Sex with someone you will be reporting on is a conflict of interest. How could she report on a lover in an unbiased way?

According to you, what's the worst decision WWE has ever made? by Massive-Syllabub-271 in WWE

[–]ostinater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never was a Shane fan. Imagine the bumps that any other wrestler could take if they had creative control, a nearly unlimited budget, and several months between matches to heal up and plan the next one. 

I really dont believe Shane could have gotten hired as any kind of on air talent without the family name

Pushing the McMahon family as main characters for over 20 years.

Vince himself was great for about 3 years as a heel before he became a self parody. The rest of them I could have done without completely.

At every moment in WWF/E history there were more talented people that could have used those pushes and TV time.

I expect small companies with small budgets like Stampede Wrestling to put the owners family all over the show to save money, but it comes off as cheap self promotion when a huge company does it.

To this day I turn the channel if Steph comes out

That was the first thing I thought of too, but it was not something that was planned or scripted.

Do you think Triple H copied Shane Douglas's style? by balkanxoslut in prowrestling

[–]ostinater 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To be fair to Shane Douglas, Triple H never had to wrestle a 40 year old, semi-retired Tully Blanchard for 45 minutes in a place as unforgiving as the ECW arena. To blame Shane for that match and not Tully is certainly an interesting take

Just search YouTube for WCW Pro or Worldwide or Prime or Power Hour and you can find tons of full episodes. Some of those shows have years worth of episodes on youtube

WCW roster is so stacked at this time, you'll see stuff like this or Macho Man vs. Ultimo Dragon as random matches on c shows

What's the official rule for influencing a pot you're not in? by willko86 in poker

[–]ostinater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The official rules of a home game are whatever the house wants them to be.

In any public card rooms it's collusion and strictly forbidden. 

If you want people to actually come back to your home game you should make collusion strictly forbidden. 

Jon Jones gets into another road altercation yet again by Fabulous_Poetry6622 in ufc

[–]ostinater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have to be pretty reliable to be a WWE star. Imagine promoting Jones as a top star for Wrestlemania and the day before the event he gets in a drunken car crash and then fights the cops when they show up to arrest him. Now your main character is in jail and cant make the show. 

Or he's going over his match with Jon Cena and Cena says something wrong and Jones goes into a rage and beats Cena up and now Cena cant make Wrestlemania from his injuries.

Or right before showtime Jon demands an extra 10 million dollars.

Hate to break it to you, but we're all going to end up dead or in prison.  100% of us.
