muslims are known for growing foot long beards, not beautifully curled stashes
Steve Austin would have to be it. I like The Rock, but when it came to matches he bored me more than entertained me.
I will post my bracket, but in a protest with Lawler being a 8 seed. Favorite 2 wrestlers of all time in a round 1 game, the NCAA thinks this is some bs.

HBK = Kobe for me.
yeah, fantastic great player(s), champions many times over. but the unlike-ability & locker room troublemaking makes me severely downgrade the greatness or all-timeness.

Interesting story from the Jericho podcast, Jimmy Garvin got hired as a writer for WWE a few years ago to work with Michael Hayes. Tried it for a few weeks then realized it wasn't for him and quit.
All mine as well except for Angle over Y2J

I'd prefer Brock but to see a legendary match
HBK
Sting
^ Now who would win that Sting/HBK match?
Like Bruce Prichard, he is a stooge and a lackey. Which is odd, based on his hell raising past
Now that JR is calling NJPW there is no reason to watch any other promotion
Also, do refs not count guys' shoulders down if they are applying a submission? Watching NJPW now and have seen it WWE a few times recently where a guy has an armbar or triangle choke on with shoulders flat on the mat and no count
Well yes, but refs should generally call a match straight. Otherwise you get situations like refs not counting 3 when a guy is hurt and the workers are ending the match because and the ref doesn't know and the "drama" calls for a 2 count.
Just another old man Transy hot take about modern wrestling
WWE announced today that Adam Rose and Konnor have been suspended for 60 days for their second wellness violations.
Hayes has always had a great mind for the business, he usually works on Smackdown. He got fired or suspended for a while then came back to the company.

That's where I was for most of Mania week. Now imagine it with as many people as you'd see on Black Friday.
Raw is in London tonight and being recorded now. Reportedly Shane will be in charge of Raw again and maybe Smackdown too this week.
So I ask, what exactly was the point of the WM 32 match if he is just going to be in charge every week.

I'm going to be working with ROH to promote Global Wars. Apparently, featuring most of the top NJPW stars, Lethal vs Cabana for the World Title, plus tons more to be announced.

Heisman that is really cool about ROH the Global Wars show is one of their biggest of the year, I hope you get to interview Colt Cabana...ask him about Punk :cool2:
Lots going on today...E! announced a spin-off series for the Bellas and their families. TNA is on the verge of being bought out because they have defaulted on monthly payments.
Lana, Renee Young and Maryse will be joining the cast of Total Divas. Guess that explains why she came back. Those three would almost be enough to finally get me to watch that show.
And yes after looking at the spoilers I may be more interested in the Payback PPV than Wrestlemania.

I've seen Mr Perfect and Undertaker with Paul Bearer on Regis and Kathy Lee. That was always an interesting combination.

I honestly can't take AJ Styles serious with that haircut. Really good wrestler, but that hair is nearly tragic enough that it won't be overcome.

Cool just happened and I'm sure Vince wanted that to help Reigns, and it did help his heel turn!
KO called him out on twitter and said that AJ had the same hairstyle as his aunt. He also, wrote this..
Oh yeah…You mean like he embarrassed me at the Rumble…or embarrasses himself daily with that haircut.https://t.co/PMDvsXkxn9

Hope not. I love him being awesome in NXT. I don't want him to come up just to get treated like Neville or Tyler Breeze. I think Balor is a legitimate top guy and unless you have main event plans for him, do not waste him.
JMO
- they should have brought Balor up for Mania in a match with Taker. Balor goes over by summoning the demon or whatever his gimmick is. It turns out it's the same force that Taker has used for 25 years and it has finally forsaken him for a new vessel. Balor is now unstoppable and Taker is freed from the control of the demon and can return to being an old biker dude and retire from wrestling.
- Have Shane take on Ripple Aitch in some kind of handicap match, that way Shane could have won and fulfilled the stipulation of taking over Raw with a win
- Replace Aitch in the main event with Ambrose. Ambrose outclasses Reigns for the entire match until Reigns resorts to cheating and wins the title via breaking the rules. Boom, Reigns is the champ AND a heel
- Move Kevin Owens into the Amrbose spot in the Brock match. Have Brock and KO beat the dogshit out of each other. Pretty simple.

I said this months ago that they should have booked him like that and it would have immediately elevated Balor as a main event guy from the get go.
Good for you, and I wish you well. I can easily tell you really enjoy it.
Working to try and be on a staff for a company like WWE or ROH. That's the dream. Baby steps and a pipe dream but it's fun.
Good luck with ROH. I love their roster and their booking. I still want Mark Cuban to buy it and make it a real deal.
If you can get a profile pic with Dalton Castle - do it.
Find out of the Briscoes are related to Isaiah.

Some interesting speculation around the net on Reigns....
Who knows if it is true but it is an interesting idea.
Gallows and Anderson will attack Styles and Reigns will turn heel. They will form the Roman Empire or The Empire with the possibility of the Uso's being part of it as well.
Who knows if it is true but it is an interesting idea.
I'm cool with him as a heel but don't want to see him do it in a stable. Just have him lose his ish and see everyone as a threat and lay them out. Just book him to be brutal and a physical force after snapping.
