I had forgotten how awesome the Giant beatdowns are with all the random babyfaces running down to help Hogan and getting plastered for their troubles. I also love Savage's random interjections in promos around this time, cutting off Sting every other sentence with things like "YOU GOT IT!" and "YOU THINK SO?" as poor Stinger tries to keep his promo on track.

Meng is hungover and is ready to beat you to death by himself.

I'm watching the first Monday Night Wars episode and, I know I should be used to it but fuck, "Sports Entertainment" and "Superstars" will never, ever sound anything other than awkward to me. It's absolutely amazing that this company has stuck with Sports Entertainment for decades despite there being no evidence of anyone calling it anything other than wrestling. Again, if they put as much effort into their booking as they do their dumb fucking catchphrases and revisionist history, we'd have a far better wrestling landscape.

Yeah, I agree, Mick Foley was fucking awesome.

Bray Wyatt should add spitting black mist into his opponents eyes. Imagine that shit running down his beard and looking all nasty in his teeth and on his white pants. If I can't get blood, give me "demon essence."
I'm sorry about that. Deep down, I sort of want Bray Wyatt to partially morph into Kevin Sullivan.
I need this.
Yes, I now also need this. He can say it's the vengeance of the lord running through him

Vince calling out Kermit the Frog is the best. It wasn't even playful, it was "THAT FUCKIN FROG."
There has to be a way we get Kermit vs. Vince in a Backstage Brawl at Mania.
Yeah, it's great. Did Kermit do something to Vince on TV when the Muppets were on Raw? I'd love to think Vince believes they're real and they went off script on him and this is his revenge; ruining Kermit's felt body.

Nice to see that gym hasn't changed in 20 years.
That video was only missing Bret Hart advertising Ico Pro in the background.

I have just acquired WCW Saturday Night 1994 and 1999 (and Heat 1999). Can anyone recommend matches from these seasons? I have seen Regal vs Zbysko from 1994 but not much else!
I've just spent a silly amount of time looking at Heat results from 99 on HistoryofWWE and here's things that have jumped out at me from a WTF standpoint in that way that only C shows can:
Lion's Den Match: Owen Hart vs. Steve Blackman - 1/10
Shane McMahon vs. Gillberg - 2/21
Public Enemy vs. The Hardys - 2/28
Boiler Room Brawl: Mankind vs. Bossman - 5/2
Al Snow vs. Head - 5/9
Dudley Boys vs. Jericho and Curtis Hughes - 10/10
Rikishi vs. Tracy Smothers - 11/21
I know this is a WCW thread but god damn if those matches aren't in the spirit of WCW random match pairings (and stipulations).

Oh, how I missed this.
I had a friend who was a huge mark for Rob Conway and Chris Masters in 2005-2006. What a weird twosome to have as your favorite two guys.
My cousin loved The Heart Throbs because of their entrance and the funny little dance they used to do. He would watch Heat at silly times here (UK) to catch them and was completely convinced that they were going to stick around for years based on that entrance.
hahaha, yeah, it's still a pretty great little dance.

The next big indy guy shaking hands with HHH should be Timothy Thatcher

My theory about the music is that there's a big jukebox linked to the PA system and the guys all have to enter PINs for their theme to hit.
Maybe they have little microchip planted in their feet like those late 90's WWF action figures.
I had that. If you put a guy on there who had the chips on their feet but didn't have a corresponding theme, you'd get a random one playing. I also remember putting it in the attic and being woke up 5/6 years later by it repeatedly playing Stone Cold's music. I can only assume some ghosts were having a grand old time up there.
As an aside, I don't mind Eva Marie smiling at Brock's entrance because I did the exact same when he interrupted that nonsense. Hulk Hogan's birthday party, come the fuck on.

I'm watching the 95 Rumble for the first time and Jarrett is absolutely great in the opener. He and The Roadie are excellent at stalling and then the transition to ripping apart the knee after the restart is so natural and really puts Jarrett over as someone to fear. Razor comes out of it looking great too.

Hey, it's Eddie Guerrero being the FUCKING MAN

Orndorff laughing when Brock said "Party's over, Grandpa" was comfortably the best thing on this show. Though, I fast forwarded through 85% of it because everything else is garbage but still, I'm here for Lesnar and Lesnar only at this point.

Why do you think we were stiffing each other in the first place? You spend 2 hours getting pissed off at each other on that and then commence with the fighting.

My retirement came when twelve-year-old me took a bad pedigree. The carpeted floor shredded my face. I couldn't bare to make eye contact with anyone for about a week.
When I was a kid, I remember "inventing" the Fisherman's DDT so I got my cousin in the headlock, hooked his leg and just spiked him on the floor. After he recovered, I let him superkick me in the face and it staggered me back into a cabinet that I promptly broke. Our wrestling was like a Concession Stand Brawl, complete with magazines used as chair shots and baking trays used as weapons when we got into the kitchen. You had to pay your dues to get into our House Wrestling Federation. It was like ECW but without the hardcore narcotics to numb the pain of jumping down stairs.
I read this as a Concussion Stand Brawl, and well, from what was read, it doesn't seem too far off.
I saved that for doing supremely stupid stuff later on. I lay, stomach first, on a skateboard and got pushed down a hill and ended up cracking my head off the edge of a stone grit box which had me woozy for a while. I don't think it caused any real damage to my cerebram cjd cjfvnw;eflkdgnvr'f
as for the lid suggestion, that's a good one but we probably would have chokeslammed somebody through the entire box to get a good near-fall.

Never DDT a kid on his Bar Mitzvah day. When you know his tooth out you will
a. Piss off an over protective Jewish mother
b. Be disinvited to the event
c. Prove that maybe Sergi wasn't ready to be a man at 13
I'd have grabbed the mic and requested they carry him out on a stretcher, not a chair.

Says a company that has employed multiple people who shat in hand bags.
It's almost like it's a company run by hypocritical children.

Cena's finest work in that series IMO. Nobody got close to dragging anything like that out of Khali again. His selling in the gifs is great, it's like he's getting whiplash with every hit.

Those Spike negotiations must be great.
"OK, Dixie, you have until Christmas but Russo has to go"
"OK, I can accept that"
TNA appoint new head writer Lance Brusso to lead them into the new era

SEPT WRESTLING DISCUSSION THREAD
in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
Posted
Yeah, at this point, Khali is probably just around so Vince can laugh at the idea of him and Hornswoggle standing next to each other. Cena/Khali at Judgment Day 07 is his best match IMO. I say it all the time but it's a masterclass from John Cena.
