  1. Not a botch. Scott Steiner is so terrifying you will literally ram your own head into something if he commands it.
  2. "You should not use verbiage written by a producer"...............is followed by several pages of verbiage written by producers, including a laundry list of some the most unnatural turns of phrase imaginable, "say this not that" bullshit and $5 words where 5 cent words would suffice.
  3. Put part timers over your full timers? This isn't WWE. These matches signed for Brooklyn bring up the question: what is ROH supposed to be in 2015? They now have weekly TV and they sort of have storylines but then they book cards like this that have nothing to do with what's on TV; they're more like ROH's old model where you book indy dream matches to sell DVDs. It's very weird to me.
  4. Re: wrestlers you irrationally dislike -- Is it irrational to dislike AJ Styles because he comes off (in interviews on podcasts and such) like a disgusting, bigoted redneck?
  5. You would get ran out of town for questioning the existence of Bojangle's down here. LOL! Info online is sketchy but, from what I gather, any restaurants north of DC closed down sometime in the late 80s/early 90s. Since I lived in Baltimore and this was pre-Internet, I assumed they were bought out by Popeye's or something since all the Bojangles near me disappeared and most were replaced by Popeye's. Checking their site now, it looks like all Maryland locations are in the DC suburbs only, which is cool with me because that's where I live now.
  6. That doesn't come across in LU. Are we just supposed to assume he's a rich, classy guy because that was his WWE gimmick? I haven't seen him in a suit or driving an expensive car to the ring in LU. Shit, he even wrestled in a T-shirt AND his boots still said "ADR" at least once or twice. Nothing rich about not buying new gear. I'll definitely stay off the ffwd button for his next matches and give him a chance. As I said, I think a big part of it was how dull he came across in WWE. EDIT: It's still not as bad as Son of Havoc's "masked biker who does Crossfit" gimmick.
  7. I was there in person for the match and remember the buildup and I still have no idea what I watched. They acted like the gimmick was that Precious was supposed to be lured to the dark side by Sullivan and that nobody knew whose side she was on, and that her siding with Garvin in the end was a big deal. But I remember the shows leading up to it and in no was was it booked that way. There was no doubt she was on Garvin's side so the ending was just anticlimactic. The match was dumb and convoluted and, from what I recall, they never really explained the rules too well in the buildup. All I really rememberis Sullivan's promos ("I AM BUILDING A TOWAH"). It was such a desperate attempt to outdo the Wargames.
  8. I do but I still ffwd through his stuff. I'll give him a try but "angry ex WWE guy who punched a dude for being a bigot" is a weak gimmick to hang your sombrero on.
  9. Alberto El Patron. It's probably because he still has the stink of WWE's boring midcard on him, but I just can't get into the guy. He's just so bland. I have no idea what he's supposed to be.
  10. Oh WWE. "You guys remember our top guy from 20 years ago when wrestling was hot, right? Well he's in this game so please buy it!"
  11. I'm absolutely hooked on Banshee now. Just saw the episode with this, the best fight scene in a show full of them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJMHd7-LL1k
  12. Cole was better on commentary here than Ross was on Wrestle Kingdom.
  13. I only started watching in 2010 so that's a little before my time, but that's awesome.
  14. Oh shit. Right, there were more Sarah Connors in the phonebook; I believe the one who got all caught up in these adventures was the third. Maybe John Connor was the son of one of the Sarahs further down. So Skynet is wasting time constantly sending Terminators after the wrong people while the real John Connor lived a peaceful existence, maybe joined the National Guard or something.
  15. Right, Rick Knox (who also refs for Lucha Underground) has had an on and off issue with the Bucks going way back. They had a pretty good sort-of blowoff a little while back with the Bucks and Brian Cage vs Knox, Steen & Generico.
  16. Not since Bob Orton and Juvi has a wrestling friendship mystified and seduced us all.
  17. Minnesota Stretching Crew??? "Kofi not Shelton!" All feels same when lights are off
  18. Kofi once removed a large thorn from Brock's massive paw and they've been friends ever since.
  19. Just felt like posting two indestructible ladder gifs
  20. Counterpoint: A sequel to Olympus Has Fallen, which was better than it had any right to be and I enjoyed more than White House Down? Yes please.
  21. Guys who have seen this: I enjoyed Terminator 3 & 4, which many critics and fans considered to be crap. With that in mind, would I like this one?
  22. Is Cesaro giving Cena the ring fingers to denote The Brass Ring? Because that's awesome.
