston-tx-53bbcfb1.html first two albums Hells Hero’s seem to book a lot of classic sets
  18. Is CMLL no longer considered the old timey promotion compared to AAA?
  19. Primo Colon v Bryan Keith Jazmyn Allure v Zamaya
  20. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCp2h5jslKY&ab_channel=zttrecords this is the verison of Relax that made MTV apparently, the super gay video didn't pass the censors neither did the slightly edited version. Some industrial metal group needs to do a cover of this song
  21. He calls it Triumph of Death when he does the Hellhammer set Last year I also saw hm do an Early Celtic Frost Set
