For real Mike Adamle was kind of fun in his role as a bumbling GM, but they should've gone further and made him Michael Scott. But, Vince being 35 years behind pop culture constantly means that would never happen.

Tiffany was one of the best things to happen to ECW. Just ECW in general. She tried so hard.

Mike Adamle was perfect in his role as the lead announcer on American Gladiators, and I was so bummed out when his WWE run was a disaster. In retrospect, those flubs look a lot different now, knowing he was later diagnosed with dementia as a result of CTE.

Yeah I was excited for Adamle too. He was a mainstay on my local NBC affliate in Chicago and I was a huge Gladiators fan. I figured the flubs were because he just didn't watch wrestling, but they do have a darker tone now with his CTE. Always seemed like a super nice guy and was an easy going presence to watch on the news.

I have told this story a bunch here and will tell it many more times but I was at a very poorly attended Indy show on Memorial Day Weekend ten years ago main evented by Rick Fuller and GIANT PHARAOH (who I am low key amazed never got a run anywhere even though he sucked) Vs Apollo (of TNA minor fame. But most famous in Puerto Rico) and someone who I am forgetting.

Before the show, I am using the men’s room and Rick Fuller sidles up to the urinal next to me despite every other urinal being unoccupied. FIRST (BUT HOPEFULLY NOT LAST) TIME I WAS PEESHY AROUND SOMEONE WHO WAS IN WCW/nWo Thunder.


CLASSIC JUVENILE NEW ENGLAND MAN BEHAVIOR THAT I AM SURE LAZ WOULD APPROVE OF!

the way you share that story makes it sound like you took a peek
Half of my buddy @King Kamala 's stories sound like him trying really hard to impress his older brother, but failing because it inevitably focuses too much on Maine or his weird fucking diet.

It's cool though, bro. Only true NEW ENGLAND MEN can mark for Rick Fuller. I'll drive up in case your stepson needs a smacking, just let me know.

Kayfabe died for pizza.

But seriously, how much money did they have to throw at Meng/Haku to do this spot?

Maybe it was in his contract to change their price from $9.99 to $5 for a pizza.

"Do you want to look like one of the biggest stars in the company and make money for virtually nothing?"

I love how Meng is in the commercial but Hogan or Sting are trading cards people can get with the pizza. That's the best decision WCW made.
