  1. Vince (and ergo creative) is horribly out of touch with modern culture?
  2. WWE actually has plugged an ROH show before, back when Matt Hardy first wrestled for them.
  3. Because he was not. He was never once called a slave. They even did an angle where he tried to buy a slave and he stressed it was the one thing he did not possess. Virgil was a paid employee. His primary job was to protect Dibiase. As time went on, Dibiase became more abusive and Virgil turned on him.FYI: A lot of bodyguards tend to wear ties.Ex. Meng in the Stud Stable.
  4. So while everyone else is talking about how the article mentions so and so and has pics from ROH, I get to this line, "It has been roughly two-years since his face was clean-shaven; throw him in a suit and you don’t get Tom Brady so much as the Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer," and immediately think "Hey, Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer didn't have a beard! If anything his oversized brow and nose are straight up HHH."
  5. Yeah, I'm sensing disingenuous face tendencies from Trollple H. He only stopped the Sheild match after they beat up their top contenders (and Kofi, because, why not?) and when they were about to lose as well. I wouldn't be shocked if he set up RVD to be jumped by Del Rio, and putting Ryder and Gabriel against the Wyatts hardly seems like a face move. It's like, "oh, you want a match, fine....AGAINST KAAAAAAAANE!" Also, this is now the second time HHH has used the Wyatts against a foe. I feel like this is less they're aligned with him, and more he's just using them, which will soon lead to Bray calling him out about it and lecturing him on how you can't control a force of nature/evil/chaos (or maybe a "you play with fire, you get burnt"). Granted, it wouldn't have made any sense, but imagine the pop if the Wyatt Family made the save instead of the WCW job squad on Monday.
  6. Are you kidding me? I want Road Dogg and Billy Bad Ass to be the new Stooges.
  7. Zeb was tweeting in support of Dusty tonight, for what it is worth.
  8. It's photoshopped. You gotta keep it real on the Jibber Jabber thread.
  9. I wonder what percentage of off-screen beat downs end up leading to a turn. It has to be pretty high, right?
  10. I can see Beck Bennett doing Weekend Update.
  11. Walt has been so lucky for so long that it almost wouldn't surprise me if, right after it seems like he is going to get away with everything, it dies due to some fluke or something he doesn't see coming.
  12. "It's Stephanie McMahon's belt, she just lets you hold it."
  13. It's the start of a Chikara invasion of WWE!I just hope this invasion won't require us to travel to Canada to retrieve a secret VHS tape in order to understand what the hell's going on.Nah, just download my 142-page PDF.You joke, but we all know this appearance is being added to the PDF.Also, watch Peck during his appearance. He will be blinking. That is Morse code! Decipher it, and you will find a street address. Go there, find the homeless man at the corner, and give him some change. Come back a little over half an hour later, and he will ask you for change. Calmly tell him "I did it thirty-five minutes ago," and you'll get the next piece of the puzzle: a Green Ant sticker. Congrats, you're in the Chikarmy now.
  14. I've long maintained the problem with the brand split initially wasn't a lack of depth, it was a lack of long-term planning. If it was a month where Raw had a PPV, Smackdown was in a holding pattern until the next month, instead of building up the next month's angles for PPV. Also, they've got lots of guys they're not using now that aren't really in NXT, and feuds over the secondary (tertiary?) titles are almost non-existent, while feuds between mid-carders not involved in the barely existent title feuds don't happen. They could make it work if they wanted to.
  15. He did wonders for Sheamus. That was a great series of matches.
  16. I saw that match shortly after discovering the NWA/WCW and I remember thinking, "Holy shit, Bobby Eaton is a badass."
  17. That may be the least shocking twitter handle ever.
  18. *insert missile dropkick reference here*
  19. They'll probably give him some goofy new name like CM Punk too. That WWE, always holding down the NXT guys...
  20. So maybe we should first define what you mean by "best." The Rock is the clear cut most successful. As far as the actual craft is concerned, as in the bell-to-bell, that's kind of subjective.It's totally subjective. When I say best I never ever want an objective answer. What a horribly dry and boring conversation that would be. If I asked who was the most successful wrestler ever(of any race or gender), we'd be bogged down in gate attendances and pay-per-view buyrates and inflation conversions and by the time we finally decide it's Hulk Hogan or Steve Austin or Rock no one cares because they always knew it was one of those three."Best" should be defined as whoever ought to win a Samoan Madness tournament run by you.Yeah, jae complains about March Madness, yet he posts a random question like that six months away from it? Someone is jonesin' for a fix.
  21. I don't think the problem is that they're doing a slow build, but that it is so repetitive. Three weeks of the whole roster forced to watch Bryan get beat down while Big Show threatens to do something but backs down.
