I vividly remember praying to the gods for a Punk cash in. I couldn't believe they'd end a WrestleMania so shittily.

I don't think I've ever enjoyed a single Randy Orton Vs HHH match.

They had a really good one on the PPV where Cena was stripped of the belt after his year long reign.

If you look at the seating chart, the area behind the stage is closed to fans below the upper deck. There's no danger of a skyscraper obstructed view.

I'm hoping they don't make the same mistake as last year and use a big wide brace to hold up the tarp over the ring, I read horror stories last year of people who couldn't see beyond the god drat palm trees. I didn't pay an obscene amount of money for my seats to watch on the Titantron.

Think this thing is stable enough for someone to pull a King Kong spot and climb it? Then again is there anyone on the roster that would be willing to pull it off? Only ones that come to mind are the Shield.

Goddamn, I loved those figures. I had I think every one in the ad except for Crush and Owen Hart. I know a lot of people are fans of the old LJN figures, but I'm too young for them. Every time I scraped together five bucks I begged to go to Toys R Us to get a new one.

I don't think I've ever prompted that many posts with something I just found while searching Google Images for something else.

Found a pretty sweet MMA poster for some local thing near me. It was posted on our local rock station's FB feed:



Dude in the middle just looks like a skinnier, do-ragged Bork Lazer, but maybe that's just me.

Apparently Howard Finkel has been moonlighting in MMA under the name Nick Smiley.

O.K, was that really the same mask that would later be worn by Mike Foley as Mankind?
The way I read Foley's description of the origin of Mankind's mask was that creative pitched the idea of Undertaker wearing a phantom of the opera-style mask, but it didn't fit with his character, so it put aside and later offered to Foley.
I'm sure I've read that Foley's mask was the same one Taker wore, but it looks totally different.

I supposed it could have just been rehashed to look different.

The Mankind mask was based on a rejected concept for Undertaker's mask. It wasn't the same mask at all.

God, knowing Mania is 3 hours away but entirely out of my budget is the worst feeling.

Is it wrong if I actually want to hang out at my local comic shop Tuesday afternoon to see if one of the "nerdier" workers (Rhodes, Woods, etc) passes through before the Smackdown taping?

I would think there's closer places to New Orleans than 3 hours away for comics.
