OSJ Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Happy Day of the Dead! Let us begin our November discourse by looking at how some things changed over the last few months... Baron Corbin has become an Internet darling basically by doing the same stuff, just more of it. Asuka is the brightest light in womens' wrestling in the US, ever! She's technically as sound as Akira Hokuto and a million times better connecting with the fans. Have the Daniel Bryan fanboys finally given up? Is it time for Roman Reigns to be the Champ? Yeah, probably so... Although there's that Kane fella in the picture... Whatcha got?
SirSmUgly Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 I feel like since it's Dia de los Muertes, someone should have started the thread with an appropriate lucha video. Not me, because I'll fuck it up and post something that doesn't capture the spirit (ha!) of the day, but you know, someone who knows lucha.
Tromatagon Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Grave Consequences. Lucha Underground. On the way to day of the Dead festivities so I can't post it but its impossible to do better than that.

Peck Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 http://www.wwe.com/inside/jerry-lawler-car-accident Guy is like Michael Myers. No matter how much people want him to go away he keeps coming back. (In all seriousness, I'm glad they weren't seriously hurt.)
Tromatagon Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 This is what happens when you let your 13 year old girlfriend drive 10
nate Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Heard Lawler's girlfriend would have been okay if he had put her seat in facing the rear, not the front, of the car. 9
Bustronaut Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 I got y Troma. A lot of this is shot like a video game, and it was kind of doing my head in. 1
OSJ Posted November 1, 2015 Author Posted November 1, 2015 Since I suck at uploading videos, Troma and Raziel are my heroes! Good call and well done!
Ramsey Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Billings... Billing fucking Montana WWE goes to Billings Montana AND Casper fucking Wyoming Not Idaho though. NOOOOOOOO! FUCK IDAHO! Wrestling hates Idaho
SirSmUgly Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 If you're gonna live in Idaho, you might as well just live in Spokane at this point, brah.
Infinit Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Is there much footage out there of NWA cards from Maple Leaf Gardens?
Ramsey Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 If you're gonna live in Idaho, you might as well just live in Spokane at this point, brah. That's the plan at some point. It'll be a decade...
mattdangerously Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Baron Corbin has become an Internet darling basically by doing the same stuff, just more of it. I think you're oversimplifying things. Corbin is getting over because he's showing that he's capable of growing as a wrestler. He's putting in good work in longer matches (the Rhyno matches, the Joe matches, the Dusty Classic), and his anti-indy heel character is far more interesting than the bored babyface thing he was doing earlier.
odessasteps Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Is there much footage out there of NWA cards from Maple Leaf Gardens? Not a lot at least on YouTube. I looked for stuff last time i did the podcast with Marek but only found a handful of matches.
cool arrow Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 There's a certain website we're probably not supposed to discuss that starts with X and ends with classics that has a lot of Toronto stuff.

I looked for stuff last time i did the podcast with Marek but only found a handful of matches. I came cross Dory vs Abdullah from MLG the other day, and it was so weird seeing the NWA ring apron and the entrance ramp after basically only ever seeing WWF stuff at the Gardens. Would be cool if more found its way onto YouTube.
Patrick B. Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Pretty sure Jerry Lawler will outlive us all.
mattdangerously Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 For at least as long as 20 year-old women still have daddy issues. 3
Matt D Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 This isn't the best thread for this since it's more of a fixed thing and this is transitory but fine-upstanding PWO poster Elliott, for his 31st birthday, has set up a Satanico playlist that's going to go all night and people are currently watching it over at this link: http://taima.tv/r/happybirthday It's a fun little set up. And a good place for people who have had a hard time getting into lucha since watching it digitally with others help. Im here for another hour or two, is the plan, because Satanico's the best. Stop on by. 2
