we nicknamed one of our outfielders "jake the snake" for obvious reasons

It's not obvious could you please explain?

Oh that Missouri education.


Kidding.

Dude. Seriously?!




I learnt in the Land of Lincoln.

I'm just curious. Did the guy have a mullet? Pet Snake? A knack for theatrics with a mean streak?

[BigRedLedbetter]

Kidding, bud

who's your favorite tag team? Mine was the Rockers.

demolition. i still kind of hate how they petered out at the end with crush and the freebird rule, and ax leaving.

daniel bryan was pulled from the euro tour after smackdown. i guess he was supposed to challenge cena on raw and the match was supposed to go long, but he's apparently hurt. he was in a tag match with cena on the smackdown taping, but was then sent home as a 'precautionary measure'.

don't fall apart on us daniel-san.

This really saddens me. As much as I hate to admit it, it was a good idea not to put him in the main event at Wrestlemania.

[numbers]

For them to send him home means he's REALLY hurt. They generally don't give a shit about guys roughing out European tours with injuries.

it's all sheamus' fault

well, now the talk is it was concussion related, and that it may have been from that smackdown match where sheamus busted bryan open.

I’ve been told that the situation with Daniel Bryan is that he suffered a concussion. I don’t know what the status of his neck is or his elbow, that may still be a problem, but the big issue on the tour was a concussion that he suffered and it was in fact, for those of you who saw the Smackdown show where Sheamus came out and gave him a beating, we actually talked about this on the program, there had been some heat on Sheamus for, I don’t know if being careless is the best word, but he did give Daniel Bryan a beating and apparently Daniel Bryan suffered a concussion in that beating, so I guess that’s the situation.

I presume there has to be a little more to the story because if Daniel Bryan got a concussion he shouldn’t have being doing anything on the shows and they did put him in some tag team matches, some six-man matches, he was in the ring, so I don’t know if he maybe got cleared, maybe after suffering the concussion they cleared him, but he was still suffering symptoms.

Is Seamus any good? He looks like he would be a really crappy wrestler.

[numbers]

I don't like him, but there's worse big men.

The Road Warriors
Freebirds
Midnight Express
Rock N' Roll Express
Hart Foundation
Bulldogs

we'll never see another era for tag teams like the 80s, though the late 90s/early 00s was close

[numbers]

If I was going to do a top 5

New Age Outlaws
Edge & Christian
Steiner Brothers
Owen Hart & British Bulldog
Hardy Boys

There's some other teams I really loved like Jericho & Benoit but they weren't together long enough.

He is not that great of a wrestler but he is a great worker IMHO.

Steiner Brothers

Loved their finisher. Incredibly underrated as a tag team.

[numbers]

I think Scott Steiner's metamorphosis after the team broke up caused people to forget how good they were.

It's really true. SS had a great match with Flair. I wanna say it was at a Clash of the Champions. It was a 15-20 minute draw but it was excellent. He went from one of the best workers of all time to one of the greatest characters (though crazy) of all time.

I def think the Steiners belong in the HoF.

Unlikely after Steiner being banned from Wrestlemania.
