cobra_gordo Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Watched Hogan/Michaels from Summerslam this morning for the first time in a long time. I still don't know if Hogan is genuinely pissed at Michaels for his theatrics or if he's doing an amazing job of selling his frustration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members JNLister Posted April 21, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted April 21, 2017 I've just discovered there's a wrestling circuit on the Channel Islands that last summer had Ophidian from Chikara and Joe E Legend (ie Just Joe) as regulars, with Tatanka as the guest visitor.

boshealecta Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 I love Michaels over selling, feels like it actually works in a Hogan match and adds to the theatrics. Didn't realise at the time he was doing it ott to irritate the Hulkster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted April 23, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted April 23, 2017 Total Divas is the best product WWE currently produces. By a country mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably because it's produced by E! and not WWE? (I don't know that is the case, I'm making a presumption, it could well be a WWE production for E!).

WyattSheepMask Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 I'm assuming that WWE must have some hand in ownership of it, otherwise it (along with Total Bellas) wouldn't be on the network unless they were paying for it, which I don't see Vince doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Gorilla Monsoon coming on screen at the start of a '96 RAW and openly talking about Warrior missing dates just had me going WTF?!? I don't remember that at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 I remember it, but I think I saw it on Mania or whatever else was on at the time. Being a little kid, I had no idea what an "appearance bond" was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a long-term forum lurker and first-time poster, this made me smile. I work for CIWW in the Channel Islands, so it's always nice to see when we've made waves outside of our tiny little catchment area. One slight correction, though - it was actually two years ago that we had Tatanka over, and as well as regular appearances from Ophidian and Joe E Legend, we had two guest wrestlers from STHLM Wrestling in Sweden, The Great Kaiju and Jack The Strangler, that year. Last year, we had Joe E Legend over for two shows, and a weekend with CHIKARA talent; Ophidian, Drew Gulak, Frightmare, Heidi Lovelace, Princess Kimber Lee and Soldier Ant.

Guest Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Hey who here was doing the write ups for every WWE title change and is that still going? Was enjoying reading those very much but not seen an update in a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I've probably posted something like this before but what was Vince thinking when he gave Rob Bartlett a job? He was easily one of, if not the worst thing about those early Raw episodes. At least it didn't take long until Vince came to his senses and canned him.

WyattSheepMask Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Bartlett was c popular radio personality in New York at the time, so Vince was probably hoping to use Barlett for exposure for RAW being WWF's flagship show. It became quite apparent that Barlett knew nothing in the slightest about wrestling and I can only assume he wasn't willing to learn and got dhitcanned pretty quickly as a result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted April 26, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted April 26, 2017 The only thing more baffling than Bartlett is Art Donovan. WTF was that about? He had no idea at all what was going on or what the WWF was about. Hadn't been prepped at all and sounded like a child asking questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
