I assume everyone else is spending their evening in the same manner as I... researching PBN's with good trust flow, DA, and PR to be able to pass link juice to money sites in order to increase SERP ranking. AMIRITE?
My biggest black Friday tradition used to be watching the Nebraska-Colorado game. Colorado has since been replaced with Iowa State and that makes me sad.
I like watching Lockup on MSNBC, It's nice to see people who have worse weekends than me. I might not have much to do, but at no one has thrown feces on me! At least not yet.
You're kinda right. The record books show it was invented by the Soviet gov't since it was done on their time and with their resources. Never thought anyone would refer to the U.S.S.R. as manna from heaven but whatever floats thy boat.

Anybody else think the Punk interview was overblown? Yeah it was good, but it wasn't as salacious as people made it out to be. I knew they were treating him like shit back in January.
Well, it won't exactly change your opinion on how WWE operates, that's for sure. Hasn't everyone known that they run like a semi-organised fraternity for eons now?
Exactly. I read on a daily basis how things are run, and I have read ad nauseum on Punk and his personality. I'm sure there's nothing truly groundbreaking there.
I can't imagine there's much there that's worth wasting 2 hours over that's not already in the written recap. Seemed like a great interview, but Punk's still a douche.
I will say though, how they ignored Punk's terrible injuries and illnesses while all the time promoting their "wellness" policy is pretty unbelievable. Anyone in their right mind would have given him a good six months off, paid, in 2013. Makes me wonder how banged up Bryan really is.
It wasn't even a gimmick. They just said "he's Randy Orton, THE VIPER!" and it meant nothing. He writhed around on the ground and acted like a snake for a bit and that was it. WWE tries with all their might to make him a megastar and they can't because he's a bum.
What did anybody ever see in Curtis Axel, besides his bloodline? He's a regular looking guy with a regular body with an ugly appendix scar, and he's not great at anything.
With WWE doing away with ppv there is no reason for TLC to exist. With that being said, what's the greatest WWF/E December ppv? Are they all tied for last?
Yep, just like when he became the youngest world champion and became a megastar, and after every main event push he became a megastar... Honestly, why in 2009 would beating HHH make anyone a megastar?
Badass heel stands up for his morals and refuses to bow down to his superiors unreasonable demands and then beats 19 other men in an unfair title defence.
So I'm watching King of the Ring 1997 for the first time. Wow, the Austin and HBK match is such a different beast compared to what match they would have less than a year later.
Yep, Austin was supposed to wrestle Pillman, but Bret felt his knee wasn't ready to do a ten minute match with Shawn. The stip for Shawn/Bret II was going to be that if Bret couldn't beat Shawn in ten minutes he would never wrestle in the US again.
The angle they should explore is Nikki Bella trying to get in his ear and join the corporation. When he turns they become the Kanye and Kim of the WWE.
Just in case it wasn't already linked earlier, a YouTube version of the Punk interview:

The four sweetest words in the English language: Chicago-style stuffed pizza.
ReplyDeleteI assume everyone else is spending their evening in the same manner as I... researching PBN's with good trust flow, DA, and PR to be able to pass link juice to money sites in order to increase SERP ranking. AMIRITE?
ReplyDeleteMy biggest black Friday tradition used to be watching the Nebraska-Colorado game. Colorado has since been replaced with Iowa State and that makes me sad.
ReplyDeleteIf you mean reading a story about the inventor of Tetris then yeah
ReplyDeleteAnyone else working tonite? Ugh....thank god for XM Radio and sports betting...
ReplyDeletethis guy. Thankfully, it's dead and I'm just killing time.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't feel right seeing Iowa play he Huskers. At all.
ReplyDeleteBird just flew up near the window.
ReplyDeleteEdit: It flew away.
Could they not just schedule Colorado anyway? These slapped together rivalries piss me off.
ReplyDeleteChicago-style stuffed waistline.
ReplyDeleteI like watching Lockup on MSNBC, It's nice to see people who have worse weekends than me. I might not have much to do, but at no one has thrown feces on me! At least not yet.
