(08 Dec 2014, 9:57 pm)marxistafozzski The topic of Chris Benoit will always be a sensitive one...
I can see why WWE would distance themselves from him and pretty much erase him from history, but stopping people creating him on a computer game is a bit harsh...

Plus, despite the best efforts of WWE to erase him from memory, Benoit had his Wrestlemania moment when he won the WHC in the main event of WMXX beating 'Aitch and Shawn Michaels. The show closed with Benoit and Guererro in the ring celebrating their respective title victories. It was a memorable sight which is arguably still remembered fondly by some wrestling fans.
(08 Dec 2014, 10:09 pm)NEBCD Malarkey I remember getting off the Train in Glasgow and walking under the Big TV Screen and seeing it on SKY News, Honestly I couldnt believe it, Benoit for me was a fantastic Wrestler and I think it is wrong that WWE should erase him from there History Books because of what he did to his Family, I think he should at least be remembered for what he accomplished whilst he was in WWE and Wrestling as a whole.

(08 Dec 2014, 10:13 pm)AdamY I agree.I found out when I turned in Raw and the announcement of it being a memorial for Benoit, the rumours of the double murder-suicide started doing the rounds online before Raw finished...
I was at work when the news broke of Chris Benoit's 'suicide' - and then the grim truth of the story was revealed a few hours later!

Benoit/EG Pre-Match Segment before there Matches at WMXX
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KHQTdPCf4k
Cant even find the Benoit/HHH/HBK Match in full other than Highlights on Youtube which is a Great Shame as WWE have more than likely had it Removed, to be honest there isnt much Chris Benoit (Match Wise) just Backstage Segments and Death Conspiracy Videos.

(08 Dec 2014, 10:37 pm)AdamY Well, Sullivan essentially booked his own divorce in WCW when he paired up his wife with Benoit. So anything he says regarding Benoit and Nancy I'd take with a pinch of salt.I never used to watch dubya-see-dubya, so dont know a great deal of what went on. But can remember right from the moment murder-suicide was known to be the cause, people started saying it was Sullivan, getting his own back...I just dont understand how Sullivan could have done it, surely if he had there would be evidence left behind, and if Sullivan was there, surely Benoit would not go down without a fight and surely there would be signs of self defense...I just think the sad truth is Benoit did it, he may have been mentally impaired, but all the facts point to that

(09 Dec 2014, 4:27 pm)aureolin Looks like there's some quality matches on there.
I'd noticed that there's now a Best of WCW Nitro vol.2 out, so I may have to purchase that.

Has anyone watched Lucha Underground?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucha_Underground
I've just watched the first episode and it's interesting to say the least. The executive director of the show is Robert Rodriguez who directed films like Dusk to Dawn, Desperado, Sin City and Machete. It's stylistically different to any other wrestling product I've watched as storylines are shot like actual television productions as opposed to usual 'backstage' segments.
The commentary team consists of Matt Striker (ex-WWE) and Vampiro (some of you might remember his late 90's WCW run); and the main event of the first show was Johnny Mundo (formerly John(ny) Morrison/Nitro) versus Prince Puma (Ricochet).
Well worth a watch.
(06 Dec 2014, 4:49 pm)MurdnunoC Jim Ross has signed up to do commentary on Jeff Jarrett's Global Force Wrestling presentation of New Japan's annual Tokyo Dome show on Jan 5th 2015.
http://www.puroresufan.com/njpw/page/2/
It will be interesting to see how Ross handles his commentary duties on this show. While he's widely regarded as being the best play-by-play announcer in wrestling, most of his work came under the WWE banner. People who have performed commentary for WWE in the past (e.g. Mick Foley) have complained about Vince McMahon's input while attempting to call matches. Now that he's free from restriction, he should be able to call the match as he sees fit.
(06 Dec 2014, 6:59 pm)MrFozz Jim Ross is probably the finest play-by-play announcer in the history of pro wrestling, up there with Gordon Solie...
JR's craic on the mic is second to none, some of the things he came out with was great
Slobberknocker
He's running like a scalded dog
He is whipping him like a government mule
STUNNER, STUNNER, STONE COLD STUNNER
Did JR come up with 'stomping a mudhole and walk it dry'
Would be weird hearing JR commentate for another company...
