I think the closest you are going to get to Doom in WWE is this appearance at Teddy Long's wedding in 2007.

What a picture! Watched Doom vs Sting and Luger from the Clash the other night - they really had the most ill-fitting music, didn't they?!

"Future Preston City Wrestling Regulars" would be a fitting name.

 

"The Fludder Muckers"

*claps*

Say what you like, the man was OVER!

I forget sometimes how massive a bloke Undertaker is. That's actually Brian Kendrick in the photo with him.

Tanahashi vs Suzuki from 'King of Pro Wrestling 2012' and Tanahashi vs Anderson from 'New Beginning 2013' are my favourites.

I have it on DVD, I'm sure, I bought it drunk at Dragongate years ago!

Episode Four of Interesting People Talking Wrestling is with football journalist and broadcaster Gabriele Marcotti chatting a lot of old school ECW.

Wow, I didn't expect to read that. Will be downloading this tonight!

It was really well done, wasn't it? Very good.

Hogan Knows Best!

At what point should the DJ go to his Grade A material? You know, Black Lace, 'Tell Me Ma' by Sham Rock, and Hillbilly Rock Hillbilly Roll?

That proper broke me, hahaha!

Time to play the game!....

Just do some more Gut Checks around the country. Sorted!

Nice little factoid from the Observer - Bo Dallas was the first entrant in a Royal Rumble match not to have been born at the time of the first Royal Rumble in 1988.

Hearing Matthew Kelly reference Papa Shango has made my night.

Am I correct in thinking all these guys will have paid to get in this? TNA is on to a good little earner if so!

Off topic, but can we have a heel, right-wing British tag team called the National Express please? Cheers. They obviously charge less if you book them in advance.

The Impact Wrestling tapings I went to were roughly 9 million times more enjoyable than the Raw one I attended. I think if TNA takes that live experience around North America, they'll make a lot of fans along the way. Draw them in with the names, it worked here.

Fun WCW top 100 list HERE

That Johnny B. Badd vs Brian Pillman from Fall Brawl '95 match must be one of the most under-rated US PPV matches ever. I've never heard anyone speak highly of it, and it's bloody brilliant.

I have a lot of time for Ric Flair v Vader from Starrcade though, probably my favourite ever WCW match.

Agreed, one of the best examples of them doing a big, emotional match really well. WWF were usually a lot better at that.

I'd have had War Games 1991 in there as well. Not a bad list really though.

Also I quite enjoyed some bloke in the crowd yelling "SUPER DRAGON!" during a quiet moment in a backstage bit on the 20th anniversary show.

 

It made me feel uncomfortable, and ashamed I understood the reference.

Ditto, cringe central!

Well, Hogan dropped the title to Undertaker TWICE, so he does owe him one! ;-)

Guy posted this on the WrestlingClassics.com board. A WWF microphone was spotted when WCW announced that NWA tag-team title tournament in 1992.

 

Anymore to this story?

Tony took it for giggles. JR returned it, rewarded with a toga.

Yeah, Michaels had a good reason to be in the HHH/Undertaker match, which played into the story leading up to and during the bout. Austin obviously doesn't. Unless he's still pissed about the Ministry.

Taylor allegedly put his bag in Matador's locker (ooh!), leading to words and and ensuing challenge! Sean Mooney was your man.
