      It wasn't quite as funny as when he said that vince would "kill to have someone like nick cage on his roster".
      That actually made me burst out laughing because I'm fairly certain that vinny mac would sooner trip naked coat himself in honey and then let someone pour 10.000 fire ants on him than have anything to do with a sideshow like that.

      Moxley is so blinded by the past that he doesn't realize Nick Cage is the wrestling equivalent of that guitarist you see in a bar band who plays mediocre covers of other bands songs for $50 and a free meal every friday night in front of a crowd of 30 people (most of whom are ignoring them) who somehow thinks that he's the second coming of eddie van halen and believes thathis band will be the next metallica if people would just give their original material a chance.

      I've also seen CZW events all the way through, but never live. Some of the guys can actually work, sometimes the shows almost look professional, and when it comes to garbage wrestling matches they usually are not the worst practitioners on the US independent circuit. One can at least expect the weapons to be in reach, the furniture already set up, so guys don't look like idiots running around for where something is hid or spend five minutes putting something together, but CZW is/was usually something I would catch because it snuck onto wrestlemania weekend, some wrestler I was interested in happened to be on some cards or a promotion I liked happened to be working with it.

      There is no "workable schedule" if your whole gimmick is purposely injuring yourself repeatedly for the amusement of 20-30 degenerates. While major pro wrestling definitely has some more work to do to protect and ensure the good health of their talent, generally speaking, they don't create an environment where talent is expected to excessively injure themselves every time they enter the ring.

      @thesupremepizzaking 3 года назад +2

      ​@@zakunick1 The wrestlers from the 80's and 90's had to constantly do shows nonstop in multiple different territories because the pay wasn't very good when you started out back then, so of course even if they weren't overdoing it every night, it was a heavy burden. But that doesn't happen anymore because there are no more territories, so your scheduling point is wasted hindsight. And I would also point out that in the 80s-90s, a lot of the talent had massive addiction problems long before most of them got hooked on opium pills (cocaine, alcohol, steroids, etc) so trying to say lighter scheduling would have prevented them from getting hooked on pills is a pretty big stretch.

    I had no idea what to expect going into the Nick Gage episode. After about 60 seconds, I shut it off and watched something else. That is not wrestling. That shit is a bunch of bums fighting over a cheeseburger. I have no respect for any of them or what they do. It's just plain fucking stupid.

    I actually loved the episode, and don’t have the same distain for Gage or Mox or that kind of wrestling that Cornette does. That said, “bank addicted drug robber” cracks me up every time.

    I found the Gage episode disappointing. I respect he has gotten his life together but, there was some seriously deluded opinions on there. Was almost like they were trying to paint him as a legitimate star.

    I didn't watch it either Jim, had never heard of the guy thought it was disgusting when I saw him and what he does. I have loved dark side of the ring but this was the first episode of all 3 seasons I did not watch.

      @Matthew Smith, David Arquette's the last person I would suggest anyone who's interested in going into the business to listen to about training & etc, I would reccomend instead that they should listen to people like Afa or Sika or Rkishi, or Steve Keirn or Dory Funk Jr or Arn or Tully.

      New Jack wrestled for USWA and SMW, and very early in ECW. Even during his hardcore matches he knew how to work, where as the amateurs just get hit and sloppy in the rest of their work.

      You find it "ironic" because you have no understanding of something as simple as a TIMELINE.
      You want to call out the Hart family for bringing Chris Benoit into the business too, because he did what he did years later? Is that how your brain works?
