  1. Found via a random message board
  2. I hate the fans of the teams I love
  3. I might as well say this now because I didn't say it originally and just figured I wouldn't bother but the "I Never Saw Star Wars" Thread rekindled the thought in my head. I am interested in how much the passage of time AND hype effects these matches negatively. The reason I mentioned the Stars Wars thread is because in there I mention that I have never seen the Godfather movies. If I watched them now - I don't think there is anyway they could live up to the hype that surrounds them and thus when I don't love them as much as someone else (because I could easily see a scenario where I enjoy them but wouldn't think they were even the best movie released in their respective years). I feel like introducing these matches (or other things of a similar variety) are subject to the same scenarios. Why do I bring this up? Just because I think it is a matter of perspective that some folks might forget when someone in this project doesn't think they are good (like for example - Goodear. Who I am only naming because he seems to be the furthest along.) To me personally - I have no issue if folks don't like the matches. Maybe that makes me wacky in these days of the internet. I mean I will never agree with Matt if he still says that that one Demolition match is the Greatest of All Time (since I am old and stupid - I can't remember the opponents). But the point is that folks will actually watch the stuff. I think they are important enough that a wrestling fan should watch... which again is the point of this whole project in the first place. It might not end up with thinking Misawa vs. Kawada is great but someone might suddenly be all "Shit - that Taue dude is aces." And when the fuck did we all stop caring about discovery? Don't ask me why I am getting all preemptively overprotective on the concept of discussion but here we are.
  4. Remember how Craig said he kinda liked Konnan? I think Konnan wearing the Barry Sanders jersey should kill that
  5. So apparently the Saints are moving their preseason practices to West Virginia So depending on where you live in VA - you will be much closer to the Saints preseason than the Skins
  6. That is 1000% Scott Steiner dropping Konnan. You are correct that Ray Traylor is in the bottom left though EDIT - in fact Taylor is brawling with Norton
  7. Only one time I have ever even been in a room with a crate drop was the Crew only session where it dropped right in front of Dolfan
  8. Yeah.... you so aren't going to want to read this then
  9. I was terrified for a half a second because I needed to double check the Best of the 90s lucha results to see if Konnan somehow backdoored his way into one of them Thankfully he did not.
  10. I got two weeks of guys saved up Matt - patience...
  11. My wife enjoyed the sing along way more than me - but that was due to song choice
  12. Hey Konnan - maybe look down before you preform your move you goof
  13. Hey! I can quote you and save you time Full Recap Is Here
  14. I think it's pretty telling that my "fondest" memory of Konnan is basically 20 years ago watching one of those giant AAA brawls and eventually "Another One Bites The Dust" plays and Schneider goes "Wait - is JYD making the save???" God - what I wouldn't have paid for JYD to truly be making that save... and to not be dead.
  15. Fuck - the entire story seemed to be written just so they could do that. I really should have seen it coming too considering what I had unlocked earlier in the game too. I also realized that since there is an achievement for spending time with homies outside of missions, I will need to continue to play just to get folks to roll with me and listen to their conversations
  16. Yeah - this is going to be the long teased GUYS I HATE WEEK because yeah, that is where my head is at right now. And boy do I fucking HATE Konnan. I am not sure if I hate him more for his shitty ring work or because of him being Meltzer's only lucha source and horrifically skewing his opinion on lucha. OH! and for convincing Barnett to not tape the Star of Death match.
  17. Yeah - my Male Shepard Soldier had a TON of problems getting through that prison. My Female Shepard Infiltrator only needed to do it twice - and the first one was because I got stuck on some cover and died trying to get out. I am not sure if you picked it or not - but Disruptor Ammo is quite handy during that time too
  18. This shouldn't be close but y'all have been known to be stupid AUSTIN/PILLMAN MISAWA/KOBASHI http://youtu.be/fCE2HOpuGmY
  19. I don't think this will be close... but it should be... FREEBIRDS http://youtu.be/5Zn9IQCd1lM http://youtu.be/s8yyap-CpaY HANSEN/BRODY http://youtu.be/BayNfuyeD8Q
  20. See now Gonzo is stealing my bits from other threads
  21. Speaking of Sanada Apparently Wrestle-1 announced that he has signed full time with TNA but will still make an occasional appearance in Japan I am not sure that changed anything but there ya go
  22. Yeah - that is why I didn't post the clip. It was a through back to the days when Bix would send Dean and Schneider tapes (oh yeah - the Bixlevision jokes will never not be funny to me). Anyway - this happened 18 years ago today. We are all fucking old And speaking of bad VQ - every version posted sucks
