John Cena thinks women's breasts feel like sand.

Cena trying to get Nikki to make the hot tag to Brie?

Watched Daniel Bryans Journey to mania.
Why do I get the impression John Cena is totally going though his Hulk Hogan post WM6 "its not time for me to step out of the main event yet. I NEED THE SPOT LIGHT. SCREW THESE YOUNG PEOPLE" phase?

Cena thought he was doing a 90210 intro for Bryan's doc
Makes sense, he's a over the hill actor trying to fit in with a bunch of young kids

speaking of ruining things
IWGP Heavyweight Title: Nobuhiko Takada [c] vs Shinya Hashimoto - NJPW Battle Formation - 04.29.96
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JxCkL9zoxE
fuckin NJPW killed UWFi for good with this match.
best part? Takada went on to found Pride FC and nearly killed pro-wrestling in Japan. damage is such they're still recovering from that period.

He can't ruin what's already terrible.
The dude never had hair... Just like Mean Gene
Just watched the Bryan post-Mania doc and I thought it was okay, but I feel it was way too much kayfabe.
They skipped over his entire heel run with AJ and the fact they tried to turn the crowd against him for months after Mania 28, they skipped over his Team Hell No stuff (once again because it was intended for him as a heel) and they pretended the matches were real.
Aside from that I had hoped it had more backstage stuff with people other than Cena and Brie (Rollins was there once or twice I suppse).
It was okay, but it could have been a lot better if they had made a legit doc about his journey, about the mistakes the company made before finally getting behind him and stuff. Like they (I believe Rollins) mentioned that Rey was boo'd, but they didn't mention Batista was hated even more and the crowds reaction was mostly to Batista being pushed ahead of Bryan, etc. Hell, that part could have worked in part kayfabe context, with evil Hunter pushing a friend ahead of Bryan.
I dunno, in my mind it wasn't as good as it could have been, but a fun doc regardless. Hope they continue to do these in the future.

Glad to see Gary Hart on the list.
Hart/Heenan/Heyman to me are the three definites, 4th spot is open for debate. Jimmy Hart's a possibility, as is Kevin Sullivan.

Isn't MMA almost dead in Japan now? It's like we've come full circle.
The whole thing goes all the way back to Maeda being a fucking punk and cheap shotting Choshu. Also, UWFi being terrible at business, in spite of drawing huge gates in the early 90's.

pretty much. even K-1 went under. K-1 MAX died as soon as Most Beautiful Asian Masato retired.
they banked on Satoshi Ishii to carry MMA into a new era but that died when he lost his first match to a 40 years old Hidehiko Yoshida.
I agree with this. They need to drop the kayfabe for those kinds of things.
Maybe in a future documentary they'll go into more detail into all of his career with no-kayfabe commentary.

What are you trying to say? I shouldn't have brought it up?
Poor Liquid. Not even jobber status around here.
You can always go to the Family Matters house.

oh hush.
There's a lot of factors that can get things ignored. Timing being the biggest. Sometimes good things happen while this place is at a breakneck pace during Raw, for instance. Sometimes good things are posted in the dead of night. Sometimes right before or during something else going on, some news of some sort. Sometimes shit just falls through the cracks.
I never ignore anyone on purpose. This thread is one of the faster moving ones in Community, we have a reputation for being a CRAZY thread outside of our community.

Go eat at the squared circle. Have a nice stroll through the southside (wear riot gear). Navy pier and the zoo are basic touristy shit too.
Let me explain myself one second before Bret hates me, I was thinking that America wouldn't want a Canadian on their mountains. At first I'd written Bret as number 1 but this thought came into my mind so I changed it. But believe you me, Bret Hart is always in my heart. Hart to heart.

Alright we're shooting now.
Shoot hour. Air them grievances. People who get brought up, recognize the shoot and let's be better people out of it.
I will make a better effort to let you know when I watch what you post and what I'm excited for. I have a LOT of shit on my Watch Later list, they get used. Oh yes, they get used. I just don't communicate it well.
I just want everyone to like me, I want to be as cool as stro and Sunflower

Watching the AJ-Paige segment again for what feels like the hundredth time, I'm noticing that Paige's facial expressions really helped tell the story. When AJ poked her nose, she looked like she was going to be angry, but held it back. Once AJ challenged her, she looked like she changed and was ready to step it up. Little things like this can go a long way.

The twist is Sunflower was never cool. Which isn't a twist at all, it's common knowledge.
NEW PAGE so I'll shoot for a second. Since we're shooting right now.
I just want us to keep getting larger, I hate it when people feel ignored and I can do better to help people feel like this is a home where they ARE appreciated.
I find Ithil's posts tinged with condescension. It drives me BANANAS. But I know he's good people so I try not to let it get to me. There, I was shooting now I'm done!
