They were going to re-debut Hall that way, but they changed their minds. That whole angle was retarded.

And just recently, WWE had Vince McMahon "fatally injured" by a falling set literally less than twenty-four hours after a TNA crew member died this way. Writers aren't always caught up on current events and don't always think about how one connects to the other.

I just checked and its the right year, but wikipedia specifically says the child predator thing. Dunno why I had in my head that it was columbine related.

DJ Ran had nothing to do with the No Limit Soldiers. He was just a DJ that hyped the crowd during commercials and segued into the Nitro Girls. Before this, though, they kept putting him on goddamn TV where his DJ booth would be covered with SURGE bottles for product placement and he'd just scream "Aight, y'all! Make some NOIIIIIISE!" over and over again. He was loving terrible. Word is, though, after they took him off television and he just played music and poo poo during the ads, he was a pretty good addition to the live show. And the Nitro Girls ruled. gently caress the haters.

It was so disappointing considering Russo had been out for a couple of months with a concussion or something, and left the booking to more level-headed people who gave Lance Storm the greatest push of his life. Russo came back and buried him in one match in his home country.

MassRayPer posted:I think King of the Ring 99 and Fall Brawl 98 come very close or maybe fall below NBR's depths. NBR at least ends with a decent match and begins with a spot fest even if it was stupidly overbooked. I'm not sure if those shows insult the fan's intelligence the way NBR does though. But Fall Brawl does pretty much kill WCW's best gimmick match dead which is saying something. Reven Vs. Saturn is one of the best matches I've ever seen and the rest of the show sand Wargames match, which was good for marks, was just fine. Wazzu posted:Apparenly on a forklift, actually. But some things don't sound.....too bad. Plus bad show reviews are normally quite amusing. Dude. This is asking a lot, but if you've got one more "It's really very simple..." in you, I would love to hear it for New Blood Rising.

Sting wants the Shawn Michaels deal up-front. No house shows, tons of money, five dates a month. It likely won't happen until Vince is really hard up for a Hall of Fame inductee and Sting doesn't work for TNA anymore. So maybe about two weeks.

He most certainly is. He's booked terribly, but he's basically the same he's ever been in that when he's given a good opponent, he can have a hell of a match. If he's given a lovely opponent, it gets a little boring.

Heyman and Cornette both have their strong points and both have their weak points. The only real difference is that Heyman lies to everybody pretty much all the time.

I got poo poo on for suggesting this earlier, but I still think if you show up as your fictional character only TOTALLY NOT BECAUSE I'M USING MY OWN NAME, it's really just as bad as Robocop.
