I'm pretty sure the Samoan Swat Team was Samu and Fatu.

Ok, I gopt my tapes today, all sealed, as expected, but really now someone at Coliseum Video must have had a really bizarre sense of humor or something when they came up with these pack in gicks. Keychains, Post Cards, ETC. make sense, but World Tour 1991 came with an ID Tag Holder. World Tour 1992 comes with a fly swatter. Crunch Classics has a textbook cover attacked to it. Invasion 1992 had a whistle, and Supertape 1992 has a letter opener / magnfine glass. I mean, it's nice to see the extra gifts, but some of these things just defy logic and reason.

That's good to hear. I did end up going for the big lot of tapes, it's being shipped UPS Ground so It'll probobly be here by the end of the week. Good lord though, look at this http://cgi.ebay.com/WWF-Lot-of-850-Factory...1QQcmdZViewItem Too bad they only managed to get their hands on the compilation tapes which aren't too special or valuable. Imagine if he had a box that big full of copies of the WWF Magazine Exclusive IYH 2 and Mind Games tapes?

I've been buying DVD regularly since '99, I haven't bought any brand new VHS tapes in years. The only thing I have left on VHS is my giant collection of wrestling, most of which will likely never be released officially on DVD, but even then I'm in the process of copying most of what I have to blank DVD-R's, due to space concerns with VHS tapes.

Smackdown womens title? But uh...Smackdown doesn't have any women wrestlers. Can Melina work? I know for a fact Stacy, Christy Hemme, and any of the other bimbos on the show. I think that Jillian chick can work, but they need to get tat fucking thing off her face first. In fact, now that I think about it, this kind of bothers me. They decide for whatever reason that nearly all of Paul Londons moveset is dangerous, and thus should be banned for safety concerns, yet they stick these women out there who don't have any clue about even the basic fundamentals of working a match out there and make them have a match. If the women like Trish and Lita who actually ARE trained to work end up with constant injuries because of the fact that they aren't very good, what happens to these women like Stacy and Christy when asked to do somethiung more complicated then kick, slap or pull hair?

I picked this up on impulse today. I hated the first with a passion, mostly due to the entirely too short and too linear story mode which I completed in less them a day. I'm glad to say that the story mode here seems longer, and it's no longer linear, whether you win or lose the match, the story continues. Gameplay is pretty much the same as before, no change there. The CPU is just as rediculously cheap though. While it may take you a full thirty seconds of pounding the A button in order to get your wrestler back on his feet even at the beginning of the match, but the CPU always seems to be able to pop back up in an instant. The AI is also all over the palce in regards to the matches. There's been times when I've been able to pin guys in under 30 seconds with a roll up. Other times, I can squash a guy and take zero offense for 10 minutes, hit my finisher three timers in a row, and they'll still manage to kick out, get one cheap reversal, hit their finisher, and pin me. Cage matches in particular are outrageously difficult, your stamina level has to be all the way up in order for you to even have enough enegery to climb over the cage, and even then 9 times out of 10, your opponent will still get up in time to knock you off. Of course, all it takes for them is a quick finisher, and they can climb the cage in half the time it takes you, but I digress, I'd rather have the CPU be a challange then a cakewalk. Overall, I'd give the game maybe an 8 out of 10. The gameplay is the best of the three console games, they just need to work on balancing the AI a little more, there's a fine line between "challanging" and "unfair", and I think this game sometime borderd a little to far towards the latter.

