    Is Izzy a botanical arrangement for WWE?

    She's a legit fan turned plant. WWE realized what they had and are capitalizing on it. They move her front and center in crowds when needed but she started out as just a fan. Heck. They've tried launching and recording a WWE kids show which would have Izzy as the kid host and interview...

    Wrestling Challenge 2017

    I cannot really give a specific motivator. Because it differs from match to match really. It's one of the reasons I really try to not do "numbers" ratings. I get ornery like this

    @RedDwarfTechy another name for you to look up. Shinjiro Otani. Arguably one of the best but at the same time unsung junior/cruiserweight wrestlers of all time.

    Wrestling Challenge 2017

    Because I feel it falls just short of being perfect/fantastic. And why differs from match to match. I'm actually not a guy who tends to rate stuff by numbers or stars or snowflakes. I just tend to rate how much I enjoy something. But I'm sticking to the number system here since it is the format...

    Anthem Has Officially Acquired Control Of TNA, Dixie Carter To Resign

    It is practically the Anthem Media Group logo inserted as the A in impact. Also looks like a RUSH album cover

    How would you book John Cena turning heel?

    Basically do what they are doing now on Smackdown but ramp it up. Turn him into the sour, grizzly veteran who refuses to hand over his spot to the younger talent

    What happened to Brock?

    Because every time he shows up it is the same thing over and over. No one sans Triple H and now Goldberg were presented as actual threats to Brock. What is the intrigue in watching someone fight a monster if you know the monster is going to win? They tried with Roman but his issues with the...

    Who do you think would win in these fantasy real life street fight matchups?

    Haku ripped handcuffs to pieces and beat up 8 cops while being pepper sprayed. He's also torn a man's teeth out of his face using only his index and middle finger

    Sasuke is one of wrestling's great mad men. He's a complete nutter and does insane shit at the age of 47. Heck just a few weeks ago I saw him dive out of the ring inside a wooden barrel donky kong style. All hail

    Antonio Inoki (NJPW's founder), Hase and Atsushi Onita have all served on the national diet (Japanese parliament). The Great Sasuke has sat on the Iwate Prefecture Assembly, becoming the first masked legislator (he refused to take off his mask and reveal his face even when taking office). Sadly...

    The other man in that match, Hiroshi Hase. Is now the Japanese minister of education, culture, sports, science and technology

    There's a match between Muta and Hiroshi Hase where Hase busts Muta open the hard way as payback for being bloodied in a earlier match. Muta bled so much all blood in wrestling since is measured on the "Muta Scale"

    The 1994 Super J Cup is worth a watch. Not sure if it is up in full but that's a great show. Other names for you to watch. All of these guys have great singles and tag matches to their names and you will probably enjoy most of their work if not their big matches. Minoru Suzuki Satoshi Kojima...

    The Okada vs Tanahashi series is recommended viewing, and doesn't require you to go that far back in time. Try to watch them in chronological order so you can see how they grow and adapt to each other with time. The shibata vs Ishii series is also good. Also look up a fat guy named Shinya...

    What's Next For Kenny Omega?

    Omega is locked into a longterm deal with New Japan from what I have been able to piece together. Not to mention he lives in Japan as Leo said. Most likely he is taking a break and comes back some time in the spring/summer. It makes sense considering the results on the 4th and 5th

    WK11 Forces Big Mania Change

    Meltzer also hand out 5 stars to the young bucks like it was candy. He has his obvious biases. Very few WWE matchups would be able to get anything close to 6 stars from Meltzer since it just isn't a product he prefers. To Dave's credit he acknowledges that he has stuff he prefers most of the...
