No Jacobs is writing for WWE as we speak and he's the one who took the powerbomb.

Well I was going to say if he was a writer for the WWE it would explain alot.
Writing for NXT, he took it like a champ.

Is he writing from a hospital bed?

Cameron is lucky she got as far as she did. And that wasn't even far at all.

WWE Network added new Collections for May.

One of those Collections?

He probably died watching Takeover Dallas if anything. 4/10 show.

There has to be a better way to make $10,000 a year.

 

[Sephzilla]

Let's see your grades. Not because I will discount your opinion, but because I'm genuinely interesting.

P.S. Go die.

P.P.S. jk xoxo

Zach......I think the network is changing you into a ruthless animal. We need to talk. I have a therapist who'll see you today.

Oh no, Zach isn't turning into Neo-Stro is he?

tbh I think ten grand is generous for a WWE writer.

More like Big Worm...... Fuck that, bad childhood memories 😦.

Speaking of which, this gives me another reason to give my weekly statement of, Farooq should've been WWF champion.

I wish there was tape of his promo from a show I went to in Anaheim in 1997. He was anti every race, it was so good. He had people super riled up. I don't even remember if he won the match or not.

 

[Zach]

I fixed your dumb grades, you dumb idiot.

Those kind of seem similar.

That picture, plus watching 97 WCW just bums me out even more to think about Sting being in the ring last year. His demeanor and presence is so good in that early crow Sting stuff.

 

[thefro]

Honestly, I never really saw them as heels as a kid because they were so cool. I'd have to go back to see myself.

WCW was different since most of their crowds would boo "cool heels" like Jericho. nWo depended on the town I guess, but a majority of the crowd booed them most of the time except for the stretch where they were really hot.

Definitely a more marky crowd than attitude-era WWF.

Well that's what happens you get stuck with Ahmed Johnson for like a year and then some guy called The Rock comes in and steals your thunder.

Those kind of seem similar.

NO NO I AM NOT LIKE YOU I AM A SPECIAL SNOWFLAKE. SETH GOT A B+!!!!!!!

Except for the part where he didn't wrestle for a year.

Best storyline of all time though. Even better than the Megapowers.

Pity it came to such a sticky end.

EDIT: Well, maybe not best but definitely most ambitious.

Dude is the most underrated character or than Goldust of that post new generation era. He knew how to draw heat like a motherfucker and you know what makes it even better? He played his role TOO real. Coming from a black home, the way he spoke and whipped his boys into shape was authentic as hell. Vince failed by not capitalizing on his hear with the crowd. He could've been the most hated guy with the title, only thing is, this was when the crowd still really believed so..... It may have been too risky(the hate, etc, etc).

Also, do you remember what month the show was?

[Sephzilla]

The only bad part of the Crow Sting vs NWO storyline was the part where Sting didn't beat Hogan clean as fuck.

 

[Dark Ninja]

I love that these guys can't handle jobbing. Give Zack Ryder a true professional the WWE Title to make them even more salty.

Ehhh, best is a huge reach.

Except for the part where he didn't wrestle for a year.

It's more in that him carrying that gimmick forward as a more regular sting just kind of pulls it down a bit. Even in that Starrcade match the moment he gets all yippy and does the splash it just kind of dragged down his luster. Having the ring fill with wrestlers, while i loved it as a kid, now looks like a bad move in terms of keeping up his aura.

 

[Fox318]

It seems crazy that Hogan was making that much and he still wouldn't want to job to Sting because Sting didn't have a tan.

 

[bjork]

Also, do you remember what month the show was?

WWF @ Anaheim, CA - Arrowhead Pond - June 28, 1997 (9,400; 8,400 paid)

Rockabilly pinned Flash Funk with the Shake, Rattle, & Roll neckbreaker

Farooq & Kama defeated Blackjack Windham & Blackjack Bradshaw when Kama pinned Barry Windham

Ken Shamrock defeated Jim Neidhart via submission with the ankle lock

Sable won a swimsuit contest also including Sunny, Marlena, and Chyna

WWF IC Champion Owen Hart & WWF European Champion Davey Boy Smith defeated the Legion of Doom and Henry & Phinneas Godwinn when Owen pinned Phinneas after hitting him with his own slop bucket

Vader pinned Goldust when Goldust failed an attempted bodyslam

Mankind defeated Hunter Hearst Helmsley via disqualification when Chyna interfered

WWF World Champion the Undertaker defeated Bret Hart and Steve Austin by pinning Hart with the chokeslam (Hart's in-ring return from injury after being out 2 months)

I never really had the whole, "I don't like him because he's a bad guy" thing as a kid. I liked people who looked cool and I played with on the games lol. While everyone liked Sting, I remember surfer sting and always thought he was a clown so it stuck with me and I didn't care much for him.

Just like Stone Cold, I didn't really like him tbh. Everyone in the room went for him while I went for the other guy.

Man, if I had a time machine, I'd go back to live 95-2002. Those were the glory ole days.

Yep, I was going to ask if that was the one. Maybe I can find footage of it.

I'd love to see it and see if it is as raw as I recall.

Doesn't not having a tan fit the character?

Cameron is lucky she got as far as she did. And that wasn't even far at all.

My son (in the Punk shirt) got to dance with Cameron, Naomi, and Broadus at a house show back in 2012, so I can't hate her too much.

Your son should've rolled Brodus up. He was vulnerable right then

 

[Tom Nook]

UGH!

Did his head hit the turnbuckle or THAT POLE!? Ouch!

 

[pantsattack]

I ordered that new Pentagon Jr. shirt. Not the new one, the new new one. It looks sick.

 

[bjork]

I haven't seen any non-RAW show in probably a decade, but do they still do the thing where they bring someone in from the crowd and have them be a ring announcer? If not, they should bring that back.

 

[Bluekaveli]

If you look hard enough, you can find the meeting they had discussing Brody's run in for WM I

The last three I've been to, not at all.

He should have rolled somebody up and got the 3 count

It's never to early to go into business for yourself

Broadus was way too big for The Boy to roll him up, but he probably could have done a running knee or pre-Reigns Superman Punch.

I was too busy creeping on the Funkadactyls from the front row.

 

[Angry Grimace]

No. This is not correct. He is kept on for his legal ability and has been a great fit.



Yup he's resetting, which should be good. Also got his first tattoo!

I mean, I can't say I remember which of the many podcasts Meltzer does it was when he said this, but do you have any proof?
