I could see HHH watching the first 30 or so minutes of Death of Stalin and thinking he relates to that cool guy Beria and things will totally work out in the end. He turns it off while humming the Soviet March from Red Alert 3. Steph as Yetzov is hilariously spot on. Tato posted:Someone went back in time and changed some poo poo. Now Stephanie McMahon never existed and......Patrice O'Neil is alive and co-CEO?!? Great now Steph will get another Time Machine and assassinate Einstein to correct the present.

Gavok posted:The timeline went like this: That was so weird to watch in real time. I remember goons posting the night of the Benoit memorial thread. Started off with both shock and sadness right until the Regal interview. That is the exact moment many of us went “ummm…. Something seems off.” The Vince moment on ECW I remember was the true beginning of the wtf. Man this thread was crazy. Good news is nobody here seriously thought Kevin Sullivan did it. As a big Angle, Benoit and Eddgie G fan, these were a few rough years.

Just do the search of Cuck Cody and Cucking Cody from the final page of the tread. Be sure to search for Cuck C*dy and Cucking C*dy as well. It counts if Cuck Cody or Cuck C*dy was said multiple times in the same post. I think you will find Cuck or Cucking with a combination of Cody or C*dy was said multiple times and thus proving the “Cuck Cody said multiple times” theory correct. It’s definitely far more than the once and you should apologise to your fellow posting friends. Remember cntrl f Cuck and Cucking. Thank you. Cuck. Davros1 posted:There's a 99% chance Cody doesn't get cut, but if he did, would he try to go back to AEW, or would he call it career? He would do like he did last time: wander the indies building a rep and/or build a promotion until Vince did his Sith mind trick again. It won’t happen as Vince is a spite elemental but if it did. I just hope some writer pretends to type notes from Cody on a shut down laptop once more for even more humiliation points. I love Cody but I love LOLs even more.

Lid posted:They lived in an era where the only easily obtainable alternative was TNA. No chance they were seeing Bryan Danielson era ROH. To them Ziggler style WWE was the only wrestling they knew until four years ago. I want to argue but ... you are right. Like with me I had a dad who took me to wrestling and there were multiple companies when I was a kid. When I was a teen a friend brought over 90s Japan, ROH and weird indie "tapes" and we watched that. Same friend would email me links to follow ROH, DDP, NJPW, SHIMMER, Chikara, PWG and other stuff all through the "dark period" but make no mistake... I hated WWE but that and TNA were the easiest thing to watch. Local indies were fun but the only big time shows I could see live were wwe. Was the easiest way to get a group of friends to go see wrassling. I know one of my old friends turned acquaintance really had no idea of anything other than wwe. I tried to get him to watch other stuff and he'd just "nah." Got him to check out AEW and hoping he checks out other stuff but really... most of us goons are kind of the exception to the rule. A good chunk of people during the WWE REIGN OF TERROR had no idea of any kind of wrestling exists outside of wwe. Hell I've heard people of various ages use WWE in real life like we would say Q-Tip or Kraft Dinner. TNA? Hardly even a footnote to the general public no matter what they tried. Crazy to think how WWE almost successfully rewrote reality to the masses (outside Japan at least) where they were the only wrestling company: past, present future. The certainly did everything vile they could to make it that way. Kinda feel like the corp will still be around and may even make money but it's the passing of that phase. Again I could see them being successful or just as likely get parted off and sold off by Endeavor but it just feels like the absolute domination phase of it's existence is over. Maybe I am being naive. Either way I am cool as the biggest gripe I had with wwe was their obsession with not just domination but destruction of everything not wwe. WWE turning into just another territory and running Roman Reigns as champion until the heat death of the universe? Whatever. That got me. I was watching Heels the other day and I still wonder at that alternative universe where Cody went to somewhere in the South and created his own wrassling Fed. With some of these releases that might not be a bad idea. Please don't share this with WWE or they might fight the releases. C'mooooon WWE.... let another turf rise from your ashes.

