DJackson10 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Happy 8th yrs to one of the best factions/stables of the last decade and still going strong The Bullet Club which was formed by prince Devitt with Badluck Fale and joined by Machine Gun Karl Anderson. BC4L!!!!! In honor of Bullet Club day the history of Bullet Club presented to you by Kevin Kelly Also Pro Wrestling Tee's is doing 25% off Bullet Club Merch including bringing back some former member Tee's. I ordered a Gaiter similar to what AJ Styles wore at Wrestle Kingdom vs Nakamura and a White King Switch shirt already. Might add Hangman in there too.

Tom Servo Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Britt Baker was asked out by a 7 year old yesterday. The kid has no job, no money, and no car and he wants a date with one of the most beautiful women in wrestling. This kid has no fear and solid brass stones.

It didn't paint him in any worse light than reality I don't think. Maybe a little too much suggestion of spouse abuse, but who knows what went on there? I appreciated Nash and Roberts being honest about what all they were ingesting at the time. Also funny when they called Savage a cheap skate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Courtjester Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I have seen all three of them and they have all been pretty good. I thought the MM one was really depressing throughout. I think Hogan has a selective memory on a lot of things. I forgot all about Lex Luger and being paralyzed. When he came on the screen, i was like "Whoah!!!" All that from just popping his neck. My teenage daughter does that all the time and it drives my wife crazy. My wife had my daughter come down and had me rewind the Luger portion and make it a "teachable moment."

UOFI_316 Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Watched the Macho Man bio over lunch today. Glad they actually mentioned he was from Downers Grove (my hometown) I have seen other things were they start out with him in Florida on the beach. I went to the same high school (he may have been in school at the same time as some of my cousins), and he was inducted into our sports hall of fame while I was going there (97 or 98ish). Lenny showed up to accept for him, and his plaque was above my buddies locker. He was like a .600 career hitter in baseball, drafted by the Cards... I need to go and re-listen to his "rap" album again, pretty sure I have it downloaded somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Servo Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 I watched Brian Pillman’s Dark Side of the Ring last night. Who knew he was the Shawn Kemp of wrestling by fathering 5 kids to at least 3 different women. It’s obvious his widow has been through hell because she looked rough last night. She’s done a lot of things wrong, and it probably still weighs on her to this day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always found that direct post-Austin/Rock period of WWE (like 03-05) really weird as they were finding their identity and direction after those guys left. Had weird storylines like that. The bigger WCW guys starting to ascend. Weird guys in the company like Mordecai or Heidenreich actually raping Michael Cole. It was all over the place until they strapped the rocket onto Cena. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also had the Ring Collapse angle and the Big show vs JBL in a Barbed wire Cage match where JBL I believe went through the ring and came out from under the ring and they declared him winner of the match. JBL also had the Cabinet on Smackdown and became longest reigning Smackdown Champion during this Era. Cena had his thuganomics gimmick (Which many fans still think is the best of his today). We also had Flair vs Taker during this time at Mania. Also Flair was "retired" by HBK at Mania and we had the Hair vs Hair match between Vince and Donald a match between Bobby Lashley and Umaga (Roman's Uncle Eddie and very underrated). This match was around the time I got back into WWE again. One of the first episodes I watched was the Divas match between Candice Michele and Beth Phoenix where Beth jumped on the rope and Candice fell and legit broke her Collar bone. MVP was the big thing going on in Smackdown at the time. Goldberg's initial WWE run was around here the era too. Then we won't talk much about because it was embarrassing after the first 2 PPVs Brough back ECW do to the Success of One Night Stand. The 2nd one the WWE title involving RVD Vs Cena is one of my favorite Fan matches other then MITB Punk vs Cena. RVD won his first heavyweight title in his career that night (Never was ECW Champion under Heyman's promotion) and the crowd Brough me back to when my friends dad took us to the 2300 Arena in South Philly for the ECW shows. Lets also not forget GM Eric Bischoff's run and the whole Lita carry Kane's Baby and having a miscarriage because of Gene Snitchy. They settled their differences in a Chain Match on Cyber Tuesday in Puerto Rica when fans "voted" for the match they wanted to see the wrestlers compete in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
