Fantastic gif.
Owen was not ever going to be in the spot HHH eventually had. That's silly as fuck. If Owen didn't get a title run out of the Black Hart thing after the screw job (which he should have, even if just for a month), it was never going to happen. He was winding down his career when he died. And was essentially back to doing a comedy heel gimmick in the mid card. HHH was already a heel by that point and being positioned to be the top heel. Owen's death had nothing to do with HHH's push. At all. In fact, if the Blue Blazer stuff continued, I'm sure Owen would have turned face again. He was only going to stick around for a few more years, so there is no way he was going to get the top dominant heel spot for that reason alone. The other reason being he was Owen Hart. I loved Owen, but come on.

Because GAF.
Nah man it's not so bad. But it's futile to convince people other wise. I'm done doing that.

Tournaments in general need to make a comeback and I hope that's where they're going with this "Suddenly a Tag Division Appeared!" thing. I was especially loving the BFG series because it had so many matches allowing people to win and lose (or Robbie E), up until last week when they decided to insult my intelligence.
As opposed to Hunter Hearst Helmsley? Owen said he wanted to retire early, but you know what? A lot of wrestlers say that. I think it's highly unlikely, but the 'Game' Owen Hart was actually supposed to be a thing. Was it the same idea as 'The Game' Triple H? Who knows. Triple H still would've married Stephanie, so I'm sure he still would have gotten his spot, but it may have come along later if it wasn't for A) Owen's death and B)HBK's back injury. May not have, who knows. Let people wonder, and this is coming from someone who likes Trips more than hates him.

I'm glad! She was always holding Brodus back from being the dominant wrestler that he is. Now he can funk it up without her and reach for the stars!

You're lucky that is fake, or we'd have some issues.

Thread prediction time?
September Wrasslin
- I will keep asking "where the hell is Wade Barrett?"
- Soul Playa posts about Kane and continues to avoid watching Raw aside from youtubing Kane segments
- Indie wrasslin interest in the thread reaches a new high to counteract the crummy direction WWE is continuing to head down and interest is assisted by the informative opening post
- Sunflower has big plans with his community angle, time to get GAF ACTIVE
- TNA heads back down the drain with the power of June and Summer having run out, Beef will weep.
- Fight of Fighters will have a huge upset and G-Fex will choke like Daniel Bryan at WM live on his stream.

After the match:
"I knew you were going to break that pin up, but fuck, did it have to be with a flying knee to the head?"
I lost my smile half an hour ago when I realized I can't do shit in UMVC3

I watched those on Youtube and they were nothing special. Sorry SoulPlayer.
It gave off some heavy 'Matt Morgan Direct Auto Insurance commercial' vibes, know what I mean?
Thanks Mene Gene. This could be the greatest OT of all time. Email your Gaf mod and be sure not to miss out!
Lets take a look back at how it all started.

Why do they always start out with men's sizes only? This shirt design in particular is perfect for toddler sizes. Hate you, WWEShop.
yeah yeah your OP is better than mine just make with the damn thread

Shinsuke's Boma-Ye knee is a crazy move, I'm sure it can't be as dangerous as he makes it look - best shining wizard variant/knee strike going, imo.

I should start prepping my first post.
Are you going to need multiple posts to fit everything?
No, but I know of a couple of people who wanted something on the first page.

I remember that feeling, you really have to get the standard air combo that pretty much everyone has and then muscle memory it into your very being to at least begin getting to grips with how the games played, but that's like the first step on a very long road, i'm content with my scrub powers.
I got juggled like a ring rat in my first online game

I hope they're ready. I'm predicting at least the first 5 pages being comprised entirely of gif and pic spam, akin to anime, pop, furry, nba, pony, and korean GAF.
