Christ, is it time for another Buy King A Beer Thread already?

::whispers:: One of your premises is not based in fact.

Flik, I give you permission to weasel, and as a vet who's been around longer and beat TNT for the World Title, I outrank him.

Regarding a PPV match from last year... From TheBostonStrangler

Revenge is a dish best served moldy and reheated! Muahahahahahaha~!

They're in my stats... they're basically a bunch of moves off a front headlock/facelock that I patterned after Ken Chertow's Cement Job (which I preserved in its original state), and they're moves that I got to like using as a Greco-Roman heavyweight. I hope the descriptions are clear, and I did link to an anigif of the Cement Job, but if you need anything clarified I'd be more than happy to try. I like them because they're relatively low risk (okay, maybe not the Cement Mixer) and offer a good chance to put the opponent on his back. And, again, when I get home today I'll try to pick up with Window Pain and offer more in-depth comments.

Allison is in fact a lesbian - or at least, that's the theory I'm working under, since Lady Red had a lesbian lover valet that Annie later appropriated when she came back as herself. Annie has actually never beaten me. We had a lot of action over the US Title - lots of three-ways with Xero and Ash - the month or two after I got bumped, and then we get thrown together once in a while now that our paths aren't intersecting quite as readily. Annie did fuck Chris Wilson. Shh. Someone else might remember, too. And thanks for the props on the cement moves. (Y) - Taamo, official Annie Eclectic Character Historian

You're hurting my brain. Just get me a beer. (Y)

Well, yeah. That's the point, boyo. (Winking smiley included specifically for Danny, who's reading the thread at the moment.)

Ann “Ichiban” Onita vs. Insane Luchadore! - All grown up. She's just too much for IL. Edward James vs. Blanka! - I'm never right about Flik's matches. ”Deathwish” Danny Williams and Dace Night vs. Toxxic and Jimmy “The Demon” Liston! - Can't spoil Danno's return. ”The Superior One” Tom Flesher vs. Stryke! OMGZ MULTIMAN MAIN EVENTZ~! Todd Royal, “The Notorious” John Duran, and Landon "La Cucaracha" Maddix vs. Charlie “Grappler” Matthews, “Coyote” Coy West, and Alan Clark - I just think the Unnamed have it together.

Partial Comments of DOOM~! Mark Stevens Promo: - Simple and to the point. Wildchild Promo: - Wildchild is very, very angry about Flesher disrespecting the Cruiserweight Title, but gets the whole “really wants the world” side of the story. Woohoo – my blatantly obvious storytelling is being picked up by people! … but Mike Van Siclen interrupts. (Y) MVS. Fine bit of revisionist history here, and I’m always pleased to see Catch-22 mentioned while Beezel is totally ignored. I do only have one hair to split here… where MVS says “I get fed to Tom Flesher,” I really wish he’d said, “AND I BEAT HIM! And what do I get?” etc. I think people forget that the mini Mike and I worked culminated with Mike going over. But still, excellent promo, clearly establishing MVS as a heel. Toxxic vs. IL, Segment 1: - I find the idea of the Eel combing his pompadour back with a flyswatter absolutely hilarious. Actually, the whole segment was great. The Eel usage was smooth, and it was quite the juxtaposition – the Eel and Girl Scouts, as opposed to the brutality going on with the two competitors. (Full disclosure: I just like saying “juxtaposition.”) MVS vs. Edward James: - That excellent segment followed by GORO. Quite the juxtaposition. Mark Stevens Promo II: - Wow, shit just keeps piling up for GSMS, doesn’t it? I’m kind of on the fence about this promo, to be honest. I mean, it was well-written and all, but it set off my Coincidence Alarm. Still, it’s all good. Tag Team Title Match: Wild & Dangerous © vs. Unholy Trinity (Janus and Aecas): - I thought this was a fabulous match as far as the dynamic of the two teams. After all, W&D and the Trinity are both based on the time-honored tag model of (to quote Bret Hart) “a guy and his twin.” This was an extended version of a David and Goliath singles match, with the added twist of the tag partners, and I thought the Trinity did a great job with it. Also, busting out the rare move at the end was a good call, considering how dominant W&D have been. Tom Flesher vs. Ann Onita: - I was pretty happy with how this turned out. On re-reading, the “go through the announce table” thing didn’t feel like a running gag, but more like a loose end that I didn’t tie up… so that’s too bad. Not to toot my own horn, but I think I handled reinforcing Tom as a tweener very well by having him do something pretty much universally regarded as bad, but in a context where it was excusable. I also dig storyline finishes and I always enjoy working with Annie’s character. Ann “Ichiban” Onita is the climax of the whole Annie Eclectic character – I feel like she’s all grown up now, know what I mean? Very fun to work with. USJL Title Match: “Coyote” Coy West vs. Stryke: - Poor Matty Kivell, working two matches in a row. Strong, entertaining action in this one. I particularly liked the spinning toehold spot, which put Coy over strongly while still allowing Stryke the chance to go on and win the match. The belly-to-belly into the turnbuckles was also sweet, and didn’t seem as overdone as re-using the German into the buckles would be, nor as life-threatening. Countering the slingshot suplex was also very nice. Fine job, Stryke. John Duran vs. Todd Royal: - I enjoyed the Toxxic/IL spot, of course. Very entertaining, and it creates a great juxtaposition (Y) with the technical wrestling segment. The Foley angle is always a good one to steal. It was a bit anticlimactic, but that tends to be the case when you have the dickish boring match and there’s no point at which it becomes a real slugfest. Like, I was waiting for the wad to blow, and it didn’t. Still, great match and it put over the important parts of the storyline. Toxxic vs. IL Segment 2: - Nicely done with the replays. Weedwhacker AND fire extinguisher spots! VERY nice. I’m enjoying this.

