Nice to note that the MMA suplexes are far safer on the body than anything that's come out of Japanese wrestling over the last 20 years.

Nobody dies in MMA after a suplex.

ROH really loving annoys me when it comes to this poo poo. At some point, I started to download every clip related to CM Punk in ROH that became popular, because they're jsut loving notorious about not wanting this poo poo online. Unfortuantely, I kept forgetting to get the full entrance for his last match, which (if I'm not mistaken) isn't on the Summer of Punk dvd, and was only present online in the form of one clip on one of the gaming websites (gamespot, I think?).

Almost makes me wish a different company would take over, so that we can get this poo poo online.

ROH is trying to funnel their money towards the Ringside Membership when it comes to old clips of stuff.

The problem is, it'd be perfectly fine for them to take down ROH content if they ran a Youtube and put the content up themselves. I posted an Arn Anderson promo on Youtube recently. If WWE gets it taken down that's fine, just throw the same clip online properly at top quality and make some money on the ads. That way there isn't still a big burning hole.

I think Paul London still rents his house out for porn stars, so maybe he just tossed a wrestling/porn party and they ended up becoming besties?

The look on Luger's face :stare:

I still think the WWF blew a huge opportunity by not having Luger turn to the Million Dollar Corporation and take on Bret at SummerSlam. Not that I ever read that as the booking but more of a hindsight viewpoint. Made more sense for Luger to join the Corporation instead of Tatanka, unless that was Vince's crazy way to say, "Indians will sell themselves out for money! GET IT CASINOS HAHAHA JACKHAMMER"

Lufisto and Davey Richards. Lufisto is like 5'2".

Davey is very small. Met him in ROH in Michigan (not "Hey Davey" because I probably would have mentioned him blocking me on Twitter and I have no idea what mood he was in. Didn't want him Jiu-Jitsuing all over me) and I'd guess him at 5'6". Edwards looked a legit 6" but Edwards didn't look no 5'8".

Generico has nothing to worry about it when it comes to selling his gimmick over. I mean, not having the gimmick might hurt him in the WWE for awareness but if Generico went back to the indies and had to work as Rami Sebei he'd still get plenty of work for plenty of pay.

Say what you will about ICP's music, (shitful) fans (shitfuller) and politics (shitfullest), they are apparently the least carny wrestling promotion in the USA. Dudes paid on time, bonuses for high gate takings, treat the talent well etc.

"Treat the Talent well" = Get them free drugs.

They are carny, just in the opposite direction.
