The question "Which wrestling websites or blogs do you read regularly" should probably be a multiple selection/checkbox instead of a single selection/radio button. Don't know if you can change it now.

I'm about Kris' age, we were teenagers in high school when it came out. Why would we watch a kids' movie? About the episode - Jordan is generally good but by the end of the episode he was rambling like a lunatic.

I don't know how to describe what Kofi did here in the finishing stretch of the six-man - trust fall? - but I liked it.

I thought this bit was interesting, especially given the stat we hear about wrestling ad rates being much lower than standard ad rates: I had always assumed that UFC had similar ad rates to regular sports. Unless this is ass-covering from Fox.

And I like this heel Nia talking shit to Ronda about 1000x more than "Be a Star!" Nia they tried for a while there.

I'm no Seth fan but dear Lord, he's over. I don't know how this happened but he's a legit babyface star now, getting organic crowd reactions in his matches. Bravo, never thought it would happen with him.

Bryan's dragon screw -> heel hook finisher looks painful, like a submission should. Can't wait for Joe v Bryan next week, but it's also kinda sad, as it should have happened like a dozen times in WWE over the last decade.

Thanks! Good to see you're back in the saddle.

Tom Magee got the hell beat out of him by 6 or so people in front of his house this week. The photos of him are pretty rough.

Maybe I'm dense but I have no idea what "chaw" has to do with anything here. Are Kurt and AJ noted for their tobacco chewing?

What's his history with Hart? Why would Sean need to be discreet asking about him? Gary trashed Jarrett in his book, including printing the (almost certainly false) rumor that Roy Welch is Jarrett's father.

When I worked at the mall 20ish years ago there was an entire Big Dog store, and in the window there was a wrestling parody shirt. It was a shirt for Bone Cold Steve Pawstin. It had the Big Dog wearing a Stone Cold type leather vest. I must obtain this:

As I posted on Twitter (paraphrasing Sparky Anderson), let's not embarrass Okada by comparing him to Jumbo.

Is this the first yearbook appearance of that late-90s staple of live pro wrestling, the red dot of the laser pointer on a wrestler cutting a promo?

I don't see "rough-and-tough brawler" in Kevin Owens - I see a chubby neckbeard. Someone either here or on Twitter (Dylan maybe?) said he's like an avatar for the audience as he looks like a more in-shape version of them. (Apologies if I'm butchering that assertion.) Which is harsh but funny nonetheless.

Talking Smack reunion special after the show!

And they're working the figure four perfectly. The old shit still works.

Same here. I'll watch the beginning but I'll be switching to hockey if the show gets bad.

At a time where they're taking so much flak for the Saudi deal, I don't see much upside in having Hogan back in the fold. What could they possibly do with him that couldn't be handled by the legends already under contract who don't have tapes of themselves saying racist shit?

I did not know you guys were on Rantsylvania. That place was fun for a while, until Sean Shannon went off the rails. Did you migrate over to Michael Jenkinson's forum after it closed?

That's how I still get it. All Dave really cares about is writing the Observer like he's done it for 30 years, so I'd rather read it the way it's intended. If they had PDF versions of the print edition, or the issues were properly indexed and formatted for the web, I'd consider it. The rest of the website isn't a value-add for me - none of the podcasts are particularly interesting, what little bit of their message board I've seen seems like a wreddit you have to pay for, and their web template is awful.

A thread on Bruce's credibility morphs into yet another debate on Dave's. Can't help but think this is why Bruce rips Dave so much.

I'm mildly pro- on shodate in general, but if banning him stops the anti- crowd from derailing threads that would be preferable to the current situation. We seem to have forgotten the old saw "don't feed the troll".

His chest was such a mess after the GRRE the doctors won't let him perform. (For real.) You do know that Bryan worked the dark match vs Nakamura after 205 Live, right? I did not know that Bryan worked the dark match vs Nakamura after 205 Live when I posted that during the middle of the show last night. Humble apologies for my ignorance.
