    PWD 691: Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to Everyone. Wrestle Kingdom 13 is almost here.

    1. Vader: Was a major player in two major companies and still had a bit of a big run in the E (Shawn Michaels setting Vince's money on fire again). He was also the best of the four in the ring. 2. Steiner: Was one of the top tag team wrestlers ever, a solid draw. By the time he got to the main...

    PWD 690: How long till XFL?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pursuit_Channel Literally the only citation on wikipedia for this ten year old network is the Impact announcement.

    PWD 690: How long till XFL?

    Well with 20th Century Fox getting bought Sony figures this will be the year they finally get to fourth place.

    PWD 688: Wrestling Machine

    Well since Asuka got the strap that leaves only two wrestlers in history to win the modern Royal Rumble and never have the world title, Shinsuke Nakamura and Lex Luger.

    PWD 688: Wrestling Machine

    They are cherrypicked nonsense though. When the Poles were beat many retreated to France where they lost again to the Germans. The 1:1 is pure asinine, one person's opinion as war is not a gentlemanly duel. The Russians, in particular, were utterly outgunned so no true test could ever have...

    PWD 688: Wrestling Machine

    Poland crumbled in a matter of days, they were so easy to pacify the Germans didn't even need a Vichy style government to maintain control. The tens of millions of Poles did almost nothing in resistance, the only mass changes in German troop level (only a few hundred thousand) was due to Soviet...

    PWD 676: Rex lost his smile

    I see some issues especially with a lack of communication in SPR, but nothing of that sort. I'm pretty sure SPR was in 44, with the last brother dying at Normandy which starts the mission. It certainly doesn't appear to be happening after the Battle of the Bulge. Edit: I can't read apparently...

    PWD 676: Rex lost his smile

    Sometimes Mike but I often feel Wade, but the correct answer is Ryan himself. It was a near inconceivable task for any actor two hours in to join a movie and then get the audience to root against everything they had experienced, but dammit Damon pulled it off. Of the many criticisms one could...

    PWD 676: Rex lost his smile

    The Big Parade Paths of Glory The Best Years of our Lives Ballad of a Soldier Come and See Fury is shit, a retarded attempt to create a masculine ideal and a rejection of the Opum character in SPR that is so shit Pitt literally leads dozens to die meaninglessly over and over to make this point...

    PWD 658: #MyBusiness edition

    Chael somehow older than Fedor.

    How Goldberg's streak almost ended...

    Jesus the ideas that Kevin Nash thought were good. No wonder Easy E was looking to get into any other business at that point.

    PWD 657: Well, if he's gay, he shouldn't be allowed near animals.

    Mega-budget movies are targeted at the mass audience. Even the hardest, malest output period (opening weekend) is at least 40% female for every MCU release. If they only relied on one gender they'd be Mamma Mia levels of popular.

    PWD 655: Slimmed Down & Extra Wedgie Edition

    From a business standpoint that would work if he beat GSP, but Conor is a young man and a vastly bigger draw. He made a rematch go from farcical to plausible with that promo.

    PWD 655: Slimmed Down & Extra Wedgie Edition

    UFC now faker than wrestling. Try selling the rematch before this riot, every story would have been Khabib dominating the fight except when he went full retard in round three. People would be turning on Conor and speculating about retirement and if his heart is in the game. Now people are...

    PWD 654: End of an Era Match 2 in The Land Down Under

    It's tough, Mexico is a den of daggers. Last to get in was Perro Jr. and that was only because of his tragic demise. The last two living inductees were Atlantis in 2013 and Konnan in 2009. Half that list is a gimme, but Wagner Sr. only just got in. Anyway my predictions of most likely. Archie...

    PWD 654: End of an Era Match 2 in The Land Down Under

    Meltzer Observer HOF ballot. For the uninitiated less than one person per category usually gets elected.

    Has Vince McMahon been successful in spite of himself?

    He lived less than five months after the sale's completion, it was not a surprise he was going to die. He was motivated solely by that fact. His partners actually offered him more (along with Marella) for the company and Sr. only quieted them with the promise to cancel his son's acquisition if...

    Has Vince McMahon been successful in spite of himself?

    If he wasn't going to be die he wouldn't have sold the company, his every action was motivated by that fact. The sale price was to take care of personal finances, he effectively gifted his son the company because if he wasn't dying he would have continued to own it or else wanted a fair price...

    Has Vince McMahon been successful in spite of himself?

    Sorry but this is modern business propaganda, Vince was required to pay only about a million dollars to acquire the company. He was also required to pay in quarterly installments (giving him months to earn the money) or else ownership would revert to three of Vince Sr.'s partners. Considering...

    Has Vince McMahon been successful in spite of himself?

    Much of life is luck, and he has been blessed. With the new tv deal his company is worth more than the UFC despite ratings at their lowest point. He only got the money because Fox needs content and they got their Disney money to blow. Rock was mostly Patterson, Austin by JR, the Reaganite Hogan...
