I've watched a lot of wrestling documentaries produced by totally unbiased sources and I can say that Hayes is the best talker and showman of all time. He also invented the idea of entrance music and charisma. Easily too 5 for all-time sex appeal.

The Freebirds were a pretty cool team and it's a testament to Michael Hayes that he's managed to make them less cool by running that "I'm a Freebird!" poo poo into the ground.

Luigi Thirty posted:There's probably a better analogy but that's the first thing that came to mind. It only fits if Dolph Ziggler and Daniel Bryan run out to make the save at the end only for Ziggler to turn heel off camera and attack Bryan for no reason and have the entire match and everyone in it immediately upstaged by Great Khali dressed as a mummy who dryhumps everyone in the ring while Cole and JBL put him over like Stone Cold.

Michael Hayes is the only person who has ever made me drop my mouth open in shock, in any media ever. On the CM Punk DVD, he's one of the talking heads, and he said "Everyone knew Punk was good, but there were some people in the head office who didn't agree, and did what they could to hold him down." When Michael Hayes was literally one of those people.  It takes a special level of revisionist history to say there was a problem you were part of, and that you were not part of the problem.

Has this been posted yet? Looked back a few pages and didn't see it. Because, uhhh... somebody hosed for the Universal HD cut of Raw and left in a rough cut of the Bryan interview which ended with him discussing the script with a writer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nK7ZL6c-C4

Codependent Poster posted:Uh, hearing wrestlers be like "how was that?" when asking about how they said lines people wrote for them is so sad. From the sound of it, Bryan's actually given a loose outline. He was asking if that run was better because of how he was pushing Roman out then Putting him over after, but the guy was asking Bryan to compromise by saying wrestling a little less. Looks like he might have a little leeway with his script.

My favorite Hayes claim is him being fully responsible for Taker Michaels 1 at Mania. Yeah, you were the agent and maybe you did get them more time, but I think the fact that the two guys in the ring are both top 5 GOAT contenders probably helped a bit more.

 My favorite basketball team, the Memphis Grizzlies, had a Wrestling Night. It was amazing. There was a ring set up in the area reserved for the house band, and Lawler beat some jobber billed from OKC (they were playing the Oklahoma City Thunder). The Grizzlyweight Championship Belt is shockingly nice for a free giveaway, too. Pleather and solid metal for the faceplates. (totally worth getting there an hour before the doors opened and three hours before tip) I'm just really happy that the team embraces the wrestling heritage Memphis has.

They're not, you know, HUGE like an actual championship belt, but they're a decent size. Kinda like the NWA title. It looks really good prominently displayed with all my other Grizz memorabilia.

Daniel Bryan posted:Sgt Slaughter was interviewed a few days ago and said people were mad Bryan was eliminated from the Rumble because they couldn't chant Yes anymore. Can I just go back to this post for a second? Because I wonder if Sgt. Slaughter remembers that he was part of possibly the single biggest disaster in Wrestlemania history. Or that said disaster involved a wrestler being drastically overpushed for his talent level inside a very short window of time as part of a storyline with no credibility that everyone hated so much it destroyed both the buyrate and the live gate. I wonder if he also remembers that two much more popular wrestlers, including one who was among the best overall performers in the world in his era, were relegated to having a midcard match against each other while said overpushed wrestler was taking their main event spot. Or that said midcard match ended up being easily match of the night and the emotional climax of the show, thereby even further burying the complete failure of a main event. But no, I'm sure Sarge is right and people just like chanting Yes. No throwing stones from inside a glass house going on here.
