    He actually calls Foley a human stuntman. Ah! I see, he's a human stuntman as opposed to...?

    Perfect timing to put the belt on a guy

    Luger definitely shouldn't have won the belt at GAB '88. It was too early and the bs finish just made him look like an even more credible challenger and they drew really well with that feud over the months that followed. Luger probably should have won at Starrcade '88 however (even though they would have screwed up his title reign).

    Nobody asked but I believe the Fuji-Heenan match was set up on the previous house show when the Orient Express wrestled Haku & the Barbarian.

    I think Edge wrote his.

    Foley does talk about it in his first book so it certainly appears to be true. I believe it. I don't, however, believe that Mero was so bad that even Foley's wife could see how bad a program with him would be, as Foley also claims in his book.

    Out of Sight

    Surprisingly great movie. They changed some minor things but it's probably the best adaptation of a Elmore book.

    You can't say that on TV!

    Ok, that was some funny shit! The montage of Steiner's strange noises should be done with Lex Luger. I love when Luger makes a noise for everything: every punch he throws and every move he sells. Genius.

    It was not his only clean job in the promotion. It wasn't even his first. He was pinned cleanly by Snuka a few times in their feud in the 80's (I have at least two on tape) and he was pinned cleanly by Mr. Perfect several times in late 1990/early 1991. In later years I believe he was pinned cleanly by Mr. America at Judgment Day 2003, too.

    WWE 24/7

    I was there live, so I saw it. Well, at the 10/6/97 RAW (the night after Brian Pillman's death), they taped Shotgun Saturday Night beforehand. There was a match, with "Rockabilly" (with Honky Tonk) vs. some jobber. Before the match could start, Road Dogg walks out with a mic and berates Billy for dressing like an idiot and having Honky as his manager. Eventually Billy KO's Honky with the guitar and leaves with Road Dogg. From then on they were a team. "I smell money!"

    Indiana Jones 4 release date announced!

    Indiana Jones 4 and new Narnia film in the same month??? Holy shee-it!
  14. While this is mostly true, I believe Backlund did work for the AWA. He may have worked for the NWA as well. He was pretty much a flop and was out of wrestling before you knew it.

    Super Bowl XLI

    That was the commercial that came the closest to not sucking. My husband liked the godaddy.com commercial but I'm guessing that's because it had women with big tits stuffed into tight shirts.

    Super Bowl XLI

    The game was decent. It was great to see Manning, Dungy, Harrison, and the rest of the Colts win. Grossman choked. Nantz and Sims are the shits. Prince was great. And my SuperBowl Sunday cooking was great. The commercials sucked. Big time suckage. I don't remember even seeing a movie commercial of interest.
  17. I think it had more to do with Bruno wanting a cut-back schedule than with the WWWF wanting a new top babyface.

    Predict-a-card: Wrestlemania 23

    I did at the time. The only reason Orton should have won (in my opinion) is to set up for a really big rematch where Hogan won. And, at the time, I thought they would have something better for Hogan at WM.

    Predict-a-card: Wrestlemania 23

    Looking back, maybe Orton should have defeated Hogan because of his knee injury at this last SummerSlam. That way they could have Hogan-Orton II at Wrestlemania with Hogan getting his revenge after six months of build-up. That's certainly more interesting than the alternative with Hogan.

    Admit It...

    I really got into wrestling big-time in late 1985/early 1986. My favorites from that time period were: Randy Savage (my favorite wrestler from 1985-1994) Ricky Steamboat Jake Roberts The Bulldogs The Hart Foundation Hulk Hogan Bobby Heenan

    That looked really bad. Not as bad as the angle itself!

    Greatest Royal Rumble Matches

    My favorites: 1989, 1992, 2001. Least favorite: 1999. I'm not very fond of 1991 but I like the undercard a lot.

    Greatest Royal Rumble Matches

    What is it with Savage and Royal Rumbles? He ALWAYS does horribly. In 1992 he made the Final 4 but got maybe 3 offensive moves in during his entire time in the ring. He was the last man eliminated in the 1993 Rumble so he hardly ALWAYS does horribly (Granted he was the 30th man in but still...)

    2007 NFL Playoffs

    I'm late posting on this thread but WHAT A FUCKIN' GAME! I almost left the bar when the Patriots were up 21-3. I thought that I would have to skip the SuperBowl this year. Thankfully my husband stopped me and I saw the remaining 2+ quarters. WOW. What an emotional rollercoaster of a game! Peyton played one Hell of a game and the Colts D were poor at times but came through in some key moments. YAY! Brady lost the game for them on that last drive! YAY!
