Jimmy Savile. 

He was in a couple of matches. So he counts.

Never seen it. Him and Benoit defo.

How can anybody not mention Grizzly Smith?

Whilst probably not number 1, Buck Zumhofe should be in this conversation.

Have to add Bob Sweetan too.

Mubi has 3 months for £1 at the moment. Definitely worth it if you're not on there.

Aye, and the first film is "Red Road". Fire right in. Be prepared to be shocked. She's watching you know (courtesy of film). In real life, the Red Road flats are no more. Demolished years ago.

I did notice that Raw she hosted from 2014 was randomly on the WWE Network and feared the worst. What a life. Helped in World War 2 as well.

Andreas Koch - "Opening Ceremony", also known as Ricky Steamboat's WCW's 90s theme. Also on Spotify. Andreas Koch's full album is pretty great seen as it's really just generic library music.

William Regal's first WCW theme as "Lord" is on Spotify too. Search "Parry Music Noble Occasion".

neil is a good bloke. Never had any "bellend" encounters with him. Kinky.

What was the deal with Chris Adams absolute hatred of William Regal when they were in WCW? Thanks

I read that the Skatt Brothers song "Life at the Outpost" was supposed to appeal to the ladies. Think they got that a bit wrong.

I'm like that as well. I like my brother's wife and family but I feel like, as Jim Cornette said, like "a spare prick at a wedding" at these things, since Mumzie passed.

Hope you all have a good one!

He's talking like he's got 10 people behind the camera with shotguns. Still a racist old bastard though.

If the Samaritans were so great why is one of them being nice so noteworthy in the bible eh? 

Off Topic, but in a TIL moment, there are apparently less than 1000 Samaritans left, and due to a shortage of woman and a reduced genetic pool they are at risk of disappearing all together. 

I don't get this post at all.

Aye as Keith Houchen said, their email service is great too.

Samaritans are brilliant people. I've called them a few times whilst low. It really does help talking. Don't bottle shit in, let the shit out.

Try not to drink to excess at this time of year, if you're depressed. You'll feel a billion times worse.

"WCW All Nighter" from 1995 has a brilliant match between Steve Austin vs Ricky Steamboat from a "Clash of the Champions in 1994" event. It's bloody amazing. It's right at the start. Might have been Steamboat's last WCW match.

Just that I've noticed a lot of WWF music is passing through recently apart from Rick Rudes.

Yes, he turned it down for some reason. So did the Red Rooster, can't blame the Rooster there.

Getting in with the "Are your sure it was really him?" before anybody else does.

He's got a legit past like Johnny Rambo, no wonder they pushed him.

Why is Rick Rude's WWF music dubbed over.with another song? You can see why they did it for his early WCW run because that's just a messed around version.of "Black Cat" by Janet Jackson on his debut.

Managed to get 2 mins in and he's pissed me off. What a kunt.

It just has to be posted again. Eartha Kitt & Bronski Beat (without Jimmy Somerville) from 1988 - "Cha Cha Heels". That's one of the guys from that programme "London's Burning" in that video, right?

Not that it's 100% proven true, but "The Model" Rick Martel's theme is just a very slow version of Strike Force's "Girls.in Cars", IMO.

Don't quote me but I think you'll find the matches on that NJPW World subscription service, just not with the made up names.

Yeah, I remember NJPW in 2007/08, I think they still used the same Judo commentators. TNA, it was very odd, but here it was commentated on quite well.

ADDED: I think it was that old WWF guy, Craig DeGeorge, that replaced Solie.

I'm almost sure Eurosport got the Judo commentators in to dub over the commentating for the TNA footage that they showed. Talked about it like it was 100% legit.
