As long as he's an accomplished worker and not some choke artist ...I suck as a human being.

Say what you want about Chikara, but if you're a big dude there you HAVE to work as a base since 95% of the roster is comprised of smaller dudes in alien costumes who can flip. Cesaro's an amazing base, too. New sig, when I get home.

Why do we have to imagine ECW still being in business? There are still plenty of smarks out there. Witness the day after Mania. There are admittedly fewer "holy shit" chants. Also, fewer "you fucked up" chants. Not as many "she's a crack whore" chants either. I only mentioned ECW for that context, because I imagine that, if ECW were around, that element of wrestling fandom would be more prevalent than it is now. Wonder how ECW fans then would have treated, say, Darren Young? "This is awesome?"

Imagine ECW were still in business today ... Imagine the Benoit tragedies still occurred ... Imagine the "smart mark" chants that would follow David Benoit well into the rest of his pro wrestling career ... Imagine that you can hate markdom more than you think you do now ...

I am in awe. Not sure exactly why.

Mark Angelosetti deserves a shot at the bigs.

Is Marge Schott's dog running backwards ... is that what I'm looking at here, whilst making a pithy comment about an avatar as well?

Why not? Abyss probably has a stuffed Goldylocks, with a runny nose.

Williams/Bentley/Sabin from Bound for Glory Whenever was decent until the X fell into Williams' hands.

Surprised that Taker/'kind isn't higher, with the fact it's on every WWE DVD ever manufactured, ever, even - and I believe this, it was published in a journal somewhere - as an easter egg on WWE theatrical and DTV films.

"I consider myself a hybrid ..." A hybrid ... dolphin?

"Shoot shat," HAW!

It's like those networks that seem to run incessant James Bond marathons.

^ ... dammit too slow ...

I love how any discussion of the film "Troll 2" I've prob ever read, in which the town is mentioned immediately recommends the reader read it backwards. Like the town's official name is "Nilbog Read It Backwards" on the US Census form.

Pet peeve of movie posters: when the actors names do not match their position on the poster.Totally and completely with you on this; I mean, that shit doesn't even make sense, in any fucking capacity!

"FEED ME MORE!"

Jesus. I hadn't seen a lot of pics of Dixie Carter since ... let's see, last time I regularly watched TNA was when the TNA ECW Reunion thing was happening ... she didn't look entirely gross. In that video, she looks like "8 mos later" on the "Faces of Meth" poster.

That could be the announcement that nails the moment, actually.

All the dumb shit that TNA has had in front of them that they did, when conventional wisdom of even the mark side of wrestling would have dictated that they do otherwise ... from Monty Brown never being crowned TNA champ, to copious amounts of Jeff Jarrett's World Title ode to Lawler in Memphis, to James Storm losing when he was at his peak and SHOULD have won the TNA championship. Maybe we're finally hitting a point where fans of wrestling are rebelling against a company that refuses to give them what they want to see*. TNA threw fans a bone with the beauty of how they worked Aries into his title reign, but then it's gone all downhill since. *I wonder if Vince McMahon just now perked his head up, at a disturbance in the force ...

I could totally see a situation where Angle sent a feeler out to WWE, knowing that TNA is on life support. WWE tells him, "We'll hire you back IF you shoot decline their HOF induction." So he did, and the H's runs into Vince's office this morning and sez, "Vince, that joke I played on Angle ... it fucking worked!" And they laugh their assess off for a little while, "Bwa-HAHAHAHAHAHAHaHaHaHahahahaha ... hahaha ... ha ha ... heh ... heh heh ... ahem, whew ... yeah, we're never hiring him back."

Is it really the "possible last ppv ever?"

I had a session when I worked in a prison where the client said "nahm'sayin" more times than he ever used anything resembling a subject and verb.

Hennig is easily an all time fave for me.

Arn would have to wear his killer hat though. Nothing says badass like wearing a formal hat while giving a promo in trunks. Also, I want someone to resurrect Ole's "Damn I'm good" shirt. They already have that shirt 1/3 done, thanks to Ron Simmons ... although, for the full credit, the letters would have to be made of ironed on felt.
