Just because a woman is a woman doesn't mean she can't have a punchable face. What are you, sexist?
I've always found it weird that these two are the same person.

I'm watching IWA East Coast 'Masters of Pain' 2008 and I don't know why. Mad Man Pondo's in it. The first spot involves him putting a fish hook through Thumbtack Jack's forehead;

Jack then dumps him through the fish-tackle ropes and Pondo gets a bunch of fish-hooks stuck in his arm;
Post-match, Thumbtack Jack curses whatever sadistic motherfucker invented the 'Davey Jones Locker Deathmatch', while Pondo laments his inability to get through the first round of a tournament he booked himself.
Next, Necro Butcher The Sad Deathmatch Clown vs something called 'Juggulator'. I think, judging from his entrance theme, that he's a juggalo, thus adding another facet to his clearly inspired ring name.

What happens if the winning wrestler has had multiple gimmicks, names, looks, etc., to the extent that they don't even appear to be the same person? When it comes to choosing our avatar will there be any leeway here?
Personally, I think we should use the most current form for active wrestlers and/or whichever version is in the Avatar Rumble. I think it'd be best for all 40 or more of us to have visually similar avatars as a show of force and solidarity. Each avatar should appear to be related and recognizable as the same person.

I also found it weird. I still remember how Steiner looked just before he joined the nWo.

I don't see why people shouldn't be allowed to exhibit creative flexibility with their avatars. Especially if a performer has gone through a wide array of gimmicks. I specifically backed a guy for the Rumble that has had countless different looks over the years.

Necro Butcher trips over a bucket at ringside. "This fuckin' bucket..." he says, before going at it with a chair;
Also, Juggulator's done nothing but get beat up so far and already I can see he's a good contender for worst wrestler ever.
*edit, WOW, this idiot's letting Necro carve up his forehead with a box cutter.

Show should be banned. He already won and if he is entered this year and he wins again, I will be legit shook and sad.

At least we can all adopt New Year's Baby avatars. That's new and fresh since his last victory.

Lol, what a finish;
I had a few of the WCW versions. Hogan and Vader were throwing up the double biceps, so my cousin and I would stand them in the middle of the jumbo WWF ring and toss various BCA figures and see if Vader/Hogan could catch them. Which they often did. Those things were balanced quite well.

For example, let's say Kane wins. If you want to use a pic of Kane taken within the span of '97-'14 (Kane? in 2014?), mask or no mask, I think that's fine. As long as there's plenty of red, and a big dude in black and red tights, it should be recognizable to Joe Sixpack and that guy with the Chris Isaac avatar as "WWE Superstar Kane".
However, if you get these smart mark doofuses (Bootaaay and Dragonzord, I'm looking at you) that start having Dr. Isaac Yankem, Fake Diesel, Libertarian Kane, and Glen Jacobs pics from his wife's Myspace page circa 2006 as avatars, then there's no cohesion. It'd just be a small faction of Kane avatars and another of a large, conservative white man. It's just people wanting to shit on the winner and goes against the spirit of the event. It's akin to not wanting to participate because your guy didn't win.
He will get some random push anyway, because that's what always happens.

So unfair. The Cobra is an illegal move in MMA. That's like taking the head kick away from CroCop or the steroids way from GSP.
he's some twat that used tbe on that god awful channel G4. Now he thinks he's important to gaming journalism (lol)
None the less gaming side is painful to sift through. Can't make a top 10 list without people whining about no last of us crap.
I think I'd rather watch the much complaining in my robocop thread

Danny Havoc uses a fan's back as a springboard for some reason;
Never saw a single second of G4. The only personality I know from the network is Kevin Pereira and that's because of Deathsquad.

BCA Owen was my favorite because his legs were extra loose for some reason, so it made his wheel kick and piledriver work excellently.

Guardrails are the bane of every indy wrestling show.
If you're sitting front row, you're gonna get some guardrail to the knees.
And if they're bad/sharp guardrails (like the one at WrestleCon), it can extremely hurt talent

Gaming side doesn't love Sessler any more. He turned heel and sided with the evil Arthur Gies / Ben Kuchera Polygon faction.
Now we think he's a tool so enamored with his rich vocabulary that he has to trot out the word verisimilitude in each of his big AAA title reviews.
In other words, he's become Matt Striker.

Trashy wrestling can be fun, in a so bad it's good sort of way...most of the time it's just bad though. As for the deathmatch stuff, I liken it to Jackass and youtube videos of idiots doing idiotic things.
ha, I always thought he was a tool. Then again I thought everyone on that channel was
I don't get enjoyment out of watching people talk about or play games. I want to play the games myself. I'm watching the MGS stream and I hate when the dude starts talking. I don't need the Arnold doing a director commentary shit. "Shoot this guy in the head and bump into him. Then roll over here. There's a frog. Shoot it. Roll over there. Now I'm walking." I can see all that. You don't need to tell me what I'm seeing.

Gaming side will turn on you faster than an 07 ROH crowd.
The bad wrestling I get, I just question the death match stuff.
