Are there any other wrestling Youtube/Video content providers other than Botchamania or BDWJ1989 worth checking out?

What is the most powerful move in wrestling logic? Does anything beat the Canadian destroyer off the ladder through a table from last weekend?

seeing as it did not even end the match and the guy who took it was on his feet ≈3 minutes later i would say lots of stuff

Half the roster is entitled to no-sell it! It's less effective than the most widely-used and consistently successful finisher, the rollup.

So, nowadays WWE tends to tape a lot of shows at once, to the point of exhaustion for some crowds. Was it always like that, especially in the Attitude era? Sunday Night Heat was live before any PPVs but what about Sundays when there wasn't a PPV? Same for Thunder, was it big enough for its own show or did they tape it before/after something?

the wrestling wikipedia that still lists all the wrestler's finishes posted:

From early 1994 to September 1999, Raw was shown live on one Monday and then the next day (Tuesday) next Monday's Raw was taped. This meant that Raw was live one week and taped the next.

and i am p. sure they taped some of those recap shows with a few squashes for poors that could not afford the premium channels at the same deal (i was one of the poors)

I think it alternated between taped shows and live shows for a while, didn't it? Before the reboot, I mean.

i remember kevin nash giving some apologia for his disastrous run as booker wherein he breaks down how complicated it was to keep things in any kind of coherent linear order. here it is in fact:

I think Hogan doing that and the Wrestlemania 9 poo poo before that is largely responsible for the hella paranoid top faces we saw in Bret, Shawn, Austin ect. You don't see him doing that to people and take any other lesson besides "people will gently caress you if you give them a shred of a chance"

everybody thinks nash is a gently caress and do not get me wrong he is but also it turns out that if you do not realpolitik the gently caress out of your situation then you get 50/50 booked into a flavourless mush
