Yeah, I could definitely see going back and reliving 1992 if they ever put up WCW Saturday Night, etc.
A fine list, sir.
That's really awesome. Athena will be the Bad News Brown, to Eva's Hulk Hogan.

Good for Bandido Jr., whom I remember from various JAPW shows.

Lil Naitch

I was thinking of fat Teddy Long and Armstrong mainly. I'd count Little Naitch though, who secretly has one of the best matches in the dying years of WCW.
WCW actually has two great referee matches, Little Naitch versus team madness and Nick Patrick versus Jericho with one arm tied behind his back.

that's dire as fuck. The second half better be damn good to carry that shit first half
In terms of in ring stuff 2015 has been stellar, also it has had some great stories and promos.

Now that WWE Network added 1997 nitros I'm continuing watching the nitros and ppvs in order. I'm at nWo Souled Out. This ppv isn't that great.
I'd go as far to say it is literally the worst PPV ever produced by a major US company.

Dude probably could have been an actual WWE Superstar if he didn't spend his 20s fucking himself up like that.
Miss... nWo.

From the ones I've seen, I've enjoyed them... strangely.

If The Marine was just a little bit worse, it'd be a perfect mid 90s DTV movie you saw on Cinemax or picked up at Blockbuster.

I really liked The Power Trip
Was hoping we'd get something similar out of Bryan & Punk. Maybe New Day will fulfill my dreams of title hording.

12 Rounds 3: Dean Ambdown is Dean if you like Dean. I like Dean. I guarandean it.
I'd be one of the seven people cheering.
You, HHH, Arn Anderson.
What's the scoop?
CMLL story: Dr Wagner called them up and said working the anniversary show was not in his best interest.
What Wagner will say: He did it in solidarity with LA PARK
The probable true story: Wagner is a dick and money is involved.What that probably means is that he realized LA Park has off the show and wanted more money and CMLL wouldn't play

I don't get why guys are willing to do stupid shit like barbed wire matches or ridiculous, excessively dangerous high spots for what's likely to be a shitty pay day. It's not going to get you noticed and lead to bigger and better things doing it in front of a crowd small enough to put on a bus with seats to spare either.
Rush wanting to murder Super Parka was great. I still think that match is going to happen come march

I wonder why they still keep WWE Studios around.
Do those movies actually make them money anymore? Theirs films dont look Sci Fi films cheap so they have to cost them something.
Maybe its just about keeping connections in Hollywood or something.

It worked for Mick Foley. Dean Ambrose has headlined PPVs, got a starring role in a movie, dates Renee Young, and lights the Tumblrsphere afire. If it worked for them, surely it can work for the 300lb guy in rural Alabama with no training.
To be fair it also fucked Mick Foley for life. I used to seethe when HHH called Foley out on that shit but he's absolutely right...even though those high spots also made him super extra over. Foley would do extreme stunts on the smallest of matches though and then had to top that on the big PPVs.

The sad thing about Foley is that he didn't need to do any of that shit. He was a great talker and had great psychology in the ring. There was no reason he needed to do the Nestea Plunge and back drops on the floor every night.

Because he could take the bumps that no one else was willing to do at that time.

That's the sad thing. He didn't NEED to take those bumps. At least not as often.
