Steve Yohe's Top 100 Project
The voters were hand picked due to knowledge etc. I wouldn't of said this if any geek could vote. The six that people have left off are six of the biggest draws of all time, so I cannot fathom why they have done this, other than to get attention for themselves / the list.

Where the Big Boys Play #55
Really fun show guys, finally gotten around to finishing it. Sad no more MX anymore however.

Steve Yohe's Top 100 Project
Can't take this seriously personally, as it appears that Hogan, Flair & Rogers are left off of one ballot and El Santo, Rock & Austin left off of three.

WWE Network finally happening
If the WWE launch via online channels then they will need largish technical support team, both back end and customer facing that they wouldn't necessarily need if they launched via TV. I don't know if the cost of this would be significant enough to make a dent in any revenue however, I just thought I'd throw that point on there.

Voices of Wrestling - World Tag League Final review
I don't know about Yano vs Suzuki, but it seems surplus to requirements to me. A prolonged push as a tag team fixture with Yoshi-Hashi would be a start for Ishii.

Austin is recording with Cornette today.

I'd be very surprised that this would see the light of day in the UK due to the deal with Sky.

This could be the perfect quote to describe "first world problems."

WWE Network finally happening
WOW, I don't follow this story for a week or so and the goal posts have changed AGAIN. At least the WWE are consistent across the business as it pertains to changing things again and again.

Where the Big Boys Play #55
Dipped my toe into this on the way to work, and enjoyable so far as always. I dislike the burying of Zenk though Parv!

Dave Meltzer stuff
I was also pretty baffled by this when I saw it -- this guy had absolutely no clue what he was watching. Outside of the standard F4W 'crew'. I only really enjoy Stephen Lyons writing style as it pertains to columns or reviews. Really? I'm always amazed how he's been doing it for about 12plus years and has never shown any improvement. Don't rate him at all as a writer or reviewer. To be honest, he reviews the Classic shows on SkySports, and that stuff isn't that taxing to be fair. But now I think about it, you're right, his writing style has stagnated and is the same as it was years ago.

The Steve Austin Show
Maybe my favourite Austin show so far. Great stuff.

Shoots Review and Preview thread
I actually thought the Striker shoot was fairly good (RF one) considering he doesn't want to shit all over the WWE as he want's to go back one day. I suspect he can be quite condescending though to be fair.

Guys who got away with being bad
Mr. Softball himself, Sid, for me all the way here.

The Jim Cornette Experience
- Current WWE
I'm thinking this is just a set-up for a heel turn for Woods down the line, like in a month or two, after establishing the team. Maybe with Tyler Breeze attached to it. Hopefully. But I doubt it.- The Jim Cornette Experience
Cornette has also announced Jim Ross on next weeks show.- Quotable Wrestling
Art Donovan: ""Randy, is this one of the wrestlers? ...He looks like... he looks like a business man!"- WWE Network finally happening
Remember, if they put WrestleMania on the network, only the domestic PPV buy rate would take a hit currently.- WWE Network Weekly Schedule
I think airing the UK PPV's would be good fun, as I suspect MANY people haven't seen these. One Night Only is criminally underrated for instance.- signature line gifs
He just wanted a method to block gifs from sigs, not all sigs. There are some sites that are insanely masturbatory on their giffy sig.files, where it seems like 75% of the posters have created self indulgent epic gifs with every page is more sig.gif than text, and you get to the point where the value/annoyance of them collectively is "turn the fuckers off". I haven't noticed that as much here. John ~! reminds me of this.- The Steve Austin Show
Dusty show has been uploaded. I love Austin's little rant at the start of the show. - Current WWE
