Going to watch Halloween Havoc '93, simply for that ridiculous cage match they have.

Theory:

Royal Rumble 2015 was one of the worst booked pushes of all time

 

[Kaiterra]

How is that a theory?

Also I hope at least one of you keeps rocking the Alex Wright avatar after time's up.

The royal rumble has been shit for waaaaaay too long now.

 

[Dick Justice]

Absolutely majestic.

Hey Aiii

When Reigns told the audience to sit down, drink their beer, and shut up on Raw, that felt like the most natural, comfortable thing he's ever said on screen.

G.O.A.T.

 

[avengers23]

Viper's got a bit of attitude, but she seems like such a nice person haha. Both Nia and Viper could do with watching a TON of Aja and Bull matches, tbh.

Andrea is a more convincing badass than Viper or Nia.

It's my favorite time of the year: WCW Road Wild!

-_-

Oh, good. It's the Insane Clown Posse.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

Sorry, I meant I was going to watch Halloween Havoc 91. This card is stacked!

Which year? If it's ICP, I think you may have already seen the Karl Malone and DDP vs Dennis Rodman and Hulk Hogan match. And before that, Jay Leno!

 

[Aiii]

Meanwhile I'm watching the Goldberg collection, DDP vs World Champion Goldberg is up, so good.

I love when they made Goldberg's entrance so long that they had to play his entrance theme twice.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

Camera on the ref's head for Chamber of Horrors...this is god damn genius for 1991. How did we go from these camera angles (they're really good for this match) to SHAKY CAM?

 

[Zach]

1999. I've seen some stuff.

P.S. Loving all of the WCW chat, guys. Keep it up.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

I think we need to start WCWednesday. Only talk for the entire day has to be related to WCW

Except for Blue, you just keep doing you

 

[Aiii]

Maybe we can do a coordinated WCW rewatch, start with the first Nitro or something and watch one episode (incl. PPV's) a week.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

We could just pick up wherever Zach is

I like it. But most will not go for it.

You guys should totally do that. I would even be tempted to jump in, but that would be insane of me. Surely there are some communities that do something like that, what with the advent of the Network.

We could just pick up wherever Zach is

I don't recommend it.

 

[miserable]

Apologies for the phone-camera quality, but from August 1993, a review for the Commodore 64 tie-in game. I'll try and get a decent set of pics later on:

man, I had a beat'em'up game on C64 with a Hogan-looking dude. can't remember the name tho

This could be a weekly thing, some other communities already do that sort of stuff

we need a booker

 

[UberTag]

People often just get beaten down, injury angle, off you go.

To write off Roman with no mention is just ludicrous.

The phantom write-off approach they took on Smackdown this week.
Having Roman's apology tacked on with the official WWE.com release of his suspension.
Conveniently slotting it in between his #1 contender match and his PPV main event.

All of these things are only contributing to the existing narrative that he's given preferential treatment so they had best be prepared to face the consequences from their hostile and toxic fanbase for it.

 

[Guzim]

I'm disappointed he won't be making the spaghetti.

Who betta than imbask?

Who betta than imbask?

I don't know shit about WCW because I had a nice childhood, and i'd probably go the illegal streaming route which wouldn't be appreciated by mods here

Whomever it is needs a Bill Watts avatar.

It's like WWE, but when everything's suddenly done right. Bizarro World indeed.

Hope Bryan is worth a shit on commentary. He was godawful on Tough Talk. Hope it isn't related, skillset-wise.

Awesome

 

[Conrad Link]

The return of Sasha Banks was more confusing than anything else. Off TV forever then just randomly comes out and poses with Paige and the commentators are screaming I CAN'T WAIT FOR THAT MATCH!!

Ok then?

These idiots can't do anything right.


Edit: Apparently they can! Daniel Bryan and Mauro Ranallo on comentary!! Woo!

Also lolRoman.

She's been on Main Event and Superstars pretty consistently over the past few months.

BUT I HOPE FOR COMMENTARY HE'S GOOD

Ranallo will be doing the lion's share as it is, so things are good.

Just listen to those puns, how can you even remotely imagine he'd be unbearable, Sunny?

The times he did commentary on PWG were fun but that's a whole different kettle of fish.

You just had to work one in. I like puns. They're cheesy, sure - but they make me feel grate.

I know I'm late to the chop party, but I just watched that Fortune Dream 3 main event and you guys were right, it was awesome.I loved every minute of it!

maybe i should watch more of this Yuji Hino cat.
(also, Shiozaki is stupid sexy handsome)
