I took me much longer (22 minutes), but same issue with the bottom left corner for me.

Maybe that is as good as time as any: I hate the Borg as main villains, they are completely one-note "you are going to be assimilated". There is only so much you can do with them besides having them as seemingly unstoppable force. You can have them being a thread to your very existence (like done in Best of Both Worlds and later), you have main characters getting assimilated (again Best of Both Worlds), free a Borg (again Best of Both Worlds (and later), as well as I, Borg and Voyager) and have people deal with the fallout of your planet getting assimilated (Generations, I guess?). You can do so much more with Romulans, Cardassians, Founders, Klingons ... It was good and well for a couple of episodes in TNG, the movie was also fine because adding the Borg Queen gave it a bit more dimensionality, but bringing them back for Voyager and Picard (and even for one episode Enterprise) was not necessary. Literally any other race would have been more interesting. Well, maybe not in Voyager because the races they came up with for that show also were hit and miss at best.

Even without the goatee Head aged a lot: Though I should add that this picture is from an article titled "Anthony Head sometimes doesn’t recognize himself on ‘Ted Lasso,’ and he likes it that way"

Zombie Undertaker used an elbowdrop as transition for years - I don't think he ever hit that move. The Flair doing the Stevens spot getting clothelined in 999/1000 tries is also a good candidate.

Cagematch has matches with him listed as "Harry Fujiwara" (early to mid 60ies, mostly in Hawaii), "Masa Fujjwara" (late 60ies to early 70ies, again mostly in Hawaii plus a bit in Vancouver), "The Great Fuji" (for Roy Shire in 75 & 76) and as "Shintaro Fuji" (Australia 67). I would not be certain about the "Masa Fujiwara" name though, in that same time period he is also listed as "Mr. Fujiwara" in Hawaii (and as "Mr. Fuji" during the same period - but I would assume that he was using some version of Fujiwara in Hawaii as long as he was a regular there, i.e. until 71).

Yeah, that's pretty much how it went for me too (minus someone else making fun of me). In addition to face blindness I seem to be name blind as well (as in if you remove the middle name, I will have problems recognizing the name). And the face blindness, let's just say if I meet someone in an unexpected place or I see someone for the first time after a couple of years, I will pretend that I did not see them and wait if they react on me. For example, last week when I was watering the flowers at the family grave, I saw a woman who I thought might be my cousin, but I was not sure so I waited for her to great me. That cousin lives in the same small town as me, though to be fair, I only see her every couple of years, she is 10 years older than me and therefore we basically had no relationship when I was a kid (and obviously neither do so now). It really was my cousin, by the way. And people changing their hairstyle are completely fucking with my brain. After going over the Wikipedia article of "prosopagnosia", funny that you should mention Brad Pitt, because he listed as suffering from face blindness as well, so he might not recognize you either.

or Vince at Over the Edge 98

It's Anthony Stewart Head, aka Giles from Buffy. He even has the same first name in Ted Lasso (Rupert). He has done a lot of stuff since Buffy (I guess Little Britain would be the most prominent thing I guess), none of which I have seen and, well, Head is now 20 years olders.

It took me 2.5 seasons to realize who the actor that plays her ex-husband is.

Silvio Berlusconi has passed away at the age of 86. I might be an asshole but I can think of worse ways to start a week.

I finished White House Plumbers today and am somewhat shocked about the mediocre reaction by critics (62 on Metacritic). Harrelson, Theroux and Headey knock it out of the park acting wise and the writing (and directing etc.) also is pretty good. There might be a loose end here or there that they introduced that didn't need to be there (for example, I am not sure if the show needed any of the JFK murder speculation - a wink here or there would have been fine, but blatantly saying that United Airlines Flight 553 was sabotaged because Dorothy Hunt knew something about what happened in Dallas was not in the spirit of the show), but in total I think they chose well on what to concentrate. While clicking through some Wikipedia pages (to check some facts, history etc.), I noticed that almost all of the "plumbers" reached a high age - Liddy died at the age of 90, Hunt at 88, the burglars got to 98, 93, 92, 88 and only Sturgis died at a relatively young age (68).

No Glenn Jacobs joke? Come on.

Someone took "Los Perros del Mal" too literal.

Here is one: cagematch has two other wins of his marked as TV matches (against Mike Winner in 94 and against Chad Brook in 96), but who knows if those weren't actually dark matches.

Stupid questions: there are wrestlers who are part of SAG, right? Would those people strike w.r.t. wrestling shows as well?

I think that was a one-off (Rogers had one other match with Brian Christopher taped on the same night, a Raw and Shotgun Saturday Night taping in the metropolis of Lake Placid in front of 2700 fans - I did not realize that they still did those small-town Raws by the summer of 97) organized by Jim Cornette. I know Corny has talked about the circumstances of that match, maybe on WWF Timeline.

I saw Cannonball Grizzly live in 2005 and I think he lost some weight by that point, at least I don't remember him looking that fat.

Apros pos Akeem: How many "fat" 80ies and early 90ies wrestlers are still alive? I was recently watching World War 3 95 and was trying to count the number of people who are dead by now (15, I think, by the way) and when One Man Gang entered I automatically wanted to add him to the list until I went, wait, he is still alive, is he. But there are not many of those guys besides George Gray still standing.

Blackadder IV is a good call. I recently watched Space Force and the second (and last) season ended with the indication that the earth is about to get hit by a big ass meteroid.

I assume that by "working in Atlanta for Ted Turner" Hogan meant GCW where Hogan was working in late 79. cagematch has two Georgia results for Graham in that timeframe as well, most notably an Omni show which had Hogan on the card as well (beating Stan Hansen by the way): https://www.cagematch.net/?id=1&nr=26355

He was one of the top wrestlers in Alberta as a junior though he stopped wrestling when he dropped out of college to become a pro. How much that means in legit fighting skills is another topic.

I was pretty sure that I either hit a bad ending or that this was a fake ending and that somewhen during the credits the game would resume, but nope, that's what they came up with. They really doubled down on the Monkey Island 2 ending.

And/including wrestling, I guess?

Who is Jarrett supposed to be the son of? Context wise I assume it is Nick Gulas or maybe Roy Welch, but I don't think I ever heard that one.

Until a couple of years ago I thought that Taz was black, though his real name should have been a giveaway.
