Best Royal Rumble Ever.

That's all I got for now.

Can't agree. The bulk of the Rumble itself was acceptable, just nothing special. However, it was the best ending of a Rumble by far.

Well, best Royal Rumble I've personally seen since I started watching them in 2005. So best of the last 3 Rumbles.

Unless Andre the Giant and Bam Bam rose from the grave and formed a tag team, I refuse to believe that any Royal Rumble is as good as it used to be. Yes, I (think I ) watched it in the 80's.

Unless you paid for it, the only one you could have seen was the first one in 1988 which Hacksaw Jim Duggan won.

Bam Bam and Andre were not in it.

But Danno, as far as I'm concerned the best three rumbles, in no order, are 1992 (Flair wins), 2001 (Austin wins 3rd time), 2004 (Benoit wins). All three had good story development within the match (impressive for a 30+ superstar clusterfuck) and each had exciting action and unique eliminations.

Have you seen Pan's Labyrinth? It's not about wrestling.

Pan's Labrynth, while featuring significantly less wrestling, is not entirely devoid of it.

The Captain beats his wife! The Captain beats his wife! (not a major plot point spoiler).

Twas an awesome Rumble. The only thing that would have improved it was was the great Khali falling down, killing several small children, bumping his head, forgeting who he was and wandering off into the night, NEVER TO BE SEEN AGAIN.

EVER.

I wanna see Pan's Labrynth


And yes, Stickboy, I agree with a few exceptions

"Khali falling down, killing several small children, bumping his head, forgetting who he was and wandering off PANTLESS into the DRIVEN SNOW, pursued by a man with a SCIMITAR, NEVER TO BE SEEN AGAIN.

EVER."

I totally forgot about the whole personal connection 'twixt you and Pan's Labyrinth. I've recommended it to everyone just because it's great, but you may get more out of the historical stuff abotu Franco and so forth.

By the way, I'm going to rent the Russians Are Coming! as soon as I can find it... which means whenever I can fit it in my Netflix schedule.

So I was taking a walk along Regent Street and I saw a poster for a show going up on London' Broadway whatever, and it was starring, guess who, Felicity Kendall. Clearly, I need to bring all the washing machines in the world to gawk and perhaps wash her underwear. It does need a good wash, after all.

Dude, I just received the greatest myspace comment ever today. I hope Stev shows you it, because I can't name the person involved because apparently they spend all their time googling themselves to see where they are mentioned, which if you remember the kid, is exactly the kind of ass-clownish thing you'd expect them to do.

Royal Rumble in SoJo!

I can't check your Myspace anymore, Justin. There's too much crap on there for it to load.

It wasn;t a comment, it was a letter I forwarded to you, Stev. But no worries.

Okay, I think I can make this easy : there was a certain person that our friend Mikael Muuellir (spelled wrong) hated for writing on the wall of the radio station, being a douche, thinking he was great, teh most knowledgable sports guy around.

His last name rhymes with Hag Knee. He first name is biblical, garden of eden. I know you know who I'm talkign about by now. We all hate him.

ANyway, he wants to fight me now because I made a joke about his self-described "awesome basketball knowledge" ... at teh very end of a post.. way back in November. (I can see him googling himself incessantly and excitedly comign across his own name). He's stalking me on myspace... he doesn;t remember me, but we all remember him.

We should have just locked him in the staysh senior year and left him in there all summer.

HAHAAAAAA!

It's probably keeping him up at night.

Let's see if ADAM BAGNI finds this by googling himself. It'd sure be an honor to have an accomplished IMDB page-owner to visit my humble blog.

Adam Bagni is the greatest sportscaster of all time. After googleing one of the fastest rising talents in the world of sports, I found out, He is also an extremely versatile performer and producer who is creatively skilled, technically exceptional, and equally comfortable with live television or radio play-by-play, reporting, anchoring, and voiceover/narration. Particular areas of excellence include on-camera performance, writing, interviewing, editing, and shooting. And lets not forget he won an award for Excellence in Broadcasting from the Pennsylvania Association of Broadcasters.
We should all look up to him and pray that someday our life can be somewhat like his.