ReplyDeleteTetris wasn't "invented". It was manna from heaven.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but I'll take it. I only get back to town once or twice a year, so I gotta make it count.
ReplyDeleteYou're not a real ape.
ReplyDeletepretty sure we both qualify
ReplyDeleteSay hi to CM Punk for us.
ReplyDeleteYou're kinda right. The record books show it was invented by the Soviet gov't since it was done on their time and with their resources. Never thought anyone would refer to the U.S.S.R. as manna from heaven but whatever floats thy boat.
ReplyDeleteBring in some new business, slacker.
ReplyDeleteSo I can't cancel WWE Network but I saw that others were able to, what's up with that?
ReplyDeleteYou can cancel, but the subscription doesn't expire until the end of the month.
ReplyDeleteend of December?
ReplyDeleteWhat are you talking about, the free month?
ReplyDeleteno, I'm on the 6 month commitment, WWF1987 said he was able to get out of it, I have no such option.
ReplyDeleteThat I don't know.
ReplyDeleteSmackdown tonight:
ReplyDeleteBattle royal for the US title
Emma vs. Nikki Bella
Ryback vs. Seth Rollins
The New Day debuts in six man action
Dolph Ziggler vs. Luke Harper for the IC title.
I did have trouble using Chrome. Had to switch to IE to find the option to cancel.
ReplyDeleteYou can cancel. Do you see the box that says something like "No committment $9.99" under your billing information? It has a box next to it to click it.
ReplyDeleteOh, so the battle Royal does happen.
ReplyDeleteActually, I've been spending time researching how to obtain rights to link to copyrighted material in order to present said material in a manner so that I may be able to acquire subscription fees from end users.
ReplyDeleteWrestling characters that shouldn't have worked but did, GO:
ReplyDeleteUmaga
Heh, Rowan does look like an upside down Sheamus.
ReplyDeleteWhoa.
ReplyDeleteEugene.
ReplyDeleteWWE knows you listened to the Punk interview.
ReplyDeleteDolph Ziggler.
ReplyDeleteAnybody else think the Punk interview was overblown? Yeah it was good, but it wasn't as salacious as people made it out to be. I knew they were treating him like shit back in January.
ReplyDeleteMankind
ReplyDeleteThe Undertaker
ReplyDeleteIs that possible? I'd be surprised.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm the only one who has/will not listen to it.
ReplyDeleteThe New Day debuts in six man action
ReplyDeleteFINALLY!
Because...?
ReplyDeleteAt a wedding reception held in the flats region of Cleveland. They are doing doubles for the Mixed drinks. Oy
ReplyDeleteThe Hurricane
ReplyDelete....still researching. Hoping to see "yes, you can".
ReplyDeletePut aside 2 hours, and listen to it, you won't regret it, it's quite the story.
ReplyDeleteNot interested.
ReplyDeleteThe Honky Tonk Man
ReplyDeleteyou working a hipster gimmick?
ReplyDeleteI just miss Punk
ReplyDeleteI'm working a "got better things to do with my time" gimmick.
ReplyDeleteIt's time to heal the nation the only way we know how... by partying!
ReplyDeleteWell, it won't exactly change your opinion on how WWE operates, that's for sure. Hasn't everyone known that they run like a semi-organised fraternity for eons now?
ReplyDeletesick burn
ReplyDeleteNice that they are remembering story lines.
ReplyDeleteWell Orton's still there, and he's just as talented and entertaining.
ReplyDeleteParanoid Bob Backlund.
ReplyDeleteKANE
ReplyDeleteSo the rejuvenation of Smackdown begins, wonder how long it'll last this time? Royal Rumble i'm guessing.
ReplyDeleteBob retired years ago.
ReplyDeleteExactly. I read on a daily basis how things are run, and I have read ad nauseum on Punk and his personality. I'm sure there's nothing truly groundbreaking there.
