If he's just confusing Princess Diana with Diana Hart-Smith, then that did actually happen, sort of, at SummerSlam'92. Piper, like Hogan, has the tendency to take something that actually happened and blow it out of proportion to a ridiculous degree. Maybe it's the ridiculous amount of blow they both did over the years? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultimo Necro Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 I always imagined a Vince movie would be exactly like the movie playing in Biff’s casino in Back to the Future 2. Come to think of it, it’s exactly how I imagine Titan Towers to be. “I thought I sent you to boarding school ya punk kid” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show, King, and Tony are funnier than Taz and Excalibur. If there's anyone you want busting your balls then it should be Tony Schiavone.

Craig H Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Fightful is saying that Kross was supposed to lose to Jeff Hardy again, but plans changed when Hardy got covid. Like, there's probably better than a coin flip's chance that is bullshit, but if that's true, that's just hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneWolf&Subs Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 I buy it. Its fucking hilarious the creative is still stuck in that “working the sheets” mindset. Yeah I don’t think competition will improve them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Let's assume for a moment that is true. Is it to send a message to NXT that guys who look like Kross are unacceptable and they need more model looking dudes? Kross didn't shake someone's hand backstage? I can't believe it would be because Kross sucks because there have been plenty of guys on the Raw or SD roster who have sucked more and received bigger pushes. It's also funny that Kross took on Lee and it's like they have these two guys they don't want to do shit with, but one has to win. And someone mentioned that maybe Lee will turn heel. Admittedly, my knowledge of Lee on the indies doesn't go back that far, but has he worked as a heel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofuture Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) Fandango on the Such Good Shoot Podcast gave his perspective on Kross: "It’s the art of the no sell back there. You know, you can’t put shit over. You can’t go on Twitter and sell [issues]. 37-year-old me knows that now but 26-year-old me didn’t at the time. some of those things you have to learn the hard way. Look at Raw last night, they’re probably just testing Kross because they want him to be a big star and they want to see how he plays ball, you know? So yeah, but a guy like that will be fine, man, as long you just can’t sell it. It’s hard. It’s hard when you care so much. You know, it’s hard not to so it’s almost like that fine line of caring but not caring. Like, how are you supposed to act? Like, are you supposed to care about what you’re doing or whatever? Yeah, it’s a weird juggling act that a lot of people don’t figure out. There are five guys and a few girls that they’re going to use prominently on top all year round and then the rest of everybody else is just kind of pissed off about their situation. That’s just the way it is. So yeah, once you come to terms with that, and you know your role, and you know what you got to do, and as long as you can control your attitude, your gear, and your body. As long as you can take care of those, you know, just don’t sell shit. That’s what I tell guys. Just do your job, man."

Dog Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Are they also "testing" NXT, to see how it reacts? They actually have big plans for it? I don't think you can write ratings into the script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't last long but they were awesome but they were "technically" heels (Because you tend to get as much cheers in modern-ish ROH as a heel as you do as a face, unless you're particularly at odds with the crowd (see Hardy, Matt and/or Taven, Matt) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakk_Sabbath Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 We have required vaccinations to attend schools here in the US for hundreds of years. My new vet wouldn't even touch my cats without proof of rabies shots. Now we might miss Dynamite in a packed stadium because Jethro suddenly believes in his body, his choice? I'm so fucking fed up with all of this. TK himself can check my vax card at the door for all I care. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eoae Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Hopefully, whatever builds a civilization on the planet after we’re gone is a little smarter. I feel bad for younger people because I have zero hope for the future, right now. I’m nearly 50, so I I guess I had my time and and I made a fair bit of it. Not a lot of regrets. Not sure how I feel about having four kids right now. They probably have shit futures to look forward to. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
