……and T-Bolt’s live speech was the car crash we all anticipated.

Thanks I completely omitted that from my memories. Makes sense.

I don’t remember Bull Nakano being a member of the Orient Express.

We’re booking heels getting heat…I’m here for it.

The occasional profanity only works when everyone else is not doing it…that’s why when Bret flipped his lid it’s still remembered word for word 27 years later.

The Rock. Cody. Color. Beat down in the rain. Yes…all of it.

That walleyed motherfucker was looking at Lars in Hawaii and talking about Ole in Atlanta.

reading the Wikipedia entry about the 2005 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory:
instead of Oompa Loompa songs, the Rock would cut promos on the kids after they fall into chocolate rivers, or turn into blueberries, or fall into a garbage disposal, or get shrunk by a teleportation device
(yes I know it wouldn't have worked like that)
Oompa Loompa Streudleedoo

I was at the Dallas RAW the night after No Way Out in Feb 1998. The dark match had Earthquake return to a HUGE pop. Apparently it was a tryout. He came back later that year as Golga. In retrospect, I can see the logic of putting him in a mask…poor John aged badly in a short time frame by then. He looked old, even though he was still relatively young.

He moved back to Bulgaria? That’s a heck of a commute. No wonder he hasn’t been booked in AEW.

I heard a story once that Bundy was (1985 adjusted term) a last minute switch for the Mania 2 main event and it was originally supposed to be Hogan vs. Bruiser Brody.
Any truth to that?
No that’s internet urban legend. Brody wasn’t ever close to coming in during that time period. The WM2 main event would have been either Bundy or Savage against Hogan. Thankfully they held off on Macho Man as it gave us the much better MegaPowers Explode!

I cannot support putting Mike Rotunda into any hall of fame. I would support him inducting his son, but I spent too many hours of my childhood watching him do shitty chinlocks and abdominal stretches on Superstars every week to let this travesty slide. I'm about 76% joking, but he's perhaps my least favorite wrestler of all time.
The only version of Rotunda that was worth a damn was Captain Mike from the Varsity Club in 1988-1989. Anything else is a hard pass.

Seth Rollins talking about the Rock not being cool was certainly a choice. Then there was Diarrhea Dwayne.
Rollins will get eaten alive in person and I’m here for it.

Who would Terry have played?
One of Curly Bill’s posse, mean mugging, spitting tobacco. I’m sure he’d call Doc a sick jackass. I don’t know if the audience could handle a flaming branding iron at the film’s climax, though.

That is such a bizarre analogy that can possibly only fit in wrestling (you deliver a chase in an angle but never a blowoff). Or politics.
I like Ricky Morton’s even better…”Ole would be mad eating ice cream.”

On the flip side, we can fantasy book Terry into movies from 1984 onward.
Terry Funk in Unforgiven. Terry Funk in Con Air. Etc etc
The movie Tombstone would have been even more awesome than it already is…

Also, Rob Feinstein once walked directly into an undercover sting and he once walked directly into having to deal with interviewing Ole. Feinstein is a shitty interviewer. So pairing him with a guy who has no tolerance for crap was an amazing duo.
“Quit being so damn DUMB.”

how many of those made tape?
I want to say a couple surfaced in the 18 volume Cornette dumpster archive that covered 1977-1979 Crockett house show footage.

What a gross underbelly…just gross.

I remember his flub walking to the back, looks right in the camera and exclaims, “And THAT’S how you take care of Ernest FUCKING Miller!” Immediately realizes his swearing and cringes all in one motion.

Man the technique of holding the mic and yelling into one side of it is an amazing touch here
She was great! That’s the Mae Young I wished we had in the WWF instead of the perverted granny tandem with Moolah.

Holy crap, the young Russian Nightmare looks exactly like one of Griselda Blanco’s hitmen in the Cocaine Cowboys doc.
