The Meg is great. Bait (the 2012 one) is also good fun. These two, Deep Blue Sea and Jaws 1 and 2 are the only good shark films.

"Jaws 4: The Revenge" isn't great, but it has a hilarious Michael Caine acting in it.

"The Time..It's Personal!!". Great tag-line.

Cracker of a Raw the week of Vince McMahon getting acquitted what with Randy Savage on commentary taking the piss out of the US justicial system and shouting "NOT GUILTY!" every five minutes. You even have a cracking, belting Shawn Michaels vs Razor Ramon match (first time they've grappled since Wrestlemania 10) there. Must be Summer 1994.

No, I think he *may* have been referred to as Ron Simmons when he was kicking the shite out of Ahmed Johnson on his debut. Don't recall them recognising him as a former WCW Champ at that time, even during his "Nation" days though.

Bushell. 

Aye. Grade A+ wanker.

ADDED: Is that guy doing the gay kiss in "Eastenders" not a Lord or something now.? Yes, he is. Labour party. Lord Cashman sounds like a great grappling name.

Just think, after Wee Wim, Celtic got Joszef Venglos of Aston Villa in about 1990 fame. I don't think Janssen got a week before he left after winning that title. Jock Brown kept on fighting him in the media, IIRC.

Hero at the Celtic for stopping the 10 in a Row. I'd have had him much older.

Liza Minnelli & Pet Shop Boys - "Losing My Mind" (1989)..

Hi. On the old WWF VHS releases, they have the standard "Don't do this at home!" message. Last paragraph annoys me "This Programme is Solely Intended For Your Viewing Pleasure". What else could it be for? Paging Silver Vision..

Sounds like some Austrian folk theme "keyboarded" up. 

Never thought I'd see this. From the WrestlingClassics.com board, Randy Orton RKO's Meat Loaf...

Jeezo, not Meat Loaf. RIP Big Man. "Bat Out of Hell" will be on rotation tonight.

Also has a wrestling connection too, he was playing the drums because his career was down on his luck on one of the 80s WWF "Wrestling Albums". In the music video, he was supposed to run away, when the grapplers chased him, but didn't and wanted a big smash up with the lads. Greg Valentine said that somewhere. Music video was changed.

"Horowitz Wins!!" doesn't come as a huge shock if you watch the Raw's leading up to it. He's featuring more prominently and in angles (such as when Jarrett gives him an IC Title match, but Barry gets tossed away and Bob Backlund signs it).

Lawrence Taylor not taking his match at Wrestlemania 11 seriously. Bam Bam Bigelow deserves being in the Hall of Fame for saving that shit.

Intrigued to find out where Owen Coyle disappeared to, he's managed a few Indian teams.

I still reckon Joe Kinnear getting the Newcastle job is the strangest appointment over here.

Yeah. It's like he disappeared for ten years, which might has well be 100 years in football, and turned up again. After he was sacked, he took on the "Director of Football" role at Newcastle and had an absolute car-crash interview with TalkSport after it, according to Wikipedia.

Kenny Dalglish coming back for a second time seemed a bit strange too but club legend and all that. 

Who is that UK "Wrestling Shoot Interviews" guy on Youtube? Seems to know his stuff. He a UKFF'r? Thanks.

I think they were teasing a turn at Summerslam 1990 when Rude launches himself from the top of the cage onto the Warrior and Heenan goes nuts.

I bet the Warrior loved doing the honours there.

Seen as this is the most recent Rick Ride thread going, Do you think Rick Rude *really* needed Bobby Heenan? It would have been interesting to see what would have happened if he stuck around the WWF in 1990, but then we wouldn't have had him in WCW in 1992.

George Rossi was also in the brilliant Scottish 80s comedy film "Comfort & Joy". Playing an Italian mob boss. He was hilarious in it.

I wouldn't have wanted to have fucked around with Sidney Poitier.

Hope he bins that "Canadian Destroyer" move.

He'll probably go into AEW's open arms. What a stupid move.

Yeah, nobody had a bad thing to say about Beautiful Bobby, with the possible exception of Lance Storm. 

Greg Valentine said he wouldn't take his chops at an indy show and Bobby Eaton scarpered. Overall though, Bobby was no doubt the best guy in the biz.

You're not taking about heatwave 98, surely. 

I seem to recall that being a great PPV all around.

What was the point of Jimmy Savile doing the grappling? Was he doing it for some noncing? What was the point?
