the look of a man that just watched Wrestlemania 2000 knowing that wrestling died that day.

I'm listening to current one, is that with the Paranoid Hogan/Nash impressions? I listen to the one about Over the edge, and I love the Vince impression.
I've been listening to the Starrcade episodes. And recently the WrestleMania 2000 one (since I just watched it). I honestly don't know when he pops up. It seems pretty frequent, though. Just any time he's mentioned really.

Lapsed Nash and Hogan are delightful.

Minus all the crawling around, I like the demon king. His promo explaining the name Finn Balor was great.
I won't lie, there's a lot of fat on The Lapsed Fan. They laugh a lot, they sometimes get hung up on things that aren't funny (to me), or present some things matter-of-factly that are off-base, but maaan, if you just treat it like you're hanging with two occasionally obnoxious pals, it's a great time. Just a couple of generally affable guys who like to talk about wrestling and have fun with the silliness of it all. I'll continue to recommend it, even though I understand when people can't get into it.
Remember, Steph going over after Talking Smack tonight: https://youtu.be/p0sH9NgUbV8
The crawling is jank yeah, but the head dress thing is what really has to go
I'm pretty surprised wwe thinks both are gonna get over. Finn is getting over in spite of those lame elements right now. This is what NXT should be for - weeding out crap elements of gimmicks.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Steph giving herself credit in a "shoot" damn

Does Pat Patterson hold more influence than Kevin Dunn? I'm legit curious.

Question with NJPW: does it have story lines in the way WWE does it or is just more of two guys facing off in matches? If something develops it's more just a feud but not like "he interrupted my wedding"
NXT loved that shit

Two different shows mate.
It mostly dude facing off.
There are storylines, but it's more of "he disrespected me" and "I want that belt" than anything else.
Order of influence:
- Vince
- HHH
- Dunn
- Barrios
- Steph
- Michelle Wilson
- Hayes
Pat is consulted for Rumble booking at this point and thats it.

You know what fuck nba 2k16 and this janky ass playing system. Back to vice City.

I am ok with that. Matches I've watched so far have been really great. Elgin/Naito was solid
Watching Omega and Yano was also a lot of fun. Could totally just see Omega playing off Yano and the crowd. It was a ham fest but it worked
Also interesting to see how NJPW moves between these different arena sizes. Goes from massive productions to low rate indie shit.

Del Rio hasn't even been back for a year and he's already looking to leave / Triple H wants to get rid of him lol

List is on point, however, I believe Dunn is in the no 2 spot. I heard that 3H doesn't like Dunn because of his influence over Vince. I would think Patterson would be at least above Hayes...
They brought him back to fuck him over just like every talent.
Its what they do.
They will pay Rio to sit at home and collect if it means they can feel superior.
Not even close, Dunn is in a high executive position as head of television.
Did they do anything so far?

Because they believe money is everything to people but Del Rio wants to wrestle and be involved in something that makes sense.

Sin Cara teamed with Neville, Lucha thing has been getting tossed by corbin like most.... Most... Most Lucha's do.
The hair is dyed.
Is that from today?
There was a pic from about a week ago when he was grey...
Guess they convinced him to come back.
Jimmy King

From last night, apparently.
He worked a decent amount of dates at the end of last year.
Can't see him wanting to work more than maybe 2 events?
And who would he even work at this point?
Corbin?
Cena?
Seth?
Finn?
Kane?

Taker looks like he's ready to fuck someone up.
Or just fuck up his hip
Watching Punk spar made him think he could go against a heavyweight.

Man. Should have listened to X-Pac's interview with Austin first and then Strowman. Both are just fantastic, but this chat with X-Pac is super dark, but Strowman's so happy and uplifting.

Cena and Reigns are the only TaKer money matches left.

The Phenom vs The Phenomenal One, goddammit.
Reigns pinning Undertaker would probably one of the few things that would make fans resent him even more.
