100% the exact bump I was thinking of when I posted that

I'm a very casual NJPW guy, but Ibushi takes some pretty gross ones from what I've seen

I was thinking that too and was going to post the same thing, but then I also thought that I seem to remember WWE usually gimmicking the LCD side of the ring apron for those with some kind of padding? I feel like I saw that a couple times but I could be wrong

I just bought my first cameo ever from that dude Greg Proops from Whose Line Is It Anyway and he did a real good job. I recommend that guy.

Dude, hell yes. All of them slowly turn around... It doesn't come up very often because of all the obvious flaws and missteps of the Invasion, but thats legitimately one of my favorite things to ever air on Raw. It's the slow turn and like you said, boom- the lightbulb. I hesitate to use the word because of the way it's normally used now with regard to WWE, but for a young ECW fan, it was a great moment. They're not shy about a little nod to the past here or there (Tyson last night, for example) so I'm really, really hoping it goes down like that. Plus, it's only a handful of dudes as opposed to the whole ECW roster, so I don't think it would even come to mind for most people.

The brand is strong I was wondering that too. If anything, I think it might be a little foreshadowing (or, a red herring). Cody's the only other guy who drove in there in a black pickup, right? Maybe we get a Cody/FTR stable managed by Arn and Tully? I feel just awful saying it because I know Spears is busting his ass out there, but Tully is being kinda wasted on him. I guess he'd do OK with the group, but it does invite a lot of unflattering comparisons to your Paul Romas, Mark Jindraks, etc.

Damn, I guess I can start checking the box for "I have not watched Raw in: more than a year" on those WWE Fan Council surveys.

I mean, yes and no. The platforms are new, but the NEWZ~! is not.

His girlfriend works there!! What a steaming pile of a non-story.

That clown guy is such a dipshit. The only fans that matter are Vlad, 90s bowl cut kid, and the woman crying posted a few pages back. And the really tall person in the front row of WWE PPVs who wears like, Dio wizard shirts? They kept to themselves and did it the right way!! Everyone else immediately delete Twitter.

Great call. I don't know why but Ive always dug when guys have the company logo on their gear ever since I first saw TAKA with the WWF logo on his tights... on ECW TV, naturally

Ultimo Dragon gear, ranked: 1) Black 2) Pink 3) Mexican Flag 4) Blue 5) Green 6) Hologram

Loved that too. "It's... …different, is my point, Jim"

Some of those names I'll give you but NXT did exactly zero for Drew McEntyre.

Oney's such a great follow. Saw one from him this morning that was just I HOPE I GET IN A FIGHT TODAY

Right there with you Stefanie. I said it in the PPV thread, but Adam Page is an honest to God star. Its mind blowing to me. I remember seeing him on ROH TV on years ago and it's like it's not even the same guy. I know they keep teasing turning him but I think it would be a big mistake right now. And not only that, but it was only possible because of MSG/NYC and the rest of the northeast US. The ethnic champion stuff only works if you have the good fortune to run the territory where the ethnic people actually are.

Just rewatched the stampede because my girlfriend missed it last night, and man it's just such incredible fun. It's just straight up Wyle E Coyote and Roadrunner. Ortiz is just the greatest. And Adam Page is a fucking star, there I said it. Don't get me wrong, I was super pumped for Blood and Guts, but this kind of match was just what the doctor ordered right now.

I thought the whole point of the "Casino" ladder match is that you "hit the jackpot" of winning a title match without properly climbing the rankings. Like MITB, just that one time a year gimmick. That being said: Cage gave me the Benoit-jeebies a little with the facials on the ramp. It's a great look!

I'm not getting Hayes vibes either. Found an old reddit thread that says it's a session guy, so who knows. I DO think it's Hayes singing on Big Show's first theme though

Really? Was that Shawn's WWE book? I think I may have only read the other, later one where it's more about religion and things. I stand corrected then!

The Vol 2 version is freaking awesome. I was hoping they'd start using it at some point when he came back as commissioner in 99 and it just never happened. I think the Vince singing thing is an urban legend though

Not sure if this is the proper place for this: do any Americans here have experience streaming AEW PPVs on X-Box One? My laptop is being funny and I just wanna make sure I'm set up for tomorrow night. Thanks dudes.

Kanyon as Mortis Daniels as Curry Man and/or Suicide Not sure if these would fit your criteria since they were arguably at their height under the masks but you could make an argument for WWF repackagings like Kane, Mankind, maybe Goldust if you're counting makeup as a mask Repo Man!!

Flair just re-signed with WWE this afternoon: https://twitter.com/RicFlairNatrBoy/status/1263534203796361217?s=09

Seconding @Edwin on Strong/Riddle, I was in the building for that one and it may have been the best match on the card depending on your feelings about Gargano/Cole
