the Death Riders are still at the top of the card, but they make up a much smaller portion of TV time.

WRESTLING ON THE INTERNET NOT FROM THE NOW
twiztor replied to RIPPA's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
i originally subbed him for the TNA Xplosion episodes he was uploading, but there's been SO much good stuff! -
i thought Canadian bacon was known as "back bacon" up there.

i'm glad you did! i saw the original "Age of Revelation" tease a week or two back when it came out, and i just assumed it was the latest crossover. Since i'm not currently reading X-Men comics, i promptly ignored it. But if we're talking alternate timelines/possible futures/etc., then my interest is piqued! P.S. can i get i that "Radioactive Spider-Man" book to somehow star Ben Reilly? Do me this favor, Brevoort!

Video Games 2025 VIDEO GAMES CATCH ALL THREAD
twiztor replied to RIPPA's topic in COMPUTERS & GAMES & TECH
i started playing Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom like 2 months ago. BOTW really sucked me in and i couldn't get enough of it. for me, TOTK feels.....fine? it definitely doesn't grab me the same way. I'm somewhere around 50 shrines solved but haven't started the main quest. in BOTW, my favorite part was the exploration, but here it just feels rote. I'm hoping that by jumping into the actual storyline i will find that hook. -
i am certainly intrigued. probably won't buy all of those issues physically (i am pretty firmly in the 'all or nothing' category, and 16 titles is too many) but i will definitely read it. i look forward to seeing the creative teams attached, and to find out how long this will last (the article says "for the foreseeable future"). I'm not really a fan of this overlapping with the "X-Men of Apocalypse" mini tho. Like, i get the 30 year anniversary thing, but why are they both starting in the fall? Won't these two similar-but-distinct series directly compete with each other?
-
the biggest thing holding me back from embracing this idea is that Hangman's last reign was a pretty huge letdown. It was an extended and somewhat heatless feud with Adam Cole. If the two top babyfaces (other than Hangman himself) are viewed as on his level but unable to get a title shot, it could skew into feeling like a Lame Duck reign. If Coach Tony K can avoid that, then i agree that sidelining them out of title contention makes perfect sense. maybe?
-
that's a pretty boss (pardon the pun) collab, TBH. can we get Timeless Toni to be sponsored by 1930s Warner Bros Animation? i NEED to see that crossover.
-
holy shit. i have no memory of hearing about this, but i very well could have. what kind of dumbass details his entire plans over the phone? what a complete idiot. yeah, let me agree with the (...) this is actually pretty smart, to hopefully deter any copycats (since Lawler obviously would continue to be gone each week) but, whether it's true or not, this i would never admit to.
-
while we're on the YouTube convo, i see the Bryan Turner VHS channel has started a series going through the Sleaze Thread topics. i can't decide whether i'm relieved that he's referring to it as the "Angelfire Sleaze List", or upset that DVDVR doesn't get the full credit/blame for it. (he does mention the board early in the video but it's kind of a passing mention)
-
i saw that it got posted to the YouTubes but haven't given it a watch yet. Was interested in Thunder Rosa's match, but i also thought she was facing Athena here (nope, that's at Supercard of Honor). AEW at Arena Mexico looked so cool that i can't imagine this being fun at the very least.

it has been a hellacious couple of weeks, so this week's post is kind of a jumble of bits and leftover pieces that didn't fit elsewhere. i had planned for this to be longer, so i guess look forward to next week to see what else i was going to have here. WWF: The Music, Vol. 5 2. K-Kwik – Rowdy (3:14) 11. Rikishi – Bad Man (3:15) 14. the Rock – Pie (feat. Slick Rick) (3:44) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGfbgsyTY3k&list=PLKfCbyMyyIb-7gWaCXC7qGB-Db1Povjpi https://www.discogs.com/master/431373-World-Wrestling-Federation-James-A-Johnston-WWF-The-Music-Vol-5 “Rowdy” is a pretty hard hitting rap song. In contract to his later solo album, the beat just feels like an instrumental track, rather than part of a song. Truth's vocals are more prominent, and he uses a slower style- it very much sounds like one of those “celebrity rap” singles, where they're not fully comfortable so worry more about making sure their words are clear than staying on beat. This song is decent, and is about on par with the WWE Originals album that came out a couple years later. “Bad Man” evokes some DMX sounds early on. This had me nodding my head. Rikishi really represents himself well here. He's got solid verses, and the chorus is fine. But then the last minute is just the beat running out. That was certainly a choice. “Pie” is entertaining. I mean, it's not amazing or anything, but the Rock utilizes a storytelling style that works here. The guest appearance by Slick Rick is pretty great. But the Rock's verses are infused with the same type of comedy he was using in his promos at the time. Hell, the song is built around his “Pie” catchprase, so it's not like we're talking about a bastion of taste. WWE: The Music, Vol. 9: Voices R-Truth – What's Up https://www.discogs.com/master/1586338-Various-Voices-WWE-The-Music-Vol-9 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuxmBX5GisI&list=RDBuxmBX5GisI&start_radio=1 “What's Up” shows Truth's rapping has a marked improvement over his song “Rowdy” from Vol. 5. I would have sworn this was on his solo album, but it's not. This album was released in 2009, but Truth was rapping this song through most of his TNA career almost a decade earlier. NWA-TNA: The Music, Vol. 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qySZlrjNY44 3 Live Kru – 3 Live K “3 Live K” sees each of the members take a short verse. It isn't bad for what it is. With all 3 members having a history with performing music, this works fine. I do like that each member's style shows through. But the beat is kind of grating to me. This is a real “i like this, except...” song. Every time I start to appreciate one aspect, another overpowers it in a worse way. TNA: 3rd Degree Burns https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iu7n8JF90iA&list=RDIu7n8JF90iA&start_radio=1 6. Christy Hemme – Society Box (3:32) “Society Box” is pretty good. It has a heavy mood, almost gothic rock vibe going on. Everything feels dirty, which drives that alternative rock sound here. Christy's vocals drip right into the music, and I really enjoyed this.

i must not remember the Andrade situation. i thought he was just a malcontent.

so you're saying that you've never seen the crowds react to Hangman? at any point over the last 5+ years?
