One of my favourite parts of the wwe games is making guys like Nash do suicide dives and Canadian destroyers and poo poo. Not sure what this has to do with anything.

Tall Paul doing insano tilt-a-wirl head scissors is my favorite thing to do since like WWF 2000

That's kinda been Terry's thing his entire career. His brother Dory Funk Jr was the professional wrestler with the amateur background and nwa champ. And Terry was his younger wilder brother. He'd come into a territory before Dory and act like a crazy man and when the top guy would beat him it would get folks thinking oh maybe he can beat Dory too.

Eventually I'd argue that Terry became more famous than Dory at least to my generation. His crazy man persona was only amplified by his work in Japan and ECW.

Fall Brawl '89. Who thought Ranger Ross vs Sid Vicious was a good idea?

And lmao at advertising Halloween havoc '89. Feels like they are undercutting the clash that was happening.

someone is supporting the server costs with your av change costs alone

Has anyone actually tried to push a heel who is legitimately good at wrestling(kayfabe wise)? IE, they always win clean. But they remain heel because they're absolute loving shitbags about it. Just super arrogant, milking cheap heat, go over the top heel just that they technically win by the book?

Like, even Kurt Angle was a cheating little poo poo most of the time.

All that comes to mind is technically monster heel initial megapushes, in which I guess they technically don't break any rules. But I'm thinking of literally more a Kurt Angle type.

oh man I really like this old cursy peter wellers. Last time I saw him he was doing stand ups for a show on History Channel International sitting in the stone tub of some archeological dig. So now I have these two waring images of him in my mind and I think I love them both.

Halloween Havoc 1996 is one of my favorite bad wrestling shows ever because it just nosedives off a hilarious cliff at some point and ends with Piper debuting and cutting a promo that goes so long the PPV ends mid-word

When people say aew has hit wcw levels they show they just don't know the history
