Naito speaking Spanish automatically puts him in my #1, dudes.

God damn.
John Pollock just had a kid and he is doing a G1 podcast.

Bless the man
Oh hell yeah.
That running Destino was one of the best I've seen.
Definitely the best pure Destino I've seen. GOAT Destino remains this

Anyone else think Batista has had a way better movie career than The Rock so far quality-wise? Guardians is amazing, dude was the best part of a Bond movie, and he's about to be in not just a Denis Villeneuve movie but Blade Runner! Meanwhile Dwayne is having to beg people on Twitter to check out Baywatch.

I went to wikipedia to see how old Sanada is and was reminded of his TNA stint with James Storm....

Yep. Although Rock had a headstart because he has so many movies under his belt now. He wanted to be in Hollywood so bad, he just signed on to anything he was offered. Bautista seems to be choosy, or has a great agent.

That's not to say he his run is perfect. He has a lot of straight to DVD stuff that either no one has heard of or cares.

In terms of consistency, absolutely. The Rock has Samuel L Jackson syndrome: accept any movie role no matter how good or bad and then hope for the best.

On this note, it's kinda funny that one of my favourite roles Rock has had was the very brief role alongside SLJ in The Other Guys.

Big Dave meanwhile did his damnedest to save the mess that was Spectre and got Drax over with the WWE Marvel Cinematic Universe, he's got that momentum.
 
Ugh...saw a G1 match just now with the english announcers. My God they have no idea most of the time how to bridge the moments between the action with commentary. They dont interact a lot. They just go quiet way too often. I miss the japanese announcers who is hyperventilating wondering what the next moment may bring.
NJPW English commentary is pure trash and no one here can convince me otherwise.
 
I'm sure the English commentary is acceptable by like....English commentary standards, but I'll always choose Japanese

I obviously don't understand it but the emotion fits the action perfectly. At a certain point I know what moves they are doing, I'd rather hear the most hype commentary possible

Just wish they'd have translation for promos

That's the thing: even Batista's bad or not-worth-watching stuff, it exists and he moves on from it.

Dwayne's spent the entire run of Baywatch being openly petulantly "you just didn't Get it" towards anyone with even a criticism of it, and that yeah it may have bombed in the US but the 100 who watched it here loved it so much you guys, isn't that what really matters

Heel Batista at his most cowardly was less whiny than Real Dwayne's been about his few bad movies. So yeah, give me Dave everyday

Big Dave can act. Dwayne only knows how to play various amped up versions of his Rock persona.
