I think it's funny that Lucky always seemed to be a moral police/on a high horse type of guy and then he disappears with a bunch of fellow
bOOard members' money. Classy.

No, damn you. That magnificent bastard will be remembered.
That magnificent bastard is a legitimate fucking thief. He vanished with Fantasy Baseball money from a lot of the old school members of this board,
including Pun and myself.
Well in that case I hope they take his Vaseline away.
Stay wet my friends.

Jesus Christ, even at 62 years-old and in court Hogan won't fucking put anybody over.
Jokes aside, I totally get why people might feel schadenfreude about this based on some of Gawker Media's ethical and editorial decisions, but I
don't like the precedent this case sets. It sticks in my craw even more because Hogan is an objectively shitty person.

It is less about Hogan and more about Peter Thiel, who is the financial backer for Hulk in this lawsuit. He has had a (justifiable) vendetta against
Gawker ever since they outed him years ago and vowed to get his revenge.
When Hogan's shit hit the proverbial fan, Peter jumped in and financed Hogan's case to the tune of millions. Hogan's lawyers
repeatedly kept refusing settlement offers from Gawker and Hogan lost reportedly close to 70 percent of his assets in his divorce from Linda. So there
is simply no way he was funding this himself.
In other words, without Thiel's deep pockets and never ending axe to grind, Hogan never drops the leg on the big, stinky giant known as Gawker
Media.

In light of the whole rumours about Taker not returning Vince's calls; Michelle McCool recently posted a pic on twitter of her with her
hubby.... just an observation on my part, but Taker is sporting black hair, and as we've seen in the past when he's not prepping for
Wrestlemania he's generally reverted to his natural gray haired grampa look...
Now Summer Slam is still a bit off, and maybe the guy just wants to look younger, but let the speculation begin!

I hate to say this, but I really have no desire to see UT in-ring anymore. He's too old and too broken down and I can't be drawn in to
enjoying it because I think he's just going to get hurt. I've enjoyed his work for a long time and want to see him have a happy and
healthy retirement.
As far as VKM calling him, this is a complete failure to build new characters in the last ten years that fans will pay to see. There's a place
for nostalgia, but if you are continuously selling your biggest shows of the year of an UT match or a Stone Cold Steve Austin/Rock appearance,
something's severely wrong.

I used to dislike this Old Taker comebacks but really enjoyed his last run against Lesnar. Instead of potraying the invincible figure doing his same
old act only with less speed and power, he was a scrappy, old warrior who'd fight dirty knowing that he wasn't what he used to be. Sort of
like Terry Funk in his later days.
If they keep that potrayal I can dig a few more Taker matches

The thing with the Undertaker is I find it's hard to not like seeing him simply because we know that his in ring days are numbered... I mean
what've we got left... 5 Taker matches... 10? Even that is probably way way on the high side too unless he comes back and actually works a
schedule for a few months.
There's also some Undertaker pairings that I'd love to see... not all of them are Wrestlemania matches, but they are one's that we
never really got, or would just be cool to see...
*Cena:
This is obviously the big one, and I'd say the kind of big time match that you'd run at a Wrestlemania.
*Seth Rollins
I think they could work well together... Seth is the kind of guy I'd have rather seen end the streak, but it'd be an entertaining match
otherwise.
*Jericho
Aside from maybe a throwaway Raw, or multi-man match did these two ever feud, or have a big match? It's one where you'd know Jericho would
lose; just because it wouldn't matter... but it's also one of those last era matches out there that never really happened.
*Kevin Owens.:
Just because it'd be awesome
*Kane...
Okay, not one last Kane match... although there is part of me that thinks these two should retire each other, but maybe a small run with the brothers
of destruction re-uniting like they did at Raw 1000

Let's all agree that Cena/Undertaker is happening in the next year, that it won't be a bad thing, and that it will be Undertaker's
last thing.
There - now we can move on.

I actually think it's usually the gookers and other Taker talkers discussing ideas and predictions and then you bitching, whining, and moaning
about them doing so. I do, however, fully admit that I could be wrong on this, as I often skip over posts once I realize they don't interest me.

* Interesting (no she-male parts involved though) thing here. Apparently Rollins used the Vertebreaker, which WWF/E banned fifteen years ago when
Hurricane Helms had it as his move, in a house match against AJ. Rollins fuck up without knowing it was banned? AJ OK'd it anyway? Vince
approved it?
Haven't
seen this move in a while omg

No way did Rollins and/or AJ not know that move was banned, especially with Rollins having the Curb Stomp taken away hes bound to have known the
banned list. It also seems a bit of a waste for Vince to ok such a move for a mere house show.
New finisher for Seth maybe?

Matt Hardy showing absolute class by using the Orlando shootings to plug his match tonight:
I'm in Orlando, where the horrific shooting took place. My
condolences to all.
Let me entertain u with my handling of #BrotherNero
tonight.

OF course, this dumbass is now backtracking as people have called him on it. Just another edition of LOLTNA.
ETA: Apparently he has lost 200,000 followers over this tweet. Good. The dumbass earned it.

That's just people looking for a reason to hate on him because they desperately want him to be a piece of shit even though he's not.
It's the same people who stick to their guns that both Hardys are meth addicts and to this day hold themselves up in arena bathrooms to get
their fix before their bell time.
What that tweet is, is Matt Hardy giving his condolences to those affected by the shooting and encouraging people to escape from the sadness and pain
for a night by watching wrestling, saying he's going to do his best to entertain them and occupy their minds so they aren't focused on the
tragedy.
I get pretty annoyed with all this deep reading into things that people do. He had 140 characters for that tweet and used them as best he could, then
clarified himself for those who misinterepteted him either mistakenly or purposefully. In other words, his tweet was "sucks what happened here in
Orlando, it's a tragedy and my heart goes out to everyone affected, I hope I can take your mind off of the bloodshed for a little while tonight
while I'm wrestling here in Orlando" and that's seriously nothing to get all pissy about.
People need to stop searching for ways to be pissed off about everything. I apologize for the rant, but I almost posted the tweet and a summarized
version of this rant before royberto even posted it to be one of those people.
