Angry_Ed posted:Mike Sanders being a possible NWA title contender might actually be more dire than "Nick Aldis, NWA Champion". What the hell did everyone see in Mike Sanders? He was by far the best promo of the Natural Born Thrillers which meant that he got a lot of screen and feuds as WCW shut down.

Mike Sanders 2000 is a strong contender for most overpushed wrestler in history. In the same year of Jeff Jarrett's 2000, even.

I dont disagree. The new talent that WCW featured for 2000 was pretty dire at that time and really out of the bunch, only Jindrak/Corleone ever really broke out.

Hi hopefully i wont get into trouble for this but i'd like to hear your guys opinions about this podcast i i did. I chatted with Finnish prowrestler Starbuck about the subject of "Heel" and what it really means. The original idea was to understand why so many MMA guys want to try to be a heel. But we ended up chatting about prowrestling, and what makes a good heel nowadays. I think Buck has good points but he is pretty old school guy with old school opinions. Give it a listen if you will. https://soundcloud.com/amiuparinen/kuparisen-kulma-the-rebell-starbuck

Was not expecting a StarBuck interview popping up here. He's a v. good wrestler and the reason this dumb thing even exists in Finland at this point. And yeah he's very oldschool and I disagree with his personal politics a lot but he does know how to be the bad guy (I do have to admit I cheered for him at the last event because the babyface sucks poo poo) and can switch it up when necessary, too.

Listened to the thing. I don't think there's anything too new or groundbreaking, but it was still a good listen and I did like how StarBuck said he realizes his personal politics are against the current mainstream (well... at least in the more urban areas of Finland) which makes him the heel by default, and he has no problem leaning on that fact to make his heeling more effective. It's just too bad the main babyface currently positioned against him in FCF is not a particularly good wrestler nor does he have my sympy. Also, he might be a bit too old school to see that the nature of the babyface/heel dynamic is changing and has in some part already changed. Okada vs Omega didn't really have a clear heel (Okada, purely by the virtue of people desperately wanting Omega to win), but the emotional stakes in that match were sky high - only because the stories they told leading up to and in that match were so excellently told. It can be done without the classic kind of the heel vs face dynamic... it's just much harder. a cyborg mug fucked around with this message at 09:47 on Jun 15, 2018 |

Warning this is not a wrestling podcast and may not appeal to literally anyone. But after Venter finishes his 10 minute story about making a mixtape on a summer vacation this becomes a really entertaining discussion of outsider/bad music and road trips. https://twitter.com/mongo_ebooks/status/1008117138421362689

I'm really curious how TNA-paid(lol) media would frame the first few years of the company. Most the TV spots when they talked about it were kinda handwavey like "we had a bunch of cool stars come through and they paved the way for the current crop of talent" kind of stuff.
