    I'd love to see some kind of CW Anderson/Ric Flair interaction, be it a one-off match in ECW or some kind of union if Anderson gets promoted to Raw. There's an easy history to mine there, what with CW having the Anderson (sort-of) connection.

     

    Simon Dean given a decent singles worker to manage. It's too late to save him as a wrestler, but given a large, powerful heel (body courtesy of the Simon System, of course) to speak for, Simon's charismatic enough to get someone over, given mic time (something he doesn't get with the Gymini). Certainly better than re-hashing Nova in ECW, especially as any new viewers would wonder how he went from fitness guru to high-flying "innovator"

     

    A real push for the Smackdown tag ranks. With Kendrick/London, Mexicools, Kash/Noble, Gymini, FBI and Scotty/Funaki they have enough teams to make a decent division. Reform the Bashams (Danny is hardly lighting up Raw, or even appearing to be exact) could help, as could pairing some of the new signings- Jindrak and Palumbo could work as a good unit.

    THey had a decent song a few years back called "100 You Should Have Done In Bed", which was quite fun, but they seemed to lose their bollocks and become a dire indie-snooze fest. I caught them supporting Ash a few years back and was very disappointed

    I always liked "The Next" Alex Shelley and actually though of that when I saw the thread title. I also liked "The Insane Luchador" Super Crazy and "The Generic Luchador" El Generico. I also, for my sins, liked "Big Bad Booty Daddy" and "Big Poppa Pump"

    Haven't seen much recent stuff, but AJ Styles vs Matt Sydal from IWA-MS Simply The Best 5 was pretty great. Hero/B-Boy from the same show is also pretty good, as was Excalibur/Super Dragon vs Steen/Generico form Cage of Death 6. Dann Maff vs Arik Cannon from CZW Retribution was also good.

    liam gallagher.

     

     

    ha ha ha. i kid, i kid.

     

    I always thought Noel wrote the lyrics.

     

    Liam's written a few Oasis songs, nothing special. The dire "Little James" is a Liam creation. I quote:

    "You live for your toys, even though they make noise

    Have you ever played with plastercine

    Or even tried a trampline

    Thank you for your smile

    You make it all worthwhile to us"

     

    As for underrated songwriters, Ishmael Lewis, Jonah Matranga, James McColl and Johns Flansburgh/Linnell

    Jericho/Eddy from Fall Brawl 97 is a forgotten opener, the expected great match between the two which got the crowd fired up and it didn't matter that it was the best match on the card because most of the other matches were decent-good (FoF/Wrath and Mortis, Ultimo/Wright, Jarrett/Malenko)

     

    Also Survivor Series 96 has Jannetty/Hakushi/Horowitz/Holly vs Candido/Spicolli/Pritchard/123 Kid which was pretty awesome. Quick action, Jannetty NAILING Skip with a top rope powerbomb and the incredible scene of Barry Horowitz being a super-over face. Great stuff

     

    EDIT: Talking of great SurSeries openers, Powers Of Pain team vs Demolition team from the 2nd one is also great. Near 45 minutes of action featuring the Conquistadors surviving till the end, some great Tully heel work (his sneaky tag to Nikolai when he realises Barbarian has just tagged in is hilarious) and the double turn ending. A lengthy, but fun opener

    The sheer awesomeness of Innerspace deserves a mention for how cool Dennis Quaid is throughout. Any man who utters the line "The Tuck Pendleton machine: zero defects" while looking in a mirror deserves your respect. Plus the awesome scene where Vernon Wells gets killed by Martin Short's stomach acid, following which Tuck inform him "Congratulations, Jack. You just digested the bad guy."

     

    Drago killing Apollo in Rocky VI. As much as I loved Creed, there's something satisfying about seeing him get beaten to death after his cocky, OTT entrance. "If he dies, he dies".

     

    Phoebe Cates pool scene in Fast Times At Ridgemont High is great for obvious reasons, plus Judge Reinhold's "Doesn't anyone knock anymore" after being caught wanking

     

    and kudos to Wild Pegasus- Over The Top is the most manly film ever made

    "Lay It Down" by the Cowboy Junkies

    how is this? i've loved everything i've heard by them, but i haven't had the gumption to pick up anything outside of 'open' and 'the trinity session'.

     

    It's the first album of theirs I've bought, so I don't know how it compares to their other stuff, but I really like it. Took me a few listens to get into, but it's been worth it, songs like "Angel Mine" and "Bea's Song" are terrific. First few listens it seemed a bit too background music, but given a few listens, you start to appreciate the lyrics and just how good her voice is.

     

    Talking of good voices..

    Rik Waller And His Mighty Soul Band-Innocence

     

    Found it for 50p on eBay, much better than I thought it would be (not that that's saying much). Fat Rik seems much more suited to faux-soul than ballads
