[Nocturnowl]

am I fuckin' going over

Look at this guy, vanishes for the year (wise move) and just turns back up at Mania season expecting to be put over like some kind of legend.

Wait, I guess that does mean you're going over, or at least getting a WM payday.

He was ready to tag in

I heard Holm went out John Cena style.

H.H. Holmes, America's first serial killer and the original Triple H?

I read this think, "How do these nerds know my real last name?"

Guess you all have to pretend Sasha's a Nazi now.

I have no idea why Meltzer covers MMA and Wrestling at the same time its pretty random when you think about it

Ain't no tagging in shoots.

You either shoot, or you get shoot'd.

Extra fuck money?

I just finished watching NJ Cup Day One. Was pretty surprised to see Fale win! What do I need to go watch to see why Will Osprey is joining CHAOS? I'm watching his one match that's on NJPW World against Okada right now.

Like they don't even separate the content at all. Wrestling Observer podcasts have a mystery amount of MMA content to sit through.

 

[klonere]

For all you nerds who like to talk about works and shoots, here's a match that starts as a work and very quickly becomes a shoot, sliding back to being a worked shoot and then finishing off as a work.

It's fucking BRUTAL and out of control. Almost hard to watch honestly.

Oh and the amount of no selling is just unbelievable. Dragon Gate put to shame. Cornette would die watching it.

Man I can't stand Taz on commentary he is such a fuckboi

PROGRESS has a trial: https://twitter.com/ThisIs_Progress/status/706468894396063744

Will main events Chapter 20 vs Jimmy Havoc, 21 vs Mark Haskins, 22 vs Paul Robinson, 23 vs Mandrews and 25 vs Marty Scurll. All good bets.

The Okada match is what got Okada pushing for Ospreay to join Chaos. He also had another great match with Scurll here: https://rpwondemand.pivotshare.com/media/high-stakes-2016/39848

What wcw wrestler left around uncensored 1997? Mean Gene keeps asking me to call the hotline at find out.

I guess he's a lazy sob

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I just recently played WCW Nitro on PS1 and It does not hold up. But then I realized it was WCW Thunder that was the game that I rented when I was little not Nitro.

 

[Tagyhag]

Man I can't stand Taz on commentary he is such a fuckboi

I'd still prefer the Michael/Taz duo to the shit trio that we currently have.

 

[korly]

Reminder that Yukes owned New Japan and couldn't even do that right

Valve should make a wrestling game

My dream is for Namco to make a wrestling game. Have Harada lead the team, and have Armor King/Jaycee/etc fighting the stars of NJPW.

I have no idea why Meltzer covers MMA and Wrestling at the same time its pretty random when you think about it

They have a tendency to overorganize in some non-intuitive ways, and not organize enough in others. Kind of like how the podcasts all have non-descriptive titles and aren't divided according to subject, yet the board has mountains of granular subforums. The result is this tremendous content mound where you have to either accept you will miss a lot of info, or listen to / read tons of unrelated stuff.

MMA is a basically shoot version very of pro wrestling so it makes since.

 

[korly]

Just started watching NJ Cup Day Two. Does Jay White wrestle David Finlay on every single NJPW show, or does it just feel that way?

March 97' I couldn't recall who that would be.

 

[Man God]

The Road Warriors? Hawk specifically.

I saw them on raw before the ppv. I'd be so pissed if that's who it was if I called

 

[Man God]

I think its too early in the year for Jeff Jobber, unless he had a six month no compete clause.

 

[sf2fanatic]

The Road Warriors? Hawk specifically.

Had to be. Didn't they have a match at either Mania or SS that year

 

[DMczaf]

They worked WM13 HEAT!

 

[Bluekaveli]

Idk they were on Raws in late Feb

I saw them on raw before the ppv. I'd be so pissed if that's who it was if I called

I don't think so but that wouldn't be too bad

I think its too early in the year for Jeff Jobber, unless he had a six month no compete clause.

I'd feel sorry for anyone if that was it lol!

 

[Zach]

My first guess would be Jeff Jarrett, but I honestly don't know.

 

[DMczaf]

Are we speculating on 19 year old scoops, brother ??

 

[half a moon]

Nah JJ was in the 4 horseman tag teaming with Mongo then

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Call the hotline number. Maybe it's still up.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Good Looking out friend.

 

[Zach]

Always.

Dark days.

Their argument is that they are fundamentally the same thing; you have two people who are going to fight and if done well, you're going to want to see it, work or shoot.

My argument is that one is more like comic books and one is more like a war documentary. Yes, people are doing battle, but the delivery is completely different.

 

[half a moon]

This one is censored saying it's unavailable. I saw a few that weren't. I haven't tried to call one yet

Coward.

tweet at Mean Gene maybe he remembers

You mean 1-900-909-9900?

That's 1-900-909-9900.

 

[DMczaf]

Who has the Gamepro Tips hot line??

 

[Dark Ninja]

Anyone ever order anything from the WWF catalog that 90s merch was top notch stuff.

 

[Fox318]

I love that to train for what is essentially ballet in the modern wwe people are practicing shooting.

 

[sf2fanatic]

222-2222.

Ordered a Bret Hart shirt and sunglasses

 

[slightconfuse]

Those hotlines must have made a lot of money
