Apparently WCW wanted to bring him in as a biker under his real name. Taker wasn't happy with the direction of his character in the WWF hence giving him the biker gimmick.

 

Taker wasn't happy with the direction of his character in the summer of 1996, which is the time period up for discussion, so the WWF responded by changing his gimmick four years later?

 

Yep. He signed a big new deal with the promise of a gimmick change at some point in the future when it best suited both parties.

right at the end of the credits on the E:60 show from ESPN, the interviewer asks Vince "who do you consider your greatest masterpiece?" but the link above stops there! Dont suppose anyone knows what Vince said?

He said himself.

Did WCW ever make a play for The Undertaker on the Monday Night Wars. I'm watching RAW & Nitro from that era on the Network currently and a July 96 episode of RAW had a promo for the WWF Superstar-Line posing the question 'will Summerslam be The Undertaker's last match in WWF?'. Now I never called the Superstar-Line back in the day, but I imagined it would have been in full Kayfabe mode so it seems odd that they would suggest that Taker would be leaving before said match had happened

Watching that really made me want to see Adam Rose succeed. 

Demott came across well in that too, he comes across as a cunt on Tough Enough.

Pat Patterson Appreciation Night

Good documentary. Found it incredible that they edited the Curb Stomp out of it though.

"Hulk Hogan is a complete satanic sell out"

This is comedy gold.

Fuck 'n' wrestling

That springboard stunner just looks like a botch to me. Not a fan.

Can Hounds of Justice get anything right? 

Was watching the Ivory shoot before it got deleted. I massively fancy her even in her 50s.

What's the deal with her, never married, no kids? Is she a lesbian or something? There must be stories of wrestlers who have gone through her?

It's pretty pitiful if they have indeed banned the Curb Stomp, however what if they're giving him a regular finisher to beat the likes of Ziggler but saving (and protecting) the Curb Stomp for when he faces the top guys. 

By making the Curb Stomp this 'last resort', devastating move, it will make him beating fellow top guys seem more realistic.

How long after that return was Big Daddy V?

BDV was a great monster heel.

Is Mideon 'out' as gay?

Why do wrestlers with tons of money have the shittest fashion sense? Then again must be hard to find anything nice if you're 6ft10 and have a 50inch chest. 

Yeah that scarf is horrid. What was he thinking?

Lol at these "news" sites now getting everything from podcasts. Is there anyone that we can seriously see coming back for a match at 32?

Austin. That's what all this 'falling out' with the WWE is about.

HBK turned down an offer to wrestle at Mania 32: http://www.sescoops.com/shawn-michaels-said-he-turned-down-an-offer-to-wrestle-at-wrestlemania-32/

Looks like they're pulling out all the stops for this one.

 

I wonder what they'll do with Corbin if he gets up to the main roster? He needs a better costume I think - he's got the build but he just doesn't look that intimidating in boring black tights.

 

A while back in the thread, we had a discussion about the various shitty looks of Barin Corbin. They've tried quite a few for him, and none of them are brilliant.

 

 

I think he legit has the worst tattoos of all time. He needs of of those MVP bodysuits.

Shit beard too.

I'd get Brie off the road if I was him though

Why?

Kurt Angle's head looks the size of a hot air balloon these days.

What sort of adverts? WWE ones?

The only ad I've had is the Immortals one.

More depressing than a three quarter empty blacked out arena?

TNA should do a run of shows at the Asylum in a 'back where we started' type deal.

 

Did Jericho accidentally admit that him and everyone else was on steroids?

Yep.

 

The way it came across he kinda stated Cena and Storm were the only two guys he knew who never had any help.

 

Yeah put his foot in it there didn't he.

Also hilarious how he misinterpreted what Cena said thinking he used to workout for 48 hours straight. 

Against Triple H at IYH:DX.