Any chance it'll delve into his breif foray into Dentistry?

http://cgi.ebay.com/SEALED-CASE-of-50-WWF-...oryZ309QQrdZ1QQ Wow, 50 copies of the worst WWF show of all time. This works out to about 7.75 a tape. Makes a great door prize for your annual or semi-annual Savio Vega or Mable Fan Club meetings! In all seriousness though, this is a really great deal that I'm giving serious contemplation to http://cgi.ebay.com/WWF-Lot-of-31-Factory-...1QQcmdZViewItem

WWE News on Dudleys, Wrestlemania Box Set, Angle
spman replied to UZI Suicide's topic in The WWE Folder
For god know whatever reason, WWE released 2 different versions of Wrestlemania when they re-issued them. The Legacy set was the big ass box set which had 1-13, all completely uncut and restored from their original Closed Circuit / PPV Airings, which is how these DVDs damn well better be if I'm gonna spend 300 bones on the set. Then, in 1998 they released the whole Wrestlemania set individually. The individual tapes were produced in extended play and copied to these cheap as shit plastic VHS tapes which would fall apart after two or three plays., I swear I've repaired my copy of WM 9 atleast 3 times now. Anyways, these shows for whatever reason appear to be edited version of the original Coliseum Video releases, missing some backstage skits and promos. The matches are all in tact though. -
Q*Bert, Donkey Kong, and The Egg from Burgertime

http://www.rentmydaughter.com/ Is this a joke, or for real? Is it like a rental service for Pedo's masquarding as some sort of child work program?

The Allied Powers was never meant to be a long term gimmick, it was just a placeholder for an eventual Bulldog vs Luger feud. Besides, The Smoke Gunns winning the belts back on RAW made for a much greater markout moment then two roided has-beens winning them.
-
You want hot women? Order the fuckin Spice Channel. I want mother fucking wrestling. Oh eyah, and comparing Stacy Keibler and Jacky Gayda was a joke, neither one of them are versed in even the basic fundamentals of working a match.
-
Huh? Christy Hemme was visibly lost in the ring when she wasn't doing her kicking act or botching the Twist of Fate, she was not a wrestler. Calling Stacy Keibler "competant" in the ring is a laugh, Stacy Keibler makes Jackie Gayda look like Bull Nakano. Torrie Wilson and this other chick aren't wrestlers either, and probobly never will be. Why do these bimbos still have a job again? They don't sell merchandise, they don't draw, they put the crowd to sleep. I mean, they seem to pop ratings for some reason beyond my ability to comprehend, but even that's likely just a coincidence. Oh yeah, and not only were you the only person in the room of people you were watching RAW with to recognize Torrie Wilson's entrance music, but you were also the only person on the face of the planet to do so as well.

I'd like to see Bret vs Doink and everything that followed it from Summerslam 1993 on the disc.

I need this tape. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Monday Night RAW 2-7-94 Featuring Vicne Mcmahon and Bastion Booger on commentary, including Booger eatiung some dog biscuits as a rip on RAW being pre-empted for the dog show.
-
Rob Bartlett was long gone by October. The main announce team for RAW for October 1993 would have been Vince, Lawler, and Savage. After Lawler was pulled off TV in November, I seem to rmember them shifting around a lot of guest announcers including Jim Cornette, Johnny Polo and Bastion Booger a few times. The syndicated shows were Jim Ross and Gorilla Monsoon, with occaisional fill ins from Johnny Polo.

What a load of shit this show was.Eddie vs Rey was full of blow spots, maybe **1/2 stars at best. 3 DUDs US Title, Matt vs Edge, and Batista vs JBL. Jericho vs Cena, Undertaker vs Orton, and Angle vs Eugene was maybe * to ** tops. What makes this show worse is that it wasn't really outright bad which at least make it entertaining, it was just kind of "there". My friends and I were all beginning to fall asleep by the time Undertaker and Orton came out. It was just a really really boring show overall.
-
Good lord, that would mean we'd have to see Stacy Kiebler try and wrestler again. God help us.
-
There's only two women wrestlers left, Victoria and Trish. I say just get rid of all the women.
-
Just gauging from what I saw people wearing and buying at the Smackdonw tapings I went to 2 weeks ago, Christian's shirt was seriously the #2 seller behind Batista. I'm glad I got mine at the show while they were still available.

The answer to any question about Hulk Hogan is the same....because he's Hulk Hogan dammit!
-
If you buy the 299 version, you will need to buy a memory card to save, and the HD can be bought seperately for 99.99.

Jason Statham would make a pretty bad ass Bond.