ReplyDeleteRandy RULES
ReplyDeleteI just can't turn away. I didn't read the spoilers so I'm hoping their is no dancing but I know better.
ReplyDeleteI'll give them the benefit of the doubt and say Mania.
ReplyDeleteI like how pretty much all they have to do is tell Michael Hayes to book based on Raw and somehow they'll still fuck it up.
ReplyDeleteYep, what with his inability to convey emotion verbally and contrived moveset. I get it.
ReplyDeleteMizdow.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be nice, it's moving to Wednesdays up here so i'll be downloading and watching the 80-85 minute version come the new year.
ReplyDeleteIt'll be a nice change of pace from those never-ending Raws.
This has pretty much been the year of the battle royals.
ReplyDeleteNo idea why so many people hate battle royals. I love them especially on a house show like this one.
ReplyDeleteViper gimmick in 09 should have made him a megastar.
ReplyDeleteI'm a fan of them.
ReplyDeleteThat's the kind of dumb fun stuff they don't do anymore. Not surprised at all that it caught on
ReplyDeleteThe Undertaker.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine there's much there that's worth wasting 2 hours over that's not already in the written recap. Seemed like a great interview, but Punk's still a douche.
ReplyDeleteI will say though, how they ignored Punk's terrible injuries and illnesses while all the time promoting their "wellness" policy is pretty unbelievable. Anyone in their right mind would have given him a good six months off, paid, in 2013. Makes me wonder how banged up Bryan really is.
ReplyDeleteRewatching Survivor Series on my iPod. Lets see if I like the show better on a second viewing
ReplyDeleteThey can be pretty boring workrate wise but yeah i like em too. Always a fun diversion.
ReplyDeleteBattle royals are awesome.
ReplyDeleteI used to watch full movies and wrestling on my iPod touch before I got my Kindle. Weird seeing 3 inch wrestlers.
ReplyDeleteLove tease eliminations.
ReplyDeleteMr. Backkund was *gold*. If only Bob weren't a devoted family man and would have done that bit sooner.
ReplyDeleteTime for the RUSEV CRUSH
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't even a gimmick. They just said "he's Randy Orton, THE VIPER!" and it meant nothing. He writhed around on the ground and acted like a snake for a bit and that was it. WWE tries with all their might to make him a megastar and they can't because he's a bum.
ReplyDeleteJust like tournaments.
ReplyDeleteThat's how I watch the shows.
ReplyDeleteI dig them. NWA/WCW did some cool ones. The GAB 89 one and the one in 1991 with El Gigante winning were fun
ReplyDeleteDat Lana! Oh hey is that Curtis Axel in there? Haven't seen him in ages.
ReplyDeleteHush.
ReplyDeleteI FEEL LIKE GOD!
ReplyDeleteI wish they'd do a bit like that Sprite commercial in the 90s, complete with Big E shouting 'I went to Cambridge!'
ReplyDeleteSome continuity with Cesaro.
ReplyDeleteIt's gotta be said, too: Cabana is a worthless interviewer. Punk could've been in there with anyone.
ReplyDeleteCesaro will be the first eliminated.
ReplyDeleteThe only one that stands out in my mind is the one from SNME in 91. I think of it as Shawn's coming out party. Well, at least to me
ReplyDeleteHe wasn't.
ReplyDeleteShush.
ReplyDeleteAs long as they don't waste any cool Kofi save spots.
ReplyDeleteJustin Gabriel gets eliminated and the announcers don't even mention his name as they describe his elimination.
ReplyDeleteMight as well give TNA a try there bud.
That Big Show is big. I don't see how anyone is going to get him out.
ReplyDeleteDepends on if he still gets a taste of Jojo.
ReplyDeleteYea its ok. Only have a touch, so no choice. Just load it with 6 hours worth of Stone Cold podcasts and wrestling and Modern Family
ReplyDeleteWhat did anybody ever see in Curtis Axel, besides his bloodline? He's a regular looking guy with a regular body with an ugly appendix scar, and he's not great at anything.
