My Amazon package arrived. The figures don't come with stands anymore? Lame.

[quote name='nasum']So if I drop cable, where can I ethically watch this stuff that is current?[/QUOTE]Hulu & the WWE's official YouTube page. You'll only get clips of Raw, but Smackdown & Superstars are available in their entirety. Don't know about TNA. I dropped cable and I've hardly watched anything WWE related since that wasn't on DVD or something involving Zack Ryder.
 
If by ethically you mean a site that's endorsed by the organizations then you can watch SD on Hulu and Impact on Spike's site. I'm not sure about Raw but I doubt that it's officially streamed.
 
Just found out Chyna's in a new sex tape; one she was actually willing to do. Not sure what to make of it. I was wondering what she was up to recently, funny enough, and found out she was doing some TNA (no pun intended) as well.

That picture is filled with so much epicocity.
 
Raw, NXT, and Smackdown get uploaded to Youtube the day after they air (SD is the exception, being uploaded around noon Fridays), although they're hardly "sponsored" or anything like that.
 
There is a trailer online for Chynas new "film" its rather.... gross. Lost a round of Kings Cup last night so i was stuck watching it. Somethings you can't unsee
 
Manabu Nakanishi Update: For those who may still be unaware? Manabu Nakanishi [44] suffered a neck injury following a German Suplex by Wataru Inoue in the main event of the 6/4 show. The referee soon after checking on Nakanishi stopped the match and then he was after taken backstage by the NJPW talent and officials and then taken to the local hospital in the area. Nakanishi mentioned that his arms/hands were numb at the time. It can been noted that Nakanishi is able to breath normally and also move his hands. For now it is believed that he had suffered the effects of a severe concussion. More tests are going to be performed soon to make sure there is no extensive damage to his neck.

Some of you may remember him as Kurasawa is WCW for a bit. If that's all you remember, you really need to type his name into you tube.

Eh, I've seen worse.
 
I'm pumped for the WCW Nitro set on Tuesday. I still contend that the show was overly dominated by the nWo and Sting clearing the ring with his bat to end 99% of the episodes but this way I can cut through a great deal of the fluff and see some great matches that I most likely didn't catch the first time around.

My biggest gripe (and this might be invalid depending on how accurate the summary I read was) is a lack of Raven. Then again, with his attempt to go to war against VKM, I suppose his deletion was to be expected.

Shit, that's Tuesday? Gotta find some extra dough, then.
 
The Monday Night Wars was much pretty much as follows,

1995:
Nitro - Hulk Hogan & friends
RAW - Terrible

1996:
Nitro - Insanely good undercard matches, main event scene that made no sense
RAW - Outclassed but decent undercard, horridly boring main event scene

1997:
Nitro - More insanely good undercard matches, nWo jobbing out everyone
RAW - Good overall cards, especially with Austin, Mankind, Taker, DX, Hart Foundation, etc. being the focus

1998:
Nitro - Nothing makes sense at all from top to bottom, no big matches have good finishes
RAW - What doesn't involve the bright spots of 1997 is even worse than WCW

1999:
Mess across the board. RAWs are regularly advertised as "Stone Cold will appear" and nothing more. Nitro no longer has the matches it became known for and the main event scene is practically non-existent.
 
There was a Craig Pittman / Kurosawa match from an early Nitro that I loved for some reason.

Only angle I think Kurosawa was involved in was when he "broke Hawk's arm."

I remember that angle. I also remember it kind of fizzling out.

Christian was the guest referee in the title match of Sheamus vs Orton. Christian refused to count to 3 when Sheamus hit a double finisher and then Orton won a minute later. While celebrating Christian took the title and nailed Orton with it and the show closed.
 
[quote name='mykevermin']Manabu Nakanishi was in WCW? I had no idea.

I hope he's able to recover quickly.[/QUOTE]

Yes he was.. this also means I've seen both Nakanishi and Yuji Nagata wrestle in person... before anyone really cared about them, but I'll take it. They were in WCW about year apart so it was 2 different house shows, but I've always liked that I can claim that. :)
 
by ethical I mainly meant not going to a torrent or something.

Really the only reason I still have cable right now is for the NHL Finals. After that I'm done.
 
The fact that the NHL and NBA finals are still going on is mindblowing to me. No wondering the NFL wants to extend their season when the other 2 winter sports are playing into summer.
 
Totally going against the cheapass thing, but does anyone know how long the delay is between Raw airing and it being put on PSN?

I rarely, if ever, actually turn my computer on, so I'd gladly pay like $2 to watch Raw the next day on my TV. You know, provided people here don't shit all over it. Raw, I mean, not my TV.

Don't shit on my TV.
 
last week's RAW segment breakdown:

Kofi Kingston vs. Dolph Ziggler lost 44,000 viewers from the opener while the segment with Alberto Del Rio talking about Big Show gained 41,000 back. Kelly Kelly & Eve Torres vs. The Bella Twins then gained 23,000 viewers.

Michael Cole and Alex Riley's segment, which led to The Miz and Riley brawling, gained 315,000 viewers. This is lower than usual for a top of the hour segment, bringing the rating to a 3.20. Rey Mysterio vs. CM Punk lost 213,000 viewers, which is actually better than usual for that time slot.

Kharma's speech gained 210,000 viewers, which is higher than usual for that time slot. Evan Bourne and Jack Swagger's rematch lost 53,000 viewers, which actually isn't bad for that time slot, considering the time of the segment and the two Superstars involved. The main event of R-Truth vs. John Cena gained 615,000 viewers, giving the show a 3.47 overrun rating.

[quote name='Survivalism']I've done worse.[/QUOTE]

I'm a hetero dude with no real hang ups about porn and honestly, there have been times when I've seen a video and been pretty jealous of some of the guys who get paid (albeit very little compared to the girls) to fuck some variably attractive women.

Glancing through some previews, I am not jealous of those gentlemen. I'm more in awe of their discipline.

I agree and I don't agree, I mean as attractive as a woman may be, it kind of takes me out of things a bit when I've seen twelve guys up her ass before I got there.

Still, if someone offered me a dollar to bang Jenni Lee, I'm probably not going to need a lot of convincing.

He said as if there was ever any chance of that happening.
 
Pretty sure Austin just said Vince was wearing a bullshit suit.

Vince decked him so hard his belt's still spinning.
 
One time some friends of mine were having an argument, and had a point I wanted to make so I put on some KISS and stormed into the room. Shut them right up.
 
I predict either Truth pins Riley or Cena pins Miz, and I am pretty sure everyone here knows its gonna be Cena pins Miz.
 
Gotta admit though, that was one of the better openers of the last couple months. You can have Chyna AND the chicken lady for all I care...

Also, helluva hockey game on Vs. Right now
 
Every time I see someone in the crowd on their phone, I wish I could Ghost Dad through the TV and strangle them.

I'm so offended by the teaming of Kelly Kelly and Beth Phoenix that I can't even accurately describe how offended I am by the teaming of Kelly Kelly and Beth Phoenix.

At least it gets Beth Phoenix on TV. and pairs Kelly X2 up with someone who can actually work.

Why? They've realized that they spent money to go to Raw and they're calling someone to come rescue them from their horrible mistake.
