For what it's worth from someone who knows the guy slightly and has heard a LOT of stories about him, Tracy Smothers would fucking kill Bradshaw in a fight, hands-down. And knowing Tracy, he didn't make the challenge because he wanted the publicity, he made it because he really MEANT it. He just did it publicly so everyone would know about it, because of course JBL ain't gonna answer some indy worker's challenge. I for one wouldn't be surprised if a year or two from now I hear about some altercation between the two at a bar or an airport or something.

Fascinating writeup. I've sometimes wondered why a lot of manga books tend to look so much alike, and now I know. Oh, and any manga fans who get upset after reading this are fucking crybabies who'd rather stick their heads in the sand ostrich-style rather than have their precious misconceptions challenged in any way. Anyone who's ever tried to make their own comic will tell you that single-handedly inking 500 finished pages per months is not humanly possible, period.

HBK tapping out to Angle shouldn't have surprised anyone. After all, Michaels had tapped out to people before (to Benoit in the main event of Backlash for example), and Angle is the one guy who gets to beat everyone sooner or later, hell even Hogan tapped out to him. Trish beating Christy... so you guys actually expected a completely inexperienced playboy model to beat the most dominant women's champion of the current era in her first match? Yeah, I know the WWE has done some dumb shit in its time, but still that's a stretch on the biggest show of the year. To me, the biggest surprise was the JBL/Cena match as a whole. Like everyone else, I expected it to be an Attitude-era brawl with tons of run-ins & overbooking, and it turned out to be this weird little NOAH-lite match with no interference and a clean finish.

To the people who think it might've been a shoot: you guys are being complete marks. How the fuck is it possible that Punk could legitimately hit a Pepsi Plunge on an unwilling opponent and then cover him for a shoot 3-count? That's physically impossible. Plus, I doubt that the other wrestlers and ROH staff would just stand around with their thumbs up their asses and let him talk on the mic for several minutes afterwards.

Not really, about standard for anyone working the independents. How he got such a reputation is a mystery. Oh yeah, big time. But compared to other vets like Shawn Michaels and Ric Flair he's not THAT much worse off than anyone else. I hope this leads to a contract for him, cuz nobody deserves it more. Plus, with the WWE's current toned-down, less risky inring style it could be a well-deserved break for his battered self.

Corino's babyface turn really took just one promo: Justin Credible: "(ramble ramble)... and that's not just the best, that's not just the coolest, that's-" Corino: "That's just THE LAMEST FUCKING CATCHPHRASE IN ALL OF WRESTLING!"

Maybe Scoot Andrews or Jet Jaguar if we're real lucky.

His style is "generic small indy guy who isn't a high-flyer". Lots of dropkicks, uses a few top-rope moves like the 450 every now and then, sometimes uses a brainbuster for his finish. Decent charisma, mostly heelish. Said to be a real nice guy.

What was his old name? The LWO Kid or B-Dub or something like that?

Damn, SS, I wish you came around more often. Drop on by at The Pit sometime.

Any Loreena McKinnet album is good to listen to when you're falling asleep.

Street Figther had a much more complex & deeper fighting system than Mortal Kombat. In SF, which attack you chose really mattered; in MK, it basically depended on who hit the button first.

Sadly, he'd probably take that as a complement. Fred Phelps needs to be gang raped and then tossed down a well to die by starvation.

It was during the Invasion that he first announced. "Mr. Dreamer, will you please escort Mr. Lawler to the back!"

Yeah, we saw this shill before, thanks. Mind telling us who exactly "one of the greatest indy workers of our times" in the Sandman match is?

I've seen six Warrior matches that were tolerable, ever: Summerslam '88 vs. Honkeytonk Man Wrestlemania V vs. Rick Rude Wrestlemania VI vs. Hulk Hogan WWF title defense in Japan vs. Ted Dibiase Wrestlemania VII vs. Randy Savage Wrestlemania XII vs. HHH That sure as hell ain't enough to make a 2-disc DVD.

Don't feel bad, they creeped the hell out of me too. I eventually got to where I could play that part myself, but used to have to get my little brother to do it. Which level are you talking about? Tell me what part you're dying at, and I'll tell ya what you're doing wrong. For me, it was Prince of Persia: Sands of Time. I was stuck at this one ridiculously hard jump late in the game that I simply could not make, no matter how many times I tried. I became convinced that I had a buggy copy of the game that was impossible to finish (but I was wrong, I eventually made it).

Damn, how come did the time gone.

Just go to: wrestling.insidepulse.com Keith has his rant there, along with Hyatte's take on it in the Midnight News, plus various other internet nobodies offer their opinion.

And now let the Lemmiwinks jokes roll.

No.

Weird, I told 'im the exact same thing.

My feelings exactly. What the hell did I just spend the entire game building up too?! I felt like there was some massive last dungeon that the programmers meant to put in, but just ran out of time or money or something.

He hit me up too. Out of the five billion mods we got here, how come did nobody's on?
