Tamina is from “The Pacific Islands”. All of them?

My son (turns 3 on Tuesday) just asked me if Vega was Garza’s mommy. Cracked me up for some reason.

It’s a nice night here, so we have the windows open. My neighbors have to be wondering what the hell we’re watching with all this moaning.

I think they’re trying to make up for all nine years that Edge missed in this one match.

I think this match is just an excuse to show off the many amenities of the Performance Center.

Why the fuck am I seeing Hyundai and Modelo commercials and shit on the network? When did that start? I haven’t had the network for a few months.

I bet Seth Rollins is pissed he didn’t get to use the gym to do a bunch of CrossFit moves in his match. Also, this ref’s voice is weird.

On a scale of 1-10, how gag-inducing will the overly-dramatic montage that will surely open Wrestlemania this year be? I’m saying 12.

I can totally see a scenario where Borash comes in with the way he wants to shoot those matches and Kevin Dunn gives him a “Nah. That’s not how we do things.”

There are probably a lot of old-timers that would've stuck with football if that'd been the case back then.

Holy shit. The Benoit episode is amazing. So emotional. I was laying with my two-year-old son when I started watching it. I had to put him to bed before I could finish. It was too much holding him and thinking about how a father could do something so awful to their son. I just finished watching it and I’ve had to just lay here and sort of recover a bit. It doesn’t pull any punches. I mean, for those of us that were following closely at the time, there are no big revelations or anything. It’s just so gut wrenching to hear it told by people who were so close to Chris and Nancy.

This is where my feud with MLD starts over him having me listed under the "other" contributers. Clearly, I am an elite-level PWO poster! I kid, of course. That was a wonderful post and I 100% agree with you. Stay safe, fellow PWO-ers! There is no other place in internet land that can touch this board for quality pro-wrestling discussion.

Flair's '89 has to be up there somewhere. Goes from the all-time-great Steamboat series to an all-time-great feud with Funk. Bryan Danielson probably had a year somewhere in the '00's that would be pretty damn great. Same with Kobashi ('04, maybe?).

I just realized that there is not a single thing from a Wrestlemania since XXX that I'd like to watch. Wait, I did love the first Roman/Brock match. So, one match out of five Manias.

Just turned on ESPN and it says at the bottom of the screen that they’re showing Wrestlemania 30 at 7 est tonight.

Man, fuck Braun.

If I'm a wrestler, and I'm working an empty arena match, I am damn sure having a spot in it where I get to yell out, "MY EYE! MY EYE!"

So, a friend of mine brought up this point: is it possible that Vince is waiting on the city/state to make the call on Mania since he probably will collect some sort of insurance if it’s cancelled? I’m not familiar with that kind of thing, but it seems like if he made the call to cancel, he’d lose that.

It'd mostly be dudes wildin' out on bath salts and all manner of illegal pets running wild. Again, I'd re-up my subscription for that.

Wrestlemania held in a stadium full of Florida Men might get me to re-up my network subscription.

Is this the first PPV (or whatever they're called now) since the rumors that they might move them off of the network and have people pay more for them? Kinda funny if it is.

The other day, Braun Strowman posted this: I was thinking, no, Andre would've never let himself get jobbed out like you have. It made me think that more guys do need to speak up and stop saying yes to every dumb thing they throw their way. The main reason that I really want AEW to be successful is that it would give guys an option. They wouldn't have to swallow the horrible booking, they'd be able to at least threaten to go somewhere else.

Guys, they can wring six more months out of the Corbin feud for Roman!

The part about "brought back the attention" is what made me pick Bret here. As mega-famous as Rocky has become, it's my opinion that he didn't do much to bring new eyes to pro wrestling. Bret was extremely over in Europe in the 90's and probably kickstarted a lot of young people's fandom there. Rock was/is insanely popular, but emerged in the middle of a boom that was started by Bret/Stone Cold/McMahon/nWo, etc.

I just had a big talk with my daughter about how sometimes something sounds funny in your head, but you should think about how it might sound to other people before you say it. Someone needs to have that talk with Wade.
