Juvi and Essa Rios are the same person, Essa actually grew up though.

 

[Data West]

Psicosis is like a 75% too. I loved Psicosis as a kid.

 

[Zach]

Do you guys think Vince would even bother buying TNA's library?

This is discussed sometimes, and I barely know what TNA is, but obviously yes. They want everything significant.

It's where former WCW wrestlers go.

 

[charsace]

you mean like Bryan, Orton, and Triple H?

It's almost as if no one buys him as legit regardless

They burned through those guys. Bryan and Orton the WWE burned through quickly. They tried to prolong the use of Triple H and that ended at Wrestlemania. There was no one else left that has a storied history except for Cena who they won't job out the Roman and Sheamus who no one really cares about.

AJ was like the only option outside of somehow getting Punk back.

 

[Zach]

Psicosis is like a 75% too. I loved Psicosis as a kid.

I don't understand this percentage thing. Help me understand so I can play.

And I loved Psychosis as a kid. Mostly because of that sweet guillotine leg drop in Revenge. >_>

He's still good as an adult, though. Real-life leg drop, too.

 

[Data West]

He has a bunch of great matches in Mexico. He's probably one of the most underrated luchadores of his generation. Kind of just a tier below Rey in WCW but never got quite as big as LA Park in Mexico after WCW. He definitely had some big name feuds and matches though.

 

[Zach]

Tell me about the percentages, Dato! Is 100% the theoretical perfect wrassler? 0% being Crush?

And what did La Parka do in Mexico that made him a top star? I love La Parka in WCW, but it's funny to think of him being a top guy.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

jesus christ

he looked so promising back then

And then WWE made him do a Mexican stereotype gimmick where he rode lawn mowers with two other people

"They looked so promising until WWE got a hold of them" is far too common a tale. With him the drugs made things worse, and the WWE money probably enabled that

 

[SallyIsNow]

No one tell Zach. He's a dork. Just like klonere.

 

[Zach]

Who are you, OwensIsNow? Ugh. I hate that. Capital I. C'mon.

 

[UberTag]

Do you guys think Vince would even bother buying TNA's library?

On its own I'm not so sure that he would.

I think the best chance of it happening would be for ROH to buy TNA's library first and for them to have their library sold to the WWE at some point with TNA coming along in a package deal. That's up to Sinclair, though.

 

[Angry Grimace]

When it comes down to it, Vince will turn Sami heel in his "feud"

Spoiler

3 month squash

with Roman.

Sami is like a demographic wet dream; he's an Arabic-speaking Syrian who can cut promos in perfect unaccented English, he looks and wrestles like Daniel Bryan if he was Vince's preferred height and he's already over with most of the demographics that watch the show. He's even more likely to get the title than Owens is and the scuttlebutt I heard was that they came around on how good Owens is.

Vince doesn't give a fuck.

 

[SallyIsNow]

I'm aware my username is awful. But that doesn't change the fact that you're a dork.

 

[Zach]

I'm aware my username is awful. But that doesn't change the fact that you're a dork.

It'd be more fun if I knew who you were. Right now you're just a guy calling me a dork.

Woah woah woah dude, don't act too tough around here.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Woah woah woah dude, don't act too tough around here.

I thought that was our job here?

 

[Professor Beef]

Zach thinks that just because he grades some stanky old wrestling, he can get sympy

 

[Zach]

I'm known to be tougher than a $2 steak.

 

[Bluekaveli]

I thought that was our job here?

That's my job! This is my job! My gimmick!

I'm known to be tougher than a $2 steak.

And goofier than a pet coon.

Work shoot, work work shoot work.

 

[Zach]

But seriously, are you a previous user or just some guy? >_>

😳

 

[Zach]

Oh well. I tried, strobogo. I tried.

 

[Bluekaveli]

But seriously, are you a previous user or just some guy? >_>

He's not a good guy, he's not a bad guy, he's just some guy. Good job Zachary.

 

[SallyIsNow]

The old guys always come back to bury the young guys. Blu and Zach need to go.

 

[Zach]

I want to apologize to "Some Guy" OwensIsNow if I came off as curt. I'm caught up in this b-ball game and I don't know what's happening right now. I'm in a whirlwind of excitement and the dream of a championship.

Godspeed, dorksss.

WWE moving to India ASAP

 

[Deleted member 47027]

i've probably asked before and forgotten because my brain in super dumb these days, but what happened to juvi? he was gearing up to be a cruiserweight on the level of mysterio in the late 90s. the ladies loved him because he was cute, everyone else loved him because he nearly killed himself when he was in the ring. the latino jeff hardy of his era perhaps, minus a little of the charisma but he had enough to matter

WWE moving to India ASAP

Well according to their investor calls they have 8 billion fans in India.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

By far the weirdest page I've seen

You can't kill what's already dead, boy!


Fuck okc. Golden State will make the greatest come back of all time now, rest assured.

Weirder than Matt Hardy's current hook?

We shall see. I'm not counting them out.

Golden St= Cena?

"A resurgent Brian Knobbs" is not a phrase I want to hear, Tony Schiavone.

But hey, this Malenko/Benoit vs. Raven/Saturn vs. Mysterio/Kidman feud is actually pretty fun.

So who's your fav 5 for that WCW year?

 

[Zach]

For early '99? Crap, I dunno. I'm going to sleep. Berlyn's got that #1 spot on lock, though.

How about 98? I posted my 97 fav 5 earlier this morning.

 

[Anth0ny]

holy fuck

 

[notworksafe]

Alex Wright won the Rumble? Goddamnit.

 

[Bluekaveli]

It shall be interesting, this is Cena v Punk basically.

 

[Cagey]

Meltzer claimed Eva Marie was getting a huge push once, I'm gonna take it with a grain of salt.

I've never said anything positive about Buff Bagwell as a face


And Big E. And Ryback.

um er things change

Meltz is part of a vast WWE conspiracy to leak that wrestlers the internet is predisposed to dislike if they knew the company supported them are, in fact, in line for huge pushes, so those wrestlers get heat way early in the build and then get massive reactions.

Mark was right. Bunch of puppets.

 

[SallyIsNow]

Cena kicking out of a piledriver is worse than anything Roman has done.

Spoiler

for now.

 

[Fox318]

Kinda crazy Ambrose jumped from the top of the cage only for y2j to kick out.

 

[Data West]

Cena kicking out of a piledriver is worse than anything Roman has done.

Spoiler

for now.

Look at Cena's neck. I can't not buy that dude kicking out of a piledriver

 

[Bluekaveli]

Cena kicking out of a piledriver is worse than anything Roman has done.

Spoiler

for now.

The piledriver in this generation should be equivalent to Mick Foley being thrown off the hiac.

 

[Alucard]

Catching up on WWE a bit. Watched the 4-way from Extreme Rules, which was excellent. High drama with every competitor playing their part.

Watching Raw...Seth's return was wonderful. He seems rejuvenated and like he's been practicing his acting chops.
