Picked up a Legends of Wrestling Roundtable 3 dvd set. Has the Heatseekers, Flair and Slaughter and Lawler and JYD episodes plus a shitload of matches that I have never seen before like Flair and Sting vs muta and Funk, Flair vs Luger Starcade88, Slaughter vs Backlund, Tully and Arn vs Luger and Windham. Havent watched the mtches on the Lawler JYD dvd yet but it's a pretty sweet box set. I highly suggest picking this up. Well worth 30 bucks.

Really want to see Vince as a Howard Hughes-style recluse character. Would have been great.

Mr. Kennedy getting that mega-push could have been fantastic.
Aah, what could have been. |

I'm still dark Kennedy didn't get the run he deserved in WWE. I'd happily see him back one day.

When was the last time Michael Cole was on the JBL and Cole show? I miss the JBL & Cole w/Renee Young World Tour. Those ones were the best ones.

According to the dirtsheets and other news sources, WWE stocks have dropped by around $20 since Mania. Lost about $10 after the Network didn't reach 1 million subscribers and another $10 since yesterday when the new tv deal was announced. WWE wanted around $600-$800 million per year and instead got around $200 million (barely doubled the old deal). Also getting pressure by a group of investors that want the whole executive board tossed in favor of new people. |

Jack Swagger says he wants more chest hair in pro wrestling. WWE should let him grow chest hair and bleach it.

Actually, turning him into a thowback of a late 70's/early 80's looking wrestler-slash-action star might give him a breath of fresh air. Can even be explained by Zeb Coulter wanting to give "real Americans" a hero image they can truly look up to, like all the action stars of yesterday... like Chuck Norris, or Sylvester Stallone... not Schwartzenegger, though, because he came :finger running thing: *sneaking* across our borders to get famous! *Written before I read he can't grow it |

Is it just be, or do the NXT Women's & Tag Team Titles, look better than their WWE counterparts?
I would have said all the NXT titles but I'm not really a fan of the NXT Championship. It has a very cheap look to me. I'm also not a fan of the giant "X" as the title's centreplate. |

Totally agree the NXT women's title looks better than the divas title. Hate the divas title. |

Everything but the actual NXT belt looks better, that and the Divas title look like toys.

They've grown on me from when they were first introduced but still not a huge fan of them, suppose most folk prefer the versions they saw growing up though.

That was when I really noticed how bad the latter title looks. And you're right whitey, it does look like a toy. It looks like it's made of plastic. It's a plastic toy. |

The NXT Women's Championship is too small. I like the size of the Diva's Title and how "blinged out" it is in comparison. But that is about it.

I also like the WWE tag belts. They have a unique but still classy design and stand out. However my onlycomplaint is the copper-looking finish. Makes them kinda look like giant pennies. If the colorization was more golden, or even silver, it would look nicer.
As for the NXT World Championship, the "X" shouldn't be panned so harshly. It is their innagural design for not only that title, but for the NXT brand as well. As can be sseen from the Women's and Tag Team titles, it can only get better with time in later incarnations. Besides, it wasnt near as cheap looking as the WWECW World Championship. At first, my only issue was how uncomfortable it looks when being worn. It looks bad by comparison to the others that came after. |

I thought that title looked pretty cool.
The only thing I wasn't so keen on was the size of it. When Christian held it, it was almost as big as his head. |

Actually, looking at pictures of Christian with the title now, it was as big as his head.
