Hogan uses a leg drop as a finisher. How innovative is that?

Rey, for example, one of the most innovated wrestlers of the time, will be remembered for just that. Innovation. More so in his WCW days. But that's it.

Does Triple H have a lot of power that maybe wouldn't have gotten him where he is? May be so. But to say his HIAC matches with Undertaker and Foley were just "good"......Come on.

The match everyone most remembers is when he got screwed. That's it. The rest were all sharpshooters (not saying that's a bad thing)

There is also the submission match with Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 13, but yeah, that's pretty much it.

...Speaking of HHH, he and John Cena are both being advertised to appear on TV at the first Smackdown after WrestleMania, in Boston. The word is that will be after a match with Brock Lesnar at Mania.

What about the famous matches with Bulldog and Owen? He also had really great matches with Mr Perfect too. He was also the one who suggested the ladder match to Vince.

I'm not saying what he said about Triple H is exactly right but i don't think he should be dismissed as someone who had a couple of memorable matches.

Tonight, TNA President Dixie Carter appeared on Bellator Fighting on SpikeTV, and made the following special announcements:

-Carter revealed that TNA just re-signed Jeff Hardy to a new, long-term deal.

-Carter revealed the following dates and locations for Impact road tapings:

March 14th in Chicago, Illinois at Sears Centre Arena

March 28th in Jonesboro, Arkansas at ASU Convocation Center

April 11th in Corpus Christi, Texas at American Bank Center

June 6th in Atlanta, Georgia at Gwinnett Center

Aww, crap. :pinch: I read yesterday WWE.com put up his alumni profile, so I was hoping he was on the way out of TNA.

Dixie Carter's been teasing the signing of another WWE superstar to TNA with a couple of hints...

"The surprise in June will be involving a new talent with the company. His WWE contract expires after Wrestlemania, and we just happened to pick him up," Carter said.

"One last hint. The newest member to the TNA roster, debuting in June, is a guy who will "slither and strike" when the time is right."

So yeah, a lot of people are thinking it's Randy Orton. I bet she's trolling though, and it's Santino Marella. :p

Your European reference is lost on this American.

My apologies. The two drivers I mentioned have been on one-year contracts for the past few years, so to them, anything more would be long-term.

OK, back to wrestling...

I'm now kicking myself for not watching The JBL & Cole Show until this episode. Seriously, any Damien Sandow fans in here need to watch the above episode! :rofl:

DAMMIT MIZ!

At Saturday?s WWE house show in Springfield, Missouri it was said by people in the audience that CM Punk was shaken up during his match against The Miz. Apparently The Miz botched a stalling suplex on Punk, causing him to land awkwardly on his head. Officials checked Punk for several minutes but eventually Punk went on to continue the match.

That's Undertaker with Gnash, the official mascot of the Nashville Predators NHL team at last night's game against the Chicago Blackhawks. And RAW is live from Bridgestone Arena in Nashville tonight, so most fans are putting two and two together and expecting him to return tonight.

God he looks old like that. I mean, he's getting up there in years, and I still think his shaved head looks WEIRD on him. I just wonder if he can truly still go for a match (or two etc) or not...guess we'll find out soon enough.

That promo Dutch Mantel cut at WWE RAW last night was not of good taste. Talking about how he is American and how he wants the illegals to stay away from the U.S.A. That was very racist and something WWE should not have allowed, considering they have a campaign against bullying and they are a so-called "Family" show. Not a very good example to show children.

Agreed; some of Vince and Linda's Republican tendencies seem to be seeping through into the show again. Part of me is thinking it's meant to be a parody of the average Republican, especially with the name: Zeb Coulter. Personally, I'm more inclined to brand it xenophobic instead of racist, but that's just as bad, anyway. Saying that though, they were in Tennessee, a Republican state, and the crowd were booing that promo. Oh, does anyone see the irony in having a heel that's pro-American (Jack Swagger) and a heel that's anti-American (Antonio Cesaro) at the same time?

I get the feeling it's gonna end up like Muhammad Hassan: pulled off TV due to pressure from the network or from sponsors.

And now for something completely different...

      Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • DuRoBo Krono Review: Portable E-Ink reader with great ideas that need a bit of improvement

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

      Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
