Wish they'd do a "This Week In Wrestling" every day at noon or something and just air things in order. The conversion on this old footage just looks so drat nice...

Is this Top 25 Rivalries thing new to the network? Renee Young is in a lab coat right now, comparing wrestlers to elements on the periodic table.

I think it's new to the network but it came out on DVD about a year ago.

Clash of the Champions 6 is on at the moment and I'm having difficulty figuring out why they would hold this in the Superdome. Obviously they were expecting a better crowd than 5300, but any other venue in town would've been cheaper and the crowd noise just dissipates in a 1/10th full stadium.

I've got my father's great big six-shooter with me 'n' if anybody in this woods wants to start somethin' just let 'em--but they DASSN'T.
Scott Keith says that booker George Scott screwed TBS over by not promoting the main event because he was afraid that giving away a house show favorite on free TV would kill business. As if running a major TV event in a suspiciously darkened arena wouldn't give him the same effect.

The most telling thing about Wrestlemania Rewind is how the backstory for the old ones always starts like 9-12 months in advance and the recent ones only start around January of that year. It says a lot, I think.

Speaking of the Nation, I was amused to see D'Lo as one of the King's slaves on the King's Court in my 94 Raw watching.

Gill was all over those early Raws!

I was out of the country during the Canadian Raws featuring the Hart Foundation and I remember making my dad tape them on VHS so I could watch them when I got back. The heel in the US face in Canada dynamic was so interesting.

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

I always wondered about those jobbers carrying around guys like Lawler and King Mabel. In kayfabe I figured it was like "Well, you can do this for the same pay as we'd give you for King Kong Bundy kicking your rear end, so."

I wasn't even expecting the Brood to be on there, but they were! :unsmith: No Ministry, though? Seems like they left out a number of factions that seemed like obvious choices.

Can we just ban the nWo from these recap things from now on? I don't know how many times I can watch the same talking heads remixed.

Disappointed that there was no Corporate Ministry on the countdown.
