I wish they’d move Nigel to dynamite, and Taz to Collision. But otherwise I have no complaints.

It’s too bad Danialson is retiring, because I kind of love the Nigel jealousy on commentary. Such a long term reference.

Watching Danialson vs Page right now, and LOVING Schivone/Excaliber/Nigel combo.

I’d love Ricaboni/Taz/JR on collision.

    For some reason, my mind read that as “John Madden”. I was just imagining 80s style overlays as he draws on the screen.

    “Aw look here! Adam Page goes for the buckshot lariat, but Swerve ducks out of the way. Now pay attention over here, draws a circle on screen around prince nana. This dancing little bastard is going to distract the referee. No yellow flag, no penalty, no delay of game! Wrestling is wild, I’ll tell ya. But now pay attention to Swerve here, draws motion lines he’s going to hit this running crossbody to counter that buckshot lariat. Then he picks the guy up, hey thanks for coming, and BOOM! Hits the JML Driver to end the match. Boy I tell ya, in football after a hard loss, you can usually expect to have the coach ream you out for the next couple of hours. What’dya suppose Page is going to do when he gets to the showers?”

    Taz: “Ehhhhh, knowing Adam, he’s probably going to start drinking whiskey…”

    Madden: “Hey hey! My kinda guy!”

      John Madden just makes me remember those ‘Tough-actin’ Tinactin!’ commercials for foot spray that went on for 20 years lol
