Going on library of work, I'd take HBK over Eddie. Granted, as everyone's already pointed out over and over again, it's potentially an unfair fight just because Eddie didn't have the same opportunities, but I still think HBK has put on so many absolutely great, four star+ matches that Eddie just can't keep up. It seems like it'd be a much tougher choice if it was "who was the better worker."

PG DX

More specifically, Little People's Court


Man, Little People's Court, as bad as it was, was the high point of PG DX if anything.

From: Tom Bombadil | #178
Random thought on the Jericho thing: Maybe it has to do with Cena somehow. We've had a lot of story of Cena and the dark/heel side, with people trying to corrupt him or get him to tap into that and LET HIS HEEL PERSONA SHINE THROUGH and stuff. And then Jericho who's been heel for a while shows up and does the opposite- goes completely overboard being a face. I doubt that is actually gonna have story significance, but it's an interesting mirror if nothing else.


I think one of my three hundred crackpot theories was that he's supposed to be Kane's mirror in the Cena thing. Like a little devil over one shoulder and a little angel over the other. But it just doesn't make sense with the vignettes, so I dropped it pretty quick.

in kane's instance, he has this intense hatred inside of him that will always keep him down, no matter how much the fans rise for him.

in jericho's case, the fans will always rise, so he needed to create his own hate. more hate than he has ever had. now is the time he needs to create it to prove to cena that you can, in fact, rise above it!

to do it, he'll get really, really high. once he's up there hate can only exist below!

Little People's Court was possibly the worst segment of the last five years. Highlight of PG DX was definitely their Christmas commercials, mainly the Elimination Chamber toy one

Then throwing in recaps it drops to like 1/30

Well I am occasionally in the minority with my opinions. This is going to have to be one of those times, because I found most of the merch shilling boring. Some of it got to be so silly that it was entertaining though.

And yes, they gave entirely too much time to Little People's Court. But it could be argued they gave entirely too much time to PG DX in general.

Had to check to make absolutely sure it was a DX moment and not a "Shawn and Triple H doing stuff" moment.

Though I'm not sure that's technically pg-dx since they're talking about Eric Bischoff. That might've been longer ago than I'm thinking it was. Though it's "post revival DX" which is pretty much the same thing regardless of whether the product was fully pg or not.

Argh f***ing wweshop.com. I was buying some of those Old School shirts they started having after Old School Raw that one time (super comfy shirts btw), and after I enter in my shipping & billing info they have a list of the stuff in my order and then I think oh I should add the Daniel Bryan Everybody Taps shirt to this order. So I add that and then I see it's the only thing in my cart so I think weird, it must've lost my order, so I put everything else I wanted back in the cart and go through the shipping & billing pages again and get to the list of items page.

That's when I realize this isn't a "review your order and make sure this is everything you wanted" page, it's a "this is everything you just bought" page. I ordered all that other stuff twice. So I check the customer support section on changing/canceling an order. All it tells me is YOU CAN'T.

Cult of Personality is better as a song.
Cult of Personality might fit the character better. I'm not actually convinced despite what Punk says-- they both kinda fit and CoP is kinda... too laid back for Punk's attitude I think.
But This Fire Burns is one of the best wrestling themes out there as a wrestling theme (largely because it gets you pumped up so well). And Cult doesn't really work as one.

Yeah I tried calling right after it happened but they had closed for the day an hour or two before. I checked their return policy and worst case I can just send all the duplicate stuff back for a refund and just be out the shipping costs. But still, very annoying to not have a "check before you finalize your order page" and not have an easy way to cancel/change an order.
