BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!

What was the date of the last real WCW show? (As in, before Vince bought them)
March 19th Thunder, probably. Unless you count the weekend shows, which were strictly recap shows at that point.

How many episodes do you have left to recap?

Keep up the good work bro, love the recaps even though I never watched WCW. It's like a beautiful train-wreck, you can't stop looking haha.
We're not worthy.

Like I told him, just wait until you get to September 2000, when WCW started cutting costs big time and doing Nitro & Thunder on the same night.

I'm giving it a standing ovation right now.
I'm genuinely surprised they wasted this on main event. I could see vince wanting to see it happen again live.

It's a smart finisher to show off his strength. With the weight of Cesaro's opponents being mostly supported by his thighs, all he really has to do is pull and hope whoever he's working with doesn't sandbag. It looks extremely impressive though, which is the important part.

Well I feel really fucking weird for saying this but... yeah I hope so.
Cesaro mastered the WWE style in half the time of Daniel Bryan and like... a quarter of the time it took Punk. I'd say at this point he's a lock for a WHC Elimination Chamber spot and will probably be really in the title hunt shortly after Mania.
But I also predicted a Tyson Kidd midcard push for sometime in 2012 at this time last year so maybe I'm retarded.

fuckin' called it, man
And whoever he's doing to gets their crotch grabbed, everyone wins!

that's still a lot of fucking weight to put on your legs, even though it's easier to support the weight there. Even his legs were shaking during it.

No doubt it's still a ton of strength on display, but my point is that it makes it "easy" enough on Cesaro that he'll pretty much be able to do it to anyone he feuds with, even big stiffs like Khali.

Jackie Chan was doing the Tombstone in 1979!
Idk, it looks more difficult and strenuous than the Shellshock. Shellshock is basically a normal squat, but without the squat. I don't understand why Ryback has had so much trouble doing it to so many guys even smaller guys that wouldn't make sense to have issues with.
The Neutralizer looks like it takes a lot more leg, arm, and core strength to do even to a smaller guy. Claudio pretty much does a full squat but with all the weight in front of him instead of on his shoulders.

He also did this
Too bad they're going to waste his talents on a feud with the Miz.
I've been playing too much Street Fighter lately cause that looks way better than the Vega claw strike from the wall

Cesaro is great. He just needs to sort out those nipples.
Cesaro is basically Shadowloo embodied into one man

I think this will work as a public link to my pictures that I posted at the DDT show. Let me know if this works for you. I'll put the rest of mine up over the next week or two. I've got a ton of pictures to work through.

Wow, great photos man! Really can't wait to see that Generico vs Omega main event, holy shit.
Less that 24 hours to Wrestle Kingdom VII! Pretty hyped right now.
Also, there was a Pro-Wrestling Festival in Tokyo yesterday to promote Wrestle Kingdom, and Jado & Gedo of CHAOS wrestled TAKA & Taichi of Suzuki-gun - apparently Taichi spat out his gum and it stuck to Okada's jacket, so now Okada has declared war on Suzuki-gun and challenged them to a 6-man tag at some point in the future! Hoping for Okada, Nakamura & Yujiro vs Suzuki, Takayama & TAKA at the next iPPV.
Yeah, it's going to be great seeing Flair in Japan again, and in the ring with such legends (and Sanada);
. Ric Flair & Keiji Mutoh vs Tatsumi Fujinami & Seiya Sanada - (AJPW 01/26/13)

He got destroyed by Zack Ryder's push.
They were setting up a feud with Ziggler and looked like they were going to put the US title on him eventually, but Ryder's popularity and youtube feud with Ziggler reached critical mass, so Ryan got pushed to the side.
I don't know why they never went back to him.
What about CE-SA-RO! CE-SA-RO!
He's Swiss, not Ukrainian.

Like duble duble e know the difference, it's all outside their universe.
"USA! USA! USA!"
The fans seem to like chanting that even when Cesaro faces another foreigner.

I think I'll be waking up at 2 am for the New Japan party.
At Khali, a Canadian that namedrops Uncle Bret every other sentence and a Lepricon (Ireland? Parts Unknown?) no less.
And a South African.

I knowwwww! But I can't make it live. Work. :|
I am so goddamn excited though. Uggghhhhh.
What a hoss, ..shit
What strength! I fucking love Cesaro. Dude needs to be one of the top heels of the company by the end of the year.
I remember WCW Worldwide lasting a couple months past Vince buying them. The last couple shows were a lot of vintage Bobby Heenan messing around.
