Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted March 31, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted March 31, 2011 X-Pac was interviewing Kevin Nash on his show tonight. Recap: -X-Pac said Triple H text him saying "dont take this the wrong way, but if you cant afford a Tux, I'll help you out". X-Pac laughed it off saying his thinks WWE think he's down on his luck and on his arse. Nash said they should turn up in the Dumb and Dumber blue and orange tuxedos. I hope this happens personally. The Hall of Fame would be worth watching for that. -Nash has also been told to "bring his gear". He might just be pissing about, but he might do a run/walk/hobble in. -X-Pac shagged a lass who was missing a thumb the other night. -Nash has said he cant do the 450 Moonbomb like he used to.

Daaaaaad! Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Brill. Mildly related to that, I read somewhere that Waltman is resurrecting the 1-2-3 Kid for CHIKARA at some point - could be worth a watch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mole Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 In asking around today, I am told that Santino Marella and Vladimir Kozlov were added to the eight man tag against the Corre at Wrestlemania as a result of WWE Creative deciding to move Christian into a role where he will be in Edge's corner at Wrestlemania 27 when Edge faces Alberto Del Rio for the World title. There was also a feeling that Marella in particular had "earned a spot on the card" based on his work the last few years. Basically, I was told that management feels that he hits a home run with whatever he is scripted to do and has no problem portraying himself as the silly persona we see on television and since he hadn't worked a Mania card yet in the ring, this was his reward.  In regards to Kofi Kingston not being currently booked on the Wrestlemania card, I was told that nothing is definite yet but there was talk of possibly adding Drew McIntyre vs. Kofi Kingston to the card in the last day.  from PWInsider.com  I wouldn't mind Kofi-Drew on the pre show and Santino more than deserves a Mania spot but he has competed at Mania in the Divas battle royal.

Paid Members Sir Steve Redgrave Posted March 31, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted March 31, 2011 Is there a way to buy a decent quality, legal stream for Mania this Sunday? I don't have Sky but took the next day off work (as I had something planned but it fell through) so i'm gonna watch it anyway. I'd rather pay for it and have no shutdowns/lagging during the show than be looking for a new stream every 10 minutes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baz Windham Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Should this thread be changed to the offical Wrestlemania 27 thread? Â Seems like a good idea for a kind mod to change it to the Pre/Post show discussion thread yeah, saves another one being made Sunday and having posts all over the shop in this thread and others, helps to avoid spoilers if there's one clear thread.

Cheers Dill, much appreciated. Wasn't sure if it worked in the UK but after a quick browse around the internet, it seems others have had minimal problems.

Super Cena Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 ^ I was also looking for a way to stream it legally, but there's not a chance that I'm going to pay $55 for the privilege. Â I did hear a tale that on a clear night, if the moon is bright and you're lucky, you can make out crawlingwest's collection of TV's reflecting off the night's sky. If not though, I'm going to be searching for a few streaming sites over the weekend so I'll PM you some links if I have any luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted April 1, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted April 1, 2011 The Hall of Fame speeches are being scripted this year.

mdh85 Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 I hope that means working with the inductees and helping them script/structure/bullet-point what they want to say so it fits into the allocated time, rather than literally writing their speeches for them word for word. Because that would be taking one of the few moments of the WWE year which is genuine and heartfelt and not surgical, controlled, corporate and over-rehearsed and making it all those things. And thus totally spoiling it and ruining the point. Â And I really don't want to hear wrestlers from the 80's using phrases like "entertainers", "players", or "WWE Universe" in their acceptance speeches. That would make me sad.

The WWE has such a great opportunity to put some GEOIP* technology into these sites to maximise potential and finances its untrue.  * In case anyone dosen't know, GEOIP is where you set up sites, pages, images or text to automatically change depending on the country of origin of the viewer. In this case, the price would drop for UK visitors to be in line with Sky's price and on the main page even promote upcoming UK show instead of given us crap like "Diva of Day".

Â I don't know I would have to check it out but I possibly have the most consistant free stream for Wrestlemania. I'll P.M you Super Cena with details if I can get it to work. It works for my mate for football but not sure about box office stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