Vandar posted:Toward the end, Dark and Elevation were trending toward longer and more involved matches. Dark and Elevation had longer matches sprinkled for a while. I am fairly sure they put a Dragon classic match versus either either a murder grandpa or a really angry stone golem. Can't totally remember. You'd have the obvious short matches to train the newbies but that was often hidden in multi person matches. Queen Emi (she dropped the Freddie Mercury gimmick ages ago) and Nyla Rose teamed up with Diamante in a ton of fun matches that probably only I loved. Diamante needed that honestly. But yeah ... both short and long. I want to say that started in the Pandemic (awesome commentary too) but I am likely wrong. Either way it seemed like a great place to get training in for new guys, work off ring rust for former wwe talent, reps for older talent returning for injury and tryouts for hopefuls. I thought it was a great show. Just know I kept hearing people mock it and say "nothing but jobber matches with some lady that thinks she freddie mercury" and I kept wondering what they were watching. Fun show that rubbed some people the wrong way. edit: Dancing Peasant posted:ROH is basically the new Dark/Elevation so at least its spirit is still chugging along just fine projecthalaxy posted:Tozawa is 1-1-1 on Raw this year, splitting 3 minute matches with the Miz and then not winning an Intercontinental Contenders Battle Royal. 7-4 on Main Event though.

I really want Swerve in the title scene and OKADA might throw that off. Him in wwe would be such a waste and would make me even sadder than retired Nakamura. Times like this I wish Cody had made his own Southern Wrassling Fed so there was more competition and places to mix it up. I get the urge to explore other places but is jobbing to Roman, racist feuds and surfing in Florida really that fulfilling? Looking forward to Jimmy Okada having troubles going poop backstage skit while he learns to properly work. I do seriously want to know if the surfing in Florida is that good.

I always will appreciate the gift that Goon Rarity gave us with the Beepie nickname. Haven’t seen her post in WH that often nowadays but she was the best scoopsgal and posting pal. Drakkel posted:I don't think there's any sort of conspiracy theory beyond it other than "HHH loves agonizingly long title reigns" and "Roman's the only person in the company they've ever bothered to build to this level so they have to drag this poo poo out as long as humanly possible" Kinda with you there. He’s got so much inertia after a decade plus as the sole focus that it would take effort to make someone else at his level and the only one that believes in putting forth effort in wwe is Vince. Vince was a driven lunatic awnserable to no one so every dude that might give a drat was either driven out, retired, died or broken like a horse. Now that Vince is gone the only guys left are yes men and a failson with a bad ticker who barely got the throne so it’s Roman until the heat death of the universe. Anyone else might make the money guys nervous and Hunter can be easily replaced. It COULD be done but why ice skate uphill for cold doughnuts? Speaking of failsons: are Rubber Chickens still banned from wwe live events?

Hey my posting pals what’s up? <reads thread> Jesus Christ. STONE COLD 64 posted:Thinking more and more about ashley massaro's incident and cant help but think that is absolutely blood on vince's hands It’s not like everyone was unaware. We already saw in this thread Ryan Nemeth spoke out and was blacklisted for it. Multiple women that were probably victims wanted it kept quiet because wwe was the big time and the only way they felt they could make money doing the business they loved. Tons of victims feel the need to keep quiet due to the power of the people that abused them. Sooner wwe is gone other places will spring up. Might they still be run by scumbags? Sure. They can also get shut down when people stop going until hopefully companies say “maybe we can’t just keep eating babies and puppies.” gently caress wwe. Burn it down. Salt the earth. Build something new somewhere else. Believe victims always. Sorry to be so serious but those details are repellent and make my soul hurt. It’s also extraordinarily obvious this has been going on longer than I’ve been alive. Not even sure I want to watch a dark side of the ring about this although some public doc should be made so it’s not memory holed like 99% of Vince’s crimes. So gross.

