  1. Here's a picture of Warrior's family in the front row of Raw wearing his merch. I'll only link the picture, because its pretty heartbreaking and if you were upset over the Hall of Fame this will do you in worse. Fucking tragic. What a shame.

    Yeah that's awful. I was talking to my girlfriend last night who has zero interest in wrestling and she pointed out that at least he went out on a high. Their last image of their Father / Husband was one of a respected, larger than life mega star. It must have been a magical weekend for them which they will never forget.

  2. I did wonder what was wrong with him, when he didn't shake the ropes at raw. He spoke the night before about pushing his body beyond the limits and how blown up it go him. However just 48 hours later be couldn't do it. WWE even cut the cameras away when he was doing it. Strange he didn't run to the ring. The suit and getting on could have explained that. It couldn't explain the ropes gimmick

     

    If you go back and watch his match from Spain in 2008. he could barely run to the ring then on a flat, 6 years later it would have only been worse having to run down a ramp.

     

    I did wonder why the cameras were cutting away from him entering the ring, it seemed odd they were doing that and I remember being annoyed. This wasn't Tatanka entering the ring on some random Raw, it should have been a bigger deal.

  3. Who own's the St. Louis wrestling footage? I assume not Vince as it's never popped up anywhere. Where they not part of what Crockett bought in the mid 80's?

    Pretty sure that Larry Matysik owns it.

     

    Nope. The closest chain of custody is the TV station that ran the programme. All the original footage is gone, all that remains is what's taped from the TV at the time. Said TV station let Larry run his comps, but that's hardly going to hold up if anybody challenged ownership.

  4. Would have liked to have fully completed Mario 3D World on the Wii U, until I realised to do so you had to play the game with every single character (as in complete EVERY task with every character).

     

    Fuck that. Even in my gaming prime when I was never without a controller in my hand could I be bothered to do that.

  5. I'd fucking love to see the Self-Destruction-style video they'd knocked together before Bret got back on board though.

     

    Why? It would just be a video of forced faux opinions with no balance. You can picture the criticisms before hand: took himself too seriously, poor talker, poor matches in WCW etc. Sitting through two hours of that would be a dull affair.

  6. Anybody know if this was true about Owen Hart's death?

     

    > It was also revealed that Owen had inadvertantly saved the life of Mexican Luchadore Max Mini, because the original idea was for Owen to hold on to Max, who would also be dressed as a "Blue Blazer", as a "mini-me", but Owen refused to take responsibility for another person's life.

     

    There has always been mentions of a mini wrestler proposed to being with him that day. I haven't heard anything about Owen being the one to say no - although he possibly did, or the company decided against it, or the mini for that matter.

  7. You know when people moan about how there's no dream matches left? I really think that's because people have no imagination when it comes to dream matches

     

    Undertaker vs Sting is all well and good but wouldn't Screaming Norman have been a fun opponent for The Phenom?

     

    That's nothing to do with a lack of imagination. There's a pretty good reason why nobody is spending their spare time thinking about stuff like this.
