I was going to ask which wrestler had the most tag title reigns with different partners and figured it was Kane, but I discovered it wasn't

The winner is always the Showster
 
I've never read a post where anyone is excited for anything. Everything is doom and gloom, or uninteresting and "crap".

Let's have some positivity once in a while guys.

If that happens, curious to what it brings. Cena/Balor vs the Club in a 3 on 2 handicap match? Or for some reason a Cena vs Balor vs Styles triple-threat. The latter seems like a big enough thing to do for Summerslam.

Or just stack the odds for the Club to start? Maybe they're going to dominate SD and go for all the titles (whether they succeed or not.) Then later on they can do their reverse version of the NJPW-angle and have Finn lead them.

You guys ever watch football and see a kicker who has to make the game winning kick? You can always look into his eyes and see if hes nervous or not. Usually, if they are, they miss the kick.

This is the same look im getting from Hunt here. Lesnar looks like hes not even worried. Meanwhile, Hunt is gonna hurt his neck looking up at Brock.

Incredible pre-fight analysis right here, Gurry. Brock does have that look in his eyes.
 
FUCK I'm so far behind King of Gate that I didn't even include motherfucking Shingo Takagi, arguably the best complete wrestler in the world in 2016, Akira Tozawa, Eita, and Big R Shimizu.

And picking five means I can't include Jimmy Rave, Yuji Okabayashi, Fenix, Pentagon, Jeff Cobb/Matanza, Ricochet, Will Ospreay, Marty Scurll, AJ Styles, or Kevin Owens.

There's a lot of good wrestling out there.

I was at a strip club for my 21st birthday in 2001 in San Francisco, CA. It was a grimy joint but my friends wanted to take me there and a famous porn star was going to be there too. As one stripper was about to give me a lap dance in the dance room, I notice a hulking man walk into the room with blond hair and rocking shades at 1:00 in the morning! As he gets nearer, I realize it's freaking Scott "Big Poppa Pump" Steiner. It was around the time his contract with AOL-Time Warner expired and WWE didn't immediately bring him over for their failed WCW/ECW Invasion angle so he was a free agent, I believe.

Only a few strippers recognized him and I was definitely the only guy there who knew who he was, being a huge wrestling fan at the time. The place had a strict policy of only one dancer per session, per person, but he got 3 of the hottest dancers there all to himself, including the one porn star, at the same time and they hollered "Big Poppa Pump" to him so everyone could hear! I was a few feet away from him and couldn't help but look his way instead of the dancer in front of me but she understood because she recognized him, too. After the lap dance I got, I sat there waiting for an opening to approach the Big Bad Booty Daddy, even though I've long heard of his loose-cannon reputation. It turns out, he caught me staring at him and yells out, "Hey, do you wanna fuck me or something?! There are other places you can go for that shit!"

I must have subconsciously been asking for a death wish because I immediately blurted out, "No man, it's not like that, I just can't believe I'm seeing the Big Poppa Pump right here in SF!" He stops the dancers and whispers something to them, looking pissed off before he stands up and walks right towards me! I stay seated, wondering what the hell I just got myself into. He stands right in front of me, still with his shades on and then proceeds to flex and says, "Who's the man?!" I'm like, "Uh, obviously, you are, you got the largest arms in the world." He says, "Damn right. You're all rright, boy!" He sits next to me and says something about being told these were the best strippers in town but that he's fucked ECW groupies that looked better than "these hooches". I laugh nervously as if I were Ray Liotta laughing at Joe Pesci's jokes in "Goodfellas" but he was cool with it. He then gets up to leave and I tell him I hope WWE picks him up so he can show the world he's the best in the business, yeah, I really kissed up to him. He turns around and tells me to stay tuned and then leaves to go to the "Champagne Room". I was about to rejoin my friends and tell them of my encounter but then the same 3 dancers who gave Steiner a dance came up to me and told me they were giving me a dance and that it was on Steiner! He hooked me up! Big Poppa Pump WAS my hook-up that night! He was way cooler than his reputation, that's for sure. Great night.

Vader is really incredible.

I can go to any 2016 match that's about flips and SOMEBODY will namedrop 'Dur I bet Vader hates this'. People are talking about Vader in 2016 and all it took was one tweet. The man is a genius at working the 'smart marks'.

People were already talking about Vader in 2016 and all it took was a TNA match in 2015

I knew I liked your opinions for a reason, Data.

Did they have a follow-up to Hideki Suzuki scrapping with Yasufumi Nakanoue in that BJW tag match from June?

Him and Daichi teamed up against Uto(Suzuki's partner in the original match) and Nakanoue. It's pretty clear they're doing some UWF, Takeda vs Hash style booking iwth Suzuki. His whole thing for the past 2 years had been that he's disrespectful and doesn't think anyone is on his level.

I was going to move on from my Data West Stalker gimmick, but now he's talking about Vader.

Pitter-patter. Pitter-patter.
 
I posted in the Toronto thread as well but I thought I would post here also.

Survivor Series presale starts tonight at 10:30pm. I think I have the presale code. Hope it's right, I'm not actually at the event tonight so I don't know. :/
 
Watched a bit of NXT and I really like The Revival. They're doing some classic tag stuff that you never see anymore. The whole distract the ref for a team advantage thing just doesn't happen then same way anymore, but they do it so well.
