Noone gives a shit about TNA except news of it having new owners or it going out of business. No need to spoiler tag their results, especially Dixie Carter coming back as on air character.
This episode of Thunder had a 3 minute promo going over and putting over all the tag teams in the WCW contention for the tag titles. They put over Benoit's skill with Arn Anderson as the most versatile tag team wrestler of all time with his 5 reigns with 5 different wrestlers. They put over the Steiners as the greatest most dominant tag team in the sport when they were together, they put over Harlem Heat as one of the best tag teams and especially Booker, they put over Sting and Luger being both former world champions and former tag champions, and they put over Hall & Nash and their dominance since coming into the promotion and their ability to use Bischoff to get what they want. They put over Meng and Barbarian and Henning and Windham as savvy veterans
You see what I mean about WCW actually treating all their titles like they mattered

Haitch listening to the raw cut of Somoa Joe's theme.
Seems that getting kicked out of NXT carries a pretty harsh toll on a person.
All of the best underrated segments of WCW involve Disco Inferno for me. Him becoming a member of the reformed NWO after the finger poke of doom, him owing money to Tony Marinara, his music video, him just getting in the ring and dancing DURING matches.

He was a shining light.
Whatamark is funny and all, but I love the promos showing Kanyon and Raven's friendship. It is adorable. I can't wait to have it in HDee
That was a really good episode of Thunder. Even with the Torrie Wilson POV stuff.

My first thought, too.
I actually think Bo should get even more fat. Would work better with his character, might cover up how unintimidating he is on every level, and maybe he'd wrestle better in a fat guy brawler mode than as a skinny fat nothing.
He's evolving into Bray. He was only using 10% of his power.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I mean, sure, he could use some time in the gym, I guess.

DC has two things going for it; looks pretty, awesome to play. Plus, there's a ton of content. Best racer of this gen, easily.
M-Pro is underrated especially when they try something ambitious but so little of it appears online.

What's crazy to me is that there's less modern M-Pro available than there was even during the 90's. Japanese promotions really need to jump on board the internet streaming bandwaggon, even if it's just a VOD subscription service.

Dailymotion has somehow deleted my watch later list full of cool matches that I was totally going to get round to watching at some point, so it can suck a dick
Giant Baba's widow gave Akebono one of Baba's favorite cadillacs for busting his ass since coming back
shaka brah
Rollin in the 6 4
That exists with Nico Douga. Even then a lot of that stuff just stays within Japan.

Ah, that Nico Pro channel? They have a ton of stuff on there, really wish they'd open subscriptions to non-Japanese customers.
Ah Eva, all the talent of a corpse in the ring with double the stink.
I started watching TNA that year (at Lockdown) and the whole Aries stuff was so good. It was really well executed and a great moment.
Then they turned him heel and had him put Jeff Hardy over just because.
Also, the Aces and Eights had a lot of problems but the whole Bully Ray reveal and them going live was great. Lots of good momentum that they also couldn't capitalize. (And Aries should've been the champ until Bully instead of Aries of course).
Intercontinental Champion, André the Giant Memorial Battle Royal winner and Devils Favourite Something. Please show some respect.

She's clearly put in the work to get better, so I'm not gonna give her shit.
Arriving at green does not make an accomplishment.
New Day are good, but I'd argue Owens is the most captivating performer on current WWE TV.

I guess if Horizon 2 doesn't count since it saw a 360 release as well... I guess.
Hell, even Forza 5 (probably the worst of the series, compared to the leaps made with the others) is better than #ALRIGHTCLUB because Driveclub is just alright.
Yall gotta broaden your horizons. HOWEVER I guess it's time to do a Fave Five Racing Games
5. Need for Speed 3: Hot Pursuit PS1
4. Gran Turismo 2
3. Forza Horizon 2
2. Daytona 2001 Dreamcast
1. Outrun Coast 2 Coast - packed with content, this is THE OutRun of the ages and easily the best soundtrack of all racing games ever
F-Zero GX is fine, but can't crack that top 5. Same with F-Zero X. I enjoyed both of them a lot, but not as much as those up there. Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed is amazing, but it's just...it can't make it in. And it's better than every Mario Kart.
Fair point. New Day still get me for just being able to sit back and smile. Its the power of positivity!
Alright we doing this?
5. Sega Rally - The arcade machine that sucked down all my money. Still one of the few hold out machines you'll find around the place as well.
4. Mario Kart: DD - The best playing, sounding and feeling Mario Kart.
3. Need For Speed Underground 2 - I probably played this more than any PS2 game.
2. Gran Turismo 4 - The last truly great Gran Turismo
1. Burnout Paradise - Incredible base game that was supported to the level of a Valve multiplayer game. If someone asked me what my favorite PS360 game was this was it.

Grabbed a ticket to see this, mostly for Pentagod & Drago, should be weird seeing wrestling in the Royal Albert Hall;
It's agree to disagree time, because Forza's utterly worthless to me
Fave Five;
5. Rock n' Roll Racing
4. OutRun Coast 2 Coast
3. Burnout Paradise
2. Project Gotham Racing 2
1. Carmageddon II: Carpocalypse Now

I've never understood the love for Paradise :/ It's Burnout 3 and Revenge except without a snappy menu system that gets you in and out of races fast

Should still be a cool show, looks fun.
Carmageddon II huh? Man, it's been a WHILE. Did you ever try a Horizon game? If not that explains everything.
I'm grappling with omitting one of my favorites - Ivan "Ironman" Stewart's Off-Road. My god that game was good, as was RC Pro Am...

Haven't played any Horizon, but I guess I can see the open-road thing improving my enjoyment of it - that's the reason I loved the Test Drive Unlimited games, in spite of their numerous flaws.
Carmageddon II's not much of a racer, I admit - although you can complete levels by racing, I almost always did it by blowing up the other racers or running over all the pedestrians. The game's probably one of my top 5 of all time, I was utterly consumed by both Carmageddon & Carmageddon II, amazing games.
Probably buying Rare Replay just for RC Pro-Am. >_>

Really been liking what he's been doing with the IC title, but yeah, his programs have been shit.
