Thinking about streaming a 100 man, Monday Night War Royal Rumble with Fire Pro.

Have never streamed before, and don't really know anything about it. Dunno how good the stream would be given my computer is pretty basic. Not even a gaming laptop, though it is good enough to play some relatively graphic intensive games like Street Fighter x Tekken and Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Haven't tried newer games but they probably don't run well, if at all.

That was awesome, shitty commentary though. Funny how you think of old wrestling as slow and methodical but it seems like this match is based more off high spots and they move faster than guys in PWG. Those slams looked tough as hell too, strong hard ring obviously. Those pildedrivers looked so legit.

Bad News Gertner 05-24-2018 08:39 AM
Some of the stuff from that era is actually pretty good. It holds up better than alot of 70's WWWF

I listened to this last night and didn't catch that. Thanks, Gerty. I've been meaning to submit a question for a while now, but I just don't know what I want to know about Doug Basham.

I disagree with this. He usually covers it and then segues into more, or at least comes back to it. And that's half the fun.

Mr. Nerfect 05-24-2018 09:39 AM
Actually, an amendment to that: there is one that I just remembered that did frustrate me, because I really wanted to know the answer, but Corny actually did kind of back away from this one.

It was about The Undertaker and why he is so respected. By the time you get to 1998, he's embedded in the company as this locker-room leader and presence that everybody already spoke about like he was a legend. But that's only 7 years with the company. Kofi Kingston is in year 11. Dolph Ziggler poked his head up there first in 2005 -- 13 years ago. The Miz in 2004 -- 14 years ago.

Anyway, Corny's answer was basically "Because he's the fucking Undertaker," which I found to be a really inspecific and weird deflection of the question. But actually, I suppose that does speak to the presence the guy probably carries himself with, which is why people probably treat him differently to, say, Erick Rowan, who is already over half-way to that tenure too.

Ol Dirty Dastard 05-24-2018 09:49 AM
lol

I'm not saying it's a bad thing that he does that. People usually ask him specific questions that few would have the answer for. It usually leads to a history lesson and even an understanding of how to market and run ANY business, not just the wrestling business.

Yeah, I think that actually kinda answers the question. It has less to do with tenure and more to do with the fact that... he's the fucking Undertaker. He comes off like a guy who commands respect. Most of the guys today, including the ones you mentioned, come off like guys who command video game tournaments before the show.

Not surprising! '70S WWWF didn't seem to be heavy on classic matches.

None of those guys come close to being the attraction Taker is.

Yeah Mean Mark just be like "YOU WILL RESPECT ME" and comes down with the old school off the top rope if anyone questions otherwise.

Like try telling that guy he's not a draw. See how it goes.

WWE's T-shirts have never really been the best when it comes to designs but I really have noticed a sharp decline in the quality of their designs these past few years.

Maybe Big E should use it when he starts his singles run.

It'll be much better than "The Big Ending" anyway.

According to the Observer, WWE found a new target to go after and be the basis for another signing spree. This time its Major League Wrestling and all due to them getting a tv deal recently.

They’ll still get word indirectly to tell people not to renew their deals like they did with ROH (and there were guys in ROH based on promises made and such while under contract that one would think was tampering, and that’s what led to the legal situation last year where WWE had to pull all offers from ROH talent and waited months after their contracts expired before approaching them again, although in the end the guys like Kyle O’Reilly, Adam Cole and Bobby Fish all came. The MLW deals signed with its key talent were for multiple years. A key may have been MJF signing with MLW

Not sure on exclusive guys but just seems WWE got really petty because MLW beat them to signing MJF to a deal.

In terms of commentary team, they do have Tony Schiavone in the booth.

Seen very little of MJF but his resemblance to EC3 is crazy.

Ol Dirty Dastard 05-24-2018 10:23 PM
I heard Tony was very good for MLW.

He has to go back and listen to his old WCW shit for his podcast with Conrad and I get the idea he uses it to sharpen up his toolkit. Plus, he was actually a fantastic commentator before 1998.

Sounds pretty much the same as he did in WCW I think. Actually pretty cool hearing him call wrestling again.
