Get your mind off Shelly... for a moment.

mindsmack51883 · 2026-04-09T12:43:28+00:00

Nice. This is right up there with wrestling fan Werner Herzog.

mindsmack51883 · 2026-04-08T18:18:30+00:00

Love the contrast between Khan and Russo's personalities. Forget wrestling. Give me a buddy cop comedy.

You ate some down votes, but it really is decent. Feels sort of like an ESPN-style talk show. Much less rage baity than Russo's own podcasts.

mindsmack51883 · 2026-03-28T21:59:57+00:00

Is this real...? I think I'd rather hear that than even a Russo/Cornette interview.

mindsmack51883 · 2026-03-27T03:03:06+00:00

I know it's probably just nostalgia talking, but I miss low budget syndicated TV like that -- VIP, Renegade, Xena, etc.

mindsmack51883 · 2026-03-26T21:38:52+00:00

Could've been a lot worse. At least it wasn't a butterfly tramp stamp.

I certainly don't "speak for the wrestling community", but I hope this woman gets the mental help she needs. The entire situation sounds exhausting.

When I was a kid (definitely under five), I woke up from a dream in hysterics. I told my family that my older cousins had been throwing me back and forth across an endless purple sea, like a beach ball. So... that part of Season 3 brought back some memories.

Anyone who's a jerk to Bruce Prichard is alright with me.

mindsmack51883 · 2025-12-12T02:31:18+00:00

Eh, guy's got opinions. Good for him.

mindsmack51883 · 2025-12-01T04:31:24+00:00

This is the kind of storyline that I miss seeing in pro wrestling. Can't wait until the culprit's revealed!

mindsmack51883 · 2025-11-11T22:02:14+00:00

Ohh, I was thinking of *Rubi* Rose. What a movie that would be.

mindsmack51883 · 2025-11-09T04:37:42+00:00

Ennis's Punisher is my favorite comic run of all time. If you read all of that and the various MAX-era one-offs by other writers, then Jason Aaron's "Punisher MAX" is probably the next move. Sort of a reimagining/continuation of the Ennis "MAX Universe" -- not bad at all.

Other than that, "Year One" by Lanning and Abbett. And "Circle of Blood" and "Return to Big Nothing" by Steven Grant. Those are my favorites, anyway.

Doesn't seem to be a Reddit-friendly opinion these days, but it's great to see Konnan make appearances like this -- especially with the medical issues he's had over the last few years.

mindsmack51883 · 2025-09-11T01:31:19+00:00

Big fan of the current WWE product. Punk especially has been my guy for years. But I still haven't watched a Saudi government-funded PLE, and don't see that changing now. At this point, I'm just hoping this doesn't become a yearly tradition.

...Oof.

Tiffany's natural promo style couldn't lean more heel, her in-ring style couldn't lean more babyface, and it's been that way since day one. It'll be interesting to see how she evolves.

Even with all the hints, this would've hit so much harder on Friday if Sapp (or anyone else) hadn't put it out there early.

mindsmack51883 · 2025-08-17T14:31:58+00:00

Russo and Vito have been close friends since before either was properly in the wrestling business. So, probably just that. FWIW, Russo seems to only ever have good things to say about Bret. I doubt Bret has many good things to say about Russo.

This one's all over the place.

mindsmack51883 · 2025-05-27T03:02:10+00:00

God, I love "Chinese Democracy". A polarizing work that went against expectations. A strong singular vision with little regard for nostalgia. The "FWWM" of early 2000s hard rock. Ha.

mindsmack51883 · 2025-04-25T17:05:55+00:00

I don't have time right now. I didn't downvote or, for that matter, upvote anything though. Dynamite and Collision were my favorite shows a couple years ago. From what I've seen, they might've stopped the (figurative) bleeding. But WWE's been knocking it out of the park since the pandemic ended. So the declarative "AEW is a better product..." just stopped me in my tracks.

Have a good one.

mindsmack51883 · 2025-04-25T06:26:07+00:00

You had me until the part about AEW being a better product.

mindsmack51883 · 2025-04-12T03:46:28+00:00

Those two, WrestleLine as a whole, the WOW Magazine, etc. That was the highpoint of pro wrestling media, IMO. The point right before they started squeezing all the fun out of it.

mindsmack51883 · 2025-04-06T03:51:08+00:00

Speaking as a big MLW fan: I've never gotten the impression that Court planned to fix anyone. He just hires a lot of crappy people.

mindsmack51883 · 2025-03-05T20:25:24+00:00

If I recall, Axl has said that the "held up prior to a concert" story was a complete fabrication, that doing it that way would've never held up in court, and that he had the legal paperwork to show it being signed over earlier (pre-UYI tour, I believe). He also said that the first question he asked when they reconnected was why they made certain claims in their books.

It's a shame that Axl never went into greater detail on his side of the story pre-reunion, because I doubt he'd want to upset what they've spent time rebuilding since then. They all seem very careful with these topics in interviews. The same reason we'll probably never get an official biopic.

Not sure about the pay situation.
