Watching Smackdown from 2003 (Eddie/Cena parking lot brawl)
Billy Kidman just did the Cesaro swing and Rey did the Kidd kick (to Nunzio). This is one of the Smackdowns I am most fond of, always loved the parking lot brawl.

EDIT: obviously, none of these guys invented those moves.

People on gaf tried to convince me the second Ghost Rider was better than the first. After watching both, what the fuck is wrong with people who think that? Ghost Rider's not crank, and the shitty movie is like an xxEDGYxx version of a indie show. All spots that are so constant that I was completely bored 20 minutes in because they happen so fucking often and the Crank style is so fucking annoying.

1 was boring at parts and the CG on the skull looked terrible, but the second one is just insulting. Oh and the new Mephisto fucking sucks dick.

I was pondering going to Raw, but only like a month or so ago, so all the decent seats were long gone.

Looking forward to see if anything comes out of the UK tryouts signing wise/if anyone pops up on Raw. I did see a photo of Zack Gibson, Damo and Mastiff suited up outside the O2 this morning.

Apparently a 15 minute William Regal doc has shown up on the Network, anyone with it watch it? It must be barrelling through his career at that length.

Whole situation there is fucked until Vince cedes most of the control - no one can get over because he won't let them.

It got bad when WCW died and talent that was being held back in WCW or WWF couldn't jump fed and get a 2nd chance.

WCW dying is the worst thing to ever happen to pro wrestling- things would be so much better if it had lived.

Apparently, it's not searchable. The only way you'll see it is if it happens to pop up as filler on the WWE Network live stream as you watch it.

Starting to read Titan Sinking and it made me want to watch some In Your House just to see Mcmahon's grumblings coming to life from his commentary.

Nonetheless, while I normally hate Republicans and everything they stand for... I'd have to make an exception for Ric. :p

I'd vote for the Hurricane before I'd vote for a Republican. The current crop has already cost me thousands of dollars, and perhaps $10k more in lower unemployment if I lose my job.

Yes, the current batch seems especially diabolical. And that's BEFORE you get to the racism and homophobia and sexism and stuff. I'm awfully sorry for your position, and almost the same for all Americans who have to deal with Republicans. But imagine Flair in power. It'd be entertaining to watch, at the least!

From what I understand Flair is a lot more conservative from the fiscal side (ironic, I know). Like most wrestlers he isn;t homophobic and cool with gay marriage as he's friends with Pat Patterson. Y'know, he's a great legend but Patterson's greatest contribution has to be blanketing the entire pro-wrestling community in support of gay marriage.

Also, you probably don't want Hurricane to run. He's also a Republican.

If we're suggesting wrestlers for President then I nominate Karl "Machinegun" Anderson and the host of Cock Torturers, Doc Gallows. Free beer for every American! Mandatory, too!

Not really, if you think about it.

My kids are still too little for LEGO. My daughter has a ton of Duplo sets, but her favorite game is "Dad, build me a castle (so I can smash it the second you're done)!"

Duplo quickly moves into LEGO thankfully, nice easy shift into the smaller stuff. Helps there is a ton of licensed shit out there that grabs their attention.

I'm not sold at all on Balor, creatively. He's got no real character other than "I put on marketable paint and very stupid dreadlocks when I need superpowers", and he's okay, at best, on the stick.

However, I'm pretty positive the dude is gonna print money, at least as much as Bray Wyatt has (and probably more), so whatever, hopefully he has some good feuds.

No, I meant like Goldust's new makeup. He had a photo or two a couple days back, and it was sort of like a venom mouth. I couldn't tell you about Balor.

So not worth it
Terrible form to not know the proper spelling of Dresden, Germany. With it being all famous from the second world war and what not.

Good to see a German signing though, we need a new Berlyn.

Exciting group of NXT classmen.

Yeah saw that on Balor's feed the other day, no kids tshirts for him either :/

I guess here's where I say something shitty about NXT crowds but its the truth. Most people who love NXT don't have children. Most. So...I can see why. Maybe once he's on the main roster it'll make sense to make em.

GAF needs to watch Rugby League. My teams going good since they got their new old coach back. He knows what up, he knows about Sports Entertainment.

Here was last weeks game, probably the best of the year so far.

Rugby? eh, I...nah. Rugby's a sport for washed up drunks, isn't it? That's all I ever see.
