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...

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By FunkyMike · Posted

      Useful to know, thanks!
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.

      I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By Nick H. · Posted

      <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
