On the HBK DVD, all of Diesel's promos from before IYH:GFBE are directed at Vince McMahon.

I have this nostalgic feeling and love for WrestleMania IX. I understand the PPV isn't good but I just love it... combination of the whole "theme", the outdoor atmosphere, it being the first WM I was able to see at my home on PPV. I also enjoy the first two matches of the show and often feel Steiners / Headshrinkers doesn't get it's due. Uncensored 98 is a PPV that you never hear anything about. The main event was atrocious... I don't do star ratings but if I did, I always had it in my mind that negative star matches don't exist as frequently as some reviewers give them out (DUD says it all).. but that was truly a -** or more match. However, Eddie vs Booker T, Jericho vs Malenko, Benoit vs DDP vs Raven, Hart vs Hennig (though not that good compared to the past), and even Konnan vs Juvi are all good matches. It's too bad other crap on the show brings it down.

SummerSlam 93 is the event with the 3 Post Massacre.

I think it would be neat if Cena replaces the WWE title with a "throwback" world title, specifically the 1988-1988 title belt.

There was a really good Paul London / Matt Hardy match shortly before London signed. He kicked out of a Twist of Fate and did the London Calling. Matt needed to do a top rope Twist of Fate to get the win. It seemed very odd to give an unsigned wrestler such a good match.

I had read about them long ago on GameFAQs and recently found the screenshots from the VG Museum.

I just started watching wrestling at this point so I can't confirm this, but I've been under the assumption that Warlord and Bulldog were having a very low key feud during the WM7 timeframe, mostly over strength. It seemed to extend to Survivor Series 91, but I don't think they ever did much to build anything around it, just wrestled on PPV. As for Valentine, I believe he was a big player at MSG shows in the 80s. That is what I seem to recall hearing someone say when his HOF status was questioned.

Ever since Taker beat Flair it's been evident to me he's not losing at Mania... he's going to retire with the streak and it will be his legacy. I don't expect WM21 to change things. Where the hell is Billy Kidman?

Whenever I check DVDs in a MusicWorld they seem to have the same 2002/2003 stock of Divas DVDs, LEsnar, Michaels, Mysterio, and sometimes Hogan. Of course, I haven't really checked there recently.

Watching Dsic 1 of the Flair DVD again today, I found something odd (I think I wondered this before but didn't bother questioning it)... Flair vs Windham has a time limit of remaining TV Time Windham might have won had time not ran out right before the ref counted 3. Tough break, Barry! However, there seemed to be more than enough TV time left. Barry Windham had time to throw the belt down on Flair, Dusty and Tony had time to talk about the match they had just seen, and there was even a backstage interview post match! Did no one question this?

I have all available Futurama and Familt Guy boxes (no need for that Freakin' Sweet DVD) along with all presently available Seinfeld seasons and Simpsons 4-5. I might get Simpsons 3, but I have no real interest in 1 or 2... but who knows, maybe someday. I was keen on collecting King of the Hill, but apparently that sold terribly and Fox is putting no effort into the sets anymore. I hear 3 is just silver discs devoid of any effort and just episodes. I could do that with my computer.

When I was at the BCW show here last month, one of the guys backstage said "hey, those are the tights you wear with TNA, right?" and his response was "I don't even wrestle for them anymore". This was 4 weeks ago.

I like the Japanese crowd

Thanks, and to answer your question, Haas more or less used Benjamin's finisher to win (although slightly differently... he did it standing up without leaving the mat, then went for the pin)

Move theft! The seeds for Haas vs Benjamin at WMXXI are now set.

AmIAnnoying lists her as a stripper, and that was the first place I heard that mentioned. http://www.amiannoying.com/(yxhhyl45rivejc...ew.aspx?ID=5791

But would a midcarder go to Vince and to bitch about a high ranking agent, or would a guy wrestler who has clout with managment go and complain about an agent stepping over his bounds?

Virgil - Ted DiBiase

My friend in wrestling school told me about that one (from word that got to Joe Legend), but asked I not go and talk about who the other party involved in this affair is and I guess I should respect that.

During Taz vs. Mikey Whipwreck on Raw in 1997 King: "Taz is so short, he buys an ant farm for a home" Heyman: "That's pretty rich coming from a guy who is 5'10" and was on top of his territory for 76 years"

Considering they seem to have a fan cam video of the 96 MSG curtain call incident on file for whenever it's needed for a DVD what have you, I'd think they keep all of their own stuff, especially now that they use it on 24/7.
