The thirst in those buildings when Susumu takes his shirt off is ridiculous.

Also, I just read that Alex Shelley is out of the Super Jr's with a shoulder injury. Fuck. That makes the semi-finals for the iPPV;

KUSHIDA vs Taichi
Taguchi vs Ricochet

Eh....fucking
Taguchi's
winning it, isn't he?

Ask the real question here. How many of you won't get banned by the end of e3?

Sunny getting banned is a given, of course.

I never post, so how could I get banned?

Today is my last day of work. I don't have another job lined up but I'm suppose to get a job interview where my nephew works at "soon". Part of me wants to cut a promo on the way out but I still need the reference.

It's really popular with women. Sort of makes it the wrestling equivalent of My Little Pony now that I think of it.

Pretty much all the Japanese wrestling promotions have been popular with women, especially since the joshi industry died down.

Oh god, that "No Final Fantasy 15 or Kingdom Hearts 3 news, but here's XII Lightning Collection for PS4/XB1" news is horrible.

I'd rather they announce nothing. It'd be like "The following showing of NXT Takeover has been cancelled. Instead, please enjoy this dramatic re-creation of the Kennel from Hell match"
 
So All Japan is dead, NOAH is on life support (and could get bought out by NJPW any day now), Dragon Gate's stock has heavily fallen, Wrestle-1 is too new to care about, and IGF is fuck Inoki.

Congratulations Bushiroad. You are the Vince McMahon of Japan.

DDT still lives!

So do the random joshi companies.

But Japan's basically Dragon Gate and NJPW these days.

Not sure why they would even waste manpower on remastering those, I thought 13-2 and 3 were pretty much flops. The original I didn't think was that bad, well at least the little I played of it.

A dramatic recreation of HiaK has the potential to be good. There's enough there to write a story around. I think you meant "Enjoy this replay of Hell in a Kennel in its entirety."

True, you're right. More "Kennel in Hell... Now upscaled to 1080p!!!" rather than dramatic recreation.

Wow. The first half was pretty trash, but things picked up in the second half. WarGames specifically was amazing. So intense and inspired. A filthy, bloody war. It was good for a full letter grade increase, which keeps the B streak alive in 1992! Woo!
 
TNA should release a DVD of all the terrible episodes over the years that made prominent reviewers swear off Impact. There's got to be at least a dozen so-bad-they-make-you-question-your-sanity episodes, well enough to fill a DVD.

I'm not even going to attempt here when E3 goes live. I'm sparing myself the headache; if anything I'll discuss stuff on the alternate chat where most of us will be inhabiting during the server struggle.

Let's challenge ourselves to not post gifs for 24 hours.

Personal challenge accepted.

1980p vs 720p has to be one of the most annoying feuds ever.

Granted if I had both consoles I'd buy the better version, but the the importance to the average audience is negligible.

We still can't even get out of SD TV era, which kind of annoys me, but its' reality.
