  1. Steve Corino doesn't have near as much name value in Tennessee as Jerry Lawler does. EDIT: I see what you meant by that now. The re-sale charge is going to fuck him, though. Even on your first offense, with that charge, you're looking at no less than 5 years, and up to 30. Depending on what the drug is. If he had an ounce of marijuana on him, that's considered intent to distribute, but Tennessee classifies marijuana in a lower controlled substance category than some other states do (surprisingly).
  2. I can't wait until Kanye fires back at J. Cole eventually for his sneak diss on False Prophets. Fuck J. Cole
  3. in Donald Trump's mind, the only "biggest country on Earth" is America.
  4. The CW probably loved the crossover week too, every show hit ratings high and Arrow in particular had a 120% increase (which sounds insane but weren't their ratings falling to begin with?). I'm perfectly fine with more crossovers - I'm still waiting for Crisis. Wasn't there talk of putting another show on Friday? I can't remember what it was, but it intrigued me that The CW would have a show for every day of the week, but then the news came out that Legends was moving to Tuesdays after The Flash.
  5. MOTHERFUCKER. 2 weeks after I get an Xbox One and WWE 2K17 for (after taxes) a little over $300. Ugh.
  6. Yeah, but we live inside the world of kayfabe. Where the notion of using a sledgehammer and not killing the other guy is treated as believable. Goldberg doesn't have extremely limited qualifications, he went on a 100 something win streak in WCW, destroying guys in ways that would make Suplex City look like Candyland. Yeah, okay, maybe Brock Lesnar the character we see on television did take a sabbatical (after being beat by Goldberg in his last match in 2004) and trained to be an MMA competitor and he knows ju-jitsu and whatnot. Does any of that matter? No, because wrestling is fake and we still live in a world of fantasy, where the most feared guy on the roster is an undead zombie and there's grown men on RAW that love unicorns and Dragonball Z and are still taken seriously. What qualifcations did CM Punk have to be on Brock Lesnar's level and have a competitive match? Triple H? JOHN CENA? What, because these guys are/were currently active in wrestling and Goldberg hasn't been seen since 2004 so of course he's just been eating cake and watching re-runs of "2 Broke Girls"? Come on. This is getting a little ridiculous.
  7. And the running line from Meltzer seems to be that "Goldberg will keep wrestling as long as Vince pays him what he got at Survivor Series". Honestly, I'm okay with these guys not having "passion" for wrestling. This shit is rough and ultimately, it's business. Get your money and get out, it's the smartest way to do it.
  8. the Cyber Monday deals for video games on Amazon have been the same ones on sale since Thanksgiving day. Unless I'm doing it wrong, it's just a bunch of headsets, controllers, console stands, and maybe 4-5 games.
  9. The WrestleMania pre-show is like, 2 1/2 hours long. You could easily have 3 title matches during that time. For sure though, some titles won't get defended at WrestleMania because it's just not a priority. I see the Cruiserweight title being defended at the Takeover show the night before, personally.
  10. So, what's up with this? Twitter is speculating about a union.
  11. Unpopular opinion: Is anyone else kind of over the "british invasion" of sorts of talent like Sabre Jr, Ospreay, Scrull, etc? I mean, yeah, it's great that talent from the UK is getting international exposure, but I watch their matches and... ugh. I can't get into it. I try to watch WCPW or ICW or PROGRESS and it's just so bad. It seems really low-rent. I'm probably the only one that feels this way, but it's something I've felt for awhile and it came to a head during the Cruiserweight Classic with Sabre Jr. and now it's getting worse with ROH and PWG.
  12. After watching Brian Pillman's ECW debut on the Network... I really want that white Four Horsemen shirt he was rockin'.
  13. It's been a grand total of one day since that fight was even announced. And I don't like the interm title shit either, but then I stop and remember it's a glorified term for "#1 contender" and I go about my day. I could do without the #1 contender having his own belt, but UFC gonna UFC. I wish they'd drop that title and just go with what it actually means, but alas. In my mind, if you think about it that way, Jose Aldo was the #1 contender, the actual champion vacated the belt and went to a different weight class. In that regard, it makes sense. The #1 guy in the division, after beating the #2 guy, shouldn't have to go and face the #3 or #4 ranked guy just to be the "official" champion. He was ranked underneath McGregor, and now he's gone, so Also is by default the top guy in the division. Before Oliveria, Pettis hadn't won a match since, what, 2014? That's the real head-scratcher here, for me. He might have had a 5 fight win streak before dropping 3 in a row before his most recent win, but I don't know why that puts him on the rankings as #4. It really should be Edgar/Holloway for the #1 contendership, but I don't want to sit through another Edgar/Aldo match if it was to happen. Just some musings from a casual fan. Probably don't make much sense, but yeah.
  14. Yeah, right at the bottom of that article TheVileOne posted is this: http://mmajunkie.com/2016/11/tim-kennedy-gets-recently-suspended-kelvin-gastelum-at-ufc-206-pending-commission-approval
  15. Speaking of GFW, it's supposedly day 400 of Magnus' reign as their Heavyweight champion. And the Bollywood Boyz. and Christina Von Eerie.
  16. If we're talking serious promos, this has to be Rock's shining moment early on. I liked his "Get the F Out" promo too, after Austin walked-out.
  17. Fallout 4 -$19.80 Star Wars Battlefront - $15 (Ultimate is same price as on Amazon, Deluxe edition is $20) Batman: Arkham Knight Premium Edition - $16 UFC 2 Deluxe Edition - $24 Skyrim Special Edition is only $30, but I'm only price matching with Amazon (and they only have Used or Digital Code) because I have Thanksgiving stuff today too and fuck Black Friday in-person shopping.
  18. Is it worth getting games through the Xbox marketplace? They've got some good Black Friday deals (to me, anyway).
