  1. WWE gives us glimmers of hope, but they are just not interested in tag team wrestling, Sad as when they do let it shine once in a while, it becomes big talk in wrestling world, Especially in NXT . [Shrug]
  2. I know, they really botched not giving it to him when he was hot, I also know he isnt the most skilled, but he does try and he has a ton of folks he's never really touched that would be ,if anything, fun title matches. all I am trying to say is. if they are going for spectacle, Braun could be that in all the right ways.
  3. Lee Vs. Braun in a rivalry for the big belt? I'd watch the hell outta that!
  4. I don't have faith in WWE booking, but MAN! if they booked Kieth Lee half way decent he could be a huge star for them , and rightfully so the guy is just a ball of talent.
  5. Yes, it's definitely you. WWE sucks hard right now, but if YOU can't find anything in any of the thousand other wrestling companies in the world to get excited over....then it's you. I think I wasn't very clear, as to say, there are pieces I am happy about in with wrestling, But it's spotty, I cannot be hyped by shows in because lot of the time I am fast forwarding for lack of interest, Also when it comes to the MAIN storylines and characters I am being told matter the most, I find it lacking, predictable and uninteresting.
  6. I should be more excited about wrestling in general, So many companies, so much talent, so many possibilities ...that every company can't help but stumble over. Maybe it's me, but it's really hard to get excited about what these companies are trying to get me hyped over.
  7. Never been a fan of Cole, and I don't think it's his fault. It's the combo of what he's being told to say and how close his voice is to Todd Pettengill. I just can't get over it as hard as I try, but I don't blame him the poor guy. My favorite will always be Gordon Solie, He allows for quiet moments, Like other sports. It really makes the exciting moments more so when he finally breaks the calm and starts to shout.
  8. HHH and Taker's entrances have been pretty good, but all time best entrance ever to me will be Sandman. Multiple times I have been given Goosebumps by that opening bass line. His Return to ECW entrance still gives me goosebumps, They really did a lot with so little
  9. LOL yeah one of the sponsors for the show was "Live KayFabe" , they were selling great shirts for super cheap. They also sold some Olde Wrestling shirts as well [i bought one of those too] . They also had a homemade Popsicle stand and a Argentinian food truck. So yeah a bit hipster-ish but a damn fine time. They did some spots I wouldnt be shocked to see big names using later, and the characters are beyond fun, if you get a chance and are in the area, See em!
  10. Went to another Olde Wrestling Show [Always a blast] here's some pics even got a cool shirt!
  11. [not sure if this goes here, but here it is...I'm so bored] lol
  12. Yea know, You're right Motown, I should have added Corino/Kelly to the list of gems in commentary But King/Ross?, I respectfully disagree, going back and listening, they were pretty awful together.
  13. I would believe it lol. But when it comes to wrestling, "New" isn't always better. I have never been a fan of how crowds are lit at shows, I find them distracting, And when the ring is surrounded by a soft darkness, it really gives matches a mood, a setting of importance like how boxing matches use to be. Now don't get me wrong, This isn't old man yelling about the way things use to be. They have stepped up with the camera work a lot. Compared to NJPW, WWE is amazing at capturing spots.I don't know sometimes it feels like wrestling just wants bigger, better, Louder! for spectacle sake forgetting that it may hinder a show from being better.
  14. Wrestling commentary to me is some of the worst in any sport and it's always been pretty awful. Sure you have your highlight figures [solie and Styles for me] but the majority of it comes off disingenuous, disinterested or worse, misinformed . For most cards I mute or lower volume, Listen to music or podcasts. I really wish they'd pause more, let the words have some room and not be a table of people fighting to get a word in , Or just talking to talk. I try to listen now and then see if it gets better, it rarely is worth it.
  15. Orange is the new Black final season marathon.
  16. I really want to say that this isn't a attack on his fans, at least not from me, People speaking out on Hogan are not asking Hogan to be perfect but rather that WWE stand by it's mission statement and presented values. [but at this point they fail so hard I wonder why we even try] . Hogan is still redeemable, but that redemption asks he do something he finds hard to accomplish, Be humble and tell the truth. It's so simple.
  17. every apology came with a ton of excuses tacked on, This was one of the moments you need not a excuse, just apologize and say you'll try harder in the future.That's it. He ruined it by adding on all these reasons for his words."it was okay to say that word back then, and I did it to all my friends" , "I was in a bad place" [That's no excuse to be racist anyways]. "This is about privacy not racism" [Which it was really about both] All he had to do was say sorry. Seemed to work for Dan Harmon and a few others who did the simple most human thing you can do when you're wrong.Just.Say.Sorry. the Locker room response to Hogan was luke warm at best, some of the most loved people in WWE were rather annoyed Hogan was brought back into the fold and found his apology less then credible. and can you blame them, I mean this not to be over cruel to Hulk, but every single word out of his mouth seems to be lies, why would you believe him? At least if he left it at a simple apology , You could go "Well he is trying I suppose" . If you like Hogan, I am happy you enjoy his work. But let's be frank, He isn't going to wrestle anymore, he isn't gonna put anyone over. His Career made a lot of money for the business, but to me I see him as someone who did just as bad as he did good for the business, I'm not alone in that thinking. He has a less then stellar rep..Use another Legend.
