Only 2 Nitro's at the Miami arena? I find that hard to believe. I think I was at this Nitro in 99. I remember it being pretty boring. http://www.profightdb.com/cards/wcw/nitro-4253.html

Not too long after I went to a WWF house show. I remember Kurt Angle being there and Austin was heel at this point. I believe main event was a cage match. It was fun. Did not go to another wrestling show until RAW in 2014 in Miami which was actually pretty decent. Even if it was 3 hours. Could had been even better if it was 2 hours...

Then I went to an NXT house show with my buddy in 2015 at WBP, then to the Rumble earlier this year, then went to another NXT house show in Miami earlier this year. NXT house shows are the best. Its great to see the established stars at that show like Bayley, Sami, Corbin and etc but also nice to see the 'up and comers' like El Sombra, Rich Swann, etc.

I do wish I live in the Orlando area... I would watch all those NXT house shows. And maybe go to Full Sail to watch NXT TV...

Breaking up edge & Christian reeks of suckatude. That's one of the best signs I've ever seen, they even taped 3 signs top to bottom to make it.
 
Theme of the Day:

Post the card from your first WWE live event.

My first.... and only WWE live event. With a line-up like this, I can't understand why.

The only parts I remember are the Hitman/Flair and Taker/Shango matches (Shango set a firework off in Taker's face). I remember Repo Man and Max Moon being there but not their opponents.

WWF @ London, England - Earls Court - February 4, 1993
Virgil defeated Repo Man
Rick Martel defeated Max Moon (sub. for Marty Jannetty)
Bam Bam Bigleow defeated the Big Bossman
The Nasty Boys defeated WWF Tag Team Champions Ted Dibiase & IRS via disqualification
The Headshrinkers defeated the Bushwhackers
The Undertaker defeated Papa Shango
WWF World Champion Bret Hart defeated Ric Flair

I'm more excited to see Lesnar at UFC than I am seeing him in the WWE.
Naturally. There's spectacle involved. He might not win. He's going to do more than just suplex his opponent. Shots to the balls are illegal. All sorts of things make this unpredictable and exciting unlike most everything the WWE does.

Anything can happen in the UFC! (Remember when this used to be somebody else's slogan?)
 
He dropped out when they told him he would have to make Casey jones look strong.

Looks like he auditioned for it, but they went with Sheamus.

"I just assumed he's a bigger dude, so they gave it to the big guy," Punk said, via The Chicago Tribune. "It makes sense. They were looking for two big, muscly bouncer types. (Sheamus) fits the role."
 
I fucking hated this Perry Saturn shit as a kid but this is funny as hell now. I eight the garbage can.


AHA!

Taker's stalker is King Mabel, he talks about power and Taker had a crazy feud with him in 95. Also he tried to hit on Tori when she was with Kane so he figured he will get even by taking Taker's wife now.

Brock will be on ESPN at 10am tommorrow:

Tomorrow Brock Lesnar joins me in studio for an exclusive interview in the 10am ET hour of @SportsCenter #SC FaceToFace on ESPN.

Probably will announce his opponent as well.

Rumor has it that Punk will fight at that event.

CM Punk will fight on a UFC card potentially sponsored by the WWE.

I've mentioned mine before, but it was at the town's minor league baseball field and the dugouts were separated by good guys and bad guys. They had a concession stand in center field, and HBK was signing autographs prior to the show. Someone asked him how much he bench pressed and he said 500, and the newest magazine was (I think) Lawler sitting at a table for some King of the Ring coverage or something?

WWF @ Lake Elsinore, CA - July 27, 1995 (3,300)
Adam Bomb defeated Rad Radford
Waylon Mercy defeated the 1-2-3 Kid
WWF Women's Champion Alundra Blayze defeated Bertha Faye
WWF World Champion Diesel & WWF IC Champion Shawn Michaels defeated IRS (sub. for Psycho Sid) & Tatanka
Fatu defeated Henry Godwinn
WWF Tag Team Champions Owen Hart & Yokozuna defeated Lex Luger & Davey Boy Smith
The Undertaker defeated Kama in a casket match

Only 5 dead guys on the card, and my friend and I got the thumbs up from Owen for being like the only two dudes cheering for him. Good times.
