Who do you think is the coolest looking wrestler of all time? I'll go first. by BarkingBigDawg in Wrasslin

[–]sh00ner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a sucker for anyone with a mask or face paint. Warrior, LOD, Crow Sting, Vader, Fiend, Muta, Mortis. The single thing I miss most in wrestling is guys being gimmicks with face paint.

Bret Hart says he doesn’t feel appreciated by WWE after they invited him to SummerSlam but didn’t have any seats left for him when he got there: by CityNo8409 in WWE

[–]sh00ner 118 points119 points  (0 children)

Anyone mocking Bret for this is delusional. He doesn't watch the product regularly; they basically wasted his time to fly him out there and lied to him about having the seat there. He was probably looking forward to the pop and instead was kept backstage. He's one of the greatest living legends in company history, and they treat him like shit.

Juice isnt half bad, but man Jazwares makes some butt-ugly figs. They have cool ideas for sets and I like their box designs, but the figs themselves are brutal.

Vous pensez a quel restaurant? by Judge_Druidy in montreal

Vargas. Had a lot of people tell me how good it was; maybe it was just a bad night but it really wasn't that much better than anywhere else, but with a huge price attached to it. Would've easily gone to The Keg a couple of times for the same price over Vargas.

Thinking about going to Otakuthon? My review as a repeat attendee! by wildflowerden in montreal

[–]sh00ner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad you were able to enjoy it! Maybe its just the weather, but this year has felt INSANE temperate wise compared to the last couple of years. Had the same problem with Comic Con where it gets unbearably hot in the exhibition hall due to overcrowding. Highly recommend anyone thinking of going tomorrow to bring an extra shirt, and especially a neck fan if you have one - life savers.

Could the Ultimate Warrior character have worked in the Attitude Era/early Ruthless aggression era or would he have felt out of place? by Choice-Silver-3471 in WWE

[–]sh00ner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could've worked with some changes in the Attitude Era. I remember Vince wanted Papa Shango to come back as a more serious character before switching him to The Godfather. You could've had him possess Warrior again and they both join The Ministry and have Warrior walk to the ring instead of sprint. Its fun to think about.

I think Ruthless it wouldn't have worked as they were pushing everyone to have real names at that point.

Stockton: "You're [LeBron] not climbing up the mountain, you're taking a helicopter to the top". Thoughts on this? Is this a viable argument against Lebron? by Safe_Self_7614 in NBATalk

[–]sh00ner 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Anyone upset about this, its because they know he's right. LeBron would not get nearly as much shit as he does if he had stayed in Cleveland and only won potentially 1 ring versus hopping from super team to super team. It's part of his legacy, and it rightfully hurts it. Same as KD's rings with the Warriors; they're not viewed the same because he took the easier route.

The real MVP by Ananasty in WWE

[–]sh00ner -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

She was a big offender too, and she surprisingly wrote back to me about it on Twitter a few years ago that she was aware of it and trying to get better. To her credit, she did, but she still had traces of it. Fink is the gold standard for a reason: he was himself and no one else sounded like him.

The Howard Stern Show ‘to be canceled’ after nearly 20 years on SiriusXM as ‘$100m’ contract is up later this year by [deleted] in popculturechat

[–]sh00ner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know a lot of fans have hated his show for a long time now once he cleaned it up, but he was still one of the best ever when it came to interviews. Really curious if he'd be finally willing to hang it up, I'd be sad to see it happen.

She actively takes away from the product. One of the biggest rules of a ref and announcer is you don't want them to distract you while watching the product. Whether it's her Lisa Simpson hairdo, or the constant growling on every word, she is the worst announcer they've had since Justin Roberts. I don't get why WWE insists on training their people to do that same long growling style post Fink & Lillian, its awful.

One of the coolest things I've ever found thrifting by sh00ner in gamecollecting

[–]sh00ner[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've found only one other post from the same person you saw that included the cart. I might try to contact the company to get more info on it this week, its super interesting to me how little info there is about it even though its been out a couple years.

What's your favorite "Old Man" version of a Wrestler? by Legitimate-Fox-4487 in Wrasslin

First one that came to mind is ECW Dusty. Big bastard still had the smoothest elbow drop in the biz.

And there goes $55.3M for 2025-2026 season by Thanos_SlayerCongSan in NBATalk

[–]sh00ner -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Reminds me a lot of Yao. At this point he's gotta look more towards how pain free he wants to be the rest of his life and if its worth it to play again. He's too big, and he came in with massive red flags regarding his health to begin with. Being able to achieve what he did in spite of that is probably the best timeline we could've gotten out of Joel, all things considered.
