Jerusalem suggested making a new thread years ago (long ago enough that he was still mod) and then it was agreed we'd keep this open until it surpassed WCW itself for longevity so maybe it is time.

If you say it is time, I trust you to make it happen. We must wave Frog's banner high.

But Hulk Hogan told me he was going to dog paddle Donald Trump and his family and all the Hulkamaniacs to safety on the largest back in the world, brother? If that’s not frog behaviour I don’t know what is.

I don’t know, TBH it feels like Joey Janela’s Spring Break could just have Jung Dragons vs PG13 & Frog and it would make complete sense to everybody. Seems like the time is now for someone to revive the early 2000s WCW Cruiserweight tag scene and I can’t think of a better person than Joey Janela.

Can’t be weirder than booking Maven and that Guy Steele character for the clusterfuck.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

He is also the only reason the undertaker and cactus jack left and they were both very over when they did too. It is funny how bad he is at booking apprently.

I was going to say he wasn't bad at booking but if you haven't learned the times have changed and adapted with them then you are, in fact, bad at booking so yeah.

From what I understand he was very over in Stampede but it was a typical case of "oh, we don't want you to do the thing that makes people like you" when he got down south.
