Cena showed footage this past week of himself doing a 440 pound bench press and 352 pound snatch. That's not a sexual reference.

If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.

Wowzers. In all legitimacy I don't think anything beats the Squat

I love the video description.

quote:

WWE Superstar john cena squat 600 pounds suggesting that wrestling involves strength and power

Wrestling may in fact involve strength and power? Hmmm....

EDIT: it's wrong about the weight though

Cena posted:

To clear up all the false interpretation that has derived from the pause squat video, bar weight is 396 pounds or 180 kilos. Thank you.

I really, really enjoyed the Jim Ross/Bret Hart interview, I feel his shows have been a hell of a lot better recently.

Absolute highlight of the interview was (paraphrased):

Bret Hart: Teddy Hart is killing professional wrestling!


What's Bret's audio like? Every single podcast I've ever heard Bret on has him sounding like he's both dying and in the middle of eating while talking on a cellphone in a subway tunnel.

I did catch the bit where Lawlor was complaining about unequal treatment of fighters, and Dave told him "better fighters get better treatment, it's always been this way" haha.

I did, the first 5 minutes they talk about people bitching about Cena's promo on Monday. Then they talk about when Lance advised TNA and ROH. I don't think Lance said anything bad, was pretty fun.

I enjoyed the mental image of the Meltzer house overrun with Young Buck Babies doing unnecessary flips off all the furniture.

Or maybe I'm the only one who pictured that when Bryan mentioned Dave being the kids godfather

It was fun, Lance gets in some really neat dry humor digs on Bryan, and his explanation of the difference in how TNA and ROH dealt with his feedback (that THEY requested) is pretty interesting.

Yeah this B&V&C is if not at then very close to peak 40 year old men acting like schoolkids. Also Bryan took the Network whining to a point where even I wanted to punch him in the face. There was a burial of Babinsack though.

Their reaction to the drop where a bunch of words were needlessly censored made me very uncomfortable.

like I feel bad for Russo because he's clearly mentally ill but at the same time, some of the poo poo he's pulled over the years is inexcusable, no matter what his mental state is.

also for a writer, he's probably one of the most illiterate fucks I've ever seen.

I don't know where they come up with these stories but it's now canon that Kenny Bolin will trade knockoff merchandise for a dozen hamburgers cooked in a trailer in a Popeye's parking lot and then make Jim buy him Popeye's anyway. I love when they just start going back and forth cracking each other up and Alice has no clue what's even going on anymore.
