A Bad Brains rip off, that's so awesome. I bought tickets for my girlfriend and I for the ROH/Chikara mega show, as well. I can't wait! This will be our first Chikara show.


Dude your in for a treat. CHIKARA is awesome, CHIKARA live is the best thing ever! We gotta do a wrassle-gaf meet up. I got GA tix for both shows, how about you?
 
In case anybody's vaguely interested, these are the cards I put together and printed up for my local gaming/wrasslin' trio.

It's two games (each of those above links are identical, just in a different format):

The first game works like the GAF Rumble. People draw numbers randomly (in this case, it's the three of us versus "Nobody". Nobody gets one-quarter of the entrants. The Omega cards have nothing to do with Kenny. They're a sort of wild card which you can use to randomly grab one card from another player's (or Nobody's) decks from a selection of numbers that have not yet come down. That way, if you somehow picked numbers 1 through 6 and they already got eliminated, you still have a chance to be in the game. Winner is, of course, the number who wins.

The second game is just a "play the card when this happens or when name on card enters" thing. All the cards are equally dealt out at the beginning, and the player who plays the most cards wins.

I have no idea what the winner actually wins, but this'll still be more fun than just watching the Rumble sans distraction.


Oh, and the margins are shifted 0.3" to the right because my printer is spewing Magenta on the far left edge of the page due to some sort of toner malfunction, agitated possibly by one of the researchers here confusing contact cleaner with air spray. Also, the empty cards are in case I think of additional tropes or somewhat likely (or not at all likely but just amusing to have in a deck) surprise entrants but don't have access to a printer.

i think i would mark out if ambrose was in the rumble. no lie.

GA for Chikara and 2nd row for ROH. Since we are traveling to go to the show, I figured we might as well pay the extra 20 bucks and get some awesome seats. I'm totally down for a Gaf meetup. Maybe we can all grab some food or something before the first show?

Sounds great to me. I'm travelling as well. You live in Ohio right, bart, if I remember correctly?
 
That's right, I'll be traveling from Columbus. It shouldn't be too bad of a drive. I was contemplating taking the Mega Bus to Chicago, but I think that'll depend on how far the venue is from where my girlfriend and I are staying.

*Edit*
Nihon - What about you? We were thinking of maybe heading out a couple days earlier to hang out in the city.
 
Vince should be ashamed. Just give the guy some time off already, holy crap. He had a career year in 2011, just let him sit out a bit and heal up 100%. I've no doubt this hyper-extended knee might have been a way for Mark's body to compensate for the hamstring injury somehow.
 
Saw the video of this. It was as random as Del Rio's groin injury but Henry didn't fight through it like Del Rio did. He just went to the ground and rolled out of the ring.

It was SO awkward how he just goes to the ground, rolls out of the ring, then they go to commercial. When they come back, Cole rambles out something about how during the break, Henry came back in the ring and was knocked out and got covered.
 
We've got 3 from Gaf going to an ROH show that isn't in Mania weekend? That must be some sort of record..... definitely a record to have 3 of us going to a Chikara show.

Yeah, that was an awkward audible. I guess the best thing that can come out of it is them showing that shit can happen during a commercial break other than a headlock or two.....but then why not go back and show footage of it?

How much is this? I tried to find it on the page but it wanted me to create an account and sign in first.

I read somewhere part of the reason he still working is because he wants too because he fears he will lose heat if he takes time off.

Now with this injury either make the rumble match 1 vs 1 or if does work it after the match give him time off. Daniel Bryan is doing great as champion and let him keep it till Wrestlemania.

He would. And this is a problem with wrestling as a whole. If you do bust your ass and make it to main event status, bring on the painkillers because RARELY do people get a second shot at it.

Fucking SUCKS.

Pretty good, although I would replace "Hey, Wasn't That Guy Still With TNA?" with "Hey, That Guy Is Still In WWE?"
 
I've got to hand it to Hogan. I can't believe he would do a leg drop again, considering how badly it has fucked his back up after all these years.

Mega bus is great to Chicago the bus drops you off in the heart of downtown. Cabs are everywhere shouldn't be a problem getting around the city. I'm planning on staying with my buddy on the north side so I'm probably heading out a couple days early to party. Drinks and lunch before or partying the day before or after would be cool. Lets do this right wrassle-gaf.
 
Has Maryse had major plastic surgery? Her face looks totally different now,

EDIT: Got rid of second pic for the sake of the page.
 
Weakling. I stayed up till 5am EST waiting for JCW's Legends Show to start.

I wish I had WrassleGaf that night.

LOL! I admire your dedication, but why would you do that to yourself? I mean, sure, there was no way of knowing the Legends show would be THAT terrible beforehand, but surely you must've had some idea?

Oh god, I'm having flashbacks to that Rock & Roll Express vs Midnight Express 'match'. *throws up*

I had some idea, but the later it got the more I actually wanted to see it because I knew it would be laughingly bad. The thing I remember most is Ken Patera looking like he'd just woke up and had slept in his ring gear.

Heh, I remember Ron Garvin came out in what looked like his street clothes for the battle royale, and the ring announcer had to be told by Foley who Garvin was, which was pretty sad. That seemed to be the running theme of the show; a whole bunch of moments that made me say "wow, that's sad".

I think out of the whole bunch Bob Backlund looked like he was actually prepared for it. He looked like he had just woke up from a good night's rest and took a cold shower before going to the ring....or maybe he had stayed up all night downing energy drinks.
 
Soo... turns out I can't order the RR from wwe.com because I'm in the UK, and I don't have Sky. Can anyone recommend a good "alternative" place to get it? I'll happily pay a little for a reliable stream, as I was fully prepared to pay the whole amount to get the official stream. First time in a long time I've actually wanted to order a PPV and I can't heh.
 
At first glance, I was wondering what Triple H was doing there...

He would. And this is a problem with wrestling as a whole. If you do bust your ass and make it to main event status, bring on the painkillers because RARELY do people get a second shot at it.

Fucking SUCKS.

Nothing to do with anything...
Was just curious did you get my PM.. it kept flaking out and didn't want to spam your inbox.
