  1. I've just read through the last few pages of this, catching up on what's going down with TNA and for a couple of those pages I was thinking "Y'know what, I've not watched anything TNA other than the Final Deletion stuff for getting on for 2 years, maybe i'll give them a chance again".

     

    Then I read the words "Alberto El Patron" and decided against it.

     

    I don't think there is a less entertaining, interesting and exciting supposed "Main Event" guy out there than sodding Bertie. Go away. Forever!

    Looking to watch some more Arn Anderson stuff, is there anything on the network from when he was belting?

    I'd go with Anderson and Larry Zbyszko vs Ricky Steamboat and Dustin Rhodes at Clash of the Champions 17 from November 91. Everyone is awesome in that match.

    You fell for a trick question - you silly mark!

     

    Arn Anderson was always belting. There is no "non belting period" to watch. Just type "Arn Anderson" into the search function and providing he's not in there with utter shit, it'll be a great match!

    He's a fantastic talent and always watchable, but did he ever have a great match in WWF?

     

    I'll just about allow the Survivor Series 1988 tag match although to be fair there were approximately 73 decent workers in that match.

     

    Any others?

     

     

    He really didn't have that many matches there that weren't jobber deals, but I personally enjoyed every match The Brainbusters had with Demolition, The Harts and Strike Force. Judging from this listing..

    He didn't work any singles matches?

  4. This whole thing is equal parts sad, hilarious and scary.

     

    It's hilarious because (regardless of real-life consequences) the USA actually voting Donald Trump as President is the biggest joke ever written.

    It's sad because (probably like many on here) I've watched what America does my whole life. From loving WWF and American films/TV as a kid up to traveling across the whole country in my Gap Year - i've always loved the place. What is happening right now is disgraceful!

    It's scary because this only goes one of two ways: either there is a big push back towards sanity very soon (either the Dems step up and start killing it in smaller elections, or they impeach the nutter) or it's too late and America turns into a fucking nightmare of racial and religious infighting.

     

    It genuinely feels like we are all watching a disaster movie play out on TV.

  5. There have always been wrestlers with shitty genes (or laziness) that meant they had crappy builds - you just need to find the right gear to cover it up. By gear, I mean clothes, by the way, not "get on the gas".

     

    Mike Rotunda always looked like crap, hence Vince putting him in a suit as IRS the second time around. Barry Windham was a flabby mess at various points. Dustin Rhodes always had a crappy physique. Jake Roberts looked like he's never lifted a weight in his life. JBL was a flabby git most of the time and even Edge (who looked ripped and lean for much of his run) looked flabby and soft towards the end of his run.

     

    If you are good and you get over, it doesn't matter.

  6.  

     

    Any word on why they haven't used Tozawa yet? Hopefully it's because they've waiting until they've got something for him, he's too good to get lost in the shuffle with the likes of Dorado and Nese.

     

    Every week with no Tozawa is pissing my housemate off, big time. We've been fans of his since the first Dragon Gate shows over here years back. He's bloody excellent.

     

    I keep saying that they'll bring him in as a bit of a killer and have him go on a bit of a streak and that's why they are waiting, while also winding him up that he'll pop up one week as Mr Tojo or something, with a doomed stereotypical gimmick from the 70s.

  7.  

     

    I remember him being big in WCW but he's really beefed up since then. Doesn't he blame weight gain due to leg injury?

    Think I read that somewhere as well.... Although I am guessing the "All You Can Eat" Breakfast Buffets, dont do him any favours either.

    Maybe that's how he picked up his injury....carrying his plate

    "Have you got your big plate, Ham Head?"

    "...Yes."

  8. Big Lebowski is tremendous. The mere fact that Devon had to come out of hiding just to assert this fact should tell you how true it is.

     

    However, the version of just dropped in played in the film is not the best one. There's another recording (Still Kenny, of course) with some fantastic guitar noodling. Worth finding if you like the song.

    This one...

    Wonderful version.

  9. Ha!  :D

     

    I got suckered in to a free trial and found out they had every Nitro (just as I was watching it through on shitty VHS conversions) and it's been there ever since. Well worth it for NXT alone though really.

     

    Besides, look at the top talent and hot prospects of WWE these days, why would I of all people want WWE to lose money?

    It's like Triple H found a forum post of mine from 2005 and said "hire all this lot and give them belts ASAP".

     

    I'm surprised you've not found a new hobby  :p
