    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    Monday Night RAW (January 1st, 2001) First thing I notice on this show is just how fat and out of shape The Undertaker actually looks. Dude's got a legit double chin almost showing, and his belly grew out a little. The long hair for Biker Taker is also just... such a bad choice. I know that by...

    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    Monday Night RAW (January 1st, 1996) It's the first episode of 1996, and they've got this fuckin' whacky gimmick called the RAW Bowl. :heston Four teams: The Smoking Gunns, Yokozuna & Owen Hart, Sycho Sid & 1-2-3 Kid, and Razor Ramon & Savio Vega. WWE has decided to go all out, with Earl...

    AND BETTER YET IT'S A MATCH AGAINST GLACIER, FUCK ME RAW. :maury No wonder WCW went out of business. Hundreds of thousands of dollars spent on a job guy. :lol

    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    WCW Nitro (September 23, 1996) Just a fucking hilarious observation, but I was half paying attention when suddenly Goldberg's music starts playing. I whip around to see if Goldberg actually debuts here, but nope, out fucking comes PAT TANAKA with Goldberg's music. :heston I shit you not, I...

    So Barry has been thinking dumbass thoughts, and it's time he comes clean... Why the fuck did WCW never do a nWo Canada sub-stable? It was right fucking there. You callously threw Bret Hart into the nWo, why the fuck didn't you make him split off and make his own stable? You had most of the...

    That build hasn't actually happened yet, it was fucking preceded by Shawn and the nWo basically threatening HHH. (And then Nash tore his quad). Bookdust has actually been a thing for months now.

    I retract my statement about them kicking out the Big Show. He literally showed up the next week in nWo gear like nothing even happened. What the fuck!?

    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    RAW: July 1, 2002 I do not like Shawn being in the nWo, he kicks out Booker T who was starting to be great, and then he kicks out the Big Show who was more of an OG member than he ever was. Then they're gonna claim Triple H is gonna join despite never delivering on that promise. God this is...

    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    Counter-argument, Triple H and other high ranking officials saw something in Batista far more than Heidenreich or Luther Reigns, which is why the first chance they got, Triple H convinced the writing team to make him a member of Evolution. It's entirely possible that Batista might not...

    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    June 10, 2002 Steve Austin has walked out because of the whole Brock Lesnar thing, and now every single superstar just buries him. I'm thinking to myself, what the fuck? Yes, him walking out is kind of shitty, but he's your biggest star in fucking years and you've literally been wasting his...

    It fucking sucks cuz it's just the worst possible circumstances. Could you imagine a nWo that had: Hollywood Hogan Shawn Michaels Kevin Nash Scott Hall X-Pac Big Show Booker T Fuck man, that could have been at least a little more entertaining.

    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    June 3, 2002 Alright, I'm turned around on Booker T being in the nWo. Guy's fucking hilarious with his banter with X-Pac while Big Show is corpsing in the background. Kevin Nash looks like he's playing babysitter and that's honestly hilarious. Goldust also desperately wanting to be in the nWo...

    May 20, 2002 RAW (Quick aside, RIP British Bulldog, should have gotten a ten count, not just a video package at the beginning) More nWo talk but what the fuck was WWE (they officially changed names on May 6) thinking in making Booker T a member of the group? Out of all the guys you could have...

    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    Man Scott Hall in 2002 is so sad but also really entertaining. He clearly knows he's gonna be fired, but he's still so fucking good at just everything. Wrestling, selling, facial expressions... If Scott Hall was clean I have no doubt he'd have been so much better then. Still on April 22, 2002...

    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    Man, Eddie Guerrero in 2002 is so weird, dude. When he re-debuts he's got a very clear American accent, but as he shows up more and more, his iconic Hispanic accent starts to grow. There's an episode of RAW (April 22, 2002), where he's on commentary and it's like the perfect halfway point...

    It doesn't make sense to me especially considering Billy & Chuck were taken together; although you could fairly argue they were the champions. I think it was an awful decision overall and really hampered their WWE run in the end.

    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    Also speaking on the same show (March 25, 2002, the infamous Brand Split Draft), what the fuck was the point of breaking up the Dudley Boys in 2002? What exactly did it accomplish? Bubba Ray Dudley teamed up with Spike Dudley and had a worse version overall of the tag team, meanwhile, D-Von...

    Grim Rants About Wrestling

    Well, first things first, this may come off as an unpopular opinion, but I really enjoy Billy, Chuck, & Rico as a group. They clearly got chemistry, are having fun, and tbh they were a *really* good tag team. The way it ended left a super bad taste in my mouth. I mean, you didn't have to...

    Just gonna do this all here because I know people seem to love my rants when I watch classic wrestling, so let's do the thing, and have a grand old discussion about some random thoughts I have when watching wrestling. :garrett
