Can I borrow your time machine? Wouldn't mind leaving present day.

 

Lars Sullivan and No Way Jose could be a really fun tag team dynamic for the dusty rhodes classic.

 

the worst thing about max landis in that video is he's drinking a fuckin' becks.

 

hate to burst your bubble my friend but you're about 3 years or so too late...

but yes it's a great video.

 

Just found it on fb and it's new to me, could be new to others too sooo

 

It's definitely worth a repost, I was just being a dick. I'm sure people haven't seen it.

Even though Max is insufferable, it's a really fantastic video.

 

At this point Shane feels more like GM than Bryan, who is barely seen anymore.

Angle as GM without Steph is also way more tolerable than Mick and Steph. Just let one person do the job.

 

With the Dean Ambrose hype being the highest its ever been in this thread I guess its a good time to remind everyone that if he wins the tag titles on Sunday he's the next Grand Slam champion in WWE.

 

Wrestling isn't wrestling is great, but FUCK MAX LANDIS.

 

And the youngest at that, too.

I think Angle is the fastest to get it, though Kane is pretty close too.

 

Ah shaddup

Meltz is gonna get so much shit for this. His level of not giving a fuck is very high though.

 

This match is supposed to be incredible as well.

 

Did an 8 man elimination match in Fire Pro last night. 6 guys were eliminated in the first 20 minutes. The final 2 were Scott Steiner and Ultimate Warrior

They went 30 more minutes by themselves. The match got a 100% rating. What the fuck

 

THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE

 

We have details on Ric Flair's latest health scare

 

So I guess the word now is that Code Orange is going to play at Takeover for Black.

 

Dude it is unreal how this band has blown the fuck up the past year.

 

It's really damn cool. Lucky I got to see them the beginning of the year.

But most importantly, the Black/Itami match is going to rule.

 

Code Orange does nothing for me.

 

Everyone likes this song

 

nothing. Though it does make me want to listen to Doomriders and Zozobra.

 

I love it - they deserve it a lot
