    Speaking of people who disappeared and also of SRS (who appeared in videos on YouTube with this guy), it appears Adam Blampied has done another apology video, which I think would make that three. Wonder which low standard British youtube channel will give him his next job

    Appears this one isn't that crazy, his version in cliff notes is he lied to another YouTuber about his relationship status to get together with her, they get together and it doesn't go well and now she unjustly is calling him a predator and he is mentioning lawyers and stuff like hes going to sue her for "trying to end his career". Didn't dig too much, but sounds like her version is likely she was hit on by him under premise he had an open relationship when he didn't, after they hooked up he didn't want to be in a relationship with her and I'm guessing she takes that as he's up to his old tricks again. When asked why she isn't on the channel anymore, she made a comment like he's back to his old ways and it led to him eventually stepping down "so his coworkers weren't harassed" with negative comments. Some months later, realizing he can't work a real job he releases this video I guess to try to ease back into the only "job" he can do

    Back in the early-mid 80's, Boutwell Auditorium, BHM, AL.

    That was back when Tito Santana and Greg "The Hammer" Valentine were going at it.

    Mine was January 1990… Hogan beat Mr. perfect in the main event at Hershey Park Arena.

    Macho Man, Jake the snake and the Rockers were all on the card.

    Probably a Monday Night Raw in like 97 or 98.

    Went to a Survivor Series around that time. All I remember was it ended with Stone Cold using a crane or something to pick up HHH's car with him in it and then dropping it. Think it was the 99 or 00 one

    WCW house show in the 90s at the National Guard Armory in Arab AL. Cactus Jack told the crowd he wasn’t wrestling another minute until all the goddamn kids went home and changed their shitty underwear.

    RAW 1000 was my first.

    Wrestlemania 31 (and all the related NXT/HOF/Raw-after shows)
    Wrestlemania 32 (and all the related NXT/HOF/Raw-after shows)

    A random smackdown around the time of WM32

    AEW Full Gear 2021

    That's it.

    IT could be Danielson vs. Omega and it's likely taking a backseat to Hangman vs. Page in a Cage

    I was at the first ever WWE Draft. March 25, 2002 in State College, PA.

    all I remember from it was Brock Lesnar giving Rikishi an F5 and moving around the ring like a human that size should not be capable of.

    Says a lot about the current champion’s storyline. Similar to Cody not main eventing Backlash.

    Headlined Backlash and the rematch opened Clash at the Castle with Priest/Drew as main event for obvious reasons.

    I don’t know why I thought that was the first match at Backlash. Point stands although the main event was also for the title so not exactly the same as AEW.

    Same. I don't want to pay the prices for good seats. I'd rather just stay home and watch on TV if I am going to be watching from a screen. ANd then don't have to around all those people watching from home as well.

    I've only attended a smattering of house shows in the early 90s. Oh wait! I did attend a Raw in the early 2000s. It was the episode where the horrific Beaver Cleavage character debuted.

    Unless you’re trying to sit front row, tickets aren’t that expensive. I got lower level Raw seats for $55.

    Why would I change it to Dynamite when I haven’t been to an AEW show? (Jacksonville was 40 degrees that night).

    They have really ran through play by play guys other than Cole since JR. There was Tom Phillips, Mauro, Adnan Virk, the UFC guy, the Irish guy. I think Renee did it for a while. Probably a few others.

    I think he’ll at least get a chance to settle into it since Vince isn’t there. The producer is an ESPN guy and I think Nick Khan used be his agent.

    Mauro was elite. The rest were not good, although Vince was in their ear so maybe they could have been better.

    This makes more sense. I didn’t think Swerve was poor growing up and buying your old house if your parents don’t live there anymore makes no sense.
