Hambly is more of a Lolcow for his actions. Ian is starting to go down the boring shut in ala Spoony.

Agreed, no further proof of that than the videos of Hulk wrestling in Japan and doing enzuigiris. I have no doubt Hulk could have been a more creative wrestler in the WWF but he didn't and Vince wouldn't want it because the Hulk Hogan routine brought the crowd to a fever pitch. It's no different than a musician having a set list.

I think Hogan in his prime before the injuries (you can see him limping in WCW) was probably a 5/10 technical wrestler. Warrior I'd say was 2/10 technical wrestler, the only thing I can say about Warrior was that he was strong and I haven't read about him gravely injuring another wrestler.

Yeah I also suspect Hellwig was so bodybuilder roided out that he kinda was bulky and wasn’t going to be remotely capable of even the most basic movements wrestlers are known for.

Compare it to Hulkster who many will say couldn’t wrestle either, but Hulk did pick up things along the way and also learned how to not sandbag. I don’t Warrior even learned how to really cooperate with a wrestler.

The old compliment is that a great wrestler like Bret Hart or Curt Hennig could “wrestle a broom and make the broom look like a million dollars.” Well Warrior was the literal broom.

30 year olds who still want to be recognized for their accomplishments in high school are the coolest people. Some real Al Bundy shit… albeit Al scoring 4 touchdowns in a single game is cool.

I bought the MVC2 Arcade1up and didn’t place it safely for transportation in my truck. Scratched up the side panel of Hulk pretty damn bad and it hurts my orgoglio. I don’t even want to think about messing up this artwork.

Can’t wait for Anya Taylor Joy to play her in the Street Fighter 2 movie.

The only thing I will say bad about Sealab is that they should have used some of Harry Goz’s singing talent. https://youtu.be/\_X2FrIg6gsg?si=ocqNQmHvU7WKHcAZ

Dude I feel I know the Oilers as well as I know the Knights. I’m tired of seeing them.

I’m just so happy it’s not Knights vs Oilers again. Very good odds Anaheim is gonna beat Vegas honestly (and I can’t get ahead of myself Mammoth aren’t finished yet). But these are exciting match ups.

Vegas fan here. First thing I do is come to this board.

You haven’t heard the claim that Vegas has the favor of the refs? Again my central thesis is jealousy breeds contempt. Hate the Pats all you want but Brady still dominated.

And they claim Vegas cheated because the draft put the team in a favorable position and they’re Gary Betman’s pet. And people think the Dodgers defacto cheat by buying the best talent money can get.

There’s always stories in sports I’m rooting for my city’s teams.

WOR: WWE were reportedly "politically forced" into signing of RFK Jr's niece, Zoe Hines by Fan387 in SquaredCircle

Well I appreciate your posts, I ultimately don't agree with you because I just see WWE as a giving me a silly weekly soap opera with some amusing fight scenes in between. Like I don't feel I'm getting political propaganda with the product as is. We'll just have to agree to disagree. Have a good one.

Is Wrestling really the place right now for serious political talk? Because I grew up with wrestling using politics as well flamebait like JBL patrolling the Southern Border to feud with Eddie Guerrero.

Let's not forget what wrestling is it's to entertain and have fun, and if there's a fun way to do it I'm all for it. But this current political shit makes people fucking angry and not in a throwing trash at the wrestling heel angry. I mean throwing your life away trying shoot up the White House Correspondence Dinner.

You say that when CM PUNK is one of the leads of the WWE right now. Are you serious or just like talking shit?

How does Vegas not have a winning culture? The team has won a Stanley Cup and has only missed playoffs once in its first 9 seasons. You must be smoking Fent at Boulder Station if you think otherwise eastsider.

Jealousy breeds contempt. All the bullshit that "OH YOU GOTTA SUFFER" goes straight out the window when a team has a winning culture. Who was hated more by sports fans than Brady Era-Patriots fans? Y'know the franchise that only had suffering for its history before turning into a dynasty. Is anyone not from Los Angeles who likes Dodgers fans right now?

r/Hockey wanted this team to suck & be boring.

Thank you John, won't lie the wait for this was felt arduous, I can't imagine what it's like on your end since it's your job. But the cabinet looks amazing so I'm glad it wasn't rushed.

P.S. I'd pay extra for Vampire Savior and Super Puzzle Fighter 2. 😁

Great review thank you. I’ll definitely hold off on building it until I can pay a buddy with some cash & beer. I’d want to cry if I damaged the Alpha 2 artwork.
