The Buzz

Umm, Ken Shamrock was fighting professionally YEARS before he was ever a pro wrestler. As previously mentioned, Shamrock started Pro-Wrestling around 1990. I believe he was trained by Buzz Sawyer and at the urging of one of the Malenko brothers got into Japan to fight.

I'll say that to me the attraction would be greater if I hadn't seen Foley in that six man tag match, and if Sting hadn't been injured, which is obviously affecting his work.

Very sad for anyone that young to die. RIP

It's times like this they could have just called up that self-destructive egomaniac and apologized. I'm sure he rehabbed his knee by now. (Ultimate Warrior) I don't see why they didn't just do the Jerry Lawler thing with the four legends and Mickey Rourke in his corner. Atleast the match would be decent.

It'll be cool to find out if this fight really happened or not. Because I would love to for the hearts of the certain type of mma fan that constantly bashes wrestling to be broken. Considering Ken Shamrock was a professional wrestler before he ever had his first professional fight, the current ufc champion is a former pro-wrestler, Dan Severn has been doing both simultaneously his entire career, and various mma guys do wrestling for big paydays. If this did happen it's just another reason for that one type of mma fan to knock the bashing off.

Sting was GASSED and sucking air like 3 minutes into his match with Kurt this at Destination X Well it happens to everyone on occasion. I mean you have your ironmen like Angle, Flair, and Hart who I don't think ever gassed out. But when you got a guy who probably can't train cardio a whole lot due to a knee injury, him sucking air ain't much of a surprise. I don't see why they don't have him drop the belt rehab the knee for a few months so he can go out and wrestle a few final matches in the type of condition he was pre-2009.

I've enjoyed quite a few of his movies. Constantine Devil's Advocate The Day The Earth Stood Still Street Kings The Bill and Ted Movies Parenthood The Replacements The Lake House Speed Point Break Bram Stokers Dracula. There are probably quite a few more, but I'm drawing a blank. He's got charisma and plays his parts well enough. He's in the vein of the great action stars where he's not technically a good actor, but he's got the presence to be a leading man regardless.

Two of my favorites wrestling again. With the way Sting has been working the last few months since his knee injury and surgery and the way Foley's been looking this could be a bad match. However, Sting has done some good stuff recently with Joe and AJ and Foley always brings it for big matches so maybe it'll be something good.

I'm in for another round.

This may be one of my least favorite builds toward a mania ever. Although cheesy pyscho triple h is better than racist triple h from the Booker T match.

Big Show looks to still be in his WM 24 shape, He may be a little heavier but he looks just about the same to me. I know he wanted to get down into the 300s again according to an interview, but it's not looking like that will happen.

Just turn off images in your control panel. You'll be gay porn free forever. That's my suggestion. Thanks for the tip, that'll help out.

Am i missing something, or is the raw thread going to turn into the gay porn is war thread each week.

I'd rather see the Lawler/Jericho match at this point then a gauntlet with those three.

This angle is losing steam by the week, they kind of need to start giving a hint at what direction they are going to take.

Makes me wonder if they will attempt a Taken sequel, obviously a much different premise then the first movie. I think the character has some legs to do another movie, but it's a good stand alone if not. That Street Fighter movie was horribly marketed, and from what I've read it was horribly made. Hoping to see Last House on the Left and Witch Mountain soon.

Fat kids can only get picked on for so long before they snap. I do like the new look for the most part of Joe, now if only he could go back to the personality of the bloody towel carrying badass of 05-06.

I too enjoyed the Rodman match quite a bit. I think it was on the same show as Sting vs Sid, which was one of Sid's better matches in his last WCW run.

C'mon. I'm still waiting for a "room is spinning" reference or post of that nature. All due respect, it DOES suck that he's died so young but making light of death isn't exactly something that's unheard of around these parts - or anywhere at all for that matter. Some people just use humor as a way of dealing with a shitty circumstance. Besides, this is a thread at TSM, not the guy's wake. What was the original title of this thread? It's still stupid to make jokes about someone dying, regardless of the platform. But free speech is free speech I suppose.

I believe Foley and Warrior each sold pretty much all of their gear or most of it as well. So you can probably find a good deal of that stuff on ebay.

I did respect the man while he was living for living his dream. Didn't matter whether I was a fan or not. Hell George Bush could die today, and I wouldn't sit there and say yayyyyyy Bush is dead. He was a horrible president so he didn't deserve to breath another breath. Yayyyy Britney Spears died, bout time for polluting the radio waves with her horrible music and taking up my valuable tv space with her personal problems. But fuck it, no use in getting to an argument on the forums on this matter as judging by the thread I'm way out numbered.

Man what a disgusting thread for the most part. Whether he died because of something he was putting in his body or because his time was up, he still deserves the same respect anyone deserves when they pass. He wasn't the greatest of all time, or even one of the good ones. But he did do more than he should have based on his talent level, and that counts for something. Sounds like he was a genuinely good guy from the comments I've seen today.

I'd much rather see the real Ultimate Warrior, then yet another tired and stale impression. Although it would be cool to see Haas on the big show.

I hate to be the guy to say he hated a movie that almost everyone else liked, but I was really disappointed with this. I do tend to find something likeable about most movies, and I will say this is worth watching and has a few small laughs. I just didn't find it gut busting like a lot of the recent comedies of the last few years.
