Do we need someone to take over for Sunny? I know he's swamped.

Oh CHIKARA, how we all loved you once.
Already PM'd a mod. Just say 'No' to Shane Douglas.
Man that must have been 3 years ago or so now. That was the year Zandig glitched outside the ring, right?

Imagining him vs Roman makes me have bad memories of Nash v. Bulldogwhen does vince discover tiny iron?
He had some underrated matches imo. But not many people had great matches in the Attitude era lol. His mic work ruled. Especially when he was on commentary. Grade A comedy.Ministry Undertaker is best Taker
Best Theme- Check
Best Look- Check
Only thing is that his matches are not that strong during this period and his mic work sucked.
Look at that hair!
I think it was two years, but yeah.
Also having rewatched that Hardcore Homecoming review has re-ignited my Shane Dozglas hate. How did this fucker ever get so big in ECW?

I remember there being some talk last year of trying to watch 1,000 matches in a year, anyone still doing that? I've been keeping track of the matches I've watched so far here;

Also, this is The Zandig's year. As is every year. All praise Zandig!

When does the Avatar Rumble happen? Is it at the same time as the RR or not? How are the wrestlers selected?
Whatever happens, the end result can't be worse than that Ascension avatar I ended up with last year after the lottery so i'm game.

How about that guy in the background? I'm sure he'd be a crowd pleaser for everyone's avatar.
Not me I don't work myself in to a shoot

In Beef's unfortunate absence I will also mention Ganondorf, he would want it that way.

30 people each choose a wrestler to put into the Rumble, and then when my wife or I win, all participants change their avatar to a picture/drawing of whichever wrestler we picked for a month. Last year my wife won with Tyler Breeze. The year before I won with Archibald Peck. This year you'll either get Dalton Castle or Sweets Makabe.

Creepy was good. Especially for a man who rose from a grave to become a wrestler. That's creepy as it is.

You can enter Shaq as a participant in the Avatar Rumble. He has ring experience.
goddamn, that'd be fantastic! if only i could mandate everyone having the same avatar as me as well.
We'll always have '96 Sunny. Much better than 20 years later Sunny.

They're even bigger now. Well one was bigger than the other.
Billy Gunn had so much talent but his microphone skills were similar to a toilet flushing.
At least Bart won in the legit WWE shooting contest.

I've always been surprised Bart Gunn never went into MMA after that legit shoot fight competition victory. I can only assume MMA knew he'd be too much for them at that time.

Guys give me the absolute best top to bottom PPV from WWE circa 1996-1999
I want to watch it tonight.

Around that time, MMA was more bare knuckle brawling than it is now. With proper training he could've had a nice little career maybe but most of those guys grew up punching brick walls and shit. Bart would've definitely had to find a learning curve with his age and late mentality. He had no business doing yhat shit so late in his career.

Royal Rumble 1999 is a certified banger. If you don't mind stepping out of those years I'd recommend Wrestlemania X7 as well, a top 3 WM of all time.

Yes, instead we got Big Show ruining Cody Rhodes. Motherfuckers.

I saw him on the underground in London once. He looks even more absurd in real life.
