When we didn't have promos simply for the purpose of having someone be interrupted by three other guys setting up a lame tag-team match. And if a wrestler was talking on their own without being interviewed by Mean Gene it was usually the more, quiet taped clips with the background graphics that drew you in and didn't have to deal with 'WHAT??' or 'YOU DESERVE IT!' chants througout.

I can't see it tbh. They would have to wear robes and all the jazz. Looked alright in Abu Dhabi. Might as well save the trouble of digging up the catsuits and just have Nia Jax turn on Tamina, have that be the one women's match on the card and call it a day lol.

I still think of what happened in that match and what we might have had still had with Bret and it does eat at me. Especially since Bret was always one of my top favorites. But to me even though an accident like that could happen anywhere, it was mainly Bret's decision to jump to WCW that caused it. It was such a waste and dark spot of his career to me and ended up costing it.

I feel dumb for having waited so long to get on the Figuarts train with the Turtles. These figures are phenomenal. I’m buying the other three absolutely no doubt. Man, as much as I love my original Ninja Turtle figures mainly for the memories and nostalgia, these are just incredible looking-hats off to Figuarts. This is what I wanted as a kid since day one from Playmates.

The distribution has been rough. Target around here finally got Series 4 for the first time last month and only got Series 5 once last summer due Series 3 being the set that won’t go away and was extremely over produced. They even got more Series 3 this week when the one case of Series 4 sold. It would be nice if Series 6 showed up. Up until I finally saw The New Day last week I was beginning to wonder if Target even realized that Mattel actually produced more than Series 3 lol. I mean, keeping with Hasbro tradition it's not really on the packaging so I guess that's why they maybe don't understand they are now up to Series 9 of these figures lol.

Strowman vs taker Or Drew vs taker I would rather just have Undertaker be inducted in the Hall Of Fame this year but for the love of God, if the only other thing this company can actually think of for Braun is chasing around the frigging SNL Weekend Update guys, by all means give me Undertaker vs Strowman.

It really means nothing to me since I don't even go at all to WWE.com. I'd only really care to a degree I guess if they were using outdated studio pics of everyone for the graphics on the shows for the matches, breaks etc.

One thing I do know is that I really hate the whole crutch thing. I don't know who thought that was a great idea if she wasn't really injured at all. There was no need for it in order to get her over in some sort of underdog fashion. She already had the army of crowds fully behind her and a perfect path to Ronda without any of that. Her hobbling out there like an old lady when her music hits really just helps to drain all the air out of everything when she should be marching full force to the ring. I'm glad they are trying to ditch it now, but might be too little too late.

If you live around a Roses, Series 6 is popping up there for $5.99 each. Came across them today. Wouldn’t be surprised if they start hitting other discount retailers soon... I actually haven't even seen any Roses stores in my area but thanks though for the heads-up. Hopefully they will hit the Five Below, TJ Maxx and Tuesday Morning stores here near me again soon.

Imagine if Hasbro did this type of thing years ago. We could have had Bret Hart fighting Yokozuna in a life-size exact replica of the yellow and red King Of The Ring wrestling ring lol. Complete with flat top ring posts, plastic flag and even maybe a sticker for them to slip and slide on lol.

Consider yourself lucky as far as Series 4 lol. I only saw one little trace of them at Five Below with a Kevin Owens. I got there too late but prob. had little to no chance getting the Flair anyhow. He prob. disappeared as soon as they put them out. Series 6 I had no problem with at the only Kmart left in my area. Series 2 I was given a second chance with thankfully with the help on this board with the heads-up of them popping up at TJ Maxx and Marshall's-otherwise I still wouldn't have the complete set. I saw Series 5 for the first time yesterday at one of my Targets and of course Macho was long gone lol. But my other Target is finally dwindling down with the Series 3 and I have got to guess this time they will FINALLY put out Series 4 or 5 lol.

do they realize how stupid it sounds announcing "Andrade"...just "Andrade"...it literally sounds like the announcer's mic got cut off or he forgot what else to say, its terrible Can't take the chance of people having to remember and say a three part name, might lose them. Two is bad enough. lol

Good news is that if you collect peg hooks you'll never be disappointed at Walmart.

Okay so now that Becky has injured and re-injured her leg three times in a row and had the crap kicked out of her by Ronda, she should be in a wheel chair at this point going in to this Sunday lol.
