  1. OK, recently I was bored at work, and since where I work is about a 2 minute walk from 7-Eleven, I decided to pick up the magazine "The Many Faces of Rey Mysterio", seeing it was only about 7 bucks. It is a very interesting read, IMO. They talk about how Rey started in the business...how he went to school in the day and then wrestled at night...first under the name Colibri, then talk about how the transition went from Colibri (Spanish for Hummingbird) to Rey Misterio Jr. They also, for the benefit of fans who don't know, give a history about masked wrestling and how it drew it history from Aztek culture They continue through his WCW career as well...and while not showing any pictures they DO mention how Rey was forced to unmask. One pointless thing, but they added, was that they showed some of Rey's masks over the years. The open eyed ones, not the ones with the coverings like they had pictures of in the earlier part of the magazine. They have an interview with Rey Rey in the book, then give a quick run-throug of his WWE career before mentioning Rey's "Top Ten Matches" in almost chronological order. They were: 1) vs. Psicosis: ECW-November To Remember 1995 2) vs. Dean Malenko: WCW-The Great American Bash 1996 3) vs. Eddie Guerrero: WCW-Halloween Havoc 1997 4) vs. Ultimo Dragon: WCW-String Stampede 1997 5) vs. Chavo Guerrero: WWE Smackdown-July 25, 2002 6) vs. Tajiri: WWE Smackdown, August 1, 2002 7) vs. Kurt Angle: WWE-Summerslam 2002 8) vs. Matt Hardy: WWE WrestleMania XIX 9) vs. Chavo Guerrero: WWE-The Great American Bash 2004 10)vs. Eddie Guerrero: WWE Judgment Day 2005 But what makes this magazine for me for some reason is that they interview Rey Misterio...or Rey Sr., as he's known now. Talking about his history in the business and life with Rey Rey. Though he does offer a scary thought about him being brough in to be a tag team with Mysterio. They end the book other wrestlers singing his praises. The ones chosen were Rob Van Dam, Juventud Guerrera, Psicosis, Matt Hardy, Dean Malenko, Kurt Angle, and Tazz. If just for the Rey Sr. interview, this book is pretty good.

    That does not make any sense. She already has two legs, add four more and you get six. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I just re read it... I meant two more, not four more. Was just waking up when typing that. Sorry.

    Small Review Of The Rey Mysterio Special Magazine

    It's a WWE Magazine. What did you expect? Hell, I'm surprised that there were more than 2 WCW matches on that list.

    Ah, but does it have an interview with Rey Sr.? And pictures of Rey Sr. with mask when he was wrestling? That's what confirmed for me this was a buy, as until I got that mag I never saw anything of Rey Sr.
  5. *Guess I should be glad that Sailor Moon made the list and in the top 20 on both* ...what? That's the first anime I actually remember watching.

    Another thing about a possible DS Smash Bros... With the two screens, imagine the size of the levels you could battle in. Somewhat similar to how that DS Sonic Game is making two screens for the levels, I could easily see DS Smash Bros. having two screens for the fighting area.

    [about Alundra Blayze]She could star in TV Westerns...if she had four more legs.

    Bobby Lashley

    Actually, Blaster Lashley would work well. They can say his hometown is "Bartertown"

    Well, I've never seen the DVD, so didn't know. And kinda hard to read it because it was in a plastic bag that had to be removed before reading.

    RAW rating is shockingly bad

    <----ahem <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And we should care WHY? Seriously though, the rating, IIRC, is still better than during the early days of Raw. Weren't they doing in the 2s back then? Personally, I think most people felt this would be a nothing show because of the Homecoming show, and just decided to wait until next week to watch. We'll have to see.

    Im sorry, I just got a chuckle from that. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> For me, that's cheap. I thought they'd be around 10 bucks.

    What a fucking insult to his career, that match was barely like 5 minutes and he didn't even win. If anything that rematch in San Diego should have been here. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, later on in the Magazine, Matt Hardy admits he likes the re-match better than the Mania match.

    Eh. I doubt the Advance or even the DS could accurately capture the insanity. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I dunno... DS captured Mario 64 pretty well, from what I heard.

    A question: How come Nintendo has yet to make a portable version of Super Smash Bros.?
  15. ChrisMWaters

    FUCK!

    Is it "Da Boom Crew" bad though? Or, going by live action TV..."The Mullets" bad?

    More info on 'Wrestlemania: Anthology' DVD boxset

    Exactly, that's what they do on the Warrior DVD; they leave the promos and everything intact and mute the 'F.' They also blur the letters 'WWF' whenever they appear on screen. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ...even with the Block logo now?

    Is Bischoff winning the title in two weeks?

    I voted no, judging by Raw tonight.

    The Masterpiece is doing more with his nickname than Conway the Con-man is with his.

    Nah, then he'd be stealing Eugene's gimmick.