ReplyDeleteThey need him to put over indy names in their nxt debuts. That's an important role.
ReplyDeleteOr give Lucha Underground a try.
ReplyDeleteNevermind.
ReplyDeletehe was too caught up in letting everyone know that he and Punk are bff'
ReplyDeleteHe's a solid jobber.
ReplyDeleteI never saw much either, even with Paul E and his "feud" with HHH. Worth a spot on a 75 man roster?
ReplyDeleteSure, but not much else.
Starting Survivor Series with a 15 minute promo...god...
ReplyDeleteThey're easy entertainment
ReplyDeleteGood comment.
ReplyDeleteThey could have at least made that t-shirt stand look somewhat legit.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be a fun twist to take it in an unexpected direction.
ReplyDeleteHe beats HHH at 25 and he's a megastar
ReplyDeleteHe blew the spot of pulling out Rowan after too.
ReplyDeleteHe's nothing. That Curtis Axel reveal by Heyman was such a wtf moment
ReplyDeleteOne Punks comment of WM, when did it become a part timer show? I'd say it started with 28.
ReplyDeleteYep. 28 is about right.
ReplyDeleteWith WWE doing away with ppv there is no reason for TLC to exist. With that being said, what's the greatest WWF/E December ppv? Are they all tied for last?
ReplyDeleteYep, just like when he became the youngest world champion and became a megastar, and after every main event push he became a megastar... Honestly, why in 2009 would beating HHH make anyone a megastar?
ReplyDeleteNothing against Samoans but I hate the Uso entrance.
ReplyDeleteI do give them credit tho for getting over. They were getting Charlie Haas heat their first 2-3 years in the company
December To Dismember
ReplyDeleteTLC 2012.
ReplyDeleteNot the greatest, but I'm a fan of Armageddon 08 and TLC 10.
ReplyDeleteEither 2000 or 2001. Not great top to bottom cards but a good main event and a memorable moment respectively.
ReplyDeletePunk was in that!
ReplyDeleteYou mean Armageddon's vs. TLC ppv's, or best overall show?
ReplyDeleteall of them. Even IYH
ReplyDeleteIn Your House V.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the Hogpen Match, proper feuds with Diesel vs Owen,Taker finishing off Mabel and a genuinely great Bret/Bulldog main event.
The Shield's first match!
ReplyDeletewhat were the top matches in those?
ReplyDeleteThat time I watched Mania 13 in December.
ReplyDeleteI must really not be paying attention.. It took me about 10 minutes of the Battle Royal to realize Cole was there. It was a good 10 minutes.
ReplyDeleteI miss the slightly blasphemous PPV names, like Judgment Day and Armageddon.
ReplyDeleteThat and Ziggler vs. Cena were awesome.
ReplyDeleteDaniel Bryan
ReplyDeleteHmmm. Armageddon 2000, 2008, TLC 2012 were all cool
ReplyDeleteYou didn't realise that Michael Cole was there?
ReplyDeleteNot a huge fan of Ziggler/Cena, that ending was blah for me.
ReplyDeleteMizdow eliminates himself, only slightly less embarrassing than Mil Mascaras doing so at the Rumble way back when.
ReplyDeleteAnd "Fag"
ReplyDeleteMan I don't remember anything about this show even though I should
ReplyDeleteOh mizdow...
ReplyDeleteIt is the only choice, being the only PPV with December in the title.
ReplyDeleteI like that you felt the need to state that this wasn't racist lol.
ReplyDelete99 Armageddon was a surprisingly fun show, and there were tits
ReplyDeleteIt's not blasphemous, but okay.
ReplyDeleteOh wait... "The Crucifixion of Christ" was a good PPV back in the day.
Tyson Kidd getting a legit push? Can it be? A reward for shooting that embarrassing Total Divas storyline of him and his wife hating each other?
ReplyDeleteSamoans do make me sick though. Thick-skulled idiots.
