I wonder what happens when Kevin Dunn is gone.

I want to say Chris Jericho cut the first promo in that manner. "Because at unforgiven ... it's going to be ... hell in a cell!" It literally doesn't matter what the words are or who says them, the cookie cutterness is all we get from it. "Because at No Way Out ... it's going to be ... your last ride!" They do promos for sound bites in the video packages.

When wrestling twitter is filled with Dylan and Kris Zellner, I don't see how these statements make sense.

Dave Meltzer stuff
I don't like Seth Rollins or Omega, but how is Omega more of a WWE guy they want then Rollins? Very bizarre statement.

Comments on my first show? How is the format? TV will give details on the more storyline matches.

Dave Meltzer stuff
***** started in 1989 with Flair/Steamboat. ****** started in 2017 with Omega/Okada. 7 stars won't be until the 2045, so we can relax about that one.

Wrestle Kingdom 11
I don't know how anyone could bash Omega-Okada, like Flair-Steamboat, this match added a whole new star to our star rating system.

Man... what is a 5 1/2 star match? Now I have to rerate my entire database?

Without looking it up what were the best matches of 2014 or 2015? Can you rattle them off like we could for 89 or 92 or whatever? No, but in 2014-15 I watched thousands of matches, while in 89 and 92 there was few matches that were meant to be on that level. If 89/92 had monthly ppvs, and I had access to footage from every promotion all over the world at my fingertips, I would have trouble remembering too.

Come on the great matches of 2016 will match up nicely with the great matches of the 80s.

Any other longterm fans starting to feel alienated by the current fanbase?
I don't know about this. I think there are moments people will/do talk about. Pipe Bomb promo. Cena-Lesnar. Rollins cash in at mania, etc... I think our interaction with younger fans is lower, so it's difficult to see.

Any other longterm fans starting to feel alienated by the current fanbase?
I don't disagree at all, though I think the transition from the 70's to the 80's and the 90's to the 2000's was a lot smoother. Hate to see what it's gonna be like in the 2020's though. The way it is going tells me it is going to have even more big spots, big moves and more video game style wrestling. Smoother, or just less people had a platform?

I' m sure 70s fans felt the same way about 80s fans. 80s fans felt the same way about 90s fans, etc...

[2000-01-14-CMLL] Olimpico & Antifaz del Norte & Tarzan Boy vs El Satanico & Rey Bucanero & Ultimo Guerrero
I really enjoyed this one and man am I ever getting pumped up for the Satanico vs Tarzan Boy match (that exists, right? Please say it does!!). This is a really cool version of Los Infernales with Buccanero being the pirate to replace Pirata Morgan and UG being great as always. I love their control segments. The whole match just is fun, especially the later dive sequence. *** 1/4
