This is such a dumb statement. It makes no sense since you could apply it to anyone and it requires no proof. What about Chris Hero? He's had great matches this year but got cut from NXT. Does that mean the indies suck? If I think Johnny Mundo has been better in Lucha Underground than he was in WWE, does this mean LU is no good? The amount of mental gymnastics and indy disdain needed for this to make sense is amazing. Hey, let's rewrite this using Okada, who was a flop in TNA: Callihan was a bad fit for NXT from the start and it seems he had trouble adapting his style. He was also injured for much of his run there. And by the time he was ready, many more "indy darlings" (fuck I hate that term) had come in and he got lost in the shuffle, not really given a chance. Fuck it, I'm voting for Callihan just out of spite.

Watching as Cousins is exposed and the fairweather DC and DC suburbs fans turn on him is going to be glorious. Seriously, the team limped into the playoffs one game over 500, on top of a terrible division and only beating losing teams. The problem is that any degree of success to this fanbase is like giving a drop of water to a man in the desert. There is nothing about last season that tells me the Cousins era won't be an abject failure. There's a car in my building's parking lot with an RG3 license plate. That poor bastard.

Busick is a huge Star Wars fan and also once walked in on Chris Jericho taking a dump. Vote Busick.

I get the impression the flash forwards are much further out. But who knows. Breaking Bad references in the last episode: The toy pig Mike and Kaylee are playing with is the one he eventually ties to a door to distract a hitman in the final season. Jimmy and Kim are watching Ice Station Zebra. Ice Station Zebra Associates will be the name of Saul's holding company for his law practice.

And people think Full Sail gets too cutesy. Yeah dude shame on those fans for enjoying themselves

Busick had a great year in PWG. Busick wrestled Thatcher in a great match and Busick vs Hero and Busick, Everett & Lee vs Bucks & Super Dragon, both from BOLA, are amazing.

I just saw this match over the weekend. It's GREAT.

Being a smart fan used to mean shitting on the big guys and liking indy dudes. Now it's the opposite. We are through the looking glass, people.

From some of the arguments here, it sounds like Tyler is getting sympathy votes because of how his push was killed. Please please don't anybody vote based on NXT Gargano alone.

Ah, thanks! Bookmarked.

Just like with Tyler Breeze, I don't think old school gimmicks like this have a place in wrestling anymore. Or are we supposed to be enjoying Kongo Kong ironically?

Apropos of nothing here but the best thing I saw Strong involved in was the PWG fans chanting "shitty little boots" at him, then one boot came off and they chanted "shitty little socks." Then the sock came off and they chanted "shitty little feet."

Funny how they created an entire video package for the Freebirds based around not using shots of them in their confederate flag getups.

Maybe we can just have Negan show up on Talking Dead and kill off Chris Hardwick instead

I just realized the PPV was their anniversary show, which adds to the lulz. "Let's celebrate 14 glorious years by jobbing out the roster to the guys you're really here to see!"

Dave apparently never saw any PWG ever until he started going to shows last year

If I go to Coltcabana.com and click "The Podcast," I'm taken to the Soundcloud page. If I click on the download button on any show, it prompts me to log in to Soundcloud. Thanks, Cleavy! I'll try that.

I had to look him up. No idea he was her father. Super talented guy. On a side note, he was part of a weird new age music/spoken word project called Celestial Navigations. I once worked at a new age radio station and we played their stuff and people loved it.

Wow. When the question "where does ROH go now after jobbing out half their roster?" was asked, that was not the answer I was looking for.

That is awesome, man. Congrats. Owning is so much better than renting (well, except for repairs and such) and wait 'til you do your taxes next year! Also, congrats to you, OSJ! Welcome to the club (non smoker for 18 years in April).

When you were pouring the Bisquik, were you TRYING to make pancakes? Rick is underestimating The Saviors and this is not going to end well.

Yeah, apparently when he signed Flair, Vince told him something to the effect of, "if I eventually end up using you at a level below the world title and you don't want that, you can leave." I don't know if that's true because it's unusually magnanimous but that's always been the story.

When they work over here, NJPW actually stands for No Jobs Pro Wrestling I thought the same thing but then I realized it doesn't matter. ROH is a promotion aimed squarely at smart marks who apparently don't care. ROH is just NJPW's minor league. The fans wanted to see a New Japan showcase at the expense of the ROH roster and that's what they got. I'm still amazed that the ROH roster went 0-5, though. There's got to be some middle ground between "their guys shouldn't beat our guys (TM Kevin Dunn) and outright whoring your promotion.

In a world where the Canadian destroyer is laughed at, it's totally cool for Kurt Angle to essentially suplex himself. I mean holy fuck, look at it. Benoit waistlocks him and then he does a standing moonsault.

Maybe they would have just switched places and Leon would have gone to WWE. Hogan loved him some monster heels.
