Pennington >>> Carter. Chad's got a *gun* for an arm and is the future of that franchise. QC is still an upgrade as a back-up. Maybe this is where he'll shine. He can be the Chris Chandler for a new generation. I don't see him as a starter or someone who can hold his own and win the big games.

Nick showed ads like these 10 - 15 years ago. They were so campy looking.

Has anyone else read this? I'm interested in reading this but I just want to see if someone else here has checked out the book.

Would it be like that movie where that dude's head explodes? Scanners? Pssh, if we're relating mod battles to cult horror movies, I've got this one in the bag. YES! That's the flick. Good stuff with the guy's head exploding like a pumkin filled with a firework. I can probably hold my own with a horror buff such as yourself since I grew up on the crappy censored movies USA use to play at nights. Friday the 13th marathons were of teh ownage back in the day. Hellraiser got so lame.

At least you'll be of some use to me then before I feast on your organs. Mmmm...organs...

Wouldn't that be incest?

Hey...a mod's battle royale. Where's Tom? Washin his panties at home. BIATCH~!

I want a Full House forum even though I never watched the show. It sounds spiffy.

Ninja Warriors for SNES. The game looks beautiful (great detail to background and characters) and some of the moves are just savage looking (overhead back breaker and throwing a guy by their feet comes to mind). The music also sets a nice vibe to the game for each level. I wish the creators would have followed up with a sequel to the SNES version since the ending to the game posed the question about whether things would be okay once the cyborgs completed their mission.

Happy birthday Papacita. Maybe you can rent Chyna out since she seems to be willing to do anything for cash nowadays (sex tape with X-Pac anyone?).

It was harder to get into the HOF a couple years ago. Since then, more ballots have been given to people with little or no in-depth knowledge of wrestling history. I already explained why I said that and how my comments were meant to be taken. You wouldn't happen to be a WON voter would you? Aja Kong needs your vote. Meltzer having no influence on voters is mularkey considering that most readers knowledge about wrestling has come from reading his work since there's not many other strong information outlets like his.

Could you elaborate, please? I'd say the Dragon Gate guys are doing fine. Or are you referring to the students post-DG/Toryumon split? I'd like to see if the guys develop more and move on to somewhere else like New Japan or All Japan and how they do there. If the guys like CIMA and Dragon Kid find prolonged success outside of Dragon Gate's then Ultimo did something right when he trained those guys and that's a good reflection of him as a trainer. Even trainer's in wrestling can be considered HOFer's.

It's hard to take your advice when you're telling me to go "suck a dick." More pot, kettle, black. And you think this didn't cross others people's minds? Lesnar and Benjamin haven't even hit their primes while Lesnar is gone from wrestling now. Brock's "impact" hasn't shown any legs to stand on as we're only a couple months removed from when he was working in the WWE while Angle is on his last set of legs with nothing to prove himself HOF worthy. Benjamin's "breakout" match with HHH was never given the treatment it should have gotten and really hurt both guys. Neither Lesnar or Benjamin are currently relevent in wrestling but they could be players if Brock comes back and Benjamin improves as a worker. Angle's amateur wrestling doesn't mean anything and nor do the people that he supposedly inspired who have gained even less than he has. If Angle's amateur career and WWE run had the type of impact that Meltzer is trying to pass off on folks then guys like Rulon Gardner, Alexander Karelin and Lennox Lewis would have accepted the deals the WWE offered them in the past to work with Angle and Brock. Neither guy took the deals (which were very generous at the time) so this cancels out the "influence" Angle has had on legit athletes coming into wrestling after seeing Angle do it. Maybe in the next 5 years or so an amateur wrestler boom will occur and then we'll find out if Angle's wrestling career had any effect on retired and out-of-work Olympic amateur wrestlers deciding to get into pro wrestling. To me, Ultimo Dragon has HOFer written on him but I want to wait to see how his students do before I'd feel comfortable voting for him. Same deal applies to Angle. He's someone who has had a short career with lots of peaks and valley's and I'd like to see those smooth out before I'd consider giving him a nod. I'd like to see him wrestle for a few more years and then retire before I'd vote him in since as it stands, he's a weaker candidate than HBK who had little in the way of drawing power and longevity. My "fuck Angle" was more directed at Meltzer's over done praise of Angle. His praise is like saying "let's eat" when dinner is still an hour away from being made. Give it time.

New skins are in the plans but they won't be created any time soon unless something changes.

The little girl he found was the wife of the friend he had who got killed.

You talk about fan ignorance and lazy work... I don't see one thing in that post that is actual fact. You are just assuming things. You don't know how the Hall of Fame was started or who actually has ballots. I hate people who make judgements without even knowing what they are talking about. You're assuming I don't know what I'm talking about. Pot, kettle, black. How the WON HOF got started and who holds ballots aren't big secrets kept from the public. Go to WrestlingClassics.com and check out the WON folder and all of it's threads. All of the stuff I mentioned above is scattered around in there. If that's not your cup of tea then you can e-mail one of the WON's c-creator John D.Williams at tOA and ask him for information. Todd Martin, Richard Sullivan, and CrimsonMask, posters at WC.com, have made it known that they hold ballots while their knowledge of wrestling history is abysmal. Others at the message board have also said they hold a ballot so it isn't a big secret.

I wish the best for Tenta and his family. His last "high" profile wrestling gig was working All Japan's RWTL with Genichiro Tenryu a couple years ago. He looked like he was in bad shape.

The first batch of guys got in because Dave and a couple other buddies of his threw their names in who looked like "HOFers" at the time. This is why Backlund missed the first class because of how badly Dave criticized Backlund over the years. Personally, I'd say his disdain towards Backlund stemmed from his inner Flair fanboy since Bob was his antithesis in nearly every way. On that note, fuck Meltzer for being such a lazy hack these last several years. Fuck Angle for getting in when he's not even good enough to sniff half the jocks of the guys who are legit HOFers. Fuck the WON HOF since it's a sad joke gone wrong. Last but not least, fuck the ignorant fucks who Dave has handed ballot's too like candy without seeing if their knowledge of wrestling warrants a ballot. Stick a fork in the WON HOF Meltzer, it's done. The HHH circle jerking will be ridiculous next year. I am already dreading the masses of dimwits who will come out of the wood works to push for HHH making it into the HOF when he's had just as many "great" years as Angle has. Fuck Meltzer for helping foster fan ignorance with his lazy work. But I digress.

Both those stories came out about 10 and 15 years ago respectively. Batman #442 was when Drake put on the Robin costume for the first time. Batman #457 was the issue where he officially became Robin. Cat's son was killed in Superman #93 (2nd series) if I'm not mistaken.

This line-up reeks of the New Defenders. Bendis pussed out in the grand scheme of things and missed his Scourge quota for killing folks off. This line-up looks dumb since half the team is composed of loner's (Spidey and Wolvie) and people fans have never cared about (Spider-Woman in any incarnation and Marvel's "SURPRISE GOTCHA~!" character Sentry).

Man-Thing made his 1st appearance in Strange Tales #1 (1971). He had his first full story in Fear #15 (1973). Swamp Thing made his first appearance in House of Secrets #92 (1971). Man-Thing made his debut first as his book came out a couple months before Swamp's did.

The Over Generation Army - Mitsuharu Misawa, Toshiaki Kawada, Kenta Kobashi, and Tsuyoshi Kikuchi in the early 90's.

Did Mike Lano register here or something?

I'll let you in on a little secret.... I'm really Adrian Street. Cheerio sunshine.
