I will put kneepads over my jeans and crop my shirt so I can fight any son of a bitch who says Magnum TA/Tully Blanchard 'I Quit'.

I always thought Spanky looked like Luther from the Warriors. He seriously should have done a Rogues gimmick and used the bottles on his fingers.

Reading JerryVanKramer's musings on the vertical suplex reminds me why I love wrestling. Not only is wrestling fun to watch, it is fun to talk about. I don't know if there is an entertainment form quite so open to interpretation and debate as pro wrestling. The width and depth of wrestling available now, and the venues for discourse, kind of amaze me still, after over a decade of being an internet fan.

Other attributes: Policeman: Company man who punishes other wrestlers. Backyarder: Might hit impressive spots or have a lot of charisma, but is fundamentally unsound. Freebird: Excels in multiman matches.

I am a big, big fan of the genre and I hope you can pull it off. I love the ideas you've floated thus far.

I love the Stretch Muffler.

Upon watching last week's WWE programming, I can definitively say that face Big Show is the worst thing ever. His promo with HHH and Stephanie made me want to cheer for the authority. He was just grotesquely smug and pandering. Breaking out the 'Yes!' chant was even worse. He made Cena seem cool in comparison, which I thought was undoable.

I'm just hoping someone will mention Bob Roop to preserve the last shred of kayfabe left in my tattered soul.

I'm watching RAW for the first time since the first Retro Raw because of Goldust... and my delusional hope that Dusty will be involved. What I wouldn't give for a nasty, bloody Rhodes/Shield brawl.

I had no idea that Kevin Sullivan was ever good looking. I'm in a bit of a tailspin now.

What I wouldn't give for him to have a Solomon Grundy gimmick and join the Wyatts as a latter day Onryo.

Metro Pro 2 years ago when Colt Cabana came to town. It was a hoot.

Married to someone who hates wrestling and I have a 10 month old. I have a 9-5 and she works nights, so Wednesday-Friday, I have the baby at night while she is at work and on weekends I have him the whole time. I generally watch Main Event and Smackdown when they are on. Otherwise, I don't watch as much as I used to.

Especially interesting once you realize who the contractor in the Ashes video is.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Woo-hoo! A fellow Metro Pro watcher. I live in KC and have been to a few shows. Fun little fed.

I always imagined that Stephanie and Jericho would have amazing sex.

I don't have anything to add to this thread, just that it bummed the Hell out of me. It's horribly sad to see someone become so deluded.

Imagine a Dawkins-esque atheist character in the South... The heat, it would be beautiful.

I think Frispo might be a better analogy for HHH. Almost food, but it melts after a bit into a gruesome puddle.

Being a child of the 80's and a fan of the Freebirds, today has been pretty rough.

I'm late to the party, but I will always swear that the Dusty Rhodes doc is the best. It is certainly my favorite.

I really like the way CHIKARA uses their GM Wink Vavasseur. He is technically a face, but he often makes pro-heel decisions because he is a clueless front office moron. The character is consistent in his wishy-washy nature.

They always looked scary, but not in a cool way. They looked like a team of the uncles you aren't supposed to be alone with.
