I will say there was no heel in wrestling that I hated as a kid as much as I hated Wayne Arnold on the Wonder Years, mostly because he reminded me so much of my friend's older brother who was exactly like him.

I built my whole collection from High School by signing up to BMG, depending on the deal you would get 5 free then just buy 1 and get 2 more free, then you could cancel and do it all over again. Plus if you signed up friends you'd get like 2 or 3 more free. I was a member of Columbia House, too. They had different selections of certain artists, which is the only reason I ever joined Columbia House since they made you buy like 4 overpriced CDs over the next 2 years but you would get the 12 free immediately, so it kinda worked out.
The thing I hate is that I no longer have any of the old catalogues. I would love to find some from 1997-2003 or so with was when I was so heavily into it.

I watched it when I was about 4 and remember being really confused because even though I hadn't seen the movie. I somehow knew it didn't go with the movie, especially since there was a gorilla.

I remember watching this as a kid and being bored out of my mind, and I was a huge Stooges nut. There was just way too much time spent on the other characters for my taste.

But I thought it was established long ago that Beth has no passion.

The King was probably watching one of his kids play with their gold plated WWE figures and decided on a whim to write a check big enough to book exactly what the kid was fantasy booking. Good thing I wasn't Saudi Prince as a kid or we would've had to endure a year long WWF championship reign of Giant Gonzales.

This was also when Stephanie said she and Big Show grew up together, which kinda made it seem like the original WCW "Son of Andre" angle was still canon in WWE.

I remember my friends and I discussing the fact that R Kelly was into underage girls back when I was in high school. I was last in high school 18 years ago! And we heard this back then, maybe one of these days someone will be able to make it legally stick.

I'm wracking my brain trying to figure out why this was a thing. I mean I guess they're trying to cash in on the crossover success the WWF was having with pop culture but this is bizarre. Verne trying to keep up with the times and dip his toe in Vince-esque sports entertainment always turned out so bizarre. Thinking that an Entertainment Tonight type interview segment was the answer to Rock n wrestling seems about par for the course. It made him seem more out of touch than if he just kept on doing what he had always done. The below clip is a good example of someone old fashioned trying to keep up with the times. Kinda how I picture of Verne trying to keep up with Vince in the late 80's.

Showbiz, it was both my favorite place in the world as an 80s kid and yet it also terrified me. I used to have the character's dolls and would "play" Showbiz at home, but being in the theater with robots was scary to a 5 Year old. I did have my birthday at Showbiz when I was 8, and they let us in before they opened the doors, and I got to have the whole arcade to myself, it was awesome.

I remember as a kid seeing them on a promo commercial a few weeks before it premiered and thinking they said their names were Penis and Butt-head, and knowing my parents would never let me watch anything called that.

They have bought most of the most poplar stations in my area, including the classic rock station that has been the same name for nearly 40 years, then as soon as Iheart bought it, they changed the name, which has annoyed most of their listeners and went to robo-djs which annoyed everyone.

I’d always take a look for “Ain’t I Great?” when I went to the record store. Sure, I knew it was sold out everywhere but you never know when you could find it. I’m not a country music fan. You never know when they might actually do something. -I legit asked my mom to ask the guy in the Target music department if they had the Ain't I Great CD. He looked and couldn't find it for us. -I used to think that any time a wrestler appeared in a movie, that other wrestlers would also appear in the movie. I guess because Thunder in Paradise always had a bunch of other wrestlers appear with Hogan. I read the cast list of They Live with Roddy Piper and saw the name of actor Raymond St.Jacques and thought that that meant Raymond & Jacques Rougeau were in the movie somewhere. -I thought that if you didn't have a nickname you were a jobber, once you won a match, you were given a nickname. The first show I ever watched was the last Main Event on Fox and Shawn Michaels (who wasn't called Heartbreak Kid, yet) beat Bulldog for the IC title. I thought going into the match he must be jobber that everyone knew was going to lose, but then won in a big upset. I thought he was a jobber because he didn't have a nickname, and would now get to have one now since he finally won a match. I mean, I didn't even understand that he had won a championship, I thought every match on the show was part of a big tournament and I'd see the winners face each other the next week like American Gladiators.

This sounds goofy, but I've been wanting a Double J Hasbro action figure since 1994. Maybe with him back in the fold, I can finally get that with that retro Hasbro style figures that exist now.
