Is that the same Maria that Mick Foley had a problem with? I never read his third book and didn't pay attention to TNA or anything at the time, what was with that whole debacle?

Cavauro posted:Maybe it was Melina. She refused to have sex witgh Mick Foley even though he called her beautiful, which really got his goat Oh yeah, Melina, I'm sorry. I got the two confused. I just remember people talking about how they lost a lot of respect for Foley because of what happened with her and how he gets really creepy about it in his third book. I've just never seen it explained beyond what I've already typed, so I was wondering if someone could elaborate.

One of my favorite J-E-DOUBLE-F-J-A-DOUBLE-R-E-DOUBLE-T-HA-HA moments is when his action figure couldn't have "Don't Piss Me Off!" on the shirt, so it was changed to "Don't **** Me Off!" which is so much worse.

So is there a reason a bunch of WWE wrestlers are suddenly being given finishers that were made popular by stars from twenty years ago? Kevin Owens doing the Stunner, Wyatt doing the mandible claw, I'm pretty sure Ziggler has been using a superkick, etc.

Don't worry, I'm not MassRafTer, I'm not going to insist that Santino was always terrible simply because I personally wasn't a fan of his work.

I have no idea, but at least he's about to be written off television because Fox wants more of a sports-like presentation without so much authority bullshit. It's a shame, I was actually excited to see Shane after so many years away when he came back in 2014 or whenever. Then he proceeded to dominate loving everything and bury people just like his dad.

Shine posted:I think Brock's 2014 squash of Cena got four stars. Cena had two brief hope spots, but otherwise got destroyed for like 15 minutes. We couldn't enjoy that match as much as we would've liked because we were at my friend's house for the PPV and his wife's special needs little brother was there and he was inconsolable as a huge John Cena fan.

Did Crush just start using the same facepaint from his Demolition days when he became "Japanese Sympathizer Crush"? Also, when I was a kid, I always wanted a pair of Adam Bomb glasses. At a house show in the early 90s I was in the front row and Bret Hart gave me his glasses. The cord was already broken and the foam around the edges was soaked in Bret sweat. I threw them out on the way home because I didn't like him at the time and they smelled loving terrible. I was nine years old.

I really enjoyed his run as best friends with Kevin Owens, culminating in the Festival of Friendship and I believe the first time someone turned heel on him instead of the other way around. And he sold it so well. "...how come my name's on this?"

Schneider Heim posted:When wrestlers debut a new move or finisher, the commentary team is usually given a heads up on what it's called, right? Has there been instances wherein the wrestler themselves say what the move's called? That reminds me of Survivor Series 1990 when the Undertaker was supposed to be a surprise mystery man that nobody but Dibiase and Brother Love knew about, and then Gorilla yells "TOMBSTONE!!" when Taker hits it the very first time.

Every once in a while I'm reminded of that Disturbed song and that the lyrics sounded like "Step off 'cause you're the next woman I'm gonna kill you don't believe it but I'm betting that you will" And I'm pretty sure the chorus is "I'M KILLING THE LIVING INSIDE YOU" which is loving embarrassing.

Hellblazer187 posted:Yeah that's what I was talking about. Not TNA, but the still from that Australian tour used in the Grantland article header is one of the saddest things I've ever seen in wrestling. Just a tired Ric Flair covered in blood gasping at a tired Hulk Hogan covered in blood. Grantland - The Wrestler in Real Life Reminder that this was eight years ago before Flair married his fifth wife. Because he's totally fine.

CopywrightMMXI posted:When Sid had his “winning streak” during the Goldberg feud was it played up seriously or tongue in cheek? I may be giving WCW too much credit, but I believe it was supposed to be comical. They misspelled "millennium" the entire time, and they would do things like have Sid appear on Nitro with 33-0 and then on Thunder with 37-0 even though he only had one victory in between, and Heenan would say "That's because he beat three people up in the back before he came out here tonight!"

Ganso Bomb posted:I know some guys in WCW used to do it, but not with the effect of the coins spilling everywhere. I think there's also a story of one of the Rougeau Brothers knocking out one of the British Bulldogs backstage (or vice versa) sometime in the 80s with the same method. It was Jacques retaliating against Dynamite's usual bullshit. He went backstage and knocked out a few of Kid's teeth with a roll of quarters in his fist.

The Cameo posted:Cole screaming “C’MON DANIEL! C’MON DANIEL! TAP OUT BATISTA! TAP OUT BATISTA!” and abandoning all impartiality as a play by play guy is probably his best moment since just going “WHAT?!” in response to the glass shattering in the Mankind/Rock title match. He’s a dude you can clearly tell the difference between him actually being caught up in a moment or being told to be caught up in it. Especially considering he was instructed to poo poo on Bryan for loving years prior to that.

I've always been curious how much longer the Cole/Lawler storyline would have gone on if King didn't have a heart attack live on air. Wasn't it already a year and a half by that point or something?
