Really good show and I didn't expect you guys to bring up the Coates book but I thank you guys cause it reminds me that I have to read that book. I'm looking forward to the Viro Small and Bearcat Wright research cause those are guys that I barely know and kinda feel embarrassed that I don't know much about those two.

Well I was wrong. http://squaredcirclesirens.com/wwe-divas-starring-on-wwe-network-shows-next-week/

Triple H harps on now that he does weight training like an athlete instead of a bodybuilder. The language he uses when he's talking about looking for new talent is athlete and being an athlete. It seems like his vision of new talent is that they have to be similar to today's modern athlete.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Wrestling over time has looked at what people want in their male pop culture sex symbols and have applied it to the top of the card.

It makes him look like he has fleas. I get it that his "thing" is to be grungy, but does he really have to look so damn dirty too? Then again, his move is called Dirty Deeds. Why wouldn't it? Tamina was still on Raw - and Total Divas - weeks after the Snuka controversy (she was even identified as "Tamina Snuka" on the latter), so I don't see that affecting Table for 3. Total Divas was edited before the Snuka indictment and Naomi/Jimmy Uso are off the show next season. So most likely we won't see her on there in a highlighted role in the future unless Snuka is totally clear. Plus the Table for 3 was mostly going to be about them being the daughters of these "WWE Legends".

I'm guessing the Table for 3 with Tamina, Charlotte and Natayla will never see the light of day.

Main Event hasn't been bad lately. It's been mostly Kevin Owens and a Team BAD showcase show.

I'm watched a bunch of Zenjo matches from the 80's and she stuck out to me the most because she came across as the best all around heel in terms of being in the ring and playing a character. Dump is the best character heel but didn't bring the goods like Devil did. I've seen OJ say that her best stuff is in the 90's but I haven't seen her JWP stuff yet.

That's a damn shame if they ripped it from YouTube. I'll check it out later cause the CWF 70's footage they used in the Dusty/Flair looks really good when its remastered for their documentary stuff.

Has anyone seen the Flair vs Steamboat Rivalries shows yet? Do they use the 70's film?

I was one of those people that was that felt sympathy for Parv about the "greatest" vs "favorite" argument but for him to say that he is not voting other workers like Lucha and Joshi is pretty bad. EDIT: I missed the post where Parv wasn't writing off other styles and Parv brought it up to me. My fault entirely and I apologize to Parv for that. This project has not gone to waste for myself personally and I wasn't even planning on submitting a ballot because of my big blind spots. I said in "Everyone Submit A Ballot" Thread that there won't be a lot of WOS guys or Memphis guys on my ballot and Will joked that I shouldn't submit one. I said that because I haven't gotten to them but you what I have gotten to in the last 12 months: Lucha and Joshi. I have myself constantly lurking through boards trying to find recommended Lucha matches, looking at old Toreo results, looking at Luchablog through 90's CMLL TV results, reading multiple times Ohtani's Jacket's thoughts and stories on 80's AJW and Loss' Joshi thread. And the Genesis of it started partly because of this project. I haven't participated in the threads cause 1) My job takes up a lot of my time and 2) I'm still learning about these wrestlers from different places. So for the people here running the board, the project wasn't to waste as I've watched new wrestling cause of this. Take it for what it's worth and if you don't value my thoughts, I'm not gonna care cause I'm submitting a ballot that has to be counted.

In the last one, he didn't. Lesnar F5 and pinned Chono in their three way at the Dome. Interesting cause I listened to Cabanas interview Rocky Romero from years ago and he claims that there were 8K in attendance at the Dome when he debuted and won as Black Tiger IV. That is the same show Brock won the title and New Japan claimed 38,000 at the Dome for that show. The real no number has to be somewhere in the middle but that's how bad New Japan was during the time period.

Triple H's title run from 2002 to 2004 was obvious to me but also Kaz Fujita and Brock Lesnar's IWGP title reigns were to me were the worst. Just bad booking and bad performances during those Simon Inoki years. I agree with C.S. earlier that JBL's title reign was great when you looked back on it but it felt brutal through real time cause the fans wanted Eddie to be champ and JBL got elevated out of nowhere.

That's interesting. I did some quick searching cause I'm at work right now and found a thread that Bix started the Kayfabe Memories board. http://www.infinitecore.ca/superstar/index.php?a=prnt&code=02&f=37&t=60249&page=0 So he might know better. EDIT: Found this thread too with Bix in it. Looks like I'm going through a rabbit hole today. http://sportsandwrestling.mywowbb.com/forum1/12632.html

I'm not an expert on 70's wrestling but I'm gonna assume this might have been shown on WNJU which used to be a UHF station that originated from Linden. It might be that station cause remember talking to my dad about 70's wrestling and asking how did he see Championship Wrestling from Florida along with WWF when he lived in Newark as a kid. And then after Piper's death, I saw this: Once you hit the 35 second mark, you will see the call letters for WNJU and that was back in 83. And reading on the WNJU wiki page, WWF did have TV on the station in English despite the station having heavy spanish programming.

I was expecting something foolish like Sin Mistico but Mistic 2.0 exceeded it.

Well, you've sold me on me turning in a ballot. However, it's gonna be without WOS and not a lot of Memphis guys.

Interesting cause I have not seen the Philly Sasha/Charlotte match. Here is the 4 way from Philly.

Not sure if it's still out there, but Sasha/Charlotte from Mania weekend was on YouTube for a while. The match is still on YouTube but I wish there was a better fan cam of that. Also check out the fan cams of the 4 way between horsewomen from Philly and the Sasha/Charlotte from Albany. I'm happy this thread was put together cause Joshi and Lucha have been my blindspots for years and I've made it a point to myself to watch more. I've done it with Lucha but current Joshi I've been lacking on.

If you take out the Kane and Rollins stuff, this was a decent Raw episode. New Day standing tall at the end was something different but they need it plus I loved how they dragged Ziggler when they came out. Very surprised that they are protecting Sasha on TV and in her hometown. She came off as a star last night (even though her and Naomi doing the "Lying" meme was cringeworthy but I love them the same). Was AJ Lee this over with the big city crowds like Sasha was last night? I was not watching the WWE when AJ was featured on the TV so I don't know but I don't remember a woman being this over with the fans without purposely being eye candy?

NXT 24 was their best documentary on an event since they did the Mania of Wrestlemania about Wrestlemania 19. They spotlighted all four main eventers that night and everyone came off looking like stars but personable at the same. I agree with WingedEagle, this is best output of programming since they've launched the Network. They can get rid of the Jerry Springer stuff and the adult cartoons.

According to this article, her breast removal surgery was a success. http://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=20150924-00000097-dal-ent

Sad news indeed. Its weird timing because I've been doing a personal project watching Hokuto's career and this hit me out of the blue this morning. Prayers for her.

Didn't think the Table 3 with the ladies was that bad but wasn't that good either. It was just there. Now I left the Network on after that and now the live stream is showing with the Monday Night War docs with new Bischoff footage and he goes on the record saying that he didn't raid ECW of Eddie, Dean (and Benoit) and said that indeed Masa Saito made the deal with them and WCW. Interesting stuff cause I remember this tidbit from Between The Sheets.

The Legends with JBL show was really good. It felt like I was watching something that wasn't supposed to come out from WWE cause it wasn't over produced or edited to hell for certain stuff. I'm interested in Part 2 and his convos with other guys. I know Ron Simmons is in one so maybe he get candid about the issues he had when he left WCW and other stuff.
