Remember when he wrestled John Cena in the main event of a house show? And then he was fired a few months later? Mid-2000s WWE was really weird. I remember seeing him in a house show against Eugene in '07. Even then, he seemed like a stretched out Randy Orton without any of the charisma or ability.

Does that guy who dresses like Hulk Hogan still show up at wrestling shows? The one at King of the Ring '93? If so, last I saw Randy Hogan (BTW, he was a jobber in WCW) was around 2010 at a signing for Chris Jericho. Myself and Nikki Heyman (another superfan; I've known her for a good 15+ years now) talked to him a bit in line for that.

As a fan of Dr Who, Ghostbusters and Robot fighting shows (Robot Wars, Battlebots and so on), he was a Youtuber I would watch now and again. It honestly goes to show that these people we watch, we have no clue what they are really like in real life. Only seeing what they present on screen, nothing more. As a loose fan this whole thing feels so shocking, and makes me feel for not only the victim but his friend who did a lot of content with him. Yeah this is absolutely gutting to all three online communities because he was one of the most prominent YouTubers in those spheres. I should point out that we do need to be a little careful with what we say online regarding this, because the crime took place in Northern Ireland, and thus the UK, and as such it is subject to the UK's contempt of court laws, which are no joke. They do not want anything that can even be seen as swaying the jury, and that includes things being said online. Even in cases like this that has a mountain of evidence. Koda is right. Be careful about what you say until the trial is over. Also, having watched the Robot Wars/Battlebots reviews pretty regularly (I was subbed to the channel until the news came out) as well as Antweight Anarchy, this came across as a bit of a shock. I hope that Anthony (the owner of the channel Antweight Anarchy was on) and Catherine (the presenter for said series) are doing alright.

You know I’m bout to act a foooool!! When's the last Cincinnati won anything in any pro sport? 1990, when the Reds swept the Oakland A's in the World Series.

Two years ago they were hiring everything that moved. Now they're firing everything that isn't bolted down. All while making record profits. While I wouldn't say record profits, they earned $43.5 million last quarter in net profit. FOURTY-THREE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS. ...and John Laurinaitis/Nick Khan have the temerity to say the reason they were all released was "budget cuts"!? Get out of here with that! To me, this screams that WWE is still wanting to be bought out by some other company and they're trying to make themselves look more and more presentable by the day. Anyway, here's to hoping that most of the releases land with their feet on the ground. Most.

Oh, another one - Phenom - starring Judith Light (Who's the Boss?) as the single mother of a young tennis prodigy and William Devane as said prodigy's intrusive tennis coach. Despite being in all 22 episodes, Devane's name never appeared in the shows credits due to a pissing contest between him and Light over who should get top billing ("if I can't get top billing, then I don't want any billing at all!"). I remember it best though for starring a pre-Kes Jennifer Lien as the older brothers girlfriend. Also- the Phenom in question? A 10-year-old Ashley Johnson post-Growing Pains.

Hey guys, don't forget- if you're embedding Twitter posts, make sure it doesn't have unfiltered f-bombs or anything like that. Just had to clean up a handful of posts because of that. Also, can't wait to see what kiddbandit does next. Kidd, you've got a special something that will get you far in the business.

I mean, is anyone shocked that these two would be among the first announced talents for DPW? Nope. Just waiting for David Arquette, some mutated freak fish, or Evil Uno as Dick "The C***" Johnson (with his finisher, The Overdrive) to be announced next. Also, after party at the local Chuck E. Cheese?

Okay, so, just getting started using Steam after years of playing free to download roguelikes and suchlike. Started playing Darkest Dungeon and enjoying it. Anyways, what I'm pondering is, if I were to buy a game, and it doesn't really perform well on my laptop is can I get a refund on it? As long as you have put 2 hrs or less into gameplay. And there is a time limit as well, but I cannot remember how long that is. It used to be a month. Might be less now. It is less- the time limit to get a game refunded is two weeks from purchase date.

I wonder if WWE is aware at all of this guys story and how he has a movie on Disney Plus. Leave it to WWE to not capitalize at all. Graves has made a few references to Veer's "Million Dollar Arm" in the last few months, but I bet Vince doesn't really know.

What was/were the subjects matters that got Jeff so mad? The whole thing seemed like a worked shoot to me. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was to drum up interest for voting in the best new podcast award the show has been nominated for. Jarrett's podcast didn't win. They finished second.

Ringside News reported the Impact/AEW relationship is wrapping up after BFG. I forget their reputation as a news site. Just to let you know, Ringside News and Brad Sheppard are part of our banned news sources since their stories tend to be unreliable and very clickbait-y.

This one might be a bit strange, but what about Bob Eucker? Career batting average at the Mendoza Line, strictly okay as a fielder, but was able to turn it around and have a 50 year broadcasting career for the Brewers.

Hey guys-
I have decided to stop playing SuperCard for the time being. It was starting to become a bit of a money pit and I wasn't having as much fun anymore with the game. Best of luck to you guys, and hopefully you'll find someone that is dedicated to the game.

Fingers crossed "Shredded Humans" by Cannibal Corpse makes it into the top 50. 🤞 I've read through the list (mostly to find the Dusty Springfield entries), and unless I missed it Cannibal Corpse is not in the Top 500.

I'm sure song #378 is great but, boy, have you heard song #268? Now that is a tune. Uhhh... I've heard both before (P.S. I know you're kidding around, but you chose some doozys) and I have to give it to #378 (Mr. Brightside) over #268 (Shout!). Tell me there's at least one Dusty Springfield song, I don't have the time to look. There is- Son of a Preacher Man, #168.

I feel like Nick Aldis should have been in the Top 10. He'd been representing NWA pretty well, in my opinion albeit with less media attention. The evaluation period was between July 1, 2020 and June 30, 2021. NWA was inactive for most of that timeframe due to internal structuring problems and the pandemic. Aldis didn't exactly work other promotions during the hiatus, either. Correct. Aldis still made the list, but down at #30.
