The Wrestling Thread

[TSTR]

The show is World Championship Wrestling at least, but it's still under the NWA banner. This is right after Jim Crockett, Jr. got the slot on TBS back from McMahon.

You on the WWE Network TSTR?

I might renew soon. I watched all of both WCW and WWF 1996-1997 earlier this year and got about halfway through 1998 WWF. Kind of a rough spot for the WWF... the Austin vs McMahon rivalry was heating up, but the main card was weak as hell and Bret and Shawn left such a huge void. The rise of Kane was cool as was seeing the Rock standout more. But yeah Austin can't hold the entire thing on his shoulders in retrospect for me. I'm super pumped for 1999-2001 one though.

Was also going through the original WM's. Macho vs Steamboat in WM3 was the best.

Yeah a buddy of mine lets me rock his Network access. The stuff I'm watching right now isn't on there yet, though. Watching that on YouTube.

It's weird how fun it is to go back and watch old wrestling and how fast it goes by. Really is just like watching an epic drama haha.

Anyone catch Aztec Warfare III?

Lucha fan here, if my user name doesn't already give that away.

[TSTR]

Oh man I am so behind on LU, really need to catch up at some point. Somewhere in Season 2, I think.

You're missing some good stuff, great match last week

Anybody watch Wrestle Kingdom 11? I'm waiting on a DL of it now, can't wait to see this supposed 6-STAR MATCH.

New Jack is wrestling at some indy show in Greensboro down the road from me on Friday. His opponent is a young man named White Mike.

$10 to watch a live homicide? I think I can swing that.

I miss Lucha Underground, it's the only wrestling show I watch anymore and this mid season hiatus is killing me.