ReplyDeletePut the proper guys in that Chamber match and it could have been really good
ReplyDeleteArmageddon 2007 is a bit of an underrated beauty.
ReplyDeleteWasn't that HHH vs Vince? I remember that as being awful. I will take your word cause I'm never going to watch it again
ReplyDeleteForgot about that one, good choice.
ReplyDeleteEh, it's on in the background. I wish I knew what I was doing mentally to tune him out.
ReplyDeleteHe might be getting a push due his NXT work.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of tits, show us yours.
ReplyDeletewhat was the main?
ReplyDeleteYes. It was way too long, but that was back when the HHH/Vince/Steph stuff was fresh and different
ReplyDeleteDid anyone else just LOL at Sandow?
ReplyDeleteswagger has been cutting he own hair, i see
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell is happening with Jack Swagger's hair?
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of fresh and different, show us your genitals.
ReplyDeleteI must be watching the international version because the Bellas are coming out now.
ReplyDeleteHardy vs Edge vs HHH, Wade Barrett vs Cena.
ReplyDeleteGAWD I loved that 3 man TLC match at 2012
ReplyDeleteI wish you'd get offered some wine and pills by Bill Cosby.
ReplyDeleteWhere are you watching it on?
ReplyDeleteBadass heel stands up for his morals and refuses to bow down to his superiors unreasonable demands and then beats 19 other men in an unfair title defence.
ReplyDeleteWhy are we supposed to boo him again?
So I'm watching King of the Ring 1997 for the first time. Wow, the Austin and HBK match is such a different beast compared to what match they would have less than a year later.
ReplyDeleteHe's foreign
ReplyDeleteIt's a US thing.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great one. Too bad their spinal cords were made of plaster by WrestleMania.
ReplyDeleteHe's Russian/Bulgarian/Ukrainian/whatever the fuck he is godammit boo him!
ReplyDeleteHe can't be proud of being "russian", he's in Murica.
ReplyDeleteKane's handing out merch for free again. Worst WWE salesperson since the Hebners.
ReplyDeleteYou can't be proud of being Brazilian, that's for sure.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking he looked like he had an illegal stand.
ReplyDeleteThrown together last minute too wasn't it?
ReplyDeleteWasn't it supposed to be the big HBK/Hart rematch?
if you were the pregnant lady with the word "sin" written on your belly in the wyatt promo would you tell your kid about it one day?
ReplyDeletebabyface Shawn was so out of place in 97. It's amazing how fast things changed.
ReplyDeleteYep, Austin was supposed to wrestle Pillman, but Bret felt his knee wasn't ready to do a ten minute match with Shawn. The stip for Shawn/Bret II was going to be that if Bret couldn't beat Shawn in ten minutes he would never wrestle in the US again.
ReplyDeleteHow else would you lure him into bed?
ReplyDeleteI'm ok with that Cena Footlocker commercial.
ReplyDeleteIf Cena ever turns heel, I want him to adopt the goatee/'stache look.
ReplyDeleteThat's good to know.
ReplyDeleteNice to see WWE sending their top star to yell about how wrestling is fake for the privilege of being in a foot locker advert.
ReplyDeleteYou know his babyface turn is going to be him becoming an American citizen
ReplyDeleteCan he even grow facial hair?
ReplyDeleteThat escalated..
ReplyDeleteThe box of VIPs.
ReplyDeleteVINTAGE SATAN!
ReplyDeleteThat's for Lana. Rusev just goes back to NXT and becomes a D-level Kane or something.
ReplyDeleteHe's from a different place than where you are from.
ReplyDeleteAs other have stated, Armageddon 08 or TLC 12
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're just far ahead.
ReplyDeleteThe angle they should explore is Nikki Bella trying to get in his ear and join the corporation. When he turns they become the Kanye and Kim of the WWE.
ReplyDeleteThat's how I listened today. Couldn't get the audio on Cabana's website to work.
ReplyDeleteSooooo good. Easy **** 1/2 - **** 3/4 match.
ReplyDeleteI can't think of a better debut match either
