"WWE continuity is like the wrestling equivalent of creationism."

lol

BizarroKing 05-30-2013 01:40 AM

What time do you record?

Afterlife 05-30-2013 02:07 AM

I think we started around 7pm EST.

Nark Order 05-30-2013 12:15 PM

Gonna czech out podbean soon and see what we can do to get the audio version going.

Seriously. I think Nowhere Man made it seem like he was just in the right gimmick at the right time. The man could cut a promo.

Heisenberg 05-31-2013 07:09 PM

Listened to the first 30-40 minutes so far, then had to exit my car. Loved the shout out for Curry Man and Shark Boy. Will continue this later, good stuff.

#1-norm-fan 05-31-2013 07:21 PM

And now we hit "Wade Barrett is better than Randy Orton in every single way"...


Aaaaand you lose me.

Savio 05-31-2013 07:26 PM

The show would benefit if it had a "Devils Advocate"

Wrestling blasphemy there.

I expected Narc to be the resident anti-TNA guy, but once we got him to sit down and watch a few episodes, he actually enjoyed it.

Nark Order 05-31-2013 07:43 PM

Well, there's still stuff I'm not "on board with" as far as TNA is concerned but it isn't "lolTNA" like I originally thought. Also, Sammy and I are polar opposites on JBL.

NoJabbaNoBogRoll 05-31-2013 07:58 PM

I know you disagreed with us on Hogan's role on TV. You seemed to approve of most other things in TNA, though.

#1-norm-fan 05-31-2013 08:03 PM

TNA is like the AFL if the AFL were actually more entertaining than the NFL.

It would still only be the AFL and nowhere near the level of the NFL. You just can't compete. No matter how hard you try. They just aren't at the same level and that's that.

Shisen Kopf 05-31-2013 08:04 PM

Should I tape this?

#1-norm-fan 05-31-2013 08:05 PM

TNA really does try harder and put forth a better product creatively than WWE. WWE has the mainstream attention on lock though and the more talented roster but as they've proven over recent years, they don't need to try.

Aaaaand you lose me.

Orton is serviceable at best in the ring, his promos are boring and all sound the same, his middle-rope DDT looks more and more contrived every time he does it, and he looks like a shaved orange monkey.

#1-norm-fan 05-31-2013 08:21 PM

Orton is quite possibly the best in-ring psychologist in wrestling today. The man can be jobbed left and right and be involved in boring storylines and still get the crowd going during his matches (Post-WrestleMania crowd excluded but... I mean... come on.)

He's not a master of the mic by any means but he's fucking stellar at everything else. He's very close to a prototypical sports entertainment star. Barrett is still unproven. He definitely wins on the "able to lay off the drugs" aspect though.

I have a120 minute tape with the ghostbusters song that my dad taped off the radio for me back in 1984. Could probably tape over that.

#1-norm-fan 05-31-2013 08:24 PM

You'd still be an hour short. This is quite the investment.

Shisen Kopf 05-31-2013 08:29 PM

Well damn. They need to shorten the show to 30 mins tops. But I suppose it gives me something to do while I'm playing Atari.

NoJabbaNoBogRoll 05-31-2013 08:30 PM

If you're an Orton fan, you better strap yourself in for a bumpy ride, if we have the same line-up for each episode. Most of us can't stand him.

Savio 05-31-2013 08:37 PM

Ladies love Orton.

I'm really not seeing it, man. His moveset is unremarkable with the exception of the fact that a lot of it looks sloppy and weak. And his 'psychology' seems to be "let the other guy wrestle most of the match, then pop up and do a quick 5 moves of doom, sell a little bit more, then do a suprise RKO" in virtually every match. And his voice is slow, robotic, and awkward on the mic.

Barrett actually looks like he's doing damage out there, and is a much better talker. And he also doesn't keep getting busted for drugs.

NoJabbaNoBogRoll 05-31-2013 08:49 PM

I also fail to see this magnetic pyschology that Orton supposedly has. I am unable to fathom why the audience still give him reactions, most of the time.

pretty much this only I think he gets a bit of unnecessary stick on the promo front. He's possibly the most "complete" package of the current generation. If John Cena hadn't have been born, he'd probably have been this generations "the guy" for some time now.

NoJabbaNoBogRoll 05-31-2013 08:50 PM

Oh, it's on.

CSL 05-31-2013 08:52 PM

it baffles me that people don't see this, the guy is so good it's ridiculous. "The prototypical sports entertainment star" as #1-wwf-fan puts it is pretty much the perfect way to describe him.

#1-norm-fan 05-31-2013 08:53 PM

Jabba/Nowhere - CSL/Fan battle royale.

NoJabbaNoBogRoll 05-31-2013 08:54 PM

It's weird that the two opposing camps have literally zero common ground on this guy.

It's like we're in the Discussion Forum.

Nark Order 05-31-2013 08:58 PM

Nobody on the show even remotely appreciates Orton.

Also, that.

As far as being naturally over... regardless of the storyline you're in or the jobbing you've done... Orton is second only to Cena.

We'll have to get somebody in to do a guest spot each episode, defending whatever atrocity Orton committed that week.

so concede ground bastard. Or we're gonna have to deconstruct every single sentence, referencing various articles and videos for each and every individual word, thus rendering the entire process entirely brain numbing and futile yet it will still go on for 7 pages.

if somebody doesn't like him for whatever reason etc I understand (ish) but you're deluded if you think that's why he gets the reaction he does

Nark Order 05-31-2013 09:07 PM

I just don't think he's good. Dunno.
