Ring Posts Xtra: Episode 3

Presenting a "dramatic recreation" of an interview I conducted years ago with Vince Russo, looking at some memorable moments from past Survivor Series pay-per-views and discussing a couple DX reunions that have been making headlines.

Best episode yet, Eck! Your "interview" w/ Russo had me busting up. 10 years on, it's like listening to people who said the internet would never take off. It's just so preposterous as to be hilarious and ironic. Keep up the good stuff.

Best and funniest so far, keep it up!

Hilarious, easily the best yet. HBK glowering over your shoulder was a great touch. And the 4 horsemen starring Mongo McMichael got a good laugh out of me.

The Russo interview was actually very interesting and insightful. It really is just like someone saying the internet will never take off... except that most of those people aren't currently booking the #2 internet company in the world. Makes my blood boil to think someone so disdainful of actual wrestling is still so powerful in the world of wrestling.

Really enjoyable Kev. Especially enjoyed the Russo interview and Rated Eck's reaction to the "DX" reunion.

Already looking forward to the next one

A DX reunion without HHH & HBK is a pretty bad idea...but a DX reunion without X-Pac, the New Age Outlaws & Chyna...on a PG show...now THAT was a dumb idea.

Wait, who thinks Vince Russo is a visionary? Oh, right, Dixie Carter. Sigh.

I cannot believe you lumped Dean Malenko in with Mongo and Roma. I'm going to just chalk that up to an inability to think of any other Horsemen in the heat of the moment. Otherwise, great stuff.

RESPOSNE FROM KE: Malenko was a great wrestler. He was not a great Horsemen (IMO).

WWE + TNA needs you on their creative team! Tell them I said so!

ya, i agree with AMC. You should go to TNA, that way you'd be too busy to do these horrible video blogs. Please stick to the writing.

RESPONSE FROM KE: Everybody's entitled to their opinion, but if you don't like the videos, you don't have to watch them.

Sorry Kev, but I'm not a fan of the comedy in the slightest - especially when you put on the glasses and start acting like a heel. However, I do respect your opinions on wrestling so keep up the good work.

Rated Eck! That guy is great!

Sha Na Na is holding auditions, so

Get a Job!

Want to see the hatching of the Gobbledy Gooker? Ever wonder how great of an actor Gene Okerlund was ? He managed to keep a straight face in the face of WWF stupidity, Here it is folks, the hatching of the Gobbeldy Gooker!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JODV1xJNlrU

Nice videos. Keep it up.

P.S. I think Kurt Angle made his debut at Survivor Series in 1999. Am I right? I think that guy's had a good career.

Eck, that fake Russo accent sounded like Pacino in Scarface.
