Paid Members air_raid Posted May 19, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted May 19, 2015 I can't decide which ppv poster I like best: Backlash 2009 or Payback 2015. Â I'm going with the Backlash poster because Randy looks sexier in that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members WWFChilli Posted May 20, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) I mentioned it in another thread, but I've been journeying through the 1996 Nitro's and I get such a kick out of Woman during the Horsemen interviews with Mean Gene, constantly touching him up, it's absolutely hilarious. She's a performer I've never really given much thought too, but she had some interesting runs when you look at her overall career, she seems underrated, unless that's just my perception. Â While were on it, the 96 Horsemen are the biz, Flair, Arn, Mongo & Benoit are ace together with Flair's harem of lasses. Flair being Flair, it heavily implies that Liz is banging him, Arn Anderson delivering brilliant promos, Mongo being a nutjob and them all just pissing themselves quaffing food and champagne on Elizabeth's divorce money from Savage. Aces. Edited May 20, 2015 by WWFChilli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 There's an awesome Flair moment when Benoit first joins up with the Horsemen. I can't remember the exact episode (it's in either May or June ) but they are all say in Flair's VIP section and Benoit, for the first time since he joined WCW, utters the words "silent but violent" and Flair practically ejaculates with excitement. Flair was fucking brilliant back then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members WWFChilli Posted May 20, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted May 20, 2015 Had that on a few days back, Flair singing La Cucaracha constantly at the mention of facing Konnan is superbly amusing. Flair is a ball of fun in 1996. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members WWFChilli Posted May 20, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted May 20, 2015 Has anyone read JTG's ebook? I heard that for 60 pages it's fucking hilarious. Apparently loads of stories about wrestlers being carny weirdos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dart Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 It's a fun quick read that was worth 65p. Some interesting stories. Full of spelling errors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I'd echo that sentiment. I read it on a train journey and it was a great way to pass the time.Clearly didn't have any proper proofreading or anything, but the errors don't distract from the stories. In terms of value, it's one of the best wrestling books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted May 21, 2015 Moderators Share Posted May 21, 2015 Lance Russell looks fantastic for his age on the Lawler doc. He'll live forever seemingly, and I can't think of anything I want to happen more than that. 89 and still sharp as a tack. Here he is presenting a Memphis Memories doc on TV this year with Dave Brown (who also looks great), he's not lost a step broadcasting either.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQGLw9A3nBA  I bet if he started announcing again he'd still be one of the best too.

Fanny Pack Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 JR, Michael Cole and Kevin Kelly make a really smooth announce team on the first Raw of 1998. Don't remember them being that good. Agreed. Whats the story behind the Shane and Cornette Raw announce team on an episode in Sep 1998. Â 1998 WWF is fascinating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted May 23, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted May 23, 2015 Didn't Shane and Cornette announce the U.S. version of Sunday Night Heat around that time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandingo's Donger Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Â JR, Michael Cole and Kevin Kelly make a really smooth announce team on the first Raw of 1998. Don't remember them being that good. Agreed. Whats the story behind the Shane and Cornette Raw announce team on an episode in Sep 1998. Â 1998 WWF is fascinating.
