Natayla sucks. Deal with it. Everyone was fooled by her heritage and SAYING that she was good. She's done absolutely zero to show her alleged great talent. She's marginally better than the normal Diva. People bought into her not being some bikini model that Johnny Ace found in a bikini magazine. She's not good at all and in the last few Bella/Nattie matches, she'd been clearly out worked by a Bella.

Wonder if I can get Stro to touch Ring Ka King Season 1 (and only) after WCW ends.

I think Natalya used to be good. She's had good matches and was in good condition for a diva (the thing I notice most about WWE divas, so many are so weak and nonathletic). She even had good matches with AJ on SMS and Kaitlyn on NXT this year. But she seems to have given up overall, and is no longer one of the "good ones".

I guess it was the years of jobbing and farting gimmicks and being a valet for Khali, but she's finally getting regular screentime now and has been shitting the bed in the ring instead.

Ring Ka King would be a fun re-cap. Stro's recaps are best when he's suffering through wrestling mediocrity. How about Smoky Mountain?

RKK is also a great pick because it had one season, has plenty of TNA stars away from TNA and is a general reboot for many characters. It's not terribly long, but it's definitely overlooked. Loved RKK.

RKK is THE SHIT for, among many things, Scott Steiner doing his best Tiger Jeet Singh impression of TERRIFYING THE CROWD

Seriously, when he goes out into the crowd they part like the Red Sea, it's fucking awesome

DmC is a great game.

He's big in India, which is a good foreign market for WWE. There was also speculation that Vince has him on a big paycheck because he feels sorry for him (over the fact that Khali will probably be in a wheelchair within six years) and wants to help him out while he can.

I think that's the reason a lot of guys have been hired or kept around when it makes no sense. It's why guys like Goldust and Marty Jannetty were hired backed over and over. It's why Jim Duggan pops up every so often. It's probably why Tatanka had that random run in 2006. It's definitely why Vickie was hired initially, why Teddy Long has been with the company for over a decade, why Hugh Morrus keeps getting rehired, why Joey Matthews is still on as a trainer, and so on.

It was probably more apparent in the late 80s and early-mid 90s, though.

We'll see. I'm going to have a lot of trouble making it through the Summer months of WCW. It will be a real test of will and probably cost me a lot in booze money. But since I found a bottom shelf whiskey that tastes exactly like Crown (Canadian Hunter) for half the price, that might actually end up worse for me.

I remember RKK had some dude who had his first match on the show (I think he won) and had this big celebration

Then it came out that he died like immediately after :mad:

I half expected them to pull The Breakfast Club ending and freeze frame him celebrating, then doing a text crawl:

'He was never seen again alive'

Issues of being a terrible speaker with no charisma, hilarious dancer, and fondness of exceptionally long blazers. I can't think of a reason why he'd be not only employed for close to 15 years, but spending the majority of that time as the GM of Smackdown. Other than, of course, that Vince just likes the guy and wants him to have a job.

Worst goddamn ending, ruined everything I enjoyed about that game. You're not supposed to outright lie to the audience.

SCOTT SHELBY'S BIG FAT ASS WAS NOT THE SAME PERSON I FOUGHT IN TUCO'S LITTLE NUDIE DANCE OFFICE ALSO HE COULDNT FIT HIS LARGE AND IN CHARGE ASS INTO THAT CHUTE TO LEAVE BROKEN GLASS EVERYWHERE FOR ETHAN'S STUPID FORGETFUL ASS ALSO LET'S TALK ABOUT THE ORIGAMI WITH THE BLACKOUTS THAT ETHAN HAD - ON SECOND THOUGHT NO LETS IGNORE THEM

I did call the "evil" black dude you got into a fight with "Pallet Jack" instead of New Jack or whatever his name was.

It was their giant, I remember him. He died before S1 finished filming I believe or immediately after. Real bummer. I think he was like 7'6ish?

I know this happens with every big game that gets released but seeing people trying to justify why a game got a score they didn't want with "reviews won't get it" and "have to give a score in a pressure filled deadline environment" just makes me laugh.

I laugh pretty hard at the people who are so miserable that they think mediocre games are 'the worst games they've ever played' because gaming side has a raging hard-on for hyperbole.

I remember they came out a while after release and showed the unfinished cut supernatural bollocks that explained the giant plot holes.

It wasn't good but it was better then the giant hole in the story it left when they took it out I guess. Something to do with characters being "linked" or something. I really dont remember the details.

They literally just took a giant chunk out of the last 3rd of the game and didnt bother to tie up any lose ends it caused which was sort of worse IMO.

So I heard that the word is Cena was never injured, and his nasty ass elbow was from an infection caused by an injection needle.

Tag division is always in the dumps, Vince has never really believed in the market for it. I can't think of any time where it wasn't just a holding pool for singles stars while some room cleared out at the top of the card.

Ugggggh. I did a video game podcast a few years ago. It was silly. I hate being the center of attention on anything.

My friends all do media stuff though, like radio station stuff and streaming video games (NewLegacy etc etc). They're all nuts :p

Also a cooking podcast would just make me hungry
