This isn't a Scott Hall moment, but it's a bit of a Luger. I think it starts opening the doors wider. There will be some interesting swaps between both companies over the next 2-3 years imo. “Bit of a Luger” is the best turn of phrase I’ve seen here in quite sometime, good work!

To me, Edge was always the proverbial “B+ Player” so I find all the “HUGE signing of a HUGE name” a bit overblown myself but if Edge is happy and the fans are happy, hurrahs all around.

Going way back, the lengthy sitdown interview Mick Foley did with JR in 1997. Seeing ECW footage on Raw seemed downright normal compared to the Japanese death match footage and Foley’s own backyard wrestling footage they threw in there.

The Creator looked way better at $80 million than a lot of the $300 million movies released during the summer.

Why not just have him wrestle as Adam Cope, yell out “ADAM COPE HON-NAY!” and defend the tag belts with MJF?

I thought it was a great match. Two big bruisers just beating the hell out of each other. Good on both guys. It’s sort of become a meme these days with the “meaty men slapping meat” nonsense but there’s always a solid place in wrestling for two big guys just kicking the shit out of each other. It’s wrestling at its most basic but when done well, it can be wrestling at its best.

When you give one of your first auditions for the stage and you impress Laurence Olivier, you got the goods. Gambon Forever.

Sting! Tired of the label of “wrestling’s most trusting fool”, the Stinger embraces the dark side!

Wait til people find out the attendance was only 1300 people and all the mirrors in England (Tony swiped his dad’s credit card to buy them)
And you think that’s nuts?? Wrestlemania 32 never actually happened!! It was an early AI experiment NBC/Universal was running to see if a computer could run a reasonable live event simulation.
We’re through the looking glass here, people….

When I think of pro wrestling, one name comes to mind. Dan Ventrelle He’s the Lou Thesz of the executive offices.

Mick Foley called Mikey Whipwreck “a great white-meat babyface” in a promo with Raven in late 1995 ECW.

It’s amazing to me that we’ve reached a point where people are suggesting Martin Scorsese should shut the f*** up during a discussion about films.

I’m waiting for Kurt Angle to show up and redo his great promo from when Triple H returned.
“Oh, his back’s broke? Big whoop! I break my back all the time. I broke my back this morning, I’m here, I’m jumping around”

PPV a month after the previous one, against SmackDown, during the week of Christmas just sounds like they're begging to set a new record low buyrate. Don’t forget the Cotton Bowl, which is also on at 8 PM on December 29th!

Matthew Holness, Matt Berry, and Richard Ayoade. Along those lines, Berry and Rich Fulcher were aces on Snuffbox and they actually had a proper “comedy duo” vibe with the arrogant British snob and dimbulb American putz.

The match with Brock was a marquee match that ended up being awful. But it was still a big match.
Being on the preshow is being misused.
