Page must be road buddies with Kevin Owens.

I've been to a great deal of live wrestling but in very few buildings: Baltimore Arena over multiple name changes. It's amazing it's been there since 1962. The old Capitol Center for whatever 90s Survivor Series was there Verizon Center (Starrcade 97) Philadelphia National Guard Armory for the ROH show with the Kobashi Joe Ki Homicide tag. Basketball City in NY for whatever ROH show had Danielson & Joe vs KENTA & Marufuji The minor league baseball stadium in Frederick, MD, whose name escapes me. WWE used to go there every Summer until it rained one year 2-3 matches in and they had to cancel the show and come back in September to make good. A few tiny places somewhere in the Baltimore area, probably converted grocery stores, for some local sleazy indies back in the day. I did get to see King Kahlua vs Tom Brandi! Yay. The Clarence Du Burns "arena" where ROH did a bunch of tapings when they first got on Sinclair. I guess I'd say the Baltimore Arena was the best purely for nostalgia reasons. You name any legend from the late 70s and on and I probably saw him there live. I was there for everything from the Bunkhouse Stampede shows to Attitude-era Raws. I even saw Bruno's last match there, teaming with Hogan against Gang & Bundy. The minor league stadium was also awesome due to the cool atmosphere of seeing big name wrestling outdoors at a small venue like that. The main of one of the shows was Benoit defending the title against HHH and we had seats on the field itself. The Du Burns arena was fun because I knew an employee who got me in free and also because the bathrooms were in the same hallway as the locker room, so you'd always run into wrestlers when going to take a leak. Worst would probably be the Verizon Center. We were a few rows from the very top of the arena and it was just awful. Definitely one of those "vertical" arenas where everything above lower concourse just sucks.

Black champion.

So anyone who had "Star Wars, Fight Club and The Sixth Sense" on their Plot Twist Bingo Card is a big winner. At least they're self-aware regarding the stuff they're ripping off paying homage to. That subtle piano piece at the end of the episode was definitely a cover of The Pixies' "Where is My Mind," which was playing during the closing scene in Fight Club.

"Eat fresh"

Both that pic and the Taker/Brock/Heyman/Steph pic are in serious need of a Brazzers logo.

...because he is a horrible actor. Dude couldn't hide his Aussie accent if you held a gun to his head. I just rewatched Terminator 4 (yeah, fuck you, I like that movie) and the guy still sounds like Crocodile Dundee half the time. re Dean Winters: dude almost died. Everything after that is gravy.

Gay/Trans Asian hacker is already played out and done better with Hoon Lee as Job from Banshee. Everybody else is just playing for second.

He looks like he should have a Civil War reenactor gimmick. Is his actual nickname "The Carolina Caveman" or is that just something Excalilbur coined?

Baltimore Batman died

Mundo or Alberto maybe?

A coworker just sent me this...awesome Star Wars prints

Nah, Beadle getting all pissy about Triple H supporting Floyd Mayweather killed that. Yeah man fuck her for calling out HHH for supporting a woman beater. Broads, amirite? Musta been on her period, eh?

I still find myself hate watching it and I have no idea why. It's fucking terrible.

Exactly, that's one thing I can't fault Dunn for. Saying Dunn has no right to judge others' looks because he's ugly is like saying you can't critique a match unless you're wrestled or can't judge a film unless you've directed one. Just a dumb, intellectually dishonest argument.

This is a great point, and other have made it here as well. For all Dunn's faults, this still rests at Vince's feet. Word has always been that Dunn is lazy, taking the easy route and producing a homogenized, dull program, and he is very good at convincing Vince that this is the way it needs to be. From everything that ex writers, etc have said, Dunn is good at playing to Vince's worst instincts and his ego to keep in his good graces (Craig's "echo chamber" comment is spot on). All that being said, this is still all Vince's fault. If Dunn were gone, would nothing change? I'd like to think it would if the right person took over but do I feel it would definitely be slow.

If you can, drink some water while you drink. And throw back a B12 or two.

Maybe just tell Vince Sr that, while Dunn Daddy is a stand up dude, Dunn Jr will be worthless, so don't do it.

Normally I'm with you but you could drink Bud Light all day and still pilot the space shuttle.

jesus christ

It's not the announcers, it's the micromanaginfg lunatic with bizarre ideas about wrestling yelling in their ears.

Too bad it's Ultima Lucha and not NJPW. He'd fill in the alleged plot holes himself and pimp the storylines for a year-end award

Wait what

The funny thing about Dunn is that every defender, or dude just trying to be contrarian for fun, has the same defense. "Everything we know about him comes from second hand sources." Like everything we "know" about every other person involved in wrestling isn't second hand? I never saw Orton shit in any bags nor have I heard him talk about it. I never heard Michael Hayes drop the old N bomb. With a few exceptions, everything we think we know about the personalities of anyone in wrestling is either secondhand information or inferred by their actions. Yet somehow, this is a valid defense when it comes to Kevin Dunn.

Wait, Nick Stahl has fallen on hard times and is having drug issues? The John Connor Curse! Somebody tell Bale to watch himself.
