Ed Ferrara wrote Weird Science? The show or movie? Either way, amazing.

The show. And Honey I Shrunk the Kids the show.

Yes. That doesn’t make the accent any less terrible. Especially on TV.

Incredibly nasally on some words, like it suddenly goes up in pitch on certain letters. Though more noticeable with the women for some reason. :shifty:

We talk out of the wrong parts of our mouths. Then we’ve got that annoying cadence that turns everything into a question. But when you’re a semi-trained TV professional, they teach you to change the way to speak and try and temper the weird inflections. So what you get is this annoying TV accent that is like “fake newsreader voice” for maybe a US comparison.

But then you get actors and TV personnel who just aren’t very good, and they can’t help shake the bumpkin. That’s McKay and Macintosh.

A few weeks ago, someone posted a thing about how Bill DeMott wanted Omega to work a body part and not do any wild moves. So, Omega worked the ass.

The reason why I bring this up is because here is a match where Stan Hansen wrestles a Stan Hansen match. He also... works a body part.

Also, it's his 72nd Birthday today.

I initially thought it was going to be some sort of joke of saying Trevor Murdoch looks like John Goodman thanks to the screenshot... with overdubing him with lines from King Ralph or The Big Lebowski or somesuch.

Then, the narration begins, and it really is John Goodman giving a classy narration on a tastefully straightfoward historical wrestling piece.

I feel afool.

My favorite Stan Hansen thing is his role from No Holds Barred, the Movie.




I remember my parents buying the movie and you also got the match after the movie which was Hogan and Beefcake v Macho Man and Zeus THE HUMAN WRECKING MACHINE!!!!!


Remember as a kid, he terrified me, lol

Tajiri has signed with MLW and will debut at their TV tapings on October 2nd.

Fuck AEW.
Fuck WWE.
Fuck the NWA.
Fuck New Japan.
Fuck classic wrestling.

It’s been easier than I suspect. I’ve checked the news a couple of times and listened to some Cornette YouTube clips (not his full show, I’m even off criticism of wrestling). I think I might be properly done soon.

Thanks for the memories, wrestling. You got me through some weird times growing up. But it’s time I realized you haven’t been good to me in a long, long time. Fuck off and don’t let the door hit you on the way out.

The WWE surely gets a lot of the blame, but AEW was it for me. I just can’t. The self-indulgent disregard of there being any sort of art to this. The complete waste of potential. I went from being optimistic about wrestling to seeing so clearly that this is not going to be something a reasonable person can enjoy in record time.

So a special big fuck you to AEW for that. And also fuck TPWW for housing some of the most insecure and gormless little marks. I was right when I said WWE sucked way back, and I am right when I say AEW sucks right now.

I’m off to read some books or something.


drave 08-31-2021 10:05 AM

Is this sharing your sentiment orrrrrrr???

Lock Jaw 08-31-2021 10:07 AM

I still want to know what books.....

drave 08-31-2021 10:13 AM

Don't think that happened.

Lock Jaw 08-31-2021 10:17 AM

A man can read books and still post here....

drave 08-31-2021 10:21 AM

Surely, but in this instance, it didn't happen as described.

screech 08-31-2021 10:34 AM

Do you think Noid is a John Grisham fan?

BigCrippyZ 08-31-2021 11:56 AM

The only person Nerfect is a fan of is Nerfect. He returned here to write and read about his own pointless wrestling industry manuscripts less than a week after saying he was going to do something else he claimed to find "more interesting". He's not a wrestling fan, he's a fan of trolling a wrestling forum.

Sepholio 08-31-2021 11:58 AM

You marks don't know when you're being worked by the top heel of TPWW.

Evil Vito 08-31-2021 12:41 PM

He’s had several Frank Grimes moments already. Just a shame the electrocution moment wasn’t one of them.

Wehttam 08-31-2021 02:46 PM

hope he takes some of this time to work himself under 3 bills

Yes it did happen. It’s still happening. Yanks are so bad at English and tense. I can’t remember the last time I watched so little wrestling. I can’t even bring myself to watch that Trevor Murdoch clip. It’s just all so depressing.

drave 08-31-2021 05:45 PM

What books did you read man?

He had actually gotten pretty good towards the end of the 90s.

They used to call him "Ecstasy Eric" cause he dressed like an Ecstasy dealer lol

I kinda like that set up for a hurricanrana. It's different.

Lock Jaw 08-31-2021 07:58 PM

Yeah, I kinda dig that setup

Supreme Olajuwon 08-31-2021 07:59 PM

Judging by that gear it appears Eric Watts was the original member of Team Xtreme

Matt and Jeff owe him royalties

Supreme Olajuwon 08-31-2021 08:00 PM

And if he was wearing a thong then Lita owes him too

Watts actually recently said in an interview that the Hardyz worked an indie with him in 99 and got the idea for their gear from him lol

Its a nice setup but think it would look more flashier or smoother if it was done by a smaller guy.

It does create the opportunity for some sweet looking powerbomb counters to be possible though.

Bad News Gertner 08-31-2021 08:21 PM

Ricky Morton used to do that quite a bit
