Well let's clear up a few laughable myths, first. #1: ECW introduced America to Lucha. Bullshit. Eric Bischoff did. When World's Collide PPV predates the Luchas and Cruiserweights making $15 per night in some shithole Bingo Hall in Philly. Likewise they were already doing dark matches in WCW...

Let me take you on a quick journey through time. 1985-1992: The WWF is white hot with 20 million fans tuning in, selling out 20,000+ seat arenas nightly(sometimes TWO large arenas each night!) and doing great PPV numbers. They were huge, about three times bigger than they currently are...

Back in the early days of IWC-dom the WCW was the great Satan, WWF was God and ECW was Wrestling Jesus. Vince Russo used to have his nuts washed online nonstop..... Until he dared to leave the WWF for the WCW. He has been Satan 2.0 ever since. The irony is Russo is the one who brought in the...

I guess this is where I piss off the Internet. Here's the problem: TNA OVERvalued AJ Styles. For over a decade TNA crammed Styles down their fanbases throats as their Franchise Guy. It failed horribly. Contrary to their hopes that some vanilla indy midget in $9.98 Walmart bicycle shorts with his...

1.5/10 One of if not THE most overrated Match in history. It wasn't very good then and only gets the press it does now because it had Vince's boytoy in it so the WWE hypes the ever loving shit out of it every chance they get.

Yeah i've been sick of Jim Ross for decades now. I am glad he is exposing himself to the World via the internet. Where I disagree is the praised heaped on his career, a career spanning decades of either putting companies out of business or getting fired from them before he can help destroy...

Creative? Where and when? When he took over a golden setup, 2.5 million fans and a fresh young roster and destroyed it by booking a Son of Anarchy knockoff as dominate and Dixies pets at the top of the card? Creative and Pritchard together make an oxymoron. They are in the shape they are in...

That reads like a recipe for rapid failure. I don't even really know WERE to begin. I guess take it from the top.... 1: Shane will never own TNA. Period, it isn't going to happen. 2: Jim Ross. The WWE's spin doctoring of their #1 asskisser continues to work, I see. Jim Ross is the PERFECT...

It was all talk from the start. McMahon had no intentions of keeping WCW as a product and couldn't even if he wanted to. His TV deal with Viacom prevented him from having a wrestling product on any networks not associated with them and at the time their networks were UPN, TNN, CMT and MTV. TNN...

Not quite. Eric Bischoffs money men who were to be majority owners were Brian Bedol and business partner Stephen Greenberg. These gentlemen were worth several hundred million dollars and big time players. Men who offered and had a deal to purchase WCW for $60 million dollars. Fusient backed...

Ahhhhh yes, Black Monday.... I remember it well. Sadly I remember it virtually EVERY Monday night when lackluster Raw after lackluster Raw goes off, week after week. That was not a good day, at all. There's been one time in my life where I literally vomited and that was on that Night when I...

TNA definitely DOESN'T need an Attitude Era. What they NEED is to brainstorm and figure out what the next era of wrestling should be and do it before they again miss the boat or before the WWE does it. Trying to recapture a slightly overrated 3 years of wrestling history won't turn them around...

It'll never happen for the majority of them but who *I* wish TNA would future endeavor(and in many cases whom they SHOULD if they ever wanna even sniff being as big as WWE)..... AJ Styles- Yeah I said it, I said X-Division Jesus should be future endeavored. Look, this is a guy who bitches and...

There's alot of speculation going on in this thread as well as it appears some folks making things up as they go. Hopefully I can help clear up a few things, several of which were covered in UW's lawsuit against the WWF. Summerslam 1991- It's already been said but bares repeating. Warrior...

I'll give it a shot, now keep in mind i'm going off of memory so some of my dates may slightly be off. The nWo was something that had it not been diluted could have continued into 1999 as a massive success instead of losing it's bluster by late 1998. Let's go back to 1996. The NWO by Souled...

Ugh, where to start with this. Alright, let's start with the bad contracts. That started with Jim Herd when Ted Turner bought WCW. Here's a dozen or so contract numbers that have been mentioned from various sources through the years as an example: Ric Flair- $875,000/yr Sting- $750,000/yr...

The WWF and WCW. Back when Hogan was brought on as the face of the WWF they were a regional promotion and small in comparison to promotions such as the AWA who had the benefit of little competition in the west and dominance of the midwest as well as Crockett Promotions who was the dominant...

I agree pretty much. They need to use their roster alot better and use the established names better. The problem is how to do it. Really I see two options. Option A: If you want as many as possible used you've gotta shorten matches, build some stables and alliances, pair up Knockouts with...

25 years of experience in the iron game doing both powerlifting and bodybuilding. Trained under and mentored by some of the best minds around. Don't run your mouth about people you don't know. So basically what you are trying to claim here is a bigger chest than Arnold's world class...

Is it that time of year already? I'll be damned, it sure is. The annual "Bruno hits the interview circuit to complain about the HoF and pro wrestling." My thoughts? I honestly wish Bruno would just go away. Vince to his credit has had an open invitation for Bruno to take his spot in the HoF...
