I remember the ending to this match being crazy when I saw it. It's a wonder London isn't paralyzed.

"

Today is the 20th anniversary of the Sid leg break in WCW :eek:

I haven't seen an owenbrown post in forever!

London and Kendrick were such a fun team. Who was doing pbp? He was pretty good.

The guy I spoke about earlier: Steve Romero. I thought he was great. He'd yell "ohhhhh" every time he saw a cool move or a hard strike. I think he replaced Bill DeMott
Romero and Josh Mathews were a fun team

Went back and watched the 4 Akio vs Paul London Velocity matches. So friggen good.

Akio ended up being Jimmy Wang Yang right? Remember him being really good. He was crazy young during his WWE runs.

Yeah, he's still only 39 years old

Wanna feel old. Jimmy Wang Yang has a daughter who wrestles.

Jimmy Wang Yang was wrestling on WCW television at 18 years old.

That's amazing all things considered

DSOTR are doing an episode on Johnny K9/Bruiser Bedlam. This is going to be the sleeper of the season. He wrestled a lot in my city and all the old indie guys from his era have stories and stories about him.

Jeff Hardy has him beat by a year or 2, he was 16 or 17 when he was first on tv.

I'd give it to Anita Realman. :shifty:

Hailey Berry can get it too

Hypothetical: Imagine WWE still had crowds of some size.... would Vince give an anti-masker gimmick to someone, and would the fans boo or cheer him?

That video was really cringe/not funny

best logo of the 3 is Dallas

I'm honestly surprised we didn't see a maga inspired wrestler after the Swagger attempt, or a maga inspired authority figure.

Feel like Vince wanted to do a MAGA/anti-mask gimmick but the shareholders advised against it lol

Lol oh yeah. I mean, it wouldn't be overly difficult to run the gimmick without being obvious. Have a new heel rise to power, let him cut promos where he's making obvious lies and appealing to the lower card guys, and slowly have him build up a following where he's nearly untouchable until whoever you wanna make as a babyface star comes along to dethrone him.

Anti-vaxxer gimmick would be better. Wrestler rises in the rankings dominating his opponents each week and then dies.

I was listening to Cornette’s “take” on Jericho having COVID and I’m sure he suggests someone (maybe even Jericho himself) having a Pro-Trump gimmick and him being the biggest heel on the show. I’m not so sure.

So basically Sam Adonis's gimmick

Having looked up who that is; I guess so yeah. But being Pro-Trump/anti-Mexicans when you’re working in Mexico probably would make you a heel. In the US you’ll closer to Bret’s Heel in the US/Face in Canada gimmick.

Prrrrrrrrrrrety sure that me and 1000000 people had the same...idea. lol

Asuka is almost 40. Never would've guessed.

By her looks or the fact her sofa and the assorted shit on it look like something you'd find in a child's bedroom?

But yeah, asians generally do age well to a point.

Got to love how the voice over guy gets his name wrong, "henning" instead of "Hennig"

Lmao fucking Scott Steiner

Listening to Undertaker's appearance on Joe Rogan

"Too much pretty and not enough substance". I get what he's saying but it's hilarious coming from a guy with an eight minute entrance.
