    two bits of potential interest that i haven't seen mentioned here: unreleased NES game prototype uncovered. Never released, never promoted, never announced. More news Sunday. https://gamerant.com/microsoft-sega-big-announcement/ Microsoft and Sega planning a big announcement in June: most populous rumors i've seen: M$ buys Sega; Dreamcast Mini release; Sega launches new console

    agreed on Couture's win over Timmeh. also on Miesha Tate capturing the WBW title from Holm. Bigfoot Silva KOing Overeem. my buddy is a huge Overeem fan and talked all kinds of shit about Bigfoot leading up to and during the fight. that comeback knockout left him speechless. Rampage Jackson knocking out Chuck Liddell to win the UFC LHW title. i was watching in a bar. seems like everyone was there to "see Chuck knock this bum out". when i mentioned they previously fought in Pride, my input was dismissed. Got a couple free drinks cuz the bartender appreciated my knowledge. Nate Diaz triangle choking Kurt Pelligrino. no personal connection here, but when Diaz flexed and flipped Kurt off it was fantastic and i loved it Shinya Aoki getting brutally KO'd with a knee on a Dynamite card, seconds into the 2nd round. Aoki's tactics in the first round (stand fighting only rules) were dispicable, flopping everywhere, throwing dropkicks, and otherwise refusing to engage. the 2nd round (mma rules) made up for all that real quick.

    i hope Moxley's next feud isn't with somebody that made their name in WWE. He's only had four high profile matches, they've all been "main events", and three of them are with WWE alum. i don't know if Mox/MJF is the answer, but let's see some homegrown/indie opponents. Full Gear - Kenny Omega Revolution - Chris Jericho Dynamite Empty Arena match - Jake Hager Double or Nothing - Brodie Lee

    main event delivered SO MUCH.

    i have 2 UFC shirts. 1 (black v-neck T) i got for free from Buffalo Wild Wings. The other (also a black T) i had made. the front has the old UFC Ultiman logo and the back has a bunch of MMA promotion logos on it. Let me see if i can dig out those pics. Front: back:

    re: Carnyland. yeah, it was fine. a collection of short skits and promos for upcoming YouTube podcast-style shows. Nick Aldis' story was my favorite. Question Mark is one of my highlights of NWA Power, but this "history of Mongrovia" seems like a waste of time. i probably won't be checking this out every week. Somebody @ me if something really cool or noteworthy happens.

    ??? not sure if i'm crying from laughing so hard at your idea of it getting better, or weeping at the fact that this Ric storyline IS STILL FUCKING GOING ON. the Nightwing series was very, very average until he got shot in the head, at which point the storylines grinded to a halt and have been utterly terrible since.

    excellent card so far! Casey finally breaking her close decision streak. hope she can keep that up. Elkins/Landwehr brings the blood! Rivera jumping that sweep/low kick and punching Giga in the face was some movie shit. i have never seen that in a fight! i missed the Hernandez/Holland fight. caught bits on replay and it looked good.

    i loved it the first time i saw it, and ranked it up with a great showing for both men. As time went on, and revisiting it, i realize that i was sadly mistaken. The match is OK, nothing terrible but nothing grand. I would agree that it is the lesser of all WWE hourlong matches.

    i just hope when they do the first Fight Island card, they go all out. i want the octagon directly on the beach. or somewhere that's reminiscent of the first Jungle Fights card. or something equally ambitious/insane. memorable and crazy. live up to the hype!

    Smith after rd 4: "my teeth are falling out" his corner: "fundamentals!" come on, cornermen!

    Andrei is one of my favorite fighters. i will watch any card he's on. but at this point, please hang 'em up. he's looked thoroughly mediocre (and deteriorating) for years now.

    can someone identify Sarah Moras' entrance theme? vocals sound familiar but i can't place it.....

    an utterly ridiculous read. ridiculous not because it's ill-informed or not well written, but because it's criminal that this guy could get away with the same scam for DECADES. also, i did not realize that McManus also promoted the Impact MMA event from 2009.

    so, with all the talk about Herb Abrams, and the airing of an episode about him on "Dark Side of the Ring", it inspired me to watch some of his UWF. I'm going in completely blind, as i haven't seen anything else he promoted and i'm not aware of any of the matches or even who's involved. Here, spoilered for length, are my thoughts on Blackjack Brawl (#1). TL;DR: This show is a mess.

    AoA is my all time favorite comics story. i was like 12 and not really into comics, per se, but i loved superheroes and the Batman/X-Men/Spider-Man cartoons. so we walked into a comics shop while we were looking into this little row of boutiques on Main Street, and BAM! there was a trading card/checklist of the crossover. it was AoA Wolverine, with his one hand and looking all wild. that's all it took, and i was hooked. still own that card to this day.

    empty arena wrestling i find very little enjoyment in. empty arena UFC i don't mind whatsoever.

    well fuck. now it's even MORE unlikely that we see 2001 xfl on the network.

    maybe a few more pickles and a couple less beers before you post next?

    i rewatched that era just a couple years ago. there was a significant improvement when Booker T becomes champ. there's still plenty that's awful, but the whole vibe is just a lot better.

    re: Janela, he was one of the first "no name indie" guys that i was curious about and interested to see. well, 6 months in, and what we've seen has been very mediocre and forgettable. i think it's due to physique, lack of identifiable character, lack of psychology, and sloppy ringwork. i know that all sounds like a giant insult, but ALL of those things are able to be improved and/or learned. i sincerely hope Joey can find a way to make some much needed adjustments, because there's a good character in there and i would love to see what the end result is.

    can somebody let the Maryland State Athletic Commission that their match was Unsanctioned. therefore, AEW can't be held responsible for what happened. It's like they didn't watch the show at all.....

    i hope that Vince is shopping WWE around but insists on Steph keeping her role, Dixie Carter style.
  24. twiztor
    i second all of these. the two Adam West movies (Return of the Caped Crusaders, Batman vs Two-Face) are both excellent. As is Batman vs TMNT.

    had to Google him. looks like a good start. Now we just need a bowling mummy
