I pose an interesting topic for discussion...........
As I'm watching Battlebowl 93 on the 25yearsofwrestling channel on Youtube, I wonder if this type of ppv would be received well with today's audience. I know WWE had Cyber Sunday but we were told who the participants were in in advance and then we voted. (Even though the matches were still determined by WWE) At least with Battlebowl, nobody knew anything. (At least that's the perception) I know Battlebowl was catered to the tag team division, but it could be tweaked for singles competition. Its a shame that WWE, with all this library, can't come up with decent storylines for it's performers. It's so much shit that they could recycle and revamp to their current style. I would gladly settle for a wrestling channel, not that bullshit WWE ONDEMAND
What are your thoughts??????????????
Battlebowl was a one-time professional wrestling pay-per-view produced by World Championship Wrestling. It was made up of tag team matches in which the partners were randomly drawn in a "Lethal Lottery" and a team had to work together to advance to the Battlebowl Battle Royal. Previous versions of Battlebowl had taken place at Starrcade 1991 and Starrcade 1992. It took place on November 20, 1993 from the Pensacola Civic Center in Pensacola, Florida. The last Battlebowl was held at Slamboree 1996 under the name of Lord of the Ring.

HHH Pushing For Him & JR To Take Over WWE Developmental
In what may be the very first clue of post-Vince McMahon World Wrestling Entertainment, HHH is pushing hard behind the scenes for what a key insider described to WrestleZone as "a major overhaul" to the developmental system.
"It's no secret within WWE that HHH feels the developmental system is a joke," our inside source told us this evening, "and the Florida developmental area looks to be a runaway train."
Our source tells us that HHH has pitched directly to Vince McMahon that Jim Ross be utilized in a recruiting capacity, while HHH would oversee more of what Talent Relations Executive John Laurinaitis does on a daily basis in terms of checking up on the system.
Great news if true, hhh has a great mind for the business it's just the fact that he buries people while wrestling that makes him an asshole.

Does anyone remember the Superbrawl rap song that I think was from 89? I googled it but couldn't find anything. It was doing a Flair vs Steamboat feud. I remember some of the lyrics going that who ever the Andersons were feuding with went " They can not defeat the father and the son " and something like " Superbrawl is about to begin " that's all I remember.
This may or may not be it but this is what I found.
CLASSIC!
couldnt imagine them doin something like that nowRemember these classic vignettes? Man these are telling my age.

HHH Named The Most Overrated Wrestler Of All-time
Posted by Steve Carrier on 02/13/2011 at 11:58 PM
UGO.com has posted a list counting down the top 25 most overrated wrestlers of all-time. The ranking is topped by 13-time world champion Triple H, who was named Most Overrated in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter awards on three consecutive occasions (2002-2004), and again in 2009.
Regarding the self-proclaimed "King of Kings", UGO.com wrote: "For too long, Triple H has received a free pass from internet wrestling fans, but we say, "No more!" Sure, he used to be great, but that was before he destroyed his body and moved on to destroying the careers of younger wrestlers. Folks these days like to say that "The King of Kings" makes people into stars, but wrestlers tend to either succeed despite the terrible, emasculating beatings he gives them or just disappear back into the midcard. What's worse is that he does it all with the same four boring, mechanical moves - a fact which goes strangely unnoticed by the world's Cena-bashers, who tend to love "The Game." If Triple H was as great as people say he is, the past 13 years of constant pushes shouldn't have just turned him into another Rock or "Stone Cold," it should have gotten him elected King of the Universe.
"And The Chaperone looks atrocious."
The complete ranking is as follows:
25. Diesel
24. Arn Anderson
23. Alberto Del Rio
22. Jerry Lynn
21. Shelton Benjamin
20. Verne Gagne
19. Jeff Jarrett
18. Sabu
17. Finlay
16. Christopher Daniels
15. Mr. Anderson
14. William Regal
13. Indy Geeks (Mike Quackenbush pictured)
12. Randy Orton
11. Gorgeous George
10. Scott Hall
9. Dean Malenko
8. Owen Hart
7. Christian
6. Curt Hennig
5. Miss Elizabeth
4. Jerry "The King" Lawler
3. Giant Baba
2. Hulk Hogan
1. Triple H
