Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted November 6, 2015 Awards Moderator Share Posted November 6, 2015 Has Superstars always been on the Network? I've just put it on to watch some of Survivor Series 1997 and this week's episode was on the 'now playing' bit. I've always been a fan of a c-level show, I'd have been watching it most weeks if I'd known! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian 86 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 (edited) Just to confirm, the Wrestleforce that runs today is not the Wrestleforce that Big Benny described. Â Same name and logo, nothing else. Â Those shows were worth travelling for. Sounds like these shows aren't. Â I hear they drew 20 in Maidenhead and had one of the wrestlers doing ring intros from behind the curtain. No pies either. Â Could be jumping to an unfair conclusion but sounds like the new owner is a bit of a shit arse. Â Edit: owner is a guy called Oliver Peace (in case anyone knows or has dealt with him and wants to defend...)

Otto Dem Wanz Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Has there ever been a wrestler to use drum and bass music as an entrance song? I'm sensing if the answer is "yes" it would be a Britwres guy, but can anyone give me a definitive answer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undefeated Steak Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Which wrestler do you reckon is the man who's given the largest number of other wrestlers their career-defining match?  Michaels, Flair, Undertaker, Hunter, Cena? They've all gotta be up there. Anyone else? You can include their best angles, storylines, promos etc too but I think it'll come down to matches mainly.  Rules aren't too strict on what's defined as their 'best match'.  It's gotta be Cena for me. (In no order): Umaga - Last Man Standing RR Brock Lesnar - Extreme Rules Daniel Bryan - SummerSlam RVD - ONS (50/50 whether to put this in) CM Punk - Money in the Bank Edge - The one where he got AA'd through the tables on the outside. (Edge prolly had better tag matches around 2000 but this was his best singles match IMO.) Bobby Lashley - GAB Great Khali Seth Rollins - Royal Rumble triple threat  You could probably throw a JBL match in there too. There's probably a load I've missed too.  Can anyone beat 9?

NEWM Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Going to New York for a week in January. Can anybody recommend or suggest any wrestling-based things to do/see while walking about? Â Gonna have a nosey round MSG and whatnot but are the any shops/attractions etc hidden away that are worth a look? It's not high on the list of things to do, but it just struck me that with a history with wrestling the city has, there might be the odd thing to visit. Cheers.

dopper Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 (edited) The Hammerstein Ballroom & Manhattan Center (two parts of the same building) have a bit of history behind them. That building is right behind MSG on 34th Street. Â The USS Intrepid (where Lex Luger bodyslammed Yokozuna) is still docked in the same place 22 years later, somewhere on the West side of the island. Â In my first trip to New York in 1999 as a naive kid, I made sure to visit the address of Coliseum Home Video which was listed in the intro to all old WWF videotapes. In my mind it was going to be a huge shop selling every WWF video ever made and probably lots more merchandise for me to get my hands on. Â It was a completely nondescript store-front without even a sign, just a storage place. Edited November 11, 2015 by dopper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ace (and ask at your hotel for discount vouchers). Keep your eyes peeled for VKM's floor plaque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
