Is there a giant hole in the ceiling?

Prob from feet hitting it I would assume.

That's the ventilation system.

Created by wrestlers trying to escape lol

Didn’t they do a spot during that Dungeon match back in 98(?) between Owen and Severn(?) where one of their heads went through the ceiling?

FTR, when I say “skill” I’m not talking Ricochet vs Osprey gymnastics. The whole point of wrestling is to not hurt your opponent. Potatoing each other isn’t that.

That said, you can see where they’re turning their heads just as the strike lands so that they’re not taking the full brunt.

Correcting myself; it was Fully Loaded ‘98 and it was a match between Owen and Shamrock with Severn as the ref. And they did indeed do a spot where they put Shamrock’s head through the ceiling - albeit the ceiling was already damaged.

I really like the "two technical fouls" thing - it reminds me of public warnings in the World of Sport days, which is something I've long wanted to see brought back. It means that the referee can be empowered to take some kind of action, without jumping straight to a disqualification, so they don't look completely ineffectual.

There's a danger, with those rules, of it all being and bit staid and boring, and potentially repetitive, but what will make it interesting is if they have anyone start to break those rules, and how that's presented.

Surely a heel at some point will just start a match by kicking the face in the nads since they've got another foul to play with.

Uhhh, "intentional contact with the ref" 1 foul.


Knock the ref out, then anything is fair game while the ref is "out". Lotsa room for fuckery.

Very interesting. The 5 second count out certainly raised my eyebrow.

Why would there be overtime? Why not just raise the time limit? Lol

cheeky shenanigans?

i was disappointed when i first saw what the dungeon looked like. got me all hyped for this dank place with chains and iron maidens and shit.

it was just your friend's half finished basement where the parents didn't give a fuck.

i guess that's kinda fitting, too.

That, Savage being bitten by Damien and Taker locking Warrior in the casket are my most vivid memories of Saturday morning wrestling.

Oh, and Earthquake murdering Damien with his ass.

I haven’t found the full details, but apparently he worked the match just fine and was knocked loopy but was able to move around backstage and stuff. When I first read this, I was worried it was because he wasn’t…right, if you know what I mean?

Injury aside, I hope things are “good” for Haas.

Same

+ Macho proposing to Liz

I also remember Ultimate Warrior puking because Papa Shango cursed him, Triple H breaking a jobber’s neck with a botched pedigree, and the Bezerker trying to stab the Undertaker with his sword and it getting stuck in the mat.

Fun fact:

The same jobber than HHH botched the Pedigree with was the same jobber that MVP wrestled his debut match at No Mercy 2006

Papa Shango making Ultimate Warrior puke made me stop watching wrestling for years because I got scared.....

Slopknutz. The Jeff Jarrett/Henry Godwin tag than never was.

I’m still hoping for a Papa Shango Rumble appearance.

Would you guys listen to a Paul Wight/Conrad podcast? I think I would. I just came up with the idea nothing is being worked with them.

Absolutely. Show and Conrad would make an amazing team.

Wight is super affable so I'd be down for that.
