John Pollock on the LAW next week to review the ppv

 

[Deleted member 47027]

I'm a big fan of a barebones, no frills OP. Just like WCW in 1993. No frills.

 

[Sephzilla]

dmczaf should be your focus, he lives there. And so does Ryback.

Damn DM post if you're ok

Should have dedicated October to all the times wrestlers were destroyed with mindgames

You mean it isnt!?

 

[Zach]

It's a good OT, Brent.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

Oh
my
god

This build up for Wrestlemania with Shawn & Brett's iron match is insufferable. You can so clearly tell how much Vince loved shawn when you look back on it.

[Deleted member 47027]

2017, Year of the Mind Game.

 

[Sephzilla]

But Randy won so the mind games didnt work

Being there live and seeing this shit was such a bad head scratcher

 

[Sephzilla]

Bray should have won

 

[Fox318]

That worm shit made me embarrassed to be a wrestling fan.

Really? That was the line, "brother"?

 

[Sephzilla]

I would have thought everything about Taker vs Roman would have done that

 

[Anth0ny]

how many gimmicks did the house have? fireplace, walk-in closet, etc?

the whole 9 yards, brother. custom built closer organizer, custom entertainment centre, by GAWD what a house.

Congratulations.

As stated previously, please don't be like Suzuki and take being a lonely warrior tonight too far with this paycheck.

a nuru massage WAS on the list, just under "a bunch of sega saturn games"

 

[Fox318]

I was watching with some people trying to explain that wrestling can be great.

That spot they looked at me and said "why do you watch this shit?"

Then Brock and Goldberg at least made them say it could be good sometimes.

 

[newdayrocks]

2 spooky 4 me.

Oh, fair enough. I wouldn't watch wrestling with people who aren't into it unless it was something I'd seen before. "Anything can happen in the WWE" isn't a good thing anymore.

2 spooky 4 me.

Fuck. I scrubbed this from memory.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

Wow I'm late, good too see Zach ain't putting that money back into the promotion and especially not the production.

 

[Sephzilla]

2 spooky 4 me.

Three fully grown men fighting Cena in a cage can't stop him but a child with a microphone can

That feud lost me when they tried to turn the fans and children heel in order to explain why nobody was on Cena's side in that feud

 

[klonere]

It was a Make A Wish kid, Cena's one true weakness.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

I'm also shocked that Zach didn't drop a Halloween Havoc reference into the OP

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Cena's feud with Wyatt continued with a Last Man Standing match being set up for Payback on June 1, where Cena buried Wyatt under multiple equipment cases to win the match and end the feud.

Im pretty sure I told my story of honestly accidently getting a lonely warrior massage before.

The advice I give to anyone going to a massage parlour in a city is, when asked "are you here for business or pleasure?" dont assume they mean your reason for being in the city. When you answer "both", because I was working in the city and went to a concert, the outcome can be an awkward surprise.

Some say it should've been Halloween Havoctober.

True story: I made this thread in bed, half-asleep, and almost titled it November Wrasslin'. >_>

would have been a fitting start to botchtober

Did you accept your happy ending?

 

[miserable]

mind games?

 

[Zach]

I tip-toed into that Curb Your Enthusiasm thread to see if people are liking the new season. It seems they are. Looking forward to watching it soonish.

 

[klonere]

so is this Zach's version of the Stro OP where he made it all about the Soprano's

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Y'all gotta let Stro go.

He's free now. Legitimately shaking his way through Wrassleworld.

 

[Zach]

That doesn't make sense. Doink is wrestling-related.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

More observations from my 96-watch through:

Steiners are so over, it's insane how much they're loved. I also never realized that Scott was already so juiced up

Macho was definitely looking slimmer than his WWF run, so his bulk up is even more pronounced

 

[Sephzilla]

Lets no longer talk about banned forum members who actively contributed to how toxic this community used to be.

Is there any odds on Shane's gimmick for his Hell in a Cell match?

Scott was massive, but man that visual overhaul really drove it all home.

no more legitshook jiffs, either.

 

[Sephzilla]

I bet KO is going to be the guy going off a cell, not Shane

[TarpitCarnivore]

Eric Bischoff is a terrible announcer. He's too homer for wrestling

I bet KO is going to be the guy going off a cell, not Shane

I was actually thinking this.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Y'all ready for how hard Kebbins is gonna hit that ground? Mankind-esque levels of THUMP. It's gonna be gnarly and bad.

 

[Sephzilla]

They'll probably have an air cushion rigged up under the announce table like they did when Shane went off the cell. That is assuming KO doesn't miss the target.

ALTERNATIVELY

I could see KO setting up Shane on top of a table, climbing up the Cell, acting like he's about to jump off..... only to climb back down the cage and then give Shane a standing elbow drop

 

[Foggy]

Kevin Owens always takes the sick, dangerous spots.

It'll be a tandem fall.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

Ed Leslie as the Booty Man is atrocious and hilarious on so many levels. He keeps thinking he's getting over with the fans but it's just the fans cheering on Arn

I'd love this forever if it happened.

yeah, that's a dark area..

It's just been really fun to look back on an era you loved and see all the more obvious faults and flaws in the product, like Ed Leslie and Jim Duggan

I never, ever gave Duggan any shit because he reminds me of my uncle, a lot.

He was real bad in late WCW. I know. But I will pretend to have not seen him there.

I'm still on the tail end of S1. It's funny so far, but it looks like it was shot on a handheld camcorder.

That's because it pretty much was. Season 1 was 2000, lol.

 

[Tagyhag]

2 spooky 4 me.

Oh my goodness, I mean, it's stupid no matter what.

But why in the everloving fuck would Vince think handing the creepy ghost child a handheld microphone, instead of just hiding one in his robe, is the right thing to do?

It's like if the Grudge girl followed you around while you're on the bus, but she had to pay the fare first.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

As another 'a-ha' to how forgettable the Wyatt's have been: Remember the Compound

 

[Fox318]

Man listening to the lapsed fan go into the mindset and the thinking of Vince and HHH back then really helps understand his mindset today.
