    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    I need another face team. "Jumping" Jim Brunzell

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    I'm still in at least for the draft. After that we'll see what happens. I don't have any intentions of leaving though.

    WrestleMania Roundtable Part Five: 2005 to present

    The Judgment Day match between JBL & Cena was the one they should have had at Wrestlemania. I really enjoyed that one. As for the double main-event at Wrestlemania XXI, the timing was really screwed up. JBL/Cena was criminally short, and Batista/HHH was way too long. The booking there was just awful.

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    I'm a bit biased with my next pick as he was the first wrestler I met as a kid, and one of the few that I've met that seemed like a genuine nice guy. He was a recognizable figure from the WWF 80s boom and had success as both a face and a heel, but unfortunately his two biggest pushes seemed to just vanish into thin air as he was starting to get over. I, to this day, think he got screwed out of a tag title run in 1991. Hercules Hernandez

    Worst commissioner in sports?

    While I agree, that's nothing new with Goodell. They've been trying to stamp that out since Rozelle was the commish.

    Was WrestleMania 6 the End of the '80s Boom

    Financially, probably. But as a fan, I always viewed the end being another big dome show, that being Wrestlemania VIII. At Wrestlemania VIII you had Piper passing the torch to Bret Hart, Warrior's last Wrestlemania until XII, Hogan's retirement, Robert's last Wrestlemania until XII, Duggan's last Wrestlemania, Santana's last Wrestlemania (dark matches don't count), Flair's only Wrestlemania for ten years, Savage's last real big moment, and you have the next generation going over up and down the card (Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Tatanka, Owen Hart, Undertaker). It very much felt like an end of an era.

    Warrior's title reign

    It would have made sense to push Dibiase as a main event threat again fresh off of his victory over Jake Roberts in their feud, but for some reason they decided to waste him on Bossman instead.

    March PYBO: WrestleMania IV

    Mania III vs. Reed or Mania VI vs. Martel weren't significant? I'm not arguing, I'm asking because I hadn't started to watch at the time. Koko's most memorable moment to me was getting pummelled by Martel in a blindfold match (without Martel having his blindfold on) in the leadup to Wrestlemania VII. That pretty much says it all about his career.

    I'm going to try and continue to build my tag division with one half of one of my personal favourite tag teams. Pat Tanaka

    March PYBO: WrestleMania IV

    It was their own fault for teaming with Koko & Chico, two of the biggest Wrestlemania jobbers ever.

    Worst commissioner in sports?

    Bettman has ruined the NHL as far as I'm concerned. This isn't even close. At least Selig has done some good things, and MLB is in as good a shape as it has ever been financially.

    What ended the Late 90's Pro Wrestling Boom?

    The thing is the company managed to survive the damage of botching the love triangle storyline and the Austin heel turn. We know that from the huge buy they got for the Invasion PPV. The interest was definitely still there at that point, and that is where the blew it. It was when they blew the one storyline that fans were waiting for for over a decade that things fell apart. The hot period was over by the time the angle ended at Survivor Series. If I was to point to one single thing about it that led to the decline, it would be Austin's heel turn to join the Alliance. That one was far more damaging in the long run than the one at Wrestlemania.

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    Two guys eh? Well, I was thinking of going with another tag team with this pick if that's what you were looking at.

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    My next pick is one of the all-time great heels in wrestling. A psychotic mad man who won five world heavyweight titles and was one of the most influential wrestlers in history. Mad Dog Vachon

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    I think at some point they had to have been an active wrestler or performer somewhere (ie. no celebrity one-time guest spots). My opinion anyways.

    Korea ties it with one out left in the game. EDIT: Going to extras.

    The 2009 NFL Offseason

    The opening week games couldn't be better. Steelers/Titans will be real smash-mouthed football, Packers/Bears is the greatest rivalry in the history of the league, Brady's return/TO's Buffalo debut is too big to pass up, and I work the next morning so I can go to bed early with Chargers/Raiders being the late game. Thanksgiving is terrible. We are always stuck with the Lions, so they might as well play the Packers as anybody, but the Raiders & Broncos? Ugh.

    You're right, I'll tone it down. The US has Shane Victorino yet. Maybe you can bash Brian Roberts for awhile.

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    One of my favourite big men of the 80s, I've always thought that there was something more devastating about him than the other big guys of the time, including Andre the Giant. He could go in his prime. He had memorable moments at each of the first three Wrestlemanias, and the event below never fails to put a smile on my face. King Kong Bundy

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    I thought of maybe getting Smothers a little bit down the line, so you won't see any criticism from me. Now, it looks like I will get another pick right away.

    I sure backed the wrong horse in this one.

    The NFL OT Rule

    Forget overtime, have they gotten rid of that goddamned tuck rule yet?
