Today I learned that picking up someone who has gone fully dead weight and is not cooperating at all and is in fact slapping my shoulder repeatedly to indicate "HEY I DON'T WANNA DO THIS." and then driving them through a table on the back of their head is protecting them. I am very intelligent.

The ref right next to them and ringside doc popping for the powerbomb really helped sell it

The way this company makes even the people who merely talk about it insane on a long enough timeline is impressive and should be studied with just as much intensity as studying how much things needed to go perfectly right for a Barbie film to be both the smartest, and the most immediately (if not most in general) financially successful, film release of the year

You know how when that ferrofluid stuff is subjected to a magnetic charge it makes it clump up in these interesting spiky shapes that it would never make without the charge, shapes no other fluid would typically express? The trick when thinking about a wrestler from the fed is to not let your mild disagreement with one or another aspect of their reputation serve as the magnetic charge that forces you into wild stances like "this is the only wrestler anyone has ever been unsympathetic towards", stances which seem super strange, if interesting, to anybody not magnetised in the exact same way.

I was watching some Cultaholic list videos recently and two things of interest about Taboo Tuesday:

- The first one had the lowest attendance in WWE PPV history at 3,500 people.

- They did a list of wrestlers who only main-evented one WWE PPV, not counting Royal Rumble matches but counting Survivor Series tag matches. Ric Flair vs. Randy Orton in a cage match at the first Taboo Tuesday is Flair's one and only main event on a WWE PPV. Thanks a lot, Sid.

It was during that first era where they tried brand specific pay per views with their watered down rosters and it was on a freakin' Tuesday. It is no surprise that it was a mess. They have less incentive to try something so dumb now, but they're clearly not against gimmicks and there's less risk now that they killed ppvs. It's time to less us choose if Cody and Dom should fight in a prison yard brawl, a rubber chicken on a pole match or a Mountain Dew Death Match.

There's no way on Earth Hulk would allow himself to not main event WM8 regardless of opponent. Especially since it and its gong show finish was used to have Warrior return (which blew up anyway)

Hogan would still have been in the main event. It just would have been against Flair.

I thought the main reason they didn't do that was because Sid had it in his contract and they had to write around it.

Yeah they promised Sid a Hogan match at Mania to get him to jump but the reason they didn't do Hogan/Flair is it drew terribly for WWF as a house show program. Of course that says a lot about WWF booking at the time that they couldn't get a Flair/Hogan program to draw

Flair and Hogan never really jelled in WCW. The matches were a little better with the roles reversed when Hogan turned heel but still not very good.
