Richard Dawson has a bruiser security guard (LaFours from Mallrats) in The Running Man who just peaces out when Ben Richards finally gets to them.
Similarly, Kevin Nash is given the opportunity to walk away by John Wick in the first film and wisely accepts.

From thehistoryofwwe.com: WWF @ Huntington, WV – Civic Center – January 14, 1991 Sam Houston defeated Dustin Rhodes Kerry Von Erich pinned Virgil Jake Roberts defeated Rick Martel via disqualification WWF Tag Team Champions Bret Hart & Jim Neidhart defeated Earthquake & Dino Bravo when Bret pinned Bravo Koko B. Ware pinned Buddy Rose Tugboat defeated the Barbarian Tito Santana defeated WWF IC Champion Mr. Perfect via disqualification Sam Houston was employed in WWE in 1991? Interesting. The Hart Foundation Vs Earthquake and Dino Bravo match is almost an all Canadian matchup except Jim was from Reno, Nevada. I believe he did move to Canada after getting married (Natalya is listed as being born in Calgary) so 3 natives and 1 resident. |

Ahmed looks like a greasy overstuffed sausage. A kinky, greasy overstuffed sausage. They never specified what sort of “Domination” they were aiming for, apparently. |

I will always dream about the alternate world where they call an audible in 2011 and ADR/Santino runs away with this poll

Do we know if Mercedes is cleared and ready to wrestle yet? If she's not cleared yet but is very close to it, you may as well wait a few extra weeks. Unless she absolutely shattered her ankle, she should’ve been good to go awhile ago. It shouldn’t take over 6 months for a broken ankle to heal. |

The best thing about this thread is the random Wendi Richter speculation. It’s like if during the various Punk huffs, SRS would just be like “There’s a chance Barry Windham shows up on Dynamite”

We’re big, menacing and bringing doom to the WWE…and we’ve chosen the name of a Christian rock group to reflect this.

I know Luger has signed a legends contract and had action figures and documentaries but has Luger appeared in front of wwe crowds since 95 at live events, hall of fame etc? Not sure if that counts... Given his physical condition the last decade or so, appearing at a big live event might be too much for Luger. He does do conventions but that’s much different than getting around an arena. |

King Curtis Iaukea III appeared before the chaos from the realm beyond where no Hulkamaniacs dwell and commanded an end to it lest they be judged by Sullivan The Son Of The Darkness, The Creator "SULLIVAN, MY SON!" "Actually, I'm AEW's Vice President of Post Production Kevin Sullivan. Different guy. I get that a lot." "I AM ADOPTING YOU ANYWAY!" "... okay." “SULLIVAN, MY SON!! I HAVE BROUGHT YOU ANOTHER WARRIOR IN THE QUEST FOR THE RARE WHITE BENGAL TIGER!!” “Who have you brought me, fatha??” “HE WAS BORN IN THE RING OF FIRE!! HE HAS BATTLED THE SHARKS AND GIANT SQUID OFF THE SHORES OF WAKIKI!! HE HAS DANCED THE HULU ON THE VERY EDGE OF REALITY! I GIVE TO YOUUUUUU…..THE BIG HAWAIIAN-LOOKING DUDE!!!” |

It's crazy that he has been in WWE over 15 years for this second run, he's HOF-bound IMO. Truth’s HOF acceptance speech should be broadcast on the major networks live. That’s going to be one for the ages. |

If we count women, Charlotte and Rhea. Both times at 'Mania and via the Royal Rumble. Sasha also defended the Smackdown Women's Title against Bayley on the November 6, 2020 episode of Smackdown. I remember the date, because something noteworthy happened that day we can't talk about. Asuka and Bayley have grappled for main roster and developmental belts as well. |

Now that the “evil authority figure” seems to have finally been rendered extinct, “SRS WRESTLER” is the next character-type I’d like to see vanish (not just in AEW. Everywhere)
Bret Hart is the patron saint of taking himself too seriously and he still found time to hang out with Santa and William Shatner. It’s ok to not want to be TL Hopper but the “dis business” stuff is just so boring to me in the year 2024.

It is funny, but JD should have absolutely destroyed R-Truth weeks ago. Like announcers in serious voices beatdown. He is making them look like buffoons. In kayfabe, the one time that R-Truth was pushed too far and turned heel in WWE, he became an existential threat to the entire company. The whole roster walked out in abject fear of Triple H’s inability to protect them from an unhinged Truth. It’s a much smarter move to tolerate Truth’s wackiness than have McDonagh covered in cigarette burns the week after a JD beatdown. |

Mercedes appearing on Raw/Dynamite “soon” fills the newz void left by Carlito’s appearance in the Rumble a couple years ago.

Has Kevin James ever done a character that isn't fat and oafish? Which reminds me: Melissa McCarthy. I don't hate her. Heck I like her a teensy bit. But she can't get beyond the same Kevin James type tropes. I’d advise you to watch the outstanding “Can You Ever Forgive Me?”. |

Well, he’s hasn’t gone flat earth-yet. From November through December I was sick as a dog, he’s been suggesting all kinds of “natural” remedies. And now he’s started going on about not believing Pangea, the super continent, ever existed. I’m putting my money on the lizard people next. I'm betting on the underdog and voting for The Philadelphia Experiment. It's due for a mainstream comeback any day now. I was telling my sister-in-law about the Philadelphia Experiment story when we were driving past the Navy Yard on our way into the city last month. She looked at me like I was genuinely crazy. |

I thought this was going to be about Henry O'Godwinn I want to say the Godwinns’ heel turn in 1997 was such a missed opportunity. They really had a creepy Deliverance vibe going and they could have leaned into it even more as the company got raunchier. Shame HOG got hurt right when they were finding their legs. |

I'd be surprised if it wasn't Jey Uso. Pretty easy feud to write. GUNTHER runs Jey down, says everything he’s ever gotten was through his family and he’s nothing on his own, Jey proves him wrong and gets his first singles title. Everybody dances!! |
