Memento posted:This is true. While we're on the subject though, how is it that a man that seems to run on pure dianabol and rage hasn't had his heart explode out of his chest by now? Surely one day he's going to be flexing his peaks and pleasing his freaks and it won't be able to take it anymore and just burst free from his ribcage and run screaming down the road. He's a genetic freak and he's not normal.

It was probably that.

WSAENOTSOCK posted:Why do we call him surfer Sting? When I think of surfers, I don't think of a body builder with a bleached flat-top wearing a Sgt. Pepper jacket. Bleach blond hair, being from Venice Beach, California, and his promo style being punctuated more by an energy rather than a verbiage seem to lead to a light surf vibe to me.

Coaaab posted:okay everyone, how would YOU have booked the finishes? Austin over Goldberg where Goldberg spears into the timerkeeper's area or the post hard enough (gimmicked) to visibly move it. Sting over Undertaker after Undertaker is turned on by *rolls dice* Mideon and Viscera???, Sting and the Undertaker team up to murder Mideon and Viserca with their moves and pose together. DDP over the Rock with the Diamond Cutter out of nowhere after the Rock has control for the majority of the match.

MassRafTer posted:I'm sorry but you didn't watch pre Russo WCW 1999 if you think it was worthwhile overall. The summer of 1999 is one of the worst products EVER. Kevin Nash's booking made the show complete torture to watch from hours without wrestling to masturbatory runs for him and his friends to just horrible idea after horrible idea. The only watchable thing in that summer is a feud based upon two wrestlers trying to put poop on each other (The Great Poop Feud of 99) and its sequel where Dennis Rodman and the Macho Man tried to get each other in the poop (Poop Feud 2.) Well, I guess I've been sold on listening to the Monumental Podcast now.

Why the gently caress couldn't WCW have just given me Scott Norton, the shits. DJExile posted:Also hoooooooly poo poo I forgot how absolutely awful WCW was about pacing. Every single match on that card last night went at least 50% longer than it should have. I mean, I actually love it when my wrestling show I am watching makes every match feel like it's going for thirty thousand years and makes me question mortality and the nature of the sport of wrestling, oh and then some idiot in black gear puts on a rest hold. How was Hak vs. Knobbs like the best put together match until Bill DeMott showed up (after the bell which I don't know if that made it worse or better compared to the other run-ins). Remember when Dean Malenko turned on Benoit and Saturn to help the Jersey Duumvirate win the belts and no one acknowledged that that was what happened.

Nobody had anything of substance on that show aside from Benoit/Saturn vs. DDP/Kanyon, and even then the way the laid out the match they were stretching the cool moves DDP and Kanyon had to their absolute limit when they could have started hot with Benoit doing cool moves into the heat, but at least they all had cool things.

Yeah, wasn't the big thing that Bischoff did his job and got the creative accounting to work in WCW's favor in 1995.

It helps that Bischoff's AEW gimmick is "arrives, undermines Jericho in some way, leaves" so when Jericho is a heel he works as a babyface making Jericho look like the fool he is in a cameo.

the running gag of "wrestling fans want to loving watch the style of wrestling they are used to and now whatever the gently caress the wwf is doing" throughout history is very good.
