They love putting Foley out there to debut ugly as fuck titles. Cause he is ugly?

That is the kind of shit I want to see on Raw.

Ricochet vs a fucking lion

book it

Totally misunderstood. Even with the clarification, my answer still stands. Vincent Ron/Don Harris. And yes, the middle name includes the slash.

Legit wonder how it would have fared against Mark Henry?

Killian Dane and Aichner as well.

During the early to mid 90s WWF payoffs were the shits for most of the roster. Houses were pathetic and money was way down. At television tapings they would cut off two-thirds of the building in order to have a "full looking" one third of a building for television broadcast. On house show loops, the office made available a certain amount of cash for each wrestler should he or she need it for road expenses. This payment was called a "Draw". Each night the road agent would ask each wrestler if they wanted to take their "Draw" for the night. In all honesty, I almost always took my draw just for money to spend at the bar. At one point in my illustrious career I realized that the office was getting over on me for certain towns and buildings. I developed the ability to judge a house's attendance and ascertain my likely payoff. On many house shows, as opening to mid-card match, there were MANY nights where my payoff was less that $200. Yes in the World Wrestling Federation, The Revolutionary Force in Sports Entertainment. I also learned quickly that Vince McMahon did not have the balls to send me a negative invoice for a tour. There were tours where I knew to take my $200 draw because my check would be less. So I guess you could say, in some small way, I got over on Vince McMahon. Oh and for the record, the smallest check I ever got from the WWF was a payoff for a small Canadian tour for a whopping $1.99 (yes in Canadian). Not every broke former wrestler squandered away millions of dollars. Some of us didn't make SHIT. So you are welcome current WWE roster. Your publicly traded Billion Dollar company was built on the broken backs of many guys like me. Hallelujah, Holy Shit... I need an aspirin.

The stuff about invoices was a bit of an eye opener.

Also still find it really interesting how Vince and WWE squandered all the money made during the Hulk-a-mania era within a couple years after Hogan and Macho left.

Sounds like he'd have been better off if he actually WAS a trash man on his days off.

lol

Fucking hell, he looks and sounds ill.

WBF and the Steroid trial cost then a lot of money. Plus, attendance was down a ton and didn't start picking up till mid 96. Some pretty rough times.

JR and Cornette explained that the draw was for wrestlers not booked on House Shows so they at least got something. A certain percentage from each house would go towards the draw.

Not gonna lie I used to pop for Drose's trash can shots.

Newest member of the 2 belt club....with epic promo at the end.

Kevin Owens doesn’t want to go Saudi Arabia. Wonder if they’ll treat him any differently than Daniel Bryan.

The Women's Tag Team titles have not been defended on TV since two days after WrestleMania.

So they turned a new title into a joke and killed the passion for one of their more over female talents. Good move overall.

Belts were a joke from the start. I admire Sasha’s passion, but I don’t know why this would have blind-sided her.

Completely forgot about the WBF.

Between that, XFL 1, and The World restaurant, Vince had some spectacular busts as side businesses.

That was fucking horrible.

Apparently D'Lo got the inspiration for his head shake taunt from the movie Friday and former 49ers player Merton Hanks who did a similar taunt for interceptions.

Specifically from this scene in the film:

watching the wrestlers on vice.

Its already dated a ton seeing Mcintyre and Riddle being in Evolve

Shout out to Merton Hanks!

I remember the story on why Merton did that. He did it for his daughter because of something from Sesame Street. So, essentially, D'Lo got that portion from Muppets.

I like the taunt, but there is something muppety about it.

"everything is figure-out-able" Gabe Sapolsky

Three matches are being advertised for Stomping Grounds:

This isn't even his final form.

I don't know why I put them in spoiler tags, considering they are basically the same fucking matches you've been seeing for weeks and weeks and weeks and weeks.

Really thought WWE would have given D'Lo Brown a crack as an agent/trainer/ambassador type figure at some point. Or put him in the Hall of Fame since they're running out of black guys to put in every year.

Ill be surprised at this rate if by the end of the year Vice doesnt have some kind of actual wrestling show on it

That would actually be pretty cool. I can see them doing quite a nifty little one-hour modern studio show.

Vice is owned partially by Disney. I thought maybe ATT/Warner was involved considering Vice News is on HBO but i guess not.

Probably could have been an agent had his second run lasted longer.

The first time he got released, they likely were still using the same agents from the Attitude Era plus Arn Anderson and Dean Malenko. After he left for the second time in 2009, spots for the next crop of agents started to open up.

Going by PWI, seems he's a strong candidate to become one of the newest agents for Impact Wrestling.

TNA doesn’t count. D’Lo and Lance should go to AEW.

I genuinely don’t remember D’Lo being in WWE around 2008.
