Grimmas

That would be freaking awesome, with the BIG IF being they treated it as a big deal.

How is a Russian heel outdated???????

I like the idea that repetitive actions is boring and a bad thing, when that is the stuff that gets over. When you have built that stuff up over time and then you change things up a bit it gets even more over.

What is a one liner or thought about wrestling that you can't spin into a discussion, if not what is the point of posting it on a discussion thread. Anything you can think about relates to a broader topic.

What is your favourite or the most bizarre you can find?

See the issue is that post had no responses, while you could had started a thread about kayfabe brother teams and had an interesting discussion. The mega threads lead to a stifling of conversation or great discussions being buried and missed due to so many any other posts.

I agree that Extreme Rules just being a better version of WrestleMania is annoying, however doing three stright ppvs is not a bad thing. Vince Sr. used to book MSG title programs one way. 3 straight matches at the Garden. It worked wonderfully then and still could work today.

As long as you don't shut these types of threads down once they (inevitably, IMO) veer off into a bunch of different directions or start getting multiple replies to posts that may be worthy of their own thread just like the comments megathread did, it's got a good chance of working. We'll still lose some of the randomness that made PWO so much fun and unique compared to other boards, but hopefully we'll retain a good portion of it. I guess it's up to us board members who enjoyed all the neat things in the comments megathread to now bring as much of that type of thing out into the regular board if we want to keep that vibe going. Challenge accepted! I don't understand the point of the post that doesn't deserve a response? Isn't that what twitter is for?

If I remember correctly 1/1/96 was a year in review show or something and they just aired a ppv match from 95.

You legit think Lance Storm was as over as Rusev is?

The only guy who has gotten over as a heel. He has been wrestling for five years and only doing long matches for a year. In that time he has had great matches with everybody and seems to get better every match. He does every small thing great and is tremendously charismatic and great on the mic. Bray Wyatt had a similar run into a match with Cena at Mania and look how more important the Rusev match felt compared to the Wyatt match.

Orton, yes. However, you need someone as a top heel. Rusev is the best candidate, so screw everyone else.Best as in "better than Luke Harper?". Yeah, no. Luke Harper is great and can be a great guy near the top of the card, but Rusev has proved he has something really special.

I want to pile on in the Goldberg thing. They shouldn't had even been thinking about beating Goldberg yet. He was still HOT! What the heck was the rush? Also, there was a million opponents he could face at the time. With everyone from a DDP rematch, Sting, Bigelow, Scott Steiner, Hogan rematch, Bret Hart, etc... This was such a HUGE blunder and the best case for horrible politics ruining the box office of wrestling.

Orton, yes. However, you need someone as a top heel. Rusev is the best candidate, so screw everyone else. Make Rusev and Reigns your two guys that beat EVERYONE. Rusev can crush Bryan, Ambrose, Orton, Rollins, Ziggler, Rowan, Triple H, Sting, etc... and it will be fine, because you need to make someone. Actually, Sting would be a great opponent.

Why can't Rusev just beat everyone else on route to taking the title and facing a babyface Lesnar at next year's Mania for the title? I'd even take a Brock match at the Rumble and Reigns at Mania.

The problem is every page has a 3 page discussion on a single post. It has become a giant mess to follow any topic in there.

Why not make a thread discussing song lyrics that should be used as wrestling catch phrases?

In the discussion I brought up that you should make a thread and then if it receives no comments after a bit, then it gets moved into a mega thread.

What am I missing???? Kalisto involved in the tag, Neville video package. Boo I thought they were bringing in some people to feud with Torito.

What am I missing????

Week 3 of January 1983! A crazy week here with lots to talk about. First: What the heck? I guess they didn't like me sharing Junkyard Dog with them? I don't know, but what a bummer. At least they didn't declare war, so no biggie. We move onto the TV tapings and I had an alarming alert. I was told that Roddy Piper caused an incident backstage. Shit, do I have to fire Piper or fine him. What has he done??? What the heck? How awesome is this? Piper is the man and he is rewarded with a fun match on the TV! I just realized I could run dark and post match matches! So, that is going to help. Zbyszko and The Poffos debut with strong effort and the Spoiler and Martel started their angle. A successful show and my ratings are growing weekly. Speaking of The Poffos: Savage and Sunshine have great chemistry is very promising. Who needs Liz? I have big plans for Savage! The tags are to get him over and then to split him off into singles. Other great news that came out this week was the stealing of The Rock and Roll Express from Fuller. The tag division is building up well. The last bit of business this week an event: The opener which didn't show up because I had too many segments was Bret Hart & The Rock'n'Rolls beating Kabuki, Rip Rogers and Bobby Bass. This was a loaded show three title matches and one title change. Step two of the future unification match was Kerry winning the Brass Knuckles Title. Wahoo and Valentine going 18 in the main event was the best thing on the show! So, there is a major issue. The NWA won't let me run in the South East. Leaving the NWA might be suicide at this point, so I might have to focus in on the South West. It will take longer, but it's possible.

About to watch the Hall of Fame and then waiting for Musgrave and my sister and her boyfriend to come over and watch the show. Getting a pizza and enjoying tonight. Also, my wife agreed to watch the show if she could get drunk, so that will be fun.

So, I will be checking in every Monday of the game for a weekly report. Week 2 of January 1983 was an interesting week. There was a lot of debuts, a mistake and some happenings. There was even a title change! Let's start off with our second TV show on Thursday1 As you can see, no problems on the show and the popularity went up everywhere it aired! A little less attendance, but I'm not going to complain about this. Lots of debuts here and there was some problem with the overness of the youngsters. I think it is only a matter of time though. The two big news coming out of the show is Barry Windham winning the TV Title and the beginning of ruining Bruiser Brody. Brody is PISSED. I fired his friend and he jobbed clean to Bundy. Brody is a cancer in the locker room and the first big show I can book him on, he is losing clean to Bundy as a send off. Next up was my first event. Originally scheduled for the Louisville Gardens, problems arouse: So, stupid South Eastern Championship Wrestling would not allow me to run in the South East due to some non compete clause. Also, you can't change the name of a show once you start booking. All this comes down to a show at Sam Houston Coliseum entitled Louisville Gardens. Oops. If I was doing this solely for fun I would start over, but it is what it is. What a successful show. B-, 8,100 people and it helped me in my home base. My roster is awesome now and it really made booking a show easy. Running it down, Bundy, Windham, Hennig & Hart and Steamboat were just put in spots to shine. In sad news Hennig and Hart had zero chemistry together as a team, which might change up some future plans. I put Martel over The Spoiler as just a match to get Martel over, but the chemistry between them was great. I may continue these two together. The main stuff on the show was Freebirds-Von Erichs moments and The Hammer becoming the main singles heel. Hayes & Gordy retained their tag titles, cut a promo and then took out Kevin before he defended the title against Valentine. Valentine then took Kevin to school and took the NWA American Heavyweight Title. This is step one to building to the unification match in July between Valentine and a Von Erich. Coming out of this show, I still wanted to run in the South East. Which means I had to end my non-compete relationship with the Fullers. Sorry. They did not take it well: With Hart and Hennig not working, I may steal the Rock and Roll from Fuller, we will see. WAR IS ON, BABY!

They only matter if I care if the guy gets over or not. If Rusev lost every match this last year would he be over?

I dowse off and Thatcher loses?
