Good no sell by Natty.

How the hell did Hogan get that delusional?

hilarious how little working knowledge Hulk has of wrestling history. In his book he has several things that are blatantly wrong. Can't remember specifics, but pretty sure he talks about defending the title at WrestleMania I and several other blatantly nonsensical stories.

This clip from Hogan is truly amazing. Not because what he's saying is wrong, but because it's so insane for Hogan of all people to be incredulous about the very concept of refusing to do a job that Vince asks someone to do.

Didn't he also say he turned heel and joined the nWo or became face at the end of WCW because of 9/11?

i think the EC match is going to be too hard to screw up, even for WWE.

shield vs wyatts also very hard to screw up with so many talented guys in there.

Usos will almost certainly win, probably clean

i think big E vs swagger will be interesting. can go either way.

Young vs Oneil should be good

Batista/ADR will prob suck and so will the Rhodes/Axl and Ryback.

This is a very random video that I just happened to come across, but I've gotta say, as much of a big pile of AIDS as I think he is on-screen in a wrestler/commentator role, Kevin Nash always seems like one of the cooler guys in the business when you see him out of character and not performing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_SCDiPGFN0

Doesn't make me enjoy any of his past or occasionally present work even a little bit more, but still I'm happy to watch any kind of shoot-like video from him whenever I stumble into a new one.

I'm the same. I liked Nash in the early NWO days but was never a big fan of his overall. I've always found his shoots fun though. He's chill and doesn't mind making fun of himself.

Nash has a reputation as a huge douche who held down other wrestlers. So yeah, other than that maybe he is pretty cool?

BTW the Dutch Mantel (aka Zeb Coulter) interview on the Stone Cold podcast was fun, definitely worth a listen as a pro grap fan.

Of course I did, but that's straight-up laughing at WCW. Nash didn't enhance the segment.

Just read that we won't get WWE Network in Canada until the end of 2014/2015. Plus:

Spoiler:

Definitely not shelling out $70 to watch Wrestlemania when my US counterparts get it for $9.99. F that.

What is the "that Nitro ending"? Also that is a really dumb idea given the existence of youtube. Its bad enough when they put "exclusive" stuff on their app.

One time WCW ended Nitro in mid-main event with the promise to show the rest during commercials of TNT's new crappy show. They were just blatantly forcing the Nitro audience to give ratings to their new show if they wanted to see the main event.

I'm also worried about WWE Network being $9 for say a year, then Vince gets greedy and jacks the price up.

I'm pretty sure they're going to call that an "introductory price" or something and move it to $12.99, that was the figure they kept bringing up at the shareholders' meetings if I recall.