Sydney Bottocks posted:Exactly, "no ethical consumption" isn't meant to justify supporting terrible people in when it comes to the arts or sports or entertainment, because those aren't things a person needs to survive. You need food and clothing and shelter to survive, so sometimes you have to do business with companies or individuals that are less than ethical, depending on your circumstances and your environment. You don't need to watch WWE to survive. To use a non wrasslin example with a semi obscure music band: Crystal Castles. I’ve liked their stuff from early to late period but then one day you find out truly awful stuff about the male half of the band. Really gross. All you have to do is NOT give any money to anything by Crystal Castles or Alex Kath. Alice Glass is cool and a survivor so give her all the monies. Don’t even stream off their official YouTube (if it’s still there as gently caress that guy and I won’t even check) which may hurt but let it go. You can find non monstrous avenues for jams. Same applies for anyone who liked lostprophets. Let that poo poo go including the name. It’s tainted to the core. I always hated that “no ethical consumption under capitalism” bs. Same with the “it is what is is” American saying. Just feels like the worst conservative people twist it so nothing ever changes or gets done so they can stay comfortable.

Hedgehog Pie posted:I should clarify that I don't think Jericho's ever been bad as a wrestler, it's just that he was always being compared to the likes of Eddie and Benoit (and Lance Storm) so he always seemed slightly worse off. A bit like Punk with Danielson and all that. I've not really seen enough of peak Punk to compare them otherwise, just what appeared to be their similar circumstances, at least in my mind. To further expand (because I was a young Jerichoholic AND a big ROH fan back in the day) Jericho was light years better. Lionheart to WCW he was awesome. His stuff versus Eddie G and Alex Wright are worth seeking out. Problem was you had a ton of Luchadores, Benoit, Malenko, Saturn, Lance Storm, Kanyon and so on. Ring wise WCW had a metric fucktonne of talent; especially in the mid and undercard. Jericho blew most of those guys away with mic and character work. Conspiracy era Jericho was hilarious. In WWF/E Jericho had to put on some weight and wore lifts so he became a bit sloppy. Later on the Ocho adapted to his size and, eventually, age and we got a guy still in contention for GOAT. Punk? Early Punk was okay in the ring but, as people have said, character work, mic skills and an ability to build a great match were his strengths. That and he seemed so effortlessly cool. Danielson was a guy who, until late 00s was a bit bland everywhere but the ring. Once he stepped in the ring, even guys who could care less started gawking and wondered who the gently caress this guy was and why he wasn’t everywhere. Danielson got better outside the ring around 2007 to 2009 but really he wasn’t what a teenager thought of as cool. Claudio? He was a dick and skilled but the closest he came to cool was teamed with Chris Hero. Teddy Hart? Low-Ki? Christopher Daniels? I thought Homocide was a kind of cool in a murder you way but I don’t think many kids wanted to be Homocide. You wanted to be like CM Punk. Even as a heel you loved him because he was a rebel who would always fight the system and go his own way and surely never sell out.<LOL> Tony Khan gave him the keys to the throne and would have gone out on top of the world… instead he just had to punch the Bucks, sic his dog Ace on Kenny (Kenny Omega had bite marks on his arm) and later on try and kill Tony Khan. I still hope we find out the deets to that last fight. LOL on Punk self own. But you know who had a cool factor AND was a god in the ring? Samoa Joe. I know most here, even fans, dont think of Joe that way but like 2001 to like 2005 Samoa Joe was one the best in the ring and on the mic felt like the god of vengeance. Like the entire world couldn’t wait to see what he did next. Nowadays he’s still good and I’m happy as hell he’s champ but man… back in the day. A god I tell ya. Still mad at TNA and WWE for wasting Joe. Still hoping Danielson gets the big AEW (and/or NJPW) gold belt before he quits as Danielson is still amazing in every way. Joe and Danielson deserve every accolade. Punk deserves a booth next to Virgil. DogsInSpace! fucked around with this message at 23:58 on Jan 30, 2024 |

stab posted:He still has the funniest return injury of all time, sorry CM Punk you can't even be the best in the world at that either Two people claiming to be the best in the world? Only way to solve this dilemma: hardcore death match Shane O Mac vs CM Punk with special ref Ahmed Johnson and special guest enforcer Diesel. Who will survive?
