HBK vs Undertaker, Royal Rumble Foley/Funk vs The Outlaws Austin vs Dude Love, Over the Edge Rock vs HHH, SummerSlam Undertaker vs Mankind, KOTR Halftime Heat Undertaker v Austin, Fully Loaded E&C vs Hardyz, No Mercy. These are the only good matches of 98/99.

All Japan was funny in that period because they started to get stale quality wise and drawing wise which meant like, 4.75 star matches instead of 5, brought Vader in and were awesome for another year before the split. In funny feud news, The Snob was complaining how he didn't want soy boys from Dragon Gate to infiltrate NOAH, got into an argument with Trevor and lost so badly he locked his account. Only have one screenshot of the exchange but it's pure Wrestling Done Right.

History Comes Inside! posted:The gently caress was I going to get out of watching even 12 seconds of some lovely val venis match It's hard to find a clearer indication of how weak the WWF midcard was when you think about how he was one of the workhorses of the early Attitude Era. In retrospect, the attempts to try to make something out of him in 1999 and 2000 really feels like a case of sunk-cost fallacy. When a worn-down, late career Mick Foley and a hotter-than-lava Rikishi are bumping like motherfuckers trying to make something of you and nothing ends up sticking, it's really time to move the gently caress on. edogawa rando fucked around with this message at 19:27 on Oct 19, 2022 |

Like I'm sorry, even Riho would probably kick your butt in a real fight, and generally the story of those matches isn't "Darby overpowered Brodie King" Especially since it's never directed at genuinely small wrestlers like Marco Stunt, it's always Darby, Adam Cole, or more recently Hook.

Trying to imagine how many executives in real professions would keep their job after biting a colleague. (Also he wasn't actually an executive was he? So it's more like keeping your job after biting your boss)

I remember reading rumors that TK would have been more likely to sign off on that appearance earlier in the year -whether because Gunn wasn't really on TV before the Acclaimed storyline really grew legs, or because of the attempted talent poaching WWE engaged in soured him to cooperation with them. But yeah, it's not like WWE would repay the favor and have Charlotte cheer Andrade on during a match or have Cody's name still attached to the training gym his family runs.

I don't really have an opinion on slapfighting but if our country will glorify the CTE factory that is football, I don't see why grown men can't consent to taking turns getting domed.

I would prefer people suffer fewer real injuries for my entertainment, though I also never stopped to think maybe slaps are as dangerous as some of the ridiculous things wrestlers do. I'm also a dumb mark who gets kind of put off by stuff like barb wire matches or non trick weapons hitting people though not enough to say psychos like Kingston or Mox who love that stuff shouldn't be allowed to. All of them should get taken care of medically and deserve a union imo

lol even the comments are full of how actually the poor jobber who was nearly killed by unsafe liberties being taken (which is 100% different than when wrestlers would work stiff in the regions era btw) is just covering for Athena because she's afraid of what would happen if she speaks out who are you gonna believe? The wrestler and fans who know who she is? Or the experts who didn't even realize she wasn't Kylie King tbf when I first saw the gif I thought it might have been Kilynn too, just because of the hair, but at least I know who she is and her name.
