Bruce Blank

Excellent card - two real marquee matches on top, solid middle with real potential and a couple of strong openers, how can you not like that?? Bruce / Akira XII: An international affair!

Nah he'd drop on his head FIRST and then fall on his back perfect for a pin

I'll try to explain it then. 1) The opponent is placed over the shoulder, chest down, head forward (like a running power slam like Davey Boy Smith) 2) Run forward, basically like a running power slam. 3) Again like a running power slam the guy executing the move jumps forward a bit, both feet leave the ground. 4) The opponent is shifted forward a bit, sliding off the shoulder and instead is held head down between the legs Tombstone style 5) Executor lands on his knees, victim hits the mat Tombstone style. 6) Pulls out a bottle of painkillers for the victim There you go in 6 easy steps - probably a move that's liable to really hurt the guy taking the move in real life and really much, much LESS complex that most of the moves used by the under 230 crowd but with very high impact.

A level of fantasy? huh? It's just a slightly different ring, 2 more turnbuckles, shorter ropes I don't see it as a big problem personally, focus on what's going on between the ropes and not the ropes themselves.

Wow they really do their homework don't they? Jesh I cannot believe that people who probably get paid a good deal of money can be so damn bad at their job - "No idea what his strengths were", it's someone's damn job to know.

These characters have no actual writers Have left the federation again in addition to Sly and well Rageheart/Staunton is up in the air since JJ is back as JJ so yeah about 20 actual writers or so.

Savage was doing mainly commentary and the odd match but nothing more, I think he wanted to return to full time in ring action and this was the way to bring him back with a purpose and all.

He went straight from one to the other. By that, I mean they started the Yoko program the day after SummerSlam. Why was Crush put in a program with Savage in the first place? Because Savage never visited Crush during his time in the hospital after Yokozuna injured him and he got so hurt that his "close friend" Randy Savage just didn't care about him. Or maybe it was that his "close friend" Randy Savage didn't try to stop Yokozuna from injuring him during Raw (I forget which. . . if it wasn't actually both) Which of course begged the question: Savage and Crush were friends? and the follow up: Why did Crush side with the man that injured him?? Two questions the booking team wanted you to just sorta gloss over - and hey it did produce a kick ass WM X match

Ah yes the Billy Jack Haynes Shoot as the title says Billy Jack went a'huntin' Took out his shotgun *BLAM*BLAM*BLAM*BLAM*BLAM*BLAM*BLAM* Came home with a deer and a couple of ducks It was a good shoot The End

I've always been told I smelled weird, my new shampoo must be working then since I've been downgraded to "funny" instead of "weird"

I think this refers to the Val Venis vs CM Punk mach. I'm not 100% sure, so someone please correct me if I'm wrong. But the Venis vs Punk match I think was recorded for Raw or Heat and I think it ended up not airing because Double A, HHH, and HBK ended up not liking it. I think thats it, but like I said I'm not 100% sure. I've actually seen this one on YouTube complete with commentary and all like it was aired on Heat

They need to replace it with a title that's not a belt but one of those huge ass 7 foot tall trophies that they get when they win a Japanese Tournament (G1?) and then have the 5'7'' champion lug that around from show to show

*sigh* funny how the split off thread in community is named after me when I'm not the one dragging this shit off topic. The Yellow Dog picture went straight over everyone's head, what a surprise.

And you're knocking the genius that is Bruce claiming to have the Bird-flu to get out of a match? *tisk*tisk*

You're a total genius!

Spelling it out WOULD be too obvious so I'll leave it at that picture

I enjoyed it, people got plenty of shots at the Hardcore title and I thought the blow off match was one of my best matches ever - don't whine when it didn't even affect you.

So what exactly was the Bobby Roode's New Manager search segment all about?? what happened?

hmm I guess it depends on how you define best (most entertainining etc.) I'd have to say overall the AJPW style have all other styles licked - I mean where else can you get dropped on your head continually and beaten up for like 30 minutes only to no sell it all and win with a Lariat? No one can complete with that

People have been wishing the same thing for you for years. yet no dice and frankly I have greater stamina than you do so I wouldn't hold my breath for it. A Bruce Blank / Spike Jenkins D@mnation in a Box match with a beautiful 3 month cooperative build is more likely to happen

I swear you need to adopt the music from Jesus Christ Superstar as your entrance music, just have the words changed to go with Mansonosity - it would be the single most kick ass entrance ever deviced.

Looking pretty good already - we've got 5 full matches and promises of even even more action *thumbs up* Did anyone see my suggestion to have the top post be edited to contain the card as it gets booked? just an idea

Too obvious?

Yes he was and he gave the book to Bill Watts, Watts liked Mabel so he became the King of the Ring - Thank god Vince was aquitted

LOL I totally forgot about that - man color ME embarrassed, sorry man. Alright UVX's life altering night is postponed till next week This weeks Scouting Match From Japan Ninjor "King of Ninjas" Vs The Great Scott!
