Yes hello it is I Kurt's Secret Son


Deadlock is going back to the basics: bad wcw


quote:

We are back with good old WCW Thunder, this year in 1999! Glacier is sick of his character and is looking to sell his gimmick. Backstage he’s talking to The Cat and Sonny Onoo and auctioning off parts of his wrestling character. From his entrance to his attire he sells it all, even his EYE! Also, we get a bunch of matches in the WCW Tag Team Tournament! Plus, Raven acts like a spoiled rich kid and takes Kanyon shopping and clubbing with his family’s money!

which I am super down for. I think these Raven skits with Kanyon and Sandman are loving hilarious. But my first exposure to ECW was finding it by accident after they started airing on TNN. So I was never bought into the lore about Raven. I didn't see all that stuff until years later thanks to pwtorrents.

I got the impression the whole like, Rich Kid Raven thing was one of those things you see happen in wrestling where someone got over doing one thing so now let's strip all that away and see if they can do it again with a completely different gimmick....except I don't know if there was ever any idea of where it'd go other other than being another dumb comedy skit on the show that already full of them

I mean, he'd also already done that gimmick in WWF as Johnny Polo.

I got a short in my feed whining about the finish to the Toni Storm match last night because apparently vaginas are impervious to pain. And every comment was just the absolute most braindead, never-even-spoken-to-a-person-with-a-vag bullshit with a dollop of transphobia for good measure.

I can't imagine what this is gonna look like.

Uh I am positive that noted documentary series “king of the hill” showed that being kicked in the vag is just fine

Toni storm disagrees with Hank hill on a great many things, including gigantic asses

So I'm finally listening to the Trish and Sarah Podcast that was linked regarding Punk and my immediate thoughts are that these two are so good at this in ways 99% of wrestling podcasters just aren't, and that there was so much to the Punk situation (like losing the ESPN coverage?! Holy poo poo) that I had no idea about. It's a great listen. This is an easy sub. There's so much knowledge and clear professionalism and research that is coming out in what they're saying. It's refreshing.

And when they mentioned the collision announcement poster and that whole day being a poo poo show,I went "oh yeah, He was a giant baby that day too"

I had completely forgotten about the collision announcement debacle.

I am in full agreement and absolutely do not envy these two their inbox

I am sure that the worst dudes on the internet have just been dumping pure id into whatever email address or twitter handle they can find, because Trish and Sarah said all sorts of things that fragile men do not like hearing women say

And they are absolutely correct, lol

Also, James melting down on deadlock over Mike enos and Bobby duncum jr is sending me because they were my boys when I was a kid

For the deadlock patreon videos do they show footage of what they're discussing or is it like the regular podcasts where they are reacting to stuff you can't see?

Just curious, been interested in watching their react videos and the deadlock sync versions are so good

It's all got the videos included, nothing you have to manually sync up with video from elsewhere or anything like that.
