the people who sit around watching 6 hours a day of talking heads staging completely fake shouting matches on ESPN but are deeply in their feelings about "Liv Morgan" being on one of those shitty talk shows are the new funniest people on social media

CPU Garret Anderson probably hit about .513 off of me over several years of video game baseball. 53 is too damn young.

THIS is the final Brian Pillman WCW TV appearance, I believe. It's the April 13/14, 1996 edition of Worldwide. On April 15, Pillman crashed his Hummer. Less than two months later, he signed with the WWF.

WCW Worldwide, aired April '96, taped several weeks prior. Flair is world champion. But Savage was when taped, and comes out with the belt, which they'd tried to stop champs from doing for Orlando tapings. Poor WCW editors do their best to avoid showing the belt. It's not easy.

"WWE is not a wrestling company. We make movies." ok well then "the movies" suck instead of "the wrestling shows." is that better? and they're worse movies than they are wrestling shows, by a lot.

Tommy Dreamer’s nuts were definitely the most targeted body part in ECW history. That he was able to produce offspring to play the daughter of Bobby and Janice Baccalieri is remarkable.

going back over ECW shows from '96 and there's so much goofy and lousy shit that if it were WCW, people would have been cooking the dead company for decades, but not ECW so much. my main theory is that not that many people, by comparison, have actually watched much ECW even all these years later

If Lena Kross were a T-800 and Megan Bayne a T-1000, or whichever way you would go there, Kamille is like the T-11 we never saw in the movies.

I think Thekla is a blast. I like Thekla. But Thekla is a pretty clear divide I have with a lot of people, too. Not in a bad way, either, just, like, ah, there's a line where you and I see wrestling promos differently.

Willow Nightingale wishes Kamille would have simply asked for a TBS title shot instead of kicking her ass. I get that. I’d also usually prefer to be asked a question instead of having my ass kicked.

when I think of "the pay window" in wrestling I always think of some older lady in a little booth in the building who's long tired of the job and asks the wrestlers their names and then if they won or lost but the thing is, she knows if they won or lost, she's testing their honesty

might be moving Dezmond Xavier to Rascalz single role w/Reed/Wentz teaming tomorrow. probably the right call if so. Reed has the most upside, Wentz the least (sry!), but Reed’s not going to get singles push on this roster any time soon. Xavier usable in Competitive Loser role, would hurt Reed more.
