The Big Show is awesome. I haven't seen him live, he was on Raw when Smackdown came to Baton Rouge last February.


We met him a few years ago at Hooters in BR after Raw. Dude is large!!

Man, you don't meet people like the Show often. What a trip to Hooters that was. I saw him on Conan and he seems pretty friendly, but I wouldn't want to be around him if he was pissed, haha. I can't fathom how big he is, Booker T gave me a high 5 in 2001, he was like a tower.

Big Show just beat S.E.S. member Masked Man, took off his mask and he was Joey Mercury from MNM. Tonight's Smackdown has been pretty good, King must be having a good time. Smackdown always delivers. It's over now but I'm catching up via DVR.

Next to Kelly, I think Layla's the hottest diva on Smackdown. She can get it.

Bret Hart still wrestles? Thought Goldberg kicked him in the head and ended his career.

That same night we met Cena at Hooters as well. Back in 1998 when I was in high school we met Lex Luger, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, and Saturn at Hooters after Nitro. It was awesome! I got a picture of me and Luger flexing! Of course, you can't even see me!

In my lifetime I have met:

Lex Luger, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Saturn, Cena, Big Show, Matt & Jeff Hardy, Johnathn Coachman, Kane, The Dudley Boyz, Chris Jericho, Earl Hebnar, HHH, Edge, and Matt Morgan. Well at least that's all I can remember right now. But, I would give all of them up to have a beer with Stone Cold!

@Geaux Big Red:
The Goldberg thing was a storyline to get him off of WCW TV, I believe his deal ended.. I'm not the biggest Bret Hart fan, especially Bret Hart/WCW fan (or anything late WCW fan) so I kinda forgot about that angle.

He and McMahon miraculously came to business terms, after many years. The resolution saw a Bret Hart vs. Mr. McMahon match at Wrestlemania 26 last spring, to get more buys for the show, and to give all the Bret fans a last big bang. It was also to promote his DVD, and bring him into WWE's hall of fame, which is held Wrestlemania weekend. It wasn't too demanding of him to work the match, and he even won the United States title from The Miz a few weeks later on Raw, due to the Hart Dynasty's involvement, and he vacated it the week after. The 7 on 7 match at Summerslam, which he is in is not going to have a lot of focus on Bret so we'll probably get the sharpshooter and whatever but he ain't working any 60 minute Ironman matches like he did with Shawn Michaels at Wrestlemania 12 again, lol.

@bringonusc:
Haha yeah! I bet he is cool as shite. I haven't seen any of his movies, but I hear his acting is improving. After the Benoit situation, Jericho became my favorite of all time, I respect the Edge, Coach is very good on ESPN these days. I definitely feel you about Stone Cold, those were incredible opportunities, I'm sure. I'm calling Matt Morgan signing with WWE when his TNA contract expires, soon. Don't be surprised.

Was Kane cool?

The "Video Wire"
is a weekly, online release from ROH. For anyone who wants to get a who's who in Ring Of Honor, here is a fine opportunity for you. Tag Wars 2010 is coming up, and it features tag teams that are already established, and singles wrestlers teaming up to participate. Sara Del Rey @ 10:47 is a pretty cute one.

I went to a ROH show in NYC (in a hotel ballroom) about 5 years ago. Colt Cabana vs Nigel McGuiness was the best match that night. I also remember seeing Somoa Joe and Jay Lethal in action. Good old school wrestling, with a ECW-esque atmosphere in regards to the crowd and venue.

Good to see some ROH fans on here. I haven't ordered any of their DVDs since 2008, but I still try and keep up with what is happening in the promotion.

I saw they are starting to do iPPV's over on GoFightLive.tv...has anyone ordered any of the shows??

@ Ric Flair:
If I had the choice to go to an ROH show anywhere in the country, it would have to be there. I bet that was the shite, not to mention Joe, Jay Lethal and Danielson was probably there.

@Maravich Maniac:
Definitely good to see ROH fans here, I agree. Baton Rouge is a casual wrestling city, at best. MYBRTV had pictures of Umaga to promote their free ticket giveaway to Smackdown, in February (2 months after he died) Who knows when, if ever they will come to Louisiana, I think they have been to Houston before? Yeah they started doing the iPPV's, they're not that expensive but I wouldn't risk it unless you trust your computer, I don't trust mine. I haven't bought any of their DVD's, and I have been following it for a couple of years now, much more seriously since this year started. The HDNet show is awesome, and very well produced. Pistol Maravich is the shite, I like your username.
