    Donnie watches WWWWF 1979

    It takes a leg break angle for Strongbow to actually sell something decently lmao. I want to watch the match again sometime soon because I thought it was borderline great thanks basically entirely to Valentine. Strongfake :gaga (aw)

    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    I really wish WWE put all the OVW tv on the network so we could see what the Ricos, Bashams, Dinsmores, etc were doing before they were called up and given a gimmick that would never properly get over (or in the case of Dinsmore, just be one of the worst things ever). Doug Basham especially...

    Donnie watches WWWWF 1979

    I had to google Von Wagner, thought it was another one of those Chikara or Scottish wrestlers you invent to try to make me look foolish. POLE ANT. Yeah I'd assume 79 DiBiase's more or a less seasoned version of his babyface Mid-South self. That Flair match/angle is total magic as a tv segment...

    Donnie watches WWWWF 1979

    Pole AND Bill Berger? Colombian Jaguar too!! WWE try desperately to create interesting ring names for NXT guys when they already peaked in the 70s. Babyface DiBiase in New York is kind of surreal sounding, would very much like to go through it one day.

    If you could write a letter to yourself at 17

    I just assumed they didn't have it here so I wrote it like that haha. They've even got CAL emojis on here. :cal Sadly missing walphtf though.

    If you could write a letter to yourself at 17

    I saw the Punk/Kingston pic in your sig and thought in was in the post, and that the your post would be just telling yourself to be hyped for that hahah. But nah for how long I've known you now reading this was something else. I'd hope if anything too you could tell your 17 year old self you've...

    Donnie watches WWWWF 1979

    ......was someone's ring name actually just "Pole"? Please say yes I want this to be true more than anything. Edit - just noticed you wrote about a Valentine vs. Strongbow already. Pretty sure I've not seen that one though, the match I meant is I think on 7/21.

    Donnie watches WWWWF 1979

    I had no idea Tito Santana was there in 1979 squashing dudes, sounds rad. DiBiase vs. Rodd sounds pretty hot too. If it aired on their weekly tv, you should almost be up to Valentine vs. Strongbow aka maybe the best carry job I've seen. Strongbow's hulk up in it is lmaooo.

    What are your most 'surprisingly good' matches?

    FUCK how did I forget this one, we just talked about it last week.

    What are your most 'surprisingly good' matches?

    The Rousey debut tag definitely, was super fun seeing everyone buzzing from it. I'd actually count Cena vs. Lesnar at Extreme Rules. Lesnar had a mediocre NJPW run and his last American match was the Goldberg fiasco. Who saw the megaclassic coming?

    Nobuhiko Takada

    (A) My point was Takada vs. Mutoh and Hashimoto drew record crowds and why would those matches even be booked on such a grand stage if Takada wasn't a big time performer? Hashimoto vs. Mutoh didn't even draw that much in 95, and Takada even sold out the arena facing Gary Albright. I have no clue...

    Nobuhiko Takada

    I guess if you consider the big stage to be the biggest stage, but it still drew some really big crowds every now and then; like 40,000+ people. WWE don't even draw that outside of some Rumbles and WrestleManias. There's a reason pairing him up with Mutoh/Hashimoto drew that much interest to...

    The Best Fan Thread In The World: CM Punk

    2011 CM Punk in WWE felt like the last time I was "a part of something" in wrestling by keeping up with it. That is, until 2021 CM Punk in AEW.

    El Hijo Del Santo

    Legit contender for #1 worker of all time. If I listed every match of his worth watching I'd break my hands typing, and I bet I could watch ten matches at random and get at least eight more to add. Probably has more MOTYCs spread throughout the past 40 years than anybody with the exception of...

    Nobuhiko Takada

    Takada was, like, a really big star and was often in the main event of UWF by the late 80s, and almost always in the main event UWFi (the promotion he co-founded) throughout the 90s, and had crossover big matches with even boxers and American stars like Vader. His match with Mutoh in 1995 drew...

    The Big Show

    Show is one of those, where, if I see a match he's in and I hear it's 6 minutes or less, I can basically get excited no matter who the opponent is. I think sometimes he can come off as "just a super heavyweight" instead of a giant, but still, right before the bell even rings the story is there...

    Garbage thread

    Here's every Virus singles match I could find from the 2000s. For some reason can't come across the lightning match with Valiente in 2009. Virus vs. Ricky Marvin (CMLL 14/12/00) Maybe the most unfortunately named wrestler to praise for the past couple years but VIRUS! A lot of the best rudo...

    Bret "The Hitman" Hart

    Bret's gotten a bit of a rep for being kind of boastful and overly prideful, and I won't say it's unearned or anything, but I was listening yesterday about how he just picked lower ranked guys he wanted to work with a lot of the time and think that's really cool. Which other top WWF guy would...
