JR tried bringing it back, he was in favour of reintroducing announced time limits as well, something else you don't get anymore.

Kind of both amuses and saddens me to hear commentators not of the "old school" mindset calling moves.
No move ever gets a proper name any more, it's always a "modified-name-of-well-known-move-it-kinda-looks-vaguely-like"
Either that or a "variation of"

For some reason I am blanking on the term "Irish Whip". I think nowadays Cole is just all "he sends him into the ropes/turnbuckles!"
I am probably wrong and they actually say it all the time.

Flair used to make racist remarks about his opponents as well waaaay back in the day. There's a story in his book about him calling Rufus Jones "Kunta Kinte" from Roots during promos...if that happened today it would be a PR disaster. :lol:

Stop whining, those were the best days of announcing in wrestling history. J.R. and The King were great, but nothing really matches the combinations of Jesse Ventura, Gorilla Monsoon, Bobby Heenan, and sometimes even Vince McMahon back then.
