Ahh you might be right there matey! Need to read his book again

Side fact - I only just found out that WCW ran the Royal Albert Hall in 1993.

and in 1991.... I think that was where Regal first had a try-out with them of sorts, working the opening match

Any ideas what the game is in the regal/pillman video?

The Grinder is pretty good...

Rob lowe plays a lawyer in a tv show, and when he leaves the show, assumes he can be a lawyer in real life (much to the chagrin of his brother, who is actually a lawyer)

Has anyone got an android tv box that they have successfully setup mame on?

I've just had an email for free WWE network until April 17th....if you are signed-up to the wwe mailing list maybe check your emails/junk folders.  You can cancel anytime before then and not be charged

Undertaker should always be wearing the original black/grey outfit, rather than looking like he wants to be in cradle of filth

the top/vest are all on piece i believe... I'm guessing the extra trunks are just in-case the tights split?

I know Flair had an agreement that he was free to go back to WCW if he wasn't going to be used on the main event level.

Maybe this is when he found out they were going to run with Bret, and part if the agreement was that the title change wouldn't be shown on syndicated tv?

Just guessing, but sounds logical...?

I've got all the standard figures and the red hogan mailaway.

Here is a hasbro based poster i drew a while back:

 

Yehh the beast is very bloated and if you have virgin as your isp a fair few things are blocked.

The best thing is to just have a mooch and find which addons work best for you and your setup...they are easy enough to delete if you don't like them.

 

UK turks is a nice little addon with a bit of everything.... Got all the Wrestlemanias under the classic tv section too

That'd be mobdro....

Its ok for sport as long as you only want to watch sky sports/bt....you don't need kodi for it tho. It works on any android device, I've got it on my samsung galaxy. Try it on your phone before you buy an android box if that is all you are going to use.

Ultimately you will need several sports apps so you can have alternative options when the streams are laggy/low quality etc.

 

Of course if you want to watch sports not on sky sports/bt you would then either need to know what foreign channel they are on or use a different app which does the hard work for you.

 

Ultimately you have to learn to do it yourself, because in 3 months time the apps which are popular now will have died off a bit and you will need to setup new ones to get the best out of your box.

It's no more difficult than setting up an app on your phone so don't be scared, and certainly don't pay a bloke 20quid to install tvaddons lol

I'd recommend an android box over amazon fire, as it is easier to put whatever you want on there. I have mame setup on mine too.

Bill Apter seemed like a lovely bloke on Jericho's podcast... Surprisingly charismatic for someone who looks so unassuming too!

Hahah the video i have is probably 4th/5th generation copy so i didn't notice, but i will have to go back and take a look now.... Also His finisher was a samoan-drop which they called the 'write-off', rather than the clothesline he later used

Just watched IRS's debut and he wore plain black wrestling tights with his shirt and tie....it looked odd. Very odd.

Interesting thing Edge said. He thinks E&C might be the only regular tag team who've both gone on to be World Champs. I'm struggling to think of another. APA were both World champs but Ron was before.Diesel & HBK is the next best I can do!

Bladerunners?

Is Flair eating for the first 15 mins of his JJ podcast? The drunk podcast with Sullivan was distracting too, he slurs enough when he is sober...

Watching that AWF video made me wonder, why did WWF release Samu and swap him with Barbarian?

Only just realised James Quinn from Knuckle is the guy supposedly fighting Ken Shamrock later this year

Just finished the Gary Hart book. I didnt really know too much of his work due to only really watching wwf growing up, but he certainly lived a pretty interesting life! No idea he had such an influential role in the development of the Great Muta, and the behind the scenes stuff from Wccw is always a good read.

There is also almost a whole chapter dedicated to exposing some of Meltzers lies, and exposing a few of the folks he thinks might have been sources....have any of Meltzers sources ever been revealed?

 

Also recently read the Harvey Wippleman/Downtown Bruno book, which had some good stories about The Rock and Sid, but his ego gets in the way a lot of the time....

Maybe his Harvey Wippleman stuff wasnt as good as his earlier work but i never really thought he was anything special?

He managed in wwf from early 91 til late 95 and yet i cant really think of any angles he was influential in

Is dynamite kid fighting matt hamill?

This year’s logo doesn’t feature the number either.

could have flipped the E and the S horizontal....

It's not a screenshot as the resolution wouldn't be high enough for print, but it is spectacularly poor editing, like how all of the images have completely different levels of brightness/contrast on the cover

Has Piper mentioned anything about his recent trip to the UK on any of his podcasts, or has it just been the usual repeating 'baby jesus' for 45 minutes?
