J.H. Posted May 1 Posted May 1 I was expecting him to be called "Just Kinda A Bad Dude" but that doesn't fit on a t-shirt easil5 James 1
AxB Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Rebel finally has her diagnosis, of what's causing her medical issues the last two years. It's not good news. 8
hammerva Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Started watching the Hogan documentary on Netflix. Most of the stuff we already knew. Episode 3 is maybe the funniest in terms of moments : 1. Talking about the steroids issue and them interviewing a couple little black kids in the crowd asking what does it mean about Hulk Hogan and one of them saying "HE GONNA DIE". i haven't had a laugh that good in a while 2. The peak of bitter Bret Hart talking about Hogan. I am sure everyone has seen the "fuck You" clip on Twitter . Also Bret calling himself Robert Dinero which is peak Bret thinking may more of himself than others 3. Hogan talking about his match against Yokozuna while the melodramatic "Take These Broken Wings" is in the background. Almost wished they showed Bret "Fuck You" line on a loop 2

Nice Guy Eddie Posted May 1 Posted May 1 If Austin is Denzel, I guess that makes New Jack Austin's best friend. 6
Teflon Turtle Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Years and years ago (probably under my old username before that catastrophic board hack, whenever that was), I wrote that I believed there to be similarities between latter-career Al Pacino and latter-career Ric Flair. What with all the suits, high-intensity shouting, and Pacino having a child at 83 with a woman roughly 50 years his junior, I like to think that comparison still has some merit. 2

Mel Gibson's latest wife he is no longer with was 25 or 26 when they got together and he was 60 at the time. I am guessing she got too old for him. Also, the Mel Gibson tapes were 16 years ago and like three wives/girlfriends ago. Goddamn.

Blockbuster would have had to ban me for not returning it. 2
Teflon Turtle Posted May 1 Posted May 1 "Oldest ride, longest line!" The comparison at the time was more to do with both Flair and Pacino becoming high volume, scenery-chewing self-parodies as their careers went on. Flair's a little different in the sense that he was living the gimmick the entire time. I don't know if Pacino does that, but apparently Space Mountain is still running if he's having a kid in his 80s...
Cobra Commander Posted May 1 Posted May 1 I don't think Ric Flair was enough of a pain in the ass for a Marlon Brando comp
zendragon Posted May 1 Posted May 1 I feel the proper comp for Isle of Dr. Moreau era Marlon Brando would be Adrian Adonis becoming adorable

I had recently been watching some episodes of 'The Soup' that were uploaded to Youtube from around this time period. And the Mel Gibson tapes were so much WORSE than I remember. But the part that got a HUGE laugh out of me was one of those infotainment shows (Hard Copy? Access Hollywood? ET? I can't remember) talking about Gibson selling his home and highlighting all the features like "The famous rose garden" then playing an audio clip of Gibson threatening to put his then-wife in said rose garden, as if that was a selling point for the sale of the place: "You mean this is THE rose garden where he threatened to bury his wife?! What a deal!" 4
Cobra Commander Posted May 1 Posted May 1 "imagine all the things you can do in this rose garden, like murder!" 1 2

The Natural Posted May 2 Posted May 2 (edited) https://www.wwe.com/superstars Bloody hell, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods on the WWE Alumni page. Thought they'd be lifers. --- JC Mateo is gone as well. The artist formerly known as Jeff Cobb. Edited May 2 by The Natural 1
Cobra Commander Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Marty Wright’s Boogeyman gimmick will haunt anybody suggesting Kofi/Xavier vs the Hurt Syndicate in AEW Without knowing how good Kofi has looked lately, he can do things other than just run through the other AEW teams, right? He would pare decently well with the top AEW singles guys. Unless you’re an AEW ultra who really hates certain ex-WWE guys and wants to job Kofi for 4 months to make sure he has the “right attitude” or whatever Just thinking that two of the better known recent WWE guys could be good pickups. Also because you can just use the names Kofi and Creed without being sued for violating a copyright (unless Kofi signed away his literal first name) 1
Teflon Turtle Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Somebody on Reddit raised the point that it was probably pretty smart of Woods to build up UUDD the way he did and use the Austin Creed name there instead of just going by Xavier Woods on the channel. Assuming no WWE nonsense in copyrighting Austin Creed, there's a ton of people who already have an awareness of that name for any future ventures. Anyway, New Day vs. Young Bucks happening 9-10 years too late and without Big E around at all is gonna feel bittersweet. 2
