Re: That 80's Column #2 - Hulk Hogan

A few things I'd like to add. It's Vince J McMahon and Vince K McMahon, not Sr and Jr, but everyone makes that mistake these days. Also, Jim Crockett was Mid-Atlantic (Virginia and Carolinas), not Mid-South. I wouldn't say Hogan never "learned how to wrestle." Watching his Japan matches, h...

Re: Lance Storm's Take on the Rip Rogers-Will Ospreay Debate

I'd expect that dingleberry Ryan to miss the point of the argument.

Re: 2017 Dream Match. Vader vs Sabu!

Given their age, I would say this would have been a dream match about 20 or 25 years ago, but now I'm not quite so sure.

Re: Raw ratings down again for show taped in London

That's certainly a part of it, but TV as a whole has been on a downward trend for over a decade because there's more networks fighting for a slice of an ever shrinking pie.

Re: Kirbs2002 Reviews APW's Cow Palace Royale

It looks like she's a legit MMA fighter who's taken up wrestling. This was a pretty standard babyface vs monster heel type of match so I can't say for sure

Kirbs2002 Reviews APW's Cow Palace Royale

Attended in person, approximate seat is lower box, back row. Basically as far back as I can get so I have better perhipheral vision. Also partway through the opening event, I moved another section to the left because I had a drunk asshole heckler in front of me. Opening. First we begin being greeted...

Re: Billy Corgan Joins TNA Creative Team

I don't understand why nearly everyone feels the need to reinvent the wheel when it comes to booking. This is (one of) Russo's biggest problems. People who want to watch this stuff would (and already do) find some TV talk show and/or some internet hugbox to get their fix.

I'm a sucker for the traditional, old-fashioned piledriver. I can't think of many I've seen do it, only Jerry Lawler and Mick Foley.

They put in Sammartino, so never say never. Probably Dudleyz, RVD or Dreamer, though I'd put my money on the Dudleyz.

Mostly about the venue. Makes me wonder how WWE did it well but everyone else screwed up. Though comments elsewhere on Twitter are about people on the sunny side getting roasted in said sun.
