yes. I had such a great day watching those lads. When did they wrestle? And when did they wrestle a tiger?

Let me guess, it'll be like Jack Black's movie "Nacho Libre"... by day the tiger is Catoru Sayama, mild-mannered accountant, by night he is Mask Tiger Mask, professional wrestler.

yes. This was the weirdest episode of ECW Hardcore TV I ever saw up to that point. Heyman saw dollar signs in Huey and wanted to push the hell out of him.

A hasbro commercial from 1991 showed a clip of a Dusty Rhodes/Ted Dibiase match that didn’t see the light of day until WWE put out the unreleased dvd set a couple of years ago

I've always thought it was funny how on B shows like Velocity, Heat, Metal, Superstars and probably even Main Event to this very day, they show the top guys on the intro that you know damn well you aren't going to see on that show. I always assumed it was more appealing than the lower card / job guys that you're actually going to see on there. Just keep it real. If I'm tuning into Metal on a Saturday morning in 2001 don't show me Rock and Austin on the intro when you know damn well I'm getting Kaientai and Essa Rios!

It always feels super ghetto when a wrestling show tries to sell itself on stars who are no longer there. Ring of Honor still had Joe, AJ and McGuiness in its opening video well into 2015. Joe and AJ wrestled in ROH in 2015 and Nigel was the On Screen Matchmaker?

To be fair, those top guys usually showed up during the RAW and SD recaps.

That part where Booker T's eyes glowed still pisses me off. Booker T's eyes never glowed. Neither did Kevin Nash’s

Not quite the same but I hate the Wrestlemania sign hanging up outside of Mania. I know it's just there for the lame pointing thing but still. Like the opening shot of the Royal Rumble is the Wrestlemania sign. It's not Wrestlemania! It's the Royal Rumble!

It always feels super ghetto when a wrestling show tries to sell itself on stars who are no longer there. Ring of Honor still had Joe, AJ and McGuiness in its opening video well into 2015. AJ wrestled ALL of 2015 in ROH. His last appearance was at Final Battle vs Jay Lethal. AJ might have even worked the taping after that before debuting in the RR a few weeks later. Joe made a quick stop in ROH between his TNA and NXT runs early in 2015. I was there when he returned at Anniversary and he worked at least until Super Card in April. And Nigel was an on screen authority figure until the end of 2016 and maybe into 2017. I'd say ROH was justified in having all 3 in their intro in 2015.

Yeah- I called all of AJ's ROH 2016 appearances including the day before the Rumble.
