oh man, Robert Patrick is starring in The Marine? That dude is about as bad as having Ted McGinley in your TV shows...

thanks for the refresher course Steve...last question...what exactly was the build up, then to HBK suddenly becomming the face to HHH's heel at Summerslam that same year...sounds like there was only a matter of a month or two between DX Heel HBK and Summerslam face HBK...

EDIT: nevermind

So this all happened during '02, correct? HBK wasn't wrestling any matches then at this point? He was more of a spokesperson?

so what happens to JBL after he loses at Summerslam?

I'd be scared if Jason Vorhees was walking after me...

Manaan, that's the name...yeah the underwater part is exactly what I'm talking about, just slow and tedious...oh and the trial sidequest thing goes on and on forever...

He did put over Austin in 98 (okay he wasn't YOUNG but he was the IT guy) and put over Brock in a big way at that Hell In A Cell...He'll put over Orton at Summerslam, but it would have made Orton look stonger if it happened at WM...

I feel a double switch coming on...the fans will turn on Matt because they will realize how much he really does suck in this fued (crybaby, little bitch boy, pussy) and Edge will finally get the pops he's been needing...

I'm playing through KOTOR a second time, going all darkside...I haven't played in over a month though...that damn water planet is boring as shit and takes way too long...

that one baseball movie with Freddie Prinze Jr. wasn't as horrible as it probably should have been...

didn't HBK, Booker T and Big Show all join the NWO following Hogan's departure and then all of them ended up getting kicked out left and right not too long after? Does anyone have a timeline for the WWE version of the NWO? wouldn't it have made more sense for it to just comprise of the Klik guys (HHH, Hall, Nash and HBK)? Well, perhaps not with HBK and/or HHH since they had the whole blood fued going and all...

Sad isnt it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> really it is, zyn...I really enjoyed this episode by leaps and bounds more than the past month or so of the current stuff...sometimes it makes you think 96 really wasn't THAT bad (which it wasn't)...

only Banders can get sent home by his friends after getting in a fight!

there's a pretty good Raw on WWE 24/7 right now: from Febuary 1996...HBK/Nash vs. Bulldog/Yokozuna (Yoko turns face following a beatdown from Bulldog/Owen Hart)...Sean Waltman vs. Hakushi (in 1996, the stuff these guys were doing wowed WWE crowds)...Bret Hart vs. Undertaker for the title...only 3 matches, but of course Raws were only an hour back then... god, back then they had more wrestling in just one hour than they do today in 2...

I hope it is, that guy was funny as shit!

Shoes Head couldn't spell as well as Eddie...

I suppose I'll go ahead and pick it up since the 2K5 series ended (which fucking sucks)...anybody know yet if the AI is as incredibly cheap as '04? (that's the last Madden game I had) off topic to Matt Young: hey I have a major bug going on on my MLB 2K5 and was wondering if you had the same shit happen...everytime I go to play a game and the DH rule is in effect, my pitcher always somehow winds up in the batting order...also, in non-DH games, he always ends up batting like 4th or 5th...now when I go to roster manager and look at my lineups, they are set up how I want them to be...have you had this happen to you yet?

I had actually heard that the Smurfs could be linked to Satanism...I don't know how, but I was told that several times in my youth...

I always hated Madden games because the AI gets incredibly cheap when it's late in the game (they get turnovers for TDs, my recievers suddenly forget how to catch, the defense is sacking my QB left and right, etc. etc.)...

i thought Neidhart divorced whatever Hart girl he was married to?

I'm curious from folks who go to live shows...does Holly REALLY get loud pops or is it piped in shit manufactured for pre-taped shows?

that booking almost felt like it was on the spot, didn't it?

yeah, but like I say, if anything was shocking it was the timing of it...I'm pretty certain a Goldberg/Hogan PPV match would have drawn a rather large buyrate, at least back at that point...they must have REALLY wanted ratings badly back then...

was Goldberg's first title win a shocker? I can't recall if the IWC already knew it was going to happen or not...if anything at least it was shocking that WCW pulled it out on live cable TV as opposed to PPV...
