    Look I know I was supposed to do the new thread but I relayed what I wanted it to be to Dex and he handled it because he is my husbandger.

    And also in the words of this Inter Species Wrestling commentator: I AM DRUNK.

    Oh yeah Toxic Pickle if you want to see more early Daniel Bryan stuff this is a good option if you don't mind spending 30 bucks

    There's a ton more Bryan comps elsewhere as well.

    Kale, what was weirder; seeing Jagged and Shane Matthews in their natural environment as the Badd's or that somebody would book Vin Gerard as a face?

    Everyone is different. Everyone is special.

    ISW is where the Badd gimmick started. I would imagine at this point you can understand why I was shocked when I heard they were bringing it to Chikara.

    Dex ended his recording just in time to watch the Eddie Kingston vs Player Uno match and also the aftermath.

    So just me on the couch, pointing my wine glass towards the tv and saying "no...you gotta see this.." which is pretty symbolic of our relationship.

    Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!

    You forgot to mention that HAGE is what people used to chant at Genki when he started to lose his hair, which means balding I think. Then it just kind of became his thing and has spiralled from there.

    They are definitely very different on their home turf than when they travel to Chikara.

    Yeah, HAGE is "balding". He went with it and made it his thing

    And then he met one guy named Jimmy and one guy nicknamed Jimmy, and they teamed up to have legendary matches and he changed the nickname to fit with the Jimmy thing. It's one of those character developments that's just dumb enough from all angles that I absolutely love it

    Here's them vs VerserK (Takagi, Doi, and YAMATO) http://rutube.ru/video/3da622352e6ffe0bc448f92f70bde8c3/ (rutube is a Russian-language version of Youtube basically)
    And here's that Loser Disbands match http://rutube.ru/video/4bd7a33e0c9ba66037c04aa744a39cf6/

    I can see how you wouldn't know it was them though, they're impossible to recognise when they're wearing all that denim. It's eerie.

    the thread ended before I felt satisfied we had insulted charlotte's spear enough

    it's the worst move and I just don't understand it

    edit - I miss hearing paige say charlotte. I almost said the best thing about her is hearing paige say her name but that's not true. she's good, she's better than what came before and she was the right person to win first among the new women but she's the worst of the 4.

    If you can't make your spear look at least as good as Jimmy Jacobs, who weighs 100 pounds, maybe don't do it.

    i loved charlotte's spear in NXT, because it was emblematic of her entire fighting style in NXT

    she was a giant unbeatable amazon who was willing to just throw herself at you and wreck you

    in WWE though it's a comeback move, a desperation thing, and it doesn't work for me

    I think that's part of why it looks so bad now

    since it's a desperation move she can't take the time to set it up properly and so she halfway misses

    So on the Cheap Heat podcast this week they mentioned Edge as Cena's greatest foil. That got me interested in watching a bunch of his stuff. I've seen the Rumble he won, a TLC match with the Hardys and Dudleys, and a match between him and Kane for which the backstory seemed super convoluted. I really like what I've seen, but what else should I check out?

    Edge vs Foley at Mania 22. The barbed wire stuff is hokey as hell but it's still a good hardcore match, I wish I could remember exactly when the feud started but I can't. Might be worth googling to see some promos and then watch the match on the network.

    @Toxic Pickle watch Charlotte vs Natalya at NXT Takeover. Some people said it was the match of the year when it happened (not women's match, just match period) and I could definitely see that.

    Thank you sir, I will check that out tonight after work.

    Everything bad I said about Charlotte was all about that one match, in which I thought she really didn't do her share and instead just let Becky run the whole thing. She had a couple spots, but mostly holds, then that sloppy Spear at the end (after the totally stupid jacket thing) which others have alluded to her doing better before she got onto the main show. I'll be glad to see what she's capable of, and maybe it'll give me better perspective, but I don't believe it'll change what I thought of her Rumble match.

    Also in women's wrestling, I have found that I am a total mark for Asuka. I went back and watched her first match in NXT and it was beautiful, but then when she showed up at the end of the Bayley vs Carmella match I almost lost it. She has so much fucking presence, and every other woman in that ring was scared shitless of her. It was great and I can't wait to see more.
