Eddie was already fucked up tbh. It was only a matter time. They tried helping him but he was so hard on himself. Then Benny, I think if the depression from the deaths of lots of his didn't sink in, he would've lived longer. But he and Eddie birth destroyed their bodies to be on the top. It's sad what this fake business will do to you.

I was having such a good friday :'(

Regardless of whatever happened in his personal life or what type of shit put in his body, Eddie will always be the greatest for me.

Anyways, if you like back flippy floppy shit like I do, this just happened 'today'
It was taped but for the sake of argument

I don't think they tried. Wasn't the Wellness program in response to Eddie dying? Did they even test for steroids before that? When Eddie came back in 2002 scary huge, no way can anyone say he wasn't on steroids. They should have just looked at him and suspended him. Instead they rewarded him.

Yeah, I was referring to them putting him in rehab and letting him go in 2001. My bad.

Shoot of the Day

A lot of games that get high praise these days actually are bad to mediocre in the gameplay department
(The Witcher 3)
. Just like WWE runs from wrestling, the video game industry runs away from being a game.

Just when I thought I knew everything I learn something new. Bret in ECW and the Last Battle of Atlanta (everyone thought it was taped over by Ole Anderson) are going to be must watches.

So what holy grails in wrestling are left after this?

Alright here we go --

Hello yall!

been lurking WrestleGaf for like three years now. Some annoying inside-Memes aside, I appreciate the community and a lot of you guys are totally funny. I like Indie Poster Thursday and Shoot friday etc.

I love Pro Wrestling. Love it so much that I even made my own Pro Wrestling promotion. It's called Middle Kingdom Wrestling. We operate in China. You may know us from Googling about CWC WWE Particpant Ho Ho Lun who wrestles for me or just doing any research about Chinese Pro Wrestling.

We upload our shows on Youku, Tudou and Youtube (for western audiences,) with English commentary -- so do please give it a look and subscribe to our channel. Would appreciate it so so so much.

How I became a fan:

I became a Pro Wrestling fan by renting WCW/NWO World Tour at Blockbuster. I was Sting in the game and I hit Hollywood Hogan with a Scorpion deathdrop.

And then one day I switch through channels on TV and come across WCW Nitro in early 1998 and see Sting do an SSD on Hollywood Hogan. And I was like, wow, pro wrestling is exactly like the game? Ok, I'm in forever and now, here we are.

I watched three minutes of that video and it was a fever dream. Good work.

How about WCW/nWo Revenge? Pretty amazing, right?

If getting fucked in the head/neck area makes you the next Daniel Bryan then the NJPW roster might as well grow hobo beards and shitty Shawn Michales hair.

Yeah I guess so. :p

So here's a question I just came up with -- think of your wrestling viewing sessions as a pie chart and write in percentages which pro wrestling company gets the most of your viewing time

For me:

65% CURRENT WWE (includes Raw Smackdown NXT CWC)
15% Ring of Honor
10% "Old School Indie" (IWA MS/CZW etc.)
5% "Classic" WWE (Attitude era and older)
5% TNA

There was a lady on the Curb Your Enthusiasm I was watching last night with the name Nakamura and then there was just some hot air balloon lady on CBS Sunday Morning with the name Nakamura. Is it a sign from the wrestling gods?!

Which podcasts? I've only really been listening to podcasts from podcast one. Russo with Disco, Konnan, Jericho (hasn't done many wrestling ones recently) and the odd Ross Report. Austins interview style has got really formulaic no matter who the guest. I think that was his problem with Ambrose, he didn't wanna talk about growing up, wasn't into high school sports and Austin couldn't adapt.

Could do with some recommendations

This idea that Roman could draw like The Rock if they just turned him heel. That's like saying that Erick Rowan could be as big as Stone Cold if he could catch a beer can.

Roman is never even going to make it to Cena's level, being The Rock is a pipe-dream. The guy is 31. The Rock turned 31 in 2003, and he had already left the WWE before his 31st birthday.

You have to have something on the mic and Roman doesn't have a single shred in or out of the ring. I mean, good on him for having a handsome face and learning a few moves and getting paid. He better be saving that money.

I love shoots. I maybe spend more time watching/listening to shoots than I do watching actual wrestling as well.
