Pumped about NXT tonight. It's interesting if its true that they want to push NXT more and are slower in moving talent up. Though I think it was just a throaway line to not make Bo Dallas feel bad. I hope the more merchndise line wasn't lipservice though. Neville, Corey Graves, Kalista, Solomon Crowe, Enzo and Bayley deserve merchandise.
Corey Graves gloves that have STAY DOWN written on the knuckles. or a custom PUNK ROCK denim vest that already has all the patches and prefabricated tears and costs like $100
 
Watching an early PWG show from 2003 with an indie-riffic main event of Kaz, Punk & Joey Ryan vs Adam Pearce, Super Dragon & Colt. Not a great match, went on a bit too long and was a bit of a mess in places, but there was some good stuff here and there. Here's a few gifs...

Shitty lucha Punk;

Super Dragon murders Punk with a lariatoooo;

Punk reverses the Doomsday Device;

Super Dragon just drops Joey on his fucking head;

And then takes a real hard bump off the top from Kaz. Love his reaction, lol;

The show also featured a shitty, shitty Samoa Joe vs BJ Whitmer match. Whitmer's never been great, but goddamn did he suck the life out of this one.
 
DREAM - JOSE CANSECO vs HONG MAN CHOI - 2009

canseco_choi10xum4.gif

for those who never seen it or never heard of it, here it is. Canseco is one of the top baseball players of all time who pretty much called everyone out on being on steroids. that's all i know about him.

Hong Man Choi is a legit, mobile giant. 7'2, 350lb and agile enough to have a kickboxing and MMA career. huge dude, Canseco is a big guy and look how small he is next to him.

bell rings and shit, Jose actually hits a big right hand on the giant who probably tought it was a mosquito bite.

Jose is... doing well actually. doing side kicks and front kicks with the occasional looping right hand. but the he gets short jabbed and, if you look closely, you can pin point exactly the moment where Jose thinks to himself "what the fuck am i doing here?".

canseco_choi590pg9.gif

oh boy, look at that. Jose got "injured" while running away from Choi. how... convenient.

Jose then "falls" to the ground and gets punched till he finally taps to strikes. winner is Hong Man Choi. man oh man, Jose got some large monetary compensation for this and it only lasted till he actually got hit and said "fuck it". i love how his "injury" came from just running around, not actually getting hit, haha. coming soon, Minoru Suzuki goodness.

Shit I just realized there is something WWE could do to make me watch Thunder for the first time. If they put them all up before Saturday Night or Nitro. I hope they don't do this.

lol @ that Canseco fight

It just seems so random.

I'll give him some effort for actually putting up something resembling a fight.

Too bad he lasted less than two minutes though. lol

Neville's promo work has come a long way. He's easy to understand, too. He didn't used to be this articulate and clear. Good stuff.

Yo honestly, Renee Young is 5'5 and Neville is 5'10 according to Wiki, but he was SIGNIFICANTLY shorter than she was. What's going on?
