When EY pinned D'Lo at the convienence store, D'Lo should have said, sadly, "He didn't even recognize me". It might be TNA's biggest mistake ever.

I really thought he was going to get a main event push when he was the Euro-Continental Champion. He was so over. Then the Droz thing happened and his career died off. Such a shame. His TNA run was fun, too. Remember that weird, super short WWE return?

Remember when there used to be pull apart brawls in the WWF and they'd have all those old wrestlers that as a kid you had no idea who they were, but you knew they were legit? Because they were old wrestlers and in suits? Well, D'Lo is now that in TNA, except he wears pastel polos and jeans. It bums me out. Are D'Lo and Al Snow they only agents TNA have? They should bring in some 80s NWA jobbers or something.

It's amazing how massive the reactions were to even mid card guys back then. The NAO got bigger reactions on a regular basis than Cena gets at his most over. It's crazy.

Steen reminds me a lot of D'lo actually, esp before Steen turned into a ham monster. I wonder why more people don't make that comparison

I wish I could find the clip where D'lo runs into Mark and goes 'Damn Damn Damn!"

kids should watch justice league and young justice instead

 

[bean breath]

So that's three WWE shows with higher ratings than Impact? They need to listen to the fans and usher in the PG era of Impact. Their storylines are too mature, explicit, and don't insult my intelligence.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

The only Power Rangers they have is older than most people watching the program.

Why not put on the new one?

I understand. And yes I do. :3

It MIGHT go up today, I'm still needing another vid or two as well as my own, then I'll "master" it and we'll get happenin'. I'm puttin' in some work on it to pretty it all up.

 

[bean breath]

Gosh, I hope Linda McMahon wins this November.

 

[Dthomp]

So how was Saturday morning Slam? I tried to tune in for a few minutes during the Brodus/Hawkins match and couldn't get past the terrible Santino commentary, or the dancing mid match. Was the rest something I should find to watch or chalk it up to the usual WWE crap?

On a side note, how is having a Saturday morning kid friendly show any different then weekly PG WWE?

 

[FallingEdge]

[British Monsoon]

No submissions and no moves to the head/neck area, including headlocks. I'm pretty certain Randy Orton would be at a total loss as how to wrestle a match like that.

The CW is a free, over-the-air broadcast channel. With Saturday Morning Slam, WWE can reach the unwashed masses of the WWE Universe and hipster cable-cutters like Net_Wrecker.

No submissions? How is a submission something that children shouldn't see? Since we are pandering to kids with the non violence can I get an after 9pm "T-R" rated show for my entertainment?

 

[The Frankman]

Still my centerpiece of the Nation 2.0 if he ever signs back with the WWE. CRIMINALLY underused, but again probably better off overseas.

 

[British Monsoon]

OK, this was a real good match - watch it;

Takao Omori & Manabu Soya (c) vs Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi - (AJPW 08/26/12)

Since we are pandering to kids with the non violence can I get an after 9pm "T-R" rated show for my entertainment?

I wish - but, as Vince has so thoroughly driven the adult audience into the waiting arms of UFC, I doubt they'd think such a show would be worth the effort. Not to mention, Mattel would probably kick up a fuss again about wrestlers they make toys of being too violent.

But the whole point of toys is to smash them into each other trying to mimic what we see on the television. Fuck Mattel, unless they can hook me up with a sweet Maryse doll.....er....action figure

Oh my, FallingEdge showing me why he posts in the VF5:FS topic far more than I do. Can I overcome?!

I don't know, what did you tell us?

Natalya and Layla, right? What a creepy gif

Finshing up the Fight of Fighters video now! Will take a little time but I believe I have all content I need, save one little bit I'm allocating space and time for.

natayla doesn't get to show off her assets nearly enough.

Guess I won't be able to watch sunflower, I"m going to sleep soon.

And the only reason SaTuRdAy MoRnInG SlAm did well is because nothing else was new. I'm sure once Young Justice, and Green Lantern, and Legend of Korra start their new seasons, that'll taper off.

Don't worry. It'll be on Youtube after the stream of it later tonight. Planning on Synchtubin' it for the streeeeam.

That's what you'd like to think, isn't it? Saturday Morning Slam is here to stay!

 

[strobogo]

The Saturday morning shows in the 80s were violent as fuck. WWE should at least be as PG as they were then instead of clearly G rated except for when The Rock comes to town.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

That's what you'd like to think, isn't it? Saturday Morning Slam is here to stay!

Pfffft, like I care? I don't even watch Smackdown. D level shows like Slam can get the boot. Monday Night DVRaw 1000 Supershow is plenty kid friendly already.

 

[Striker]

Not nearly enough at all. Most divas would be good to see on TV if it weren't PG. Skeletor GM not included.

 

[G-Fex]

I know right? Beth's has got to be wonderful.


and Natayla's is Hart shaped.

 

[Jitters]

WWE should buy Chikara and make that their kid's show. Make Smackdown their pg show and make Raw their tv-14 show. They have so much programming, I wish they would add variety to them.

 

[Aiii]

Why the fuck are you all getting so worked up about a kuds show. It doesn't matter. Just don't watch it.

Jezus.

 

[Seraphis Cain]

Because SABAN IS GOING TO RUIN EVERY WWE SHOW BECAUSE SATURDAY MORNING SLAM EXISTS.

Or something.

 

[G-Fex]

Why do people hate Slam?

It's such a stupid little show, who cares?

 

[Ithil]

I don't think Vince sees in raw numbers any more these days, just in easy factoids. "Most highly rated weekly episodic children's show on the CW Network!"

 

[G-Fex]

Why doesn't Slam have any great segments with sketches like Sin Cara fighting off aliens or something.

Not stupid dancing teaching.

 

[strobogo]

You're right. They should totally go super crazy with the Saturday show. Hopefully the Scooby Doo thing leads to another WWE cartoon. I'd totally watch a cartoon of Rey and Sin Cara doing ranas to aliens and monsters. Or a Power Rangers styled show with them. Rey, Sin Cara, Trent Barreta, Yoshi, and Kofi as a group of superhero dudes would be the shit. I want to see Rey's Zord do a 619 to Goldar immediately.
