Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Volunteer821]

The Vice channel also had the WWE Rivals series. They were all pretty good but the Undertaker vs Mankind episode was fantastic. If you remember the Hell in the Cell match, then it's an episode that needs to be watched.

I listen to Corny on YouTube too, if you can stand the language, its fantastic. Corny is literally a wrestling historian.

@butchna so happy y’all gave D Taylor a chance to shine. He was always supremely talented IMO

Ecstatic when I saw the trade announced. Knew his skillset fit Eberflus’s defense perfectly…and not just as a situational pass rusher.

Lived down there on Bad street right.....side note, Michael Hayes lives in my territory that I work in, have been to his house at least a dozen times or more.

Ole PS. He was great!

WWE is pretty good right now. Cody Rhodes is the champ. He's a true-blue, bona fide baby face. It's kind of boring though, doesn't have any good heels after him. Triple H is running the show. He needs to find another Brain, someone who hates Cody so much, and throws a stable of heels at him. Like Brain did to Hogan.

Yes yes yes. You have to have good heels. Cornette does a podcast about the problems with wrestling today and that's his main gripe.

 

[SugarCC]

Ole Doc Hendrix, he is very easy to talk to. He is very knowledgeable about the business too.

Still booking to this day. He's still a main man in WWE, after all these years, and all the fall out from them.

What are people's thoughts on Mike Matthews? I know Ringo looked electric against MI. Do we think Matthews is ready? Do we think he will have much of a role?

I have been so focused on Bru and Brazzel I have not put a lot of thought into it.

Need to steal MJF from AEW. The guy was made to be a heel.

It's actually one of the negatives that came from Hollywood Hogan, Austin, and some others. They blurred the lines of face/heel. Austin was a heel, but he was so beloved, he became something else entirely. Heels are supposed to be booed out of the building; but, Austin changed all of that. It started with Hollywood, but Austin took it to whole other level. Heels as faces...as much as I LOVE!!! Austin, he spearheaded that, even if he didn't mean to.

So we throw about 8% less passes than expected and over 60% of them are play action?

Do you ever think she’s learning your responses and questions and evolving even more? Do I need to build an underground bunker and lay in the goods based on how you now doesn’t correct you that she’s not Sally? I’m skert.

 

[Weezer]

Anywhere, anytime, big boy. You don’t mind if I post pictures of you crying for mercy?

You and Enki practicing a little S&M? No judgement.

Enki be like

Absolutely, I think Flair probably was the OG, but not on the same stage as Hollywood and Austin. McMahon mainstreamed it with the feud, made it ok to love the heel and it made Austin's merchandising go thru the roof. I had several Austin shirts back in the day as did all my buddies. Man the Monday night wars were must see tv.

I firmly believe when Monday Night Raw gets switched to Netflix in January you will see more of the Attitude Era again.

Lol

 

[peaygolf]

It's okay. We accept you for who you are.

 

[WesTnVol]

Agree on number 1. Going old school with rest of mine. Yes, grew up watching Mid Atlantic Wrestling

1. Road Warriors (snack on danger, dine on death is greatest line of all time)
2. Ole and Gene Anderson ( Minnesota Wrecking Crew)
3. Ricky Steamboat and Jay Youngblood
4. Paul Jones and Baron Von Raschke
5. Von Erich brothers

Mid- South wrestling out of Memphis - it had the best
Jerry (The King) Lawler
Superstar Bill Dundee
Tojo Yamamoto
Tommy(Wildfire) Rich
Mongolian Stomper
Lance Russell was the main announcer
Those were the days

 

[DD4ME]

I wouldn’t be surprised to see LSU roll USCe, like 35-10
LSU is wounded and a wounded tiger is dangerous.
Mostly I really really dislike(SaS wouldn’t like the word I wanted to use) Beamer

I don't see it.

 

[Weezer]

Waffle House is no joke, buddy.

Apparently, we do different things at Waffle House.

 

[vol_in_ga]

No but that looks indulgent. I like the no artificial stuff. Might need to pick that up and hide it from the kids.

Goes well with Kirkland organic peanut butter on a piece of ultra soft brioche

yeah you’re more of a babyhand Rntcha

 

[Weezer]

Best modern-day wrestling manager is easily Paul Heyman.

Are you still mad because there have been Yeti sightings at your mom's house? I told you that wasn't me.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Yes yes yes. You have to have good heels. Cornette does a podcast about the problems with wrestling today and that's his main gripe.

My top 5 Heels:

The Iron Sheik
Jake the Snake Roberts
Terry Funk
Rowdy Roddy Piper
The Mongolian Stomper

(I miss the old wrestlers from the 80s/90s)
