Here's the debut episode of Prime Time Wrestling from January 1985 with original hosts Jesse Ventura and Jack Reynolds who was AWFUL. Gorilla would replace Reynolds in August.

I have the entire 1985 set of Prime Time Wrestling shows in my collection. I don't even think the Network has 1985 up last time I checked.

On the bright side, if Sheamus has to retire, they could always do a Kings of Wrestling reunion. |

Gallows and Anderson on Stonecold podcast.
Story of Festus' creation is amazing. Vince telling Gallows what he wants the face to be, then the two of them going back and forth making stupid vacant faces to eachother and drooling on themselves trying to get it right. |

Vince and WWE's booking took its toll. They thought because they had the next Undertaker in their hands, they didn't need to take care of Bray's character and its shown the past several years.

That's so stupid though, because part of thevreason taker got over in the first pkace, was that he ws heavily protected, and rarely ever lost.

Generally speaking it probably doesn't matter. However, when you lose so much that's all people can remember, you kinda dun fucked up lol

If the outcomes of matches don't matter then why watch a show centered around matches?

I don't really mind the Kassius Ohno attire. I know it is regarded as "horrible," but for what they're going for I don't hate it. I'm kind of more bothered when a guy is obviously covering up fat. Owens looks way more insecure to me than Ohno. But I guess it doesn't really fit a "main eventer." That's not what Ohno is supposed to be though. I dunno, just don't hate it for him.

The CWC was a hot button. It was a novel concept and everything had stakes. It was produced to feel different and sporty. That should have been it. Take the guys that work well and put them in NXT or on the main roster and don't label them as "small." In modern WWE where half the roster is small, you don't need to make them comparatively even smaller next to the small guys. Then you can run a CWC 2 and try and get it on the USA Network or something. There's less commitment so people might give it a shot. Then you take the talent that work from that and rinse, wash, repeat. When you have guys on the roster who are small enough for the division, but are "above" it (Finn Balor), how are people supposed to take the belt seriously? It's Velocity all over again. Doesn't matter if they go faster or harder or longer. It's not important and everybody knows it's not important. Drew Gulak can be as entertaining as he wants, if he's not being entertaining with the guys who matter, it doesn't matter. |

That being said, if they are going "all-in" on 205 Live, then moving it away from the other shows is probably the best thing for all involved. That way at least the top guys on the "brand" can be booked to not look like geeks. They might even move Finn Balor there and have him feud with Hideo Itami over the belt. When you move up Oney Lorcan, Danny Burch, Johnny Gargano (I cringe about that one), and maybe even move over Chad Gable from SmackDown, you have a very decent little roster developing.
But I see it turning into a half-way house between NXT and the main roster very quickly. |

Rumor going around the net involves Cena's relationship with Nikki Bella is starting to cause him serious money problems and a possible reason why he got in trouble with Ford for selling a car given to him as part of a sponsorship deal.

That and I'd assume he never cut back on his own expensive hobbies over the years and its now coming back to haunt him.
Seems the upcoming wedding is going to devastate him even more since supposedly he doesn't have enough cash on hand for their current plans. |

Traditionally, the wedding should be on Nikki's dad.

He did mention on Unfiltered in December of 2015 (don't know why I watched that today) that he goes to dinner with Nikki ever single night. He could for sure cut back on some things.

Ah, that makes a little more sense. Pretty funny to think about as I was just watching the Punk/Bryan match from Over the Limit 2012 yesterday, and the main event was John Cena v. Johnny Ace. Ridiculous that closed the show.

More ridiculous that that was the match they followed up John Cena beating Brock Lesnar with. That match was epic and turned a smark crowd onto Cena's side. How the fuck did they think having him job to John Laurinaitis was the logical next step?

As a 90's all japan fan, I remember being hopeful that he would surprise everyone and hit Cena with an Ace Crusher.
But it was John Cena beating up an old man for 15 minutes. What a hero.. |
