GOAT:
Incredible on the mic, incredible in the ring, has reinvented himself (successfully) a million times and remains not only relevant, but amazing even today despite being in his 40's.
Honorable Mention:
Not only is he arguably the best in ring worker *ever*, but he's absolutely fucking hilarious. Dude had me in stitches damn near every time he got on the microphone. Amazing.

Mania 1 looks so fucking ancient. Like, you could tell me it happened during the 40s and I'd believe you.

Definitely. Seem like actual top notch dudes.
I think my hope is that after the fallout from what will take place in #5years more people will watch DDT.
*edit* it is very unlikely Regal ever leaves my all time top 5.
That's what caused me to lapse. The product had been declining for years but I still had Eddie and my favourite, Benoit, and then I didn't. Chris Benoit would absolutely be my GOAT if he hadn't have done what he did, now his name just makes me angry. I didn't think I'd come back to wrestling ever again until MITB 2011.

I pretty much stick to the Wrestling Observer stuff (of which there is usually 60 or so a month), The Lapsed Fan and the LAW.

Meltz and his ratings for Okada are ridiculous but his opinion is just an opinion.
Spiderman homecoming was good, third best film behind spiderman 2 and 1.
I get to watching fucking Metallica live tonight, I've been talking about this with my friends for years and it's finally happening. My dad has seen them 3 times, one of them at Woodstock 99 so its time for me to catchup.
Also Im so happy Twin peaks returns Sunday, this tiny break was terrible.

Mulholland Dr. might be my favorite movie ever. Fucking hell.
Lapsed Fan and New Generation Project Podcast.
Lapsed Fan is very in depth and hilarious, New Gen is about looking back at 93-98 WCW and WWF, a more formulaiac but still entertaining listen.

LAW's entire line, Talk is Jericho, Wrestling Observer/Figure Four, Steve Austin
Quite... No uh, quote, I quote myself enjoying them... Yeah that was what I wanted to actually put.

Watched it for the first time last Sunday since there was no twin peaks. Had no idea what the fuck I watched but someones very good explanation in off topic made it make sense to me and in retrospect made me appreciate way more. Lynch is a madman
I'm subscribed to the AE Podcast, OSW Review, Weird Science and How2Wrestling.

Apparently Lynch has said they exist in the same narrative universe and Mulholland Dr. was originally going to be a spin off about Audrey going to Hollywood.
Makes you think about the person behind the diner. The cube. The layout of Club Silencio and a lot of other things.
I hadn't rewatched it in years and the last 45 minutes just floored me.

Honorable mention:
So many other amazing wrestlers. Austin, Angle, Sting in the next row.
Hogan and Flair were both insanely captivating over such huge periods of time through WWF, WCW & even TNA (for better or worse).

In case anyone cares, someone has been posting clips of Fire Pro Wrestling World and has already made AJ Styles.
We're gonna have good shit already on launch day. Jeez...

I've grown tired of the nostalgia podcasts but OSW Review is still a must watch/listen whenever a new one comes out.
Voices Of Wrestling is a divisive show but even if I don't agree with some of their opinions they are very knowledgeable about the current scene. And you get a good passionate rant from one of them every episode.
VOW hosts other shows and the best one of the lot is called Music Of The Mat. It's all about music in wrestling and they go into so much detail about their chosen topic. Since so much wrestling music is knock offs of proper songs they delve deep into that and point out the influences.
Colt Cabana's Art Of Wrestling and its British equivalent Morgan Webster's Wrestling Friends are also usually great wrestler interviews depending on who you are into. You're bound to find a bunch of wrestlers you like who have talked to Colt.

As with EC-Drew, Spud has taken a knock to the head, and thinks it's 2002. As a reformed 1PW fan from 06, that gear and that entrance music is stirring my nostalgia something fierce.
Excuse me, but that's a Smokin' hot take.
early 90s wcw is the pinnacle of tag team wrestling. even hayes isn't horrible
jimmy jam is the hbk of the team though
Me and Dato.

Okada had a **** match with Bad Luck Fale of all people.
If only Cody had the in-ring ability to match his charisma, but he doesn't, and his offence all looks wack.

I feel confident in saying this, in 2-3 years, he will be considered the GOAT:
He's not even 30 and he's rewriting the rules of match quality in wrestling.

I just had a realsation that I'm old. Found a Simpsons arcade machine in the wild today. "I played this when I was a kid 10 years ago!"
"You were 17 10 years ago"
"Ok 20 years ago...and a bit more"

A lot of people balked when Garvin was announced for the HoF with Hayes/Gordy/Roberts, but I have no problem with it. Yeah it was obviously a Hayes call, but Garvin is good enough on his own to be a part of the group, and while the 90's Freebirds never eclipsed the 80's Freebirds, they were still a damn fun team.

Is it shit? I need to know if I should watch it or not.
As a Castlevania mark I have a feeling it will upset me.
I am not the person to ask. Like, I don't watch a lot of adult cartoonz. And I'm not super into Castlevania.
But after the first episode, I'm down to watch the other three.

Only when he defeats the #romanempire can we consider such blasphemy.I feel confident in saying this, in 2-3 years, he will be considered the GOAT:

when wrasslegaf has to accept the reality that either cody is good or dave overrates every okada singles match
oh its the latter.
Its how we end up with 6.25 * matches
