Public service announcement:

Goldberg versus Diamond Dallas Page for the WCW title at Halloween Havoc 1998 is remarkable (and thousands of people didn't get to see the finish because the pay-per-view overran and the feed cut out so the match was replayed on Nitro the next night).

 

[Professor Beef]

Those things are amazing. Orange Dr. Pepper? MADNESS!! Also, I'd like to thank America personally for Five Guys - I've had better burgers at 'gourmet' places up London, but I've never had a better fast food burger.

You're quite welcome, Bootaaay.

 

[FallingEdge]

Orange soda is the supreme drink

It isn't even a contest. It is by far, the best soda.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

The days of Big Daddy are gone. They ain't never comin' back man.

Big Daddy would have been your favourite wrestler, if you were cultured.

 

[FlammableD]

You're quite welcome, Bootaaay.

I'll salute that.

Breet hart interview from the Law snippets

POSITIONING OF DANIEL BRYAN AT THIS YEAR'S WRESTLEMANIA:


COMPARISONS OF BRYAN/ROMAN REIGNS TO HART/KEVIN NASH IN 1994/95:


RANDY SAVAGE GOING INTO THE HALL OF FAME:

 

[FlammableD]

Big Daddy would have been your favourite wrestler, if you were cultured.

I saw him finish someone once with a back body drop, and then he sat on them as they fell, it was really smooth and I wish a big guy would pick it up.

EDIT: dammit boots etc etc

Are there any decent podcasts out there of people talking wrestling? I'm super tired of the Jericho etc stuff and any fan made stuff is just 3 heavy breathing guys with bad Skype connections.

I need something to listen to while I grind out my Musou game

This is the worst post in WrassleGAF history.

so how will they top the shitshow that was Raw last week?

 

[Seraphis Cain]

Wrestling-related highlights of the weekend: Met Jim Cornette, got his autograph, listened to his Q&A (which was great, told a hilarious Booker T story that I'll post later), rode an elevator with Greg Valentine, saw Ted DiBiase several times, walked past the Nasty Boys booth and LITERALLY NOBODY CARED that they were even there, saw Goldberg a couple times...think that's it for wrestling stuff. Fun times.

These are not too bad for zero calories.

But I can only have a little before I get sick of the taste.

These are good

HAHAHA holy shit that would be the greatest thing ever

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Sunny talked about one once, but he had a lot on his plate so it never took off. It'd be interesting to see one start, but I wouldn't really want to piss and moan about WWE every week.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

This Gary Hart video is really dope.

The only way a podcast would work is to keep it FnP and full of positive vibes. That being said...Roman Reigns impressions is a must.

Alucard and I could make a french wrasslegaf podcast where we spend an hour insulting everyone in the thread every week!

yes

Just found out one of our IT's name is Dwayne Johnson.

Our old printer techs was named Chris Benoit

Don't post much, but needed somewhere to vent my shame. Totally didn't want to support these carnies, but the rumor of Sting being at my home town Raw broke me. Bought a ticket on my lunch break. Please tell me this was not a total waste of cash. At least it was a cheap ticket.

Give in, enjoy yourself and hope Sting appears!

Japanese wrestling guys, is Jay White an Irish dude? Can't find any info on him

You'll have a fun time. It's fun!

Japanese wrestling guys, is Jay White the Irish dude that Devitt brought over with him?

Nope, he's a New Zealender scouted by Fale, but was working in the UK before New Japan took interest in him.

I paid to shake Steve's hand, so I can't judge you.

 

[British Monsoon]

Bahgawd, I forgot how amazing the TheszCast is. Laser really outdid himself with those JR & Bret Hart episodes.

at the end of the day it's still wrestling...have fun.

Damn I wish the WWE did house shows where I'm at ...I know it's a college town but still....

Huh, apparently WWE are hiring Jimmy Jacobs to be a part of their creative team! Great news for Jimmy if this pans out, people are always saying what a great mind he has for the business and he's had a lot of ups and downs in his career, so nice to see him get his due.

 

[Aeternus Malum]

Is anyone believing this rumor that Jimmy Jacobs signed to be on WWE's creative team?

That would be awesome. Age of the Fall reunion!

Forget Age Of The Fall, this was the best Jimmy Jacobs:

That shit was back in 2007...before social media was huge.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Age of the Shit. Stop wishing for those bygone years, friends.

Were all of the storylines involving Jimmy Jacob his idea, as they were pretty interesting.

Man, I loved me some Lacey too.

Sounds like such an unlikely rumor to be true when you consider that WWE only ever hires Hollywood writers. People really think they'd go on to hire an indie wrestler as a writer?

They hired Drake Younger as a ref.

Who knows if this is true but I sure hope it is.

 

[Kaladin]

I imagine he had input. The good Jimmy Jacobs stuff was when Sapolsky was with Ring of Honor, and Sapolsky learned about everything he knows from Paul Heyman.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

You're right. I don't know what they were thinking. They should have had that Hollywood writer as a ref!

*big boot*

EDIT: It's still weird to me seeing him as a ref

 

[Serpentine]

Scum reunion?

they do have Rhyno and Owens

So if this hits on the next NXT live special...
