Is Quiet Storm still around? I always liked that kid.

I knew Wade wasn't just selling when him yelling "Fuck" caused the commentary to get muted.

Colt Cabana is still doing the Matt Classic gimmick. He has made appearances in Chikara and PWG using the gimmick, and recently wrestled Jerry Lawler for some indy promotion using it. and Loss, the character that Joey Ryan is portraying in that Wrestling Revolution Project is exactly what your looking for. A homosexual who doesn't act effeminate or wear pink or whatever, he's just a wrestler who happens to be gay.

Also loved The Midnight Express theme. For in house WCW themes, I always dug the Hollywood Blondes theme (that then got used for about 50 other people)

Holy Shit, that is fantastic.....

I can't really say why, but when I was 9 years old.....Beefcake was my favorite guy on the roster other than Savage.

Has there ever been a positive word said about the announcing of Duke Doherty? That of Superstar Billy Graham? That of Larry Zbyszko or Rob Bartlett? Are there people today who claim that Sid or Giant Gonzalez was really underrated? Looking back at stuff you first saw a while ago doesn't mean that you're flip-flopping your opinion on it. Plenty of times it results in saying, "Oh, yeah, now I remember why I hated that." I actually have a friend who ranks Larry as one of his two favorite announcers. He also likes late 90's WCW. I also wanted to bring up Joey Styles, who seemed to be universally loved during the time ECW was around, but now seems to have a fair amount of detractors.

I would like to interject that talking about what kids today know is a fairly moot point. I worked the past 4 years at a public high school, and I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt.....these kids are fucking stupid. Self entitled, over privileged, egocentric....and really stupid. That doesn't really have much to do with anything, but it makes me feel better to say it....sorry. However, to make a better point, a lady I worked with whose son went to the school was a wrestling fan. He thinks Randy Orton is the best wrestler alive, he thought that the Chikara I loaned him was "gay" and he thought most of the matches on the Ric Flair DVD that WWE put out were "long and boring" Ugggh....

I also enjoyed the six man tag.....Balls, Axl, Shah, Balls, Axl, Shah

If were going with the Dudleys ripping fans to shreds, I present....... Heatwave 1999

El Generico has had fantastic matches in multiple companies during that time period, and is over everywhere he goes. Probably not enough, but I thought I would toss him out there.

Here it is!

Look at Johnny Saint, still entertaining as hell at age 70. I would say when the crowd is concerned by you taking a bump, instead of being entertained, it is time to hang it up. I was at a show the other night where the Rock and Roll Express and the Midnight Express were beating up the owner of the company, and DDP ran in for the save. Who took the Diamond Cutter.....Dennis Condrey. My first reaction was "of all the fucking guys in that ring, Dennis takes the bump?"

Best news I've read in weeks. That is fantastic news! I honestly hope he has one last good WWE run, and then maybe finds a way to work some indy shots or something. Would love to see him, Finlay, and Dave Taylor at King of Trios!!

I'd heard she opened a Sports Bar somewhere in Canada.

Fuck Joe and Kobashi....I miss looking at Jade Chung.

I got 50 out of 60

I will throw in "Squire" Dave Taylor and Johnny Saint

I find myself liking Daniels as a heel (Prophecy, not respecting the code of honor) but when he is a face, he just seems very homogenized and bland.

I presume you mean in terms of a push and not full benefits as a producer/agent. I should have phrased that differently. This guy deserved to be utilized better then how he ended up getting used. I'm glad he got the producer/agent gig.

Re-watching some of Jamie Noble's indy run from 2005, and he had all kinds of fantastic matches. That guy deserved a lot more than he ended up with.

I've hated watching her for a while now, because she is constantly wrestling men, and taking high impact bumps. Not to mention German Suplexing guys like Brodie Lee for her finish. She is far too thin, and every match I just keep thinking, something is going to snap.

Thank You. and as for thinking they weren't students, it was just something I had heard repeated elsewhere and believed.

Since everyone here really seems to know their shit, maybe you can help me out. Does anyone know where Obariyon and Kodama, Chikara's Batiri came from? I don't think they are Chikara students, but I can't seem to get any hints about their identity anywhere I've looked. Thanks.
