TL posted:So apparently WWE is going to be having the next Elimination Chamber PPV somewhere in or around New York. I'm thinking of going. How is the EC match from a live audience perspective? I love those matches, but I'm worried that the cage could be obstructive to a live audience. Thought I'd quote since it got buried in dicks.

In a similar vein, can anyone post the picture of the HHH rape face from Elimination Chamber 2010?

apsouthern posted:This one? Perfect. It's going to be upsetting to see that we won't get another instance like this again this year, unless somehow HHH manages to be shoe-horned into the main event scene. I wonder what perhaps Orton would look like with the beam of light in a similar vein. Or Sheamus, even.

Funny. In the 2 minutes I spent reading about Halo 1's plot (refreshment after beating Reach)...I just found out "Vladimir Koslov" is a major character in the Halo-universe (the books I guess?). Wonder if there was inspiration found there.

How does a slow motion entrance like John Morrison's work on live TV? Do they cut ahead a second or two somewhere after, or does the tape delay just increase by a few seconds for the rest of the show?

Just think of it like a strobe light.

Shoe-horned? "And the 6th man to enter the elimination chamber ..." TIMETOEPLAYTHEGAME!MUAHAHAHAHAH ... It's not exactly a twist. HHH comes back, HHH becomes #1 contender by virtue of HHH being HHH.

Endorph posted:All the reports I've heard say the cage is pretty obstructive, but if you have seats with a decent view of the tron you should be fine. I went to No Way Out in Seattle a couple years back. It wasn't as bad as I thought it might have been, although I also did have a view of the Tron too for when the action was on the other side of the ring. I'd definitely go if you get the chance.

"The next day, I sat down with both Guns and asked for the whole story behind the big misunderstanding from a year earlier. I know readers will want to know the story behind the misunderstanding but after giving the subject much thought, I decided that the details are for them to tell, not me. Their rational was pretty intricate but completely understandable, and I asked them if they'd ever explained their side of the story to Jeff. They had not. [...] The talk must have gone OK, because four months later they're all in the same ring, making nice" The above extract is from Mick Foley's new book, essentially claiming to have helped save the MCMGs career in TNA. Not being a TNA follower, but being (at one time) a big Foley fan and quite a big MCMG fan, does anyone know what the "misunderstanding" was? The only thing that springs to mind is a vague recollection of some story about them not wanting to blade, but I think that was earlier?

I think it's just that they didn't want to blade for some match/angle. Not sure which one. I think it was in the middle of the 3D/X Division feud because they had a MCMG/Lethal vs. 3D/Devine blowoff match where the MCMG got hit with 3Ds about halfway into the match, completely disappeared, and Lethal wrestled the last half of the match by himself and won.

I think that's the correct match. If I remember correctly, they didn't want to blade because there was a "Barbed Wire Massacre" Match (I think it was this... that or some other bullshit bloodfest) between Abyss and Sabu. They were right not to. If there's a match where part of its appeal is to see buckets of blood, it's silly to have guys bleeding in other matches on the same card.

Does anyone know how I can get a hold of Jimmy Del Ray? I need to ask him if he feels the Steiners vs. the Heavenly Bodies from SummerSlam '93 was the greatest match he ever had to answer a bet.

They were slotted almost right after the Abyss/Judas Mesias barbed wire match, which would have made the blood mean nothing.

If anyone reading this thread has seen JCW Vol. 1, is that Dave Prazak managing the Rock 'N Roll Express during the battle royal? The voice is right, but I'm still not entirely sure.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Foley tell a story in his first book of almost the same situation? He'd bleed in a match if the other matches on the card toned it down, to find out the opener was a first blood battle royal?

Cant remember the details of the story but the match was Cactus and Luna vs Eddie Gilbert and Medusa in the Tri-State Wrestling fed that later became ECW. And aparently The Sandman won the battle royal.

Talking about Booker T's WCW theme song in another thread got me thinking about the generic songs WCW used to use. I distinctly remember some of them being used in porno. Does anyone know the story behind them?

They keep using Crash Holly's theme on Top Gear.

I'd swear I heard the nWo theme used in something I was watching, but I can't remember what.

I have a feeling if the nWo theme were up for grabs, TNA would be using it like they are the Wolfpac theme. Then again, they remade Booker T's theme and Ric Flair's theme even though they could have used either one.

It sounded more epic (which was right for that point in his career)
