I'm curious about something, want to know what you guys think. Undertaker left in mid-1999 (or maybe sometime later in the year, it's all fuzzy to me), and came back the following year with the biker gimmick. I have a bit of a hackneyed theory that he changed his gimmick (which was very evil, close to Satanic by the time he left) because of his role in beating Austin for the title the night Owen was killed in the middle of the ring. I haven't heard any other reasons why he (alone or maybe in collaboration with Vince and/or the writers) chose to change the gimmick, but if any of you know more about this I'd like to hear about it. It's a sad bit of irony, that on top of that incident, his first match was Bret's first match after his other brother had passed away.

What I want to know is, do they need WWE's permission to use certain footage? And if they can't get it, will that be a roadblock for it's progress?

The USA special opened with a clip from the end of the Sheik match.

I think he might have been mentioned once or twice since he was doing that WBF saturday morning show on USA that lasted a few weeks.

He said it was up there one minute, down the next.

My brother put it on my Facebook. Maybe his source was erroneous.

Announced on the WWE's Facebook page: "BREAKING NEWS: Paul Levesque a.k.a. Triple H has been promoted to the post of CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment, effective from October 15, 2012. This also marks the official retirement of Vincent Kennedy McMahon from all the affairs of WWE."

This sounds awesome and intriguing in a way none of the other documentaries have been. I have to admit I'm rubbing my pennies together in hope that they breed, but I wish Dylan's friends the best of luck in getting this funded. For my part I'll spread the word as best as I can.

It's been well established how much inventory they have kept over the years. I'm sure they didn't pay anything insulting for something that's basically a link to how the company started.

He was lucky the FBI didn't haul him away.

"Look Prick, Go Away" - Dennis Miller, before he lost his marbles.

Don't forget Angle's milk bath.

They had their funny moments. It wasn't consistent, but some of it was comedy gold in my opinion. The one with Shawn giving random people backstage his finish had me belly-laughing.

For more reasons than one. Bret humping anything in the ring would just look weird.

The real low point of the Slaughter/Iraq angle was when Okerlund "heard from someone backstage" that Sarge burnt an American flag after beating Warrior for the belt in celebration of winning. And I think Slaughter said Vince wanted him to burn it on television, but it was leveled down to Hogan's shirt which was akin to burning the flag (also made for a great visual).

What was Pedro doing in WCW?

When I mean it I don't mean Austin, but the Attitude Era in general. It's what they needed to do to get attention, no matter how dumb a lot of it was (except Austin, Rock and others who knew how to be top guys in any situation when given the ball). Nash has never said he took credit for Austin directly, and even said in the article Steve did what he wasn't able to.

Jericho called Nash out on his comments about Chris and Eddie on Twitter, of course mentioning that WWE's worst year of business happened to be the one when Kevin was top dog in the company.

If it is him, he must have had some botched plastic surgery.

I've heard him take credit for it before, and how he explains it in the article rings true a little.

With all the jingoism shoved down our throats through the years, of course they are about kicking ass overseas. And it wouldn't surprise me if Linda is against taxing the rich, but would surprise me even more if she took a stand on it. Makes her an even more easy target for liberals then.

This only looks worse with the hindsight of Flair's other problems. If he managed to keep up his finances, this wouldn't merit such a negative saddened response. But because that isn't the case, one (including me) can't help connect the two. It's amazing that this would make stumping for Romney look like the high road.

The Scope in Norfolk, Virginia had a great look to it whenever WCW was there.
