Weird that he wanted to play Aladdin considering his fear on monkeys. Wonder how he thought that was gonna work out?
|
Almost forgot why I came here. Lio Rush is done with AEW. Letting his contract expire in a couple weeks. He's already taking bookings.

This got brought up on Grillin JR and I had no idea this existed. It's Earthquake in a Smackdown Dark Match in 2002. Earthquake is only 38 here!

Keeping him under contract is pretty petty, though. Especially when the place just got done firing a bunch of people who expected to have a job. And to the comment of "it could be a work", remember, this is the same company who did an angle about firing people AND REALLY RELEASED THEM! *I almost said "hill to die on" without even thinking about mentioning Owen. I thought better when actually seeing it written out. |

I feel like at the time, most people here dug Striker because he was "one of us". But with the passage of time we realized how insufferable the IWC can be at times and so his commentary really aged like milk.

Haha! I fucking remember watching this. Heenan was the best. Think I went to a house show where he ended up in a match with Bossman after talking about his momma or something? Heenan wasn't a full time wrestler, and I wanna say I recall Bossman bringing down some MASSIVE chain. I remember it being a thing where Bossman teased the beatdown, but I can't remember if it actually happened. Heenan was doing the chicken shit heel role perfectly, begging in the corner, running, etc. Ahhhhh, fun times. |
Weird at directly acknowledging the cameras and camera crew, even showing them.... but then ignoring the camera right in front of him at the end. Funny stuff though.... Heenan the man

My fav Striker moment is always that one time Cena had to join Nexus and had to do something or get fired, but if he did it he would be free... then the match ended with the stip of Cena getting fired and Striker just yells at the top of his lungs:
Striker: CENA'S FREE!!!!!!!!!! Cole: ........ Cena's fired Striker: ...... you're right. I'm sorry. |

You know who was fucking awesome? Tyson Kidd. He did this submission a couple of times on NXT called “The Dungeon Lock.” He sets it up like a Sharpshooter, but he falls back and captures their arm and wraps his legs around their neck like a triangle. His other leg is free to kick the motherfucker in the head if he wants to.
I remember when CM Punk was calling Superstars and he called Kidd “The Best in the World” during his match before he had hijacked that from Danielson and made it his thing. |
That Bertha Faye song would be just like a 20 second loop if made today

So was his feud with Yoshi Tatsu, culminating in a "Yoshi Tatsu's Action Figure's Leg on a Pole Match"
|
All great shouts. I loved it when he challenged for the NXT Title and lost. I think it may have been the first Takeover after Arrival (just called Takeover). They did a post-match interview with him and Heyman where Kidd was trying to act like it’s cool he lost and Heyman drilled in that wins and losses matter and now it’s back to the drawing board for him. Kidd stormed off. It’s hard to explain, but it was really good, subtle drama.
|
I will miss Heyman's on screen character when he's gone :(
|
Heyman really is a wonderful on-screen performer.

I'd just like to remind everyone that the best wrestler in the world, Santana Jackson, remains unsigned with any major promotion and that should be a freaking felony.

I would LOVE to watch that in person drinking with my buddies. Awesome haha.
Also goes to show how fucking insane MJ was. Just a bananas talent. All time. |
Well he's one of the MJ impersonators in downtown Vegas and works wrestling shows in the area so if you ever happen to find yourself in Sin City you might be able to get drunk and catch a performance lol
|
and tbh the Moonwalk DDT is actually pretty damn slick. Especially on the guys that put effort into selling it.
|
Was going Feb 23-28 too. Cancelled because of COVID (Canada has too many dumb rules). Going to Calgary same time. Frig.
|
Damn that sucks :(
COVID is very evil. |
Yeah just couldn’t risk it. If my job or the government put some stupid rules in last minute. Made $600 on our Metallica tickets each though. Billy Joel not so much.. haha.
|
Woah, woah, woah.
Billy Joel in Vegas in late Feb, you say? |
Yes. Got cheap tickets to sell!! Haha. Tons available though.
|
Gah! I gotta fly back to Canada soon after. Probably shouldn’t risk large gatherings.
|
I don’t give a fuck about getting it. Triple vaxxed, prob had it or will get it, blah blah blah. Just can’t be forced to quarantine for days on end.
|
Well, I also need a negative test before my flight.
|
Yeah you need one to get back in and it can be like $200 US. So dumb.

Been on a 1994 ECW kick. It's an interesting year. The company still has a few of the beginning of ECW/Eddie Gilbert guys but you start to see the familiar names and gimmicks trickle in

I downloaded complete year torrents so I still get all the original music and commercials which I love and in great quality. 95-96 ECW is outstanding but it gets bad fast after Barely Legal 1997. 1998 and 1999 are terrible.

The bushwacker elimination from the 91 Rumble is one of my favorites of all time. Just how he keeps walking cracks me up.

They'd probably be in AEW

lmao listening to a Cameo Danhausen sent to Cornette in which explains that the reason he uses teeth as a weapon is because his opponents already have teeth so it can't be illegal to use more teeth on them. LOL
|
Cornette played those on his podcast a few months back. They were brilliant.
|
Danhausen gonna steal the good Dr. from Adam Cole so he can have access to copious amounts of teeth. Or Adam Cole fights Danhausen with an even larger jar of teeth he got from his wife.
One of those things is going to happen or Tony Khan will be cursed. |

He and Shelton would have been in NXT, tossing people around and people would have called them the new Steiners. They’d probably be split up even earlier, but Haas would have way more chance. |
The Haas of Pain is just a fucking brilliant submission move.
|
yeah i'm surprised no one uses it currently (although i suppose i just might not be aware of someone that is).
|
The guys with amateur wrestling backgrounds are the ones WWE are taking an interest in now. AEW has virtually none that I can think of. If WGTT weren’t in WWE, I think they’d actually probably be splitting their time between American indies as the hottest tag team act there (maybe as THE stars in ROH, helping to prop it up now), or as THE gaijin team in New Japan. Maybe even in Impact too. There are some bigger and more technical dudes there too.
|
the only person on the AEW roster i can think of off the top of my head with a legit amateur wrestling background is leyla hirsch.

Spoilers/RR entrants:
SPOILER: show |
I dont want to see Shane McMahon or Bad Bunny in the Royal Rumble. WWE fucking sucks so bad.
|
So that's Johnny Knoxville, Bad Bunny and Old Shane McMahon taking spots away from actual wrestlers on the roster in the Royal Rumble.
Fucking terrible product. I hope WWE ends soon. |
drew never took it seriously. he could have had a shot at the title at mania, and he voluntarily eliminates himself. i hope wwe gives this legend and hall of famer the opportunity to redeem himself and really get a chance to shine, maybe even with bunny and knoxville in a couple of days. we've waited long enough!

I don't mind Bad Bunny tbh. He was actually pretty entertaining last year and did wayyy better than I expected.
Shane I really hope isn't in the match and is just returning at the Rumble for some kind of on screen role maybe. |
Danhausen for #27
|
Danhausen should win and main event RASSLEMANIUR. In fact he should have a match for every title in WWE at WM. And he should win them all and unify all the titles and then sell that title on Ebay for human monies.
|
yes, very nice. then everyone in the wwe universe will send treasures and fanhausen mail or be cursed

|

|
Big ol dump in his pants 24/7 it seems. Lighten up!! It’s okay bud.
