I got a different type of question. So around Halloween I bought a slightly off model Blue Demon mask. Looks great, except for the nose being covered, feels great and now I want to collect some more. Does anybody here have a recommendation for a seller of wrestling masks? I got my first one at elucha.com and like I said, don't like how the mask is slightly off.

I didn't see a thread for this, so what DVDs/Documentaries do you guys recommend? Preferably ones on Netflix. It doesn't matter what company, subject, or year. I just want to take in some history because I'm still pretty new to wrestling.

This will probably gonna sound stupid, but what is the Sharpshooter supposed to be hurting? Knees? Lower back? It just doesn't look that painful.

That Hogan clip brings up another question, how much farther can his hairline recede? It looks more like a beard on the back of his head.

Has there ever been a triple threat style title match were one guy sacrificed himself to get another guy the title and the third guy is trying to stop them? That seems like a classic Dibiase moment to me, but i don't know if it happened.

Uncle Ulty posted:There was one Triple Threat Tag Team match that involved the New Age Outlaws. They wound up facing each other after a long series of tags, and the other teams wouldn't let them tag out and tried to force them to fight each other. So one of the Outlaws laid down for the other and they won the match before the other teams could break up the pin.

I've been watching a lot of Botchamania and I love the segments where people are being interviewed about (in)famous moments that they were involved in. I've only seen two or three so far. Are there any great ones I should find?

I remember seeing a clip on botchamania with Cole and Foley commenting on a real cruddy match. Kinda like MST3K. What was the context of it?

I did the full suit too. If you have something that looks a little retro, go with it. I had a beige suede suit with a bright orange shirt. I looked classy as all hell. Also, masks don't work good with glasses.

Imagine if all the crazy poo poo Hogan said was true. A wrestler that defeated a 600lb man in front of six million screaming Hulkamaniacs, that plays bass for Metallica, and starred in one of the best movies of the decade. It sounds like a Saturday morning cartoon.

Cardboard Box posted:There's two documentaries on the history of World Class Championship Wrestling, a WWE-produced one called Triumph and Tragedy of WCCW and an unlicensed one called Heroes of World Class. Both are very good. Memphis Heat was released earlier this year, and covers Memphis Wrestling during the territory days--it was also excellent. There's also The Rise + Fall of ECW and The Rise + Fall of WCW, but the former is much, much better than the latter.

So how did Chris Jericho wind up with a moonsault and a Boston crab as finishers? Don't get me wrong, he makes the Walls of Jericho look like it can kill. I'm just wondering why he stuck with like the two most basic moves as his big finish.

That sucks that we've apparently been passed over, since while I have no real desire to attend a Raw taping or house show I'd almost certainly go to a WWE PPV. Raw is coming to the burgh in March, so I guess we'll find out the PPV status then.

Cardboard Box posted:considering the sheer volume of promotions that have existed from big national ones down to rinky-dink operations that perform in front of 15 people in a lodge, it's probably impossible to figure out who's worked for the most. Hmm, that's true. What makes a promotion legitimate? Is it the talent? The size of the audience? Show quality?