Sure, you say that now...

The only viable strategy is to throw hadoukens for the entire fight and then finish him with a Yoga Fire.

The WC/MVS promo was excellent, and I'm shocked to see the Quadrinity take the tag straps. W&D have been not only dominant but really putting out the quality for an extended period of time. I don't think they got the same credit as J&R simply because there wasn't as much bashing over the head as J&R got thanks to being part of the M7 and thus worked into a bunch of promos, but W&D is an incredible tag team. I also think it's unfortunate that a lot of people have the attitude of "WC carried Johnny," because it just doesn't work that way. Okay, Frost carried me. But that's the exception, not the rule. I'll try to comment more later on.

I can't see getting worked up over this. There are sanity issues involved, in my estimation.

And don't you forget it.

Well we don't like you either. Get off my lawn and so forth!

Ha! That's adorable! By the end of my run no one was reading my matches. It's nice to be in the lower card for a bit because people have the stamina to read as far as my match. Everyone falls off by the main.

Happy birthday to the board's Vice Lesbian! Here's hoping Marney becomes unfit to fulfill her duties.

Edwin did this a while back, so it's okay. Promise. I need a philosophy paper read and evaluated. I'm trying to clean it up for prize purposes, and so if anyone is comfortable reading and commenting on the topic, the paper is on applying existential authenticity to Taoism. http://www.acsu.buffalo.edu/~tflesher/steinbergpaper.doc Deadline's April 7th.

Sadly, they won't give me $150 for that, although it'd be cool to have them bind it.

MAIN EVENT WORLD TITLE MATCH Charlie "Grappler" Matthews vs Landon "La Cucaracha" Maddix - Grappler. Landon's not quite there yet, imo. WINDOW PAIN MATCH Dace Night vs Alan Clark - DACE~! SINGLES MATCH "The Notorious" John Duran vs Todd Royal - Notorious PIG USJL TITLE MATCH CAGE MATCH "Coyote" Coy West vs Stryke - Coy. (Y) Ring rust is too much for Stryke. SINGLES MATCH "The Superior One" Tom Flesher vs Ann "Ichiban" Onita - NP TAG TEAM TITLES Wild & Dangerous vs Aecas and Janus - W&D. Just too dominant, despite Aecas and Janus being fucking tough. SINGLES MATCH Edward James vs Mike Van Siclen - Flik. (Y) HARDCORE TITLE MATCH PHILADELPHIA STREET FIGHT, THROUGH-THE-SHOW BRAWL Toxxic vs Insane Luchadore - Toxx, but IL can prove me wrong

Landon, you're SO going to pay for stealing my cutting-off-Hardy interview premise AND for calling me "Ron Flesher." That's my dad, you idiot.

... crap. I have Annie, and I already played pointless, comic hardcore against Crow. Shit, I need ideas now. Taa "is actually pleased with his booking" mo.

Ahhh, on-topic discussion.
