Ugh
I cut it off on that segment, I didn't even get to that part.
Vince is a sick fuck.
Vince is a sick fuck.
Sorry to hear about his passing. He was explosive in the ring. Very similar to Chris Benoit in size and ability. Dynamite Kid suffered for years because the sport and the pain meds took a toll on his body. Both British Bulldogs are dead, damn. They were a favorite tag team of mine back in the old WWF days. Their matches with the Hart Foundation were almost as good as the matches between the Rock 'N Roll Express vs. Midnight Express.
Yeah RIP to one of the all time greats the Dynamite Kid! I loved the British Bulldogs as a kid! I wish the wrestling organizations back in the day would have worked together and shared talent!
Could you imagine a match with the British Bulldogs vs. The Road Warriors, Midnight Express, Freebirds or Steiner Brothers!
I been watching wrestling since the mid 80s
its weird how i can recall the 'British Bulldogs' and Davey Boy Smith vividly...but draw a blank regarding the Dynamite Kid
i know that he was the precursor to the smaller intense technician that led to wrestlers like Chris Bennoit and Daniel Bryan...I've also heard stories about how intense he was outside the ring
RIP and thoughts go out to his family and friends as they deal with this difficult situation

Those all would be dream matches. I can only SIM those matchups on Fire Pro Wrestling.
As far as cross promotion wrestling goes I remember when then WWF champion Bob Backlund wrestled then NWA champion Ric Flair in the Omni in Atlanta. That is one tape no one can find(Ole Anderson and Vince McMahon are probably the only ones to have it). That would be the golden grail if it was to surface.
I would've liked to have seen them use his idea of being both personalities on each brand. He could've made that work. Cody on SD & Dust on Raw...would've been interesting. I think a lot of folks slept on how good a hand he is.
Well damn Liv
Who won ?Those all would be dream matches. I can only SIM those matchups on Fire Pro Wrestling.

I mean the shit writes itself.
Apollo, Titus, Bobby, Lio, Street Profits = Black Evolution,
The Anti New Day heel stable. Suited and booted. They help each other get all the titles, backstage promos dramatic and strategic like Nino Brown in New Jack City. In-ring promos to show progress and a united front showcasing that "as long as we stick together, we're going to win and takeover everything" that black people actually need to be on IRL.
Bobby goes after the main title, Apollo the US/IC title. SP for the tags. Lio and Titus for comedic relief/goons/managers. Then a mouthpiece who plays a Slick-like boss. What's Ernest "The Cat" Miller doing these days?
You could even call them Revolution, as in "the revolution will not be televised" and revolutionaries.
Shit would be hard AF.
But Vince only want that goofy ass, stereotypical ass shit.
If I didn't hate 2K's pinning and submission systems, I'd probably buy a game just to make that shit.

Live event.WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?!?
Or how about r/Evolution or r>Evolution a play on the HHH stable?
Lio as comedic relief is a STRETCH
Am I the only one that thought The New Day was gonna be this back when Xavier Woods was staring motherfucker-ly at the monitors before they came together? Not complaining cause they're over as fcuk right now.
The setup looks like a house show on their way to a RAW or Smackdown
... Dawg, ain't no reason you should be losing to Lucha House Party every night... Except Vince... And the fact that you have a family and a mortgage. Come to think of it there's PLENTY of reasons Apollo isn't the main event every night, but the main one is wrong shade of white. The black shade!
to be fair they rushed Apollo from NXT
the dude has all the tools in the ring but he doesnt have a character...thats what NXT is supposed to be for
they called him with no plan or long-term booking. and he has been directionless every sense. and of course it doesnt help that he is black
in 2018 if you are black wrestler chances are you are still just 1 - the physical speciemen (Lashley), 2 - the comic relief (R-Truth, New Day) or 3 hip-hop/rap adjacent/thug (Street Profits)
I hate to say it and I'm not wishing death on the man but Vince has to kick the bucket for things to change.
