    Cool. This guy somehow isn't broke and desolate yet? I mean, his complete lack of talent should have made him that years ago.

    He was frankly one of the reasons I was happy to not watch WWE around 2003-2011 or so. He was just a bland, boring asshole in a promotion full of those people. GENERIC RAGE AND ANGER. So of course, when you don't grow any stars, people like him get the belt because whatever. That makes sense.

    How these people are never sued to the ground and removed from the public for constantly lying and saying damaging things about people is beyond me. In fact, all the tabloids should go away. They add nothing to discourse and I'm sure a few people who voted in the last election think every single word in them are real.

    It's okay to enjoy sentai. It really is. Don't be afraid to enjoy completely silly stuff with colored suits and monsters and giant robots. You don't even have to buy all the playsets and toys.

    Not exactly the same thing, but I remember doing Redbox support for a few months and people were seriously confused about a Green Lantern animated movie (released right as the live-action film was just in/leaving theaters) and wondering why it was this "cartoon" instead of the movie.

    I say that for most children's movies, honestly. And anyone who then gives me the "Who cares? It's for kids!" arguments gets a shovel to the noggin.

    My go-to example will always be The Secret of Mulan, a cheap direct-to-video nothing obviously banked on the Disney adaptation.

    Ketchup steak wraps, actually. That's one of the more infamous stories from a former member of WWE creative.

    And quite honestly, if pro wrestling was less of a carny shitpile with stereotypes, hatred toward women, etc…people would be more accepting of it as an artform. But Vince dug his own grave on that one.

    A weekly streaming group have been watching old Nitros and we just got into the first Russo era. Holy hell this is unwatchable. Terrible storylines, no one looks good, and the smash-cut "Crash TV" style doesn't work with WCW's awful production value. Lots of really terrible editing and lots and lots of sound glitches.

    That kind of statement could be a joke but then not a joke and oh my god it spins around.

    Vince McMahon's ultimate failure has been his endless, foolish attempts to try and be anything but wrestling. It's not "sports entertainment" to the people who hate your guts, it's wrestling. Stop pretending.

    This movie might be the new barometer for "Yeah, we're not going to get along." when it comes to taste in media.

    The NFL has heard your complaint and has stated…hmmm, there are no Tuesday games? CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.

    I liked Peyton's appearance on SNL, including the faux United Way ad. That was great, and the kind of attitude that I think Onion Ad Person was talking about.

    It'd be even better if Mauro worked alone.

    I would not be surprised if Hillary and Trump lookalikes show up and superkick each other in the ring, because topical humor is what WWE does(n't do) best.

    Man, I remember the brief wistfulness (as a Vikings fan) from grabbing a perfectly okay quarterback (at the time) like Freeman.

    Monday Night Football ratings continue to go down, yet WWE continues to make them an excuse for not trying at all during this part of the year. (Seriously, recent episodes of RAW have just been crazy bad.)

    You could be Mike O'Malley before GUTS and just have amazing contempt/disgust for the contestants. Or you could be Summer Sanders, who figured out quickly that boys had…feelings about her and other girls the moment they saw her.
