SatansOnion posted:is there some other wrestler named Dusty Rhodes who I haven't heard of, to whom this poster might be referring? Because the one I remember had many qualities, some of them without peer in his field, but he definitely looked to me like an adherent of the extremely old-fashioned "rich foods, booze, and cigars" school of physical conditioning yeah, but he's probably not referring to the one i know. the other one i know was a 2x NCAA (division 3) national folkstyle wrestling champion and he was just a lil feller at 130-something pounds. he coaches wrestling in iowa

apophenium posted:The AEW show I went to a guy yelled "You look like a horse" at Aubrey Edwards and me and my wife and everyone around us yelled at him to shut da gently caress up. I think some people are just lovely and like to be lovely in public and that stinks i was at dynamite in newark a couple weeks back and there was a guy in his late 30s, early 40s with not a ton of hair left, but had an undying amount of enthusiasm for christian cage. he was in the sleeveless turtleneck, coiffed his hair into cage's style the best he could, and carried a cardboard (but well-made) tnt title. when cole and the kingdom came out to talk and the crowd started the "he's our scumbag" chant, jersey christian bellowed out the best he could "christian cay-age" over and over for the duration. it was endearing and hilarious. im glad the two shows i went to had no real shitheads yelling shithead stuff

ive got a buddy who watches weekly wwe and aew, but he also pays for ROH and NJPW world plus ppvs from AAA, GCW, and all the indies come mania weekend, plus a chronological rewatch of WCW. suffice to say he's a loving sicko who does all that and listens to podcasts and reads books and not the normal member of the WWE Universe (TM)

real sports rule because players don't have the freedom or agency to go to a different place to play in a style that better suits them or maybe offers more money. im a fan of boston sports teams, and all of those championships came from homegrown talent only. i remember drafting manny ramirez and david ortiz and josh beckett and kevin foulke and jason varitek like it was yesterday. almost as vividly as i remember "breaking the curse" in 2004

For some of us our reasonable childhood goal was to run a Stepfather Factory so we need more output. For My Upstairs Neighbor (Mums the Word) is a masterpiece and I'll Sleep When You're Dead might be my favorite rap album title ever. You're right, El better put some solo stuff out

i know wrestling attracts some weirdos (i say, looking deadeyed into my mirror) but are there people showing up to USC games in OJ shirts or Rae Curruth at Panthers games or Jimmy Saville cosplay at the BBC or whatever? that seems like a really wrestling fan thing to do, given the cheers ive heard for some real fuckin' monsters

El Generico posted:The context for that has changed a ton, too. Back then, PPV was a much larger chunk of a company's overall revenue, these days, TV rights fees are a way bigger one, so it makes sense to put big matches on TV.

id pick any elder millennial who was decently successful as a high school wrestler and weighs 200-ish pounds to beat phil in a fight. if you say "double leg" at him, he falls to the ground and does his best impression of a turtle trying to get off its back and gets misty eyed in frustration as he fails to do so
