I’ve been writing a little wrestling blog and try to do a match from “this day in history” a few times a week. I need to remember to utilize your channel a lot more when I’m trying to find watchable versions of stuff. Ooh, where's this blog then?

My blog is my username dot com. Still trying to pin down the writing style because I sometimes find myself falling back to writing beat-by-beat descriptions of the match which I don’t necessarily even enjoy doing and don’t know if anyone finds interesting to read. Hopefully some of it’s decent! If nothing else, it’s been fun having an excuse to watch old matches I’ve never seen every week. Trying to just pick random stuff and not just whatever big thing happened on a specific day in history.

I thought Lex Luger was really cool when he joined the Wolf Pac. Hell, I thought the whole Wolf Pac was really cool! I was ten years old.

Important question from the dying years of WCW: I remember Mark Madden being confronted on air and it turning out he'd legit pissed off either Sid or Steiner with a remark on commentary, which was it?

I might be misremembering but I think it was Sid. The list of LOL Meltzer quotes mentioned Madden referring to Sid being “the monkey in the middle” during a 3 way stare down or something and Sid misinterpreting that as Madden literally calling him a monkey.

I'm rewatching the entire Monday Night War/Attitude Era using this checklist: This is gonna be fun. 2 Cold Scorpio is so cringe. Everything is cringe in both WCW and WWF at the time. Wrestling was so weird in 1993 lol. I am having a great time with it though, I've never seen any wrestling this old before. I've watched no 80s stuff at all and my 90s experience is limited to the odd 90s PPVs I saw growing up and the Raw/Smackdowns I saw a while ago on WWE Network

2 Cold Scorpio slander?!?! You can badmouth so many things about that era and you choose 2 Cold Scorpio?! The nerve... It's fun to look back at older eras. There's so much interesting stuff that just never gets talked about, even by hardcore fans. The day I found out about The York Foundation was life-changing.

Even though he is cringy I am still a Scorpio fan! Maxx Payne v Marcus Bagwell  Also, Benoit was tearing it up in the lower card around this time. It's strange to see him on WCW Saturday Night way more than he was on Nitro, it felt likee: booooo cornette on my screen

Mr Hootington posted:So Ronnie Garvin left Jim Crockett because Dusty forced him to heel turn? According to Garvin there was more to it than that. Ron didn't care about being a heel, but he was irritated that it was both random and that they did it in Baltimore where Garvin was over and he felt Dusty was trying to leach Garvin's popularity to put himself over big (which might have even been true).
