I wonder how many others are still in the under 40 club? Any? Technically, if Reid Flair were still with us, he'd be the youngest of all (32 years old). However, of those that were full time wrestlers, I believe that Jimmy Yang is the only one left that's under 40 years old. As for others under 50: Daffney (45) Johnny "The Bull" Stamboli (Killer spelled backwards!; 43) Johnny Swinger (45) Horshu/Luther Reigns (49) Mikey Whipwreck (47) Tony Mamaluke (43)

I hope Conrad asks him about the Ding Dongs and Spartacus. What about The Candyman?

The wheels were really starting to fly off of the WCW wagon at this point. There's a reason why Tony Schiavone has outright said that the company by this point was a coffin on roller skates.

It’s bad enough he tied Flairs record for championships but how many times has this guy been married/engaged? AFAIK, the number's 3: his first wife Elizabeth, Nikki, and now Shay. Still hasn't made it to Flair's number (5 marriages, unknown number of engagements on top of that).

We still a ways away from it, but I wonder when he gets to Hey Dude. well he tell us whey David Lascher left the show and than later came back. Was it personnel reasons, did he leave for a short lived network show? It may have been the latter. Take a look at this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Family_for_Joe

Meanwhile, I have *zero* SS20 Women's cards. Nada. Zilch. Zippo. None card. Bupkus. Nil. I'm right with you. If I didn't get lucky with my Elemental Pro Trish Stratus, I'd be still stuck with a pair of 36 Pro's as my women.

I'll echo others here, never buy a console at launch. You basically end up paying for the privilege of being a beta tester. I agree with you as well. I usually wait out for a year or two before I get a system so that I can get an idea of the ecosystem for each console.

Would you consider Van Hammer for this? He had the look, may have had the gimmick, but in terms of wrestling ability... yeah, howaboutno.

I don't have much of a recollection of this show, though I'm glad Julie's still getting at it 30+ years later.
As for the next episode, I have a very strong attachment to it. Sharon, Lois, and Bram's Elephant Show was one of THE shows for me as a kid, my second favorite on the entire channel only to Double Dare.

Took care of it. Thanks for the heads-up.

I don't know if anyone listens to the Keepin it 100 Podcast with Konnan, but they had a guy on named Bill Bhatti on that stated he has heard that WWE went to LA to check on the possibility of holding the show there and selling tickets. He said LA told the WWE there is NO chance. Only a rumor, but it sounds like LA for Mania is probably a no go. Billi Bhatti is a banned source on here, notorious for unreliability. Sorry, but unless there is a legitimate source that doesn't use Billi, this thread is locked.

I’ll wait until a major game announcement before deciding. So Snitsky has my vote. Same here. I'm honestly for the ecosystems to mature before I pick either up, much like I did with the PS4.

I also remember him doing various PSA's for radio over the years, especially one for Arbor Day. Myself and my friends played that regularly back when I was on college radio (I miss you, Capture Suplex Radio!) and spinning it off into various jokes.
I'm gonna miss him, but I don't think he'll be forgotten any time soon.
Rest in peace, Mr. Scott.

wow, WWE even tweeted it out. I'm fairly sure UUDD is owned by WWE so they most likely get a cut of the profits. Still good on them for getting to do what they want. Some of them are legit great designs. Exactly right. UUDDShop is a spin-off of WWEShop (see the links on the bottom for confirmation on that), so WWE will get a cut of the apparel and other items.

In 2013 I bought AMD's FX 8320 processor because it had "8 cores" and was "future proof" because in a just few years every program would be using those multiple cores efficiently. Unfortunately the "8 cores" was more like 4 cores that each can do two things at the same time but not in any practical sense. Also if only one core was used it was terrible. That was part of the reason why Intel was able to coast from the second generation of the Core i-Series (~2011) until the beginning of 2017. Now, they're being forced to play a major game of keep-up while AMD is keeping the pedal to the metal. Man, the Wii is awesome. This is the future of video games! Spoiler: Motion control wasn't the future. In some form, it kinda was. Every main Nintendo console since the Wii has that option available to developers and it still does get used. Sony also has that option available with the PS4, but it's not nearly as used and feels kinda clunky (hello dart minigame in Persona 5 Royal).

Not me. I only go to self checkouts and get irritated if there's not an option. Let me scan my shit and go without any stupid small talk? Yes please. Admittedly when there's an issue with something not scanning or whatever that's annoying but it doesn't happen that often to me. The only annoying part is when people insist on scanning an entire cart of groceries at a self-checkout. That's not why they were invented. At certain places in the States (namely Walmart), some of the self-checks have conveyor belts so that you can do an entire cart without clogging up the express self-checks. It is nice, though I've personally never used those variants.

I reckon they can get pretty close to 16 with what they already have, believe it or not: Best Friends/Cassidy Cody/Natural Nightmares Dark Order I (Lee or Cabana, Uno, Grayson) Dark Order II (Angels, Silver, Reynolds) Death Triangle Elite Hardy/Private Party Inner Circle (Guevara/PnP) Jurassic Express Kingston/Butcher/Blade SCU Spears/FTR That’s 12 trios just with relationships that already exist (albeit this would be booking in a non-COVID world). Another four made with leftover tag teams and singles guys would be a piece of cake. Still, the charm of King of Trios are the surprise teams and the potential surprises They have good standing with AAA, they have potential relationships with others too and considering how much Khan loves wrestling history, I would be shocked if we saw an AEW King of Trios without a big blast from the past team, or even a Team Nitro or Thunder. Like, say, the Rock and Roll Express with an old school third member?

In the 7 year run of Garfield & Friends, the show had 3 opening songs: "Friends are there" "We're ready to party." & the rap one. The TV syndicated version which ran right after the show ended only showed the second theme implanted on all the episodes. (For the DVD releases, the first theme was put back, but the rap theme never was.) I'm kinda glad the last season's theme was never put back in. It just didn't fit Garfield at all to me.
