    Should Bad News Allen/Brown have been given the WWF title?

    Many of you know that he left the WWF in 1990 because Vince went back on his promise to give him the belt (and I hear because Piper got more for the Mania 6 match). Because of his character compared to Hulk's you can see how it would be quite a juicy feud. As a short term Champion I don't see...

    Best and Worse PPV names?

    Is it just me or is "Great Balls of Fire" one of the worse names for a wrestling PPV? It has nothing to do with wrestling and sounds more like a cheesy sitcom or film. So it got me thinking about the best and worse names for shows. Am thinking mostly about the B/C-shows. And can include...

    Purposed Heyman-Heenan storyline from 92?

    Here's a video from a Paul Heyman live interview. He discusses a few different topics, but of most interest to me is where he says that when he left WCW in 92 that there were plans for him to join WWF and to work a storyline with The Brain:mark: Sounds gold to me the way Heyman says it. Thoughts?

    Did WCW drop the ball with Jake Roberts in 92?

    We know that Roberts didn't like then head of WCW Bill Watts and that Watts hated Jake back. If you believe Jake's side of events Watts ripped up his contract and never gave him a chance to get over. But Watts claims that Jake could not be relied on to show up on time and was hitting the drink...

    Who did Triple H ever make look good?

    These interesting thoughts from Kevin Kelly prompt these. I think he makes a very good point. Of course HHH went on to be a very good worker. But he got a lot of help on the way up. Yet if you look back I can't remember a time when he got a good match out of a lesser talent. I guess the...

    Wrestling With Wregret

    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjCDlbCvET6a6K53TV9ZhZA Anyone else checked out this youtube show? I think its one of the best out there for covering wrestling. The guy has good depth to his views, but also has a good sense humour and a distinct style. I really like his top eight lists, and...

    When nice guys/human beings suceed in wrestling

    I use the term "nice GUYS" but it could apply to a woman too. Was just listening to Jim Cornette's comments on Daniel Bryan's retirement speech. And he commented on the fact than it was a moving speech because it seemed to come from the heart and didn't feel like a scripted promo written by a...

    Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt New Tina Fey comedy

    Created by Fey and starring Ellie Kemper (US Office, Bridesmaids), Jane Krakowski, and Titus Burgess. Its a Netflix own series and the first season will be up from Friday. Saw the trailer the other day and I think it looks really good. Anything Fey is involved in I will watch. Kemper looks a...

    Did The Million Dollar Man work as a manager?

    Without doubt one of the best heels of the 1980s and early 90s. But when Dibiase had to retire from the ring and go into management it just never seem to work as well as before even though it was basically the same character. One of the reasons for me was because it is much easier to be cocky...

    Tatanka's Unbeaten Streak?

    When I was a kid/teenager during the early 90s Tatanka was one of my favourites. I was impressed by how long his unbeaten streak lasted, and liked how he was different to the likes of Hogan, Sid, Taker etc.. So three questions. 1. How important was Tatanka's unbeaten streak in getting him...

    Was Vader Wrestling's Greatest Ever Big Man?

    The guy was had one of the most distictive characters, and a impressive looks of anyone from his era. He had a decent promo and of course could do unique things in ring for a man of his size. The feuds against the likes of Flair/Sting/Hansen/Bulldog/Jack must rate as some of the best from the...
