But hey, they're getting paid for all this, so it still sounds like a pretty sweet job to me. They're all probably laughing their way to the bank, or at least chuckling anyway.

...none of those people have good hair really

Dolph Ziggler - looks fried and greasy

Roman Reigns - looks greasy

Xavier Woods - looks really dry

Seth Rollins - looks greasy

Luke Harper - frizzled

The Miz - looks too gelled

Justin Gabriel - donut really remember what his hair looks like

Jack Swagger - does not really have much hair

I still think that Harper & Rowan's theme would be much better without the kid at the start. Though, I do get an "Attitude Era" feel from their theme.

As for Ambrose's theme, it sounds like something you would hear during the early days of the name change to WWE and The Brand Extension, or a BGM from one of the later game in the SmackDown series.

WTF did they do to Ambrose's theme....

very interesting list here.

not sure I'd consider Ed "The Bull" Gantner to be all that good of a worker.

I'm sure myself and most folks here have heard of these names. I'm guessing this is more targeted towards younger folks.

http://www.wwe.com/classics/classic-...nown-wrestlers

Used to be enough to know that Del Wilkes was the guy under The Patriot mask to best your buddies at wrestling trivia. Nowadays, with internet back alleys playing home to all manners of ring obscura, you look like a fool if you can’t name drop self-styled Nigerian saxophonist/demigod “The Great” Power Uti or acromegalic 1940s sideshow attraction The French Angel.

And that’s a good thing. Professional wrestling truly is one of the world’s richest subcultures — a distinction which has populated it with one-of-a-kind personalities, while, at the same time, making it difficult for all of those one-of-a-kind personalities to stand out. We wanted to give the limelight to a few talented performers who don’t always get the credit they deserve, so we went to locker room experts like Jerry “The King” Lawler and William Regal to learn about the ring’s unsung heroes.Give it a read. If you dig it, we'll do it again sometime.

1.)Ray Stevens
2.)Mark "Rollerball" Rocco - another outstanding british talent that in my mind is one of the very best british wrestlers.
3.)Jackie Fargo - Jackie was truly the King of Memphis before Lawler. He was such a great and funny guy.
4.)Brad Armstrong - another guy that was phenomenally talented that never got his due in the biz.
5.)Jos LeDuc
6.)Pepper Gomez
7.)Johnny Saint - this guy was probably one of the top three best british wrestlers ever imo.
8.)Austin Idol
9.)Les Thornton - this guy was truly a talented worker who never got his due.
10.)Ed "The Bull" Gantner

Vastardikai 07-31-2014 06:33 PM

Disgusting lack of Sputnik Monroe.

#1-norm-fan 07-31-2014 06:47 PM

Brad Armstrong seems out of place on that list.

Vastardikai 07-31-2014 07:10 PM

Granted, he was a great hand in the ring, but I wouldn't have put him in a spot where Sputnik Monroe should have been.

I mean, Sputnik only integrated sporting events in the South.

Fignuts 07-31-2014 07:10 PM

Was Mark Rocco the first Black Tiger?

Bad News Gertner 07-31-2014 07:20 PM

Downloaded Timeline History of the WWE 1992 Bret Hart. Watched the trailer and it looks like 3 hours of Bitter Hart whining.

Apparently, AJ is pulling an "Avril Lavigne", as she now has a "No Touching" policy, when it comes to taking photos with males.

http://38.media.tumblr.com/0f83e1d38...1yolo1_500.jpg

It's being said that this is all because of a male fan that inappropriately touched her when taking a photo with her recently.

Fignuts 07-31-2014 07:39 PM

God, can't stand Bret anymore. Gave him the benefit of the doubt for years, as if anyone had reason to be bitter, it was him with all the shit that's happened to him and his family over the years.

But at this point, at his age, I feel like he should have moved on and stopped talking shit about literally everybody.

Bad News Gertner 07-31-2014 08:17 PM

Gonna watch it tomorrow night. It's a very interesting year in the company, but it's going to be 2 and a half hours of " so and so held me back, so and so sabotaged me, so and so wasn't as good as me" typical nonsense from Bret.

Lol I love the opening line of "the fans were sick of the big muscle guys". Clearly they were, because business tanked after the "muscle guys" left.

Also as part of the budget cuts, WWE will be dropping the magazine division. If a magazine distribution company wants to take over the WWE Magazine then WWE will look at that option but as of now the magazine department is no more.

They were expecting the WrestleMania checks to be lower than they were

I think WWE booking has killed more midcard pushes than John Cena. Just sayin'.

PWInsideher:

WWE Hall of Famer and former NWA World champion Harley Race was injured in a fall earlier today in St. Louis and will miss the final Mid-Atlantic Legends Fanfest.
Race slipped and fell on his left hip but still tried to brave the drive from St. Louis to Charlotte for his scheduled appearance to promote a new DVD documentary released by www.highspots.com. After about 35 miles, Race decided the pain was too great and returned home.

Race will be getting examined shortly as there is fear he may have broken his hip. Race's right hip was replaced some time ago.

I know he had a cane with him he was using at the time.

hopefully he gets better real soon.

WWE Network should see a good increase going international, especially when they get to the UK
