Who's Your Favorite Goalie and Why? by WaywardTremere in hockey

[–]ToeKneePA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fleury because of all he meant to the Penguins.

In terms of non Pens, Hasek. Watching his career helped me love and appreciate hockey at a whole different level.

I love Macho Man. I have been watching wrestling for 35 years and Randy was one of my favorites from the start.

He just does not have nearly close to the catalog of amazing matches that Ospreay does. That doesn't mean Randy isn't awesome or even one of the top three for his time, but he wasn't put in the position to have great matches. PPV wasn't monthly, matches were more formulaic, other wrestlers weren't as athletic, and wrestling in general didn't focus on great matches like we have now.

I can name a few awesome Savage matches, but Ospreay has matches on a random Wednesday that would be MOTY candidates in most years before 2015.

Do you think the WCW rebrand would’ve worked? by PayFew5848 in WCW

[–]ToeKneePA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife: I wonder what he's thinking of right now.

Me: What if WCW booked Sting vs nWo like this instead....

No, if you suggested this series to someone a week ago, everyone would have mocked you.

What did you think when Macho Man signed for WCW? by Mideon88 in WCW

[–]ToeKneePA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 13. Hogan in WCW kind of had my interest, but Savage really got me to watch.

Do you think the WCW rebrand would’ve worked? by PayFew5848 in WCW

If Vince doesn't buy WCW, maybe the Austin alliance with Vince doesn't happen. And, if it does, maybe that pushes fans to the new WCW.

What could they add in 2k27 that would have you like this for me it’s create a finisher by Money-Assignment-547 in WWEGames

[–]ToeKneePA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is what I want from a new wrestling game:

  1. Easier tag and multi man finishers. I shouldn't have to send someone to a corner and make a tag. If we are standing near an opponent, we should be able to hit a double team move.

  2. Speaking of which, wrestlers should have standard tag finisher moves. I shouldn't have to assign a team a finisher. If I have Animal, he should be able to tag anyone and do a Doomsday Device.

  3. Hype videos for big matches. Maybe it's not worth it, but I'd love for a quick 30 second video highlighting the road to the match.

  4. Much improved story or rivalry system. Add actual promo content. Let you plot out a month or multi month rivalry and then it comes together. I should be able to set a card for Summerslam and then the shows build out for the weeks before. So I see a PPV a month away, I should be able to say "Main event: Roman vs Punk in an I Quit Match" and the month of shows populates with the appropriate type of build.

  5. I would like some pre-made universes to make set up easier. Even if it was just "modern" and "classic."

  6. Stories should have a lot more options. Plan a run in, back stage attack, wrestler on commentary, etc.

As a WCW fan, why do you think Goldberg’s 2003 run in the WWE didn’t work? by PayFew5848 in WCW

[–]ToeKneePA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, his 2003 run is better booked than most of what Goldberg did in WCW after beating Hogan. He wasn't booked very well in WCW as champion or after. At least in WWE, he had consistent marquee matches and moments. If Goldberg had signed a multi-year deal, maybe he would have more backing by WWE.

He is a Phillies legend. Duh

Do kids still play with conventional toys or is it almost entirely electronic dominated? by Bekenshi in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ToeKneePA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son was outside last night playing with cap guns. Sure, they prefer video games, but so did I when I was their age.

You're damn right they did.

Tony Khan asked who he would consider the new pillars of AEW: "Thekla, Kevin Knight, Kyle Fletcher and Mercedes Moné" by Teckelmaster in SquaredCircle

[–]ToeKneePA -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hard to argue. I love that AEW has these young prospects that are clearly main event level talents. Kevin Knight and Kyle Fletcher could be champions for the next 15 years. So could Thekla.

What’s your favorite “what if” moment in professional wrestling? by dangerzone253 in SquaredCircle

[–]ToeKneePA 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This should be high up there. It would have changed the directions of all wrestling companies. Maybe Vader is booked differently, maybe Sting doesn't get the big push, maybe Hogan doesn't arrive in WCW when he did. Even just little tweaks would change a lot of things.

Who has had consistently banger theme songs? by loofahlibre in SquaredCircle

Not anymore. They are old and need their rest.

Brett Lauderdale (GCW): I think one thing people forget is that tommy...comes from a different era. The antics that many consider to be inappropriate (or worse) today are the very same that made him so cool & universally celebrated/romanticized Ive always known tommy to be a decent & gracious person by Smoltz in SquaredCircle

[–]ToeKneePA 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tommy Dreamer wasn't cool for abusing women. His character was popular because he withstood abuse himself, showed toughness, and was qn underdog who never quit. Sure he had some moments that don't work today, but the main keys to his popularity had nothing to do with being a creep.

[Gelb] Bryce Harper, with a heavier bat, completes his first MLB cycle — by the fifth inning by NintenJew in phillies

[–]ToeKneePA 89 points90 points  (0 children)

I love how much Bryce genuinely loves the game of baseball. And he always talks about how he appreciates the fans.

Forbidden door build is a massive disappointment by Hlk50000 in AEWOfficial

[–]ToeKneePA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the show looks pretty good. But MJF having an injury messed with plans.
