I’ll be watching (and reviewing) RAW but have the Home Run Derby on DVR for tomorrow morning.
Big Cass opening the show… where does he head next?
Enzo comes out and challenges him.
Or Big Show comes out
Cass really comes off as wooden here.
And he picked it up at the end.
Yeah once he started feeling it, it got good. Hopefully he squashes Show too.
Good evening!
Hey hey!
How much does the crowd hate Cass that the Crowd popped for Big Show
They seem to truly not like Cass, that’s good.
Looks like Show gained back some weight.
If anyone has last minute feedback for tonight’s PTB Podcast, share it here to be read on air: http://placetobenation.com/vintage-vault-pre-viewing-wwf-at-madison-square-garden-61486/#disqus_thread
Who’s everyone got in the Derby?
Really good field. Heart is with Judge but I could see Stanton going off at home.
I am choosing Mike Moutakasas, third baseman on the royals. I’m hoping Judge doesn’t because I am hoping he doesn’t mess up his swing.
I just saw an update of the Paige/ADR situation. Some audio is on prowrestlingsheet
Drifter is great.
Gary Sanchez putting on a show
Sanchez KNOCKING THE CRAP out of some of these balls.
Also, who’s dumb idea was it to put a home run derby in a domed stadium? Some of these shots hitting the top of the dome would be moonshots out of the park.
Yeah he is mashing.
We going to see Finn join up with the Club tonight?
Prime Day starts at the top of the hour and YOU can help your favorite site by clicking through our referral link (which is really easy to remember)
http://placetobenation.com/amazon
I’m spending my entire paycheck on that link, daddy-o!
The baby doesn’t need diapers. Or maybe I can buy them through the link…
You sure as fuck can!
I will be a good PTBN’er and use that link for all my upcoming formula and diaper purchases. And other stuff I buy.
We’ve gotten all our diapers through Amazon after we decided the cloth diapers were too expensive.
How much do you spend per month on diapers?
About… $45, I’d say. I’ll double check with the wife.
We get ours at BJs… they are about the same as Amazon … those two place seemed to be the best deals overall.
We just went to CostCo for the first time yesterday and we got a crap ton of diapers there.
Yeah, there is a BJ’s about two miles away from us. They also sell gas that is 20 cents cheaper per gallon.
What an upset!
Love it!
Gallows and Anderson over Hardyz!
The Revival!
I liked that segment. You can go a few ways there.
Yeah tag division is looking solid
So far, a solid start to RAW.
An Ambrose/Rollins pairing leading to Ambrose turning could be refreshing. I’d take those two feuding with Cesaro & Sheamus.
This Kurt Angle Homecoming special looks really good.
It does. I may stay up and watch it.
Raw sounds good but I’m watching the home run derby, Judge is about to put on a show
Hoping for an all Yankee finals.
That would be my guess now but bour is going to put some pressure on judge.
That would be fantastic, but Bour was a beast.
Nice, going to the Red Sox Saturday and it appears Sale has been named the starter.
I assume the Sasha/Bayley dissension starts here. Bayley costs them the match and Sasha brings up how she beat both of them by herself last week.
I hope this is setting up for Dean to go heel soon. Seth will probably beat him in a #1 Contender’s Match for the IC Title
Gonna be a tough road for Judge… Bour lit it up.
Judge is in BEAST MODE!
He is the best… 501 feet, smacking the roof. What a monster.
Holy hell, what a show for the home run derby.
Best home run derby, this is great. Poor bour just went up against the best
Yeah tough go for Bour. Switching to the tournament format was a brilliant idea for sure, breathed new life into it.
Oh yeah definitely love the new format. Right from the first year doing it with Frazier in 15 it has added drama and excitement.
I have missed all of raw so far because of the derby
Been a pretty good show so far.
Been a good derby, too
Nothing memorable but nothing terrible,either. Solid show.
Really loving the Goldust reboot.
Damn. Sanchez just got tired
That match was………………not good.
Brock and Kurt in the same ring, always great memories.
Yes, Roman vehicular homicde is over the line.
Judge hit one 513, absurd.
Should be worth two
Joe is owning this promo
He is the man!
I really want Joe vs Lesnar again.
You need to listen to your advocate, he’s the one protecting you from me. Joe is the man.
This promo is the good stuff.
“You look at me when I’m talking to you”
So great.
I wouldn’t mind a Fatal 4-Way at Summerslam
I think that is where it’s going. 4 big hosses kicking the shit out of each other. I can go for that.
Yes! I will be at RAW next week!!
Braun will interrupt it and maybe make it a fatal-four-way at SS
We can only hope. Imma pick up the destroyer t shirt next week too.
Joe is really fucking great on the mic. And Reigns was much, much better than usual too
He has the right amount of intensity.
Great stuff all around.
I really want him to win the title.
I’d love to see the three of them destroy each other.
Lesnar was great too. I think the segment really worked because of him — dropping “shit,” saying things off mic … it just feels more “real” with him.
Gonna spend a little more time over here. Scott’s blog is just too damn negative.
Oh there’s plenty to be critical about current WWE, but over there you can’t seemingly enjoy any little bit of the show without being drowned out by how awful and stupid everything is top to bottom.
It’s been getting worse and worse for a while. I know I get caught up in it sometimes, too.
Example: I thought Roman was pretty good on the mic in that segment, and hell had more crowd support than usual, maybe because he came off as natural more than anything else. But all the blog could say was “Oh God Roman sucks out there, Joe’s promo’s are so much better. This Texas crowd is dumb, cheering Roman like that, what dummies!”
Oh forget it, Roman is public enemy number one.
Glad to have you! And yes I agree with you for sure… just gets to be way too much.
This show’s been fine, bordering on good.
Welcome! I am confident you will find the tone here much more enjoyable.
Honestly, Dar is the least talented male on the roster. No charisma, dull in the ring, bad on the mic. He does not standout in anyway except for a goofy accent, which is why he is getting a bit of a push because the WWE’s owner is old and weird.
He’s so young, feels like they speculated like he’d be this hot prospect and he clearly isn’t. Then doing the U.K. belt stuff really buried him on the depth chart.
Meaning a whole bunch of other guys with British accents came onboard and are much better
Of all the UK guys to pick, they chose him. He never stood out in RevPro or ICW, either.
Agreed with this so much. Horrible.
Plus he beat Ho Ho Lun in the cruiserweight tournament.
Judge power rankings
1. Aaron
2. Harry Stone
3. Judy
4. Jeff Jones
5. Mills Lane
I’ll allow it
That was beautiful. Judge’s swings were effortless.
All rise!
What’s on tap for this Friday’s Live Watch, any choices yet?
Nope, we can start tossing some out for sure! We can do July PPVs to keep in line with what we have been doing or go on another path?
July PPVs? I nominate Canadian Stampede.
We did it two weeks ago
Yah we have done Canadian Stampede, Raw the next night and GAB 97 so far.
Damn it!
OK, fine. GAB 1989
I’m going to nominate Fully Loaded 2000, unless Benoit in the main event is too much of a turn off.
Any thought to other shows that might highlight guys for the Top 100 WWE wrestlers list? Can be PPV’s or SNME, Prime Time’s, RAW’s or Smackdowns.
That is the idea I liked! I had forgotten what it was… yeah we could so something like this.
Okay, do we want to stick with July events or branch out?
We can try for a July first and then branch out.
Fully Loaded 2000 may work well… lots of candidates on that show.
Yeah, that’s smack dab in the middle of the great summer of 2000 WWE had.
I say Fully Loaded 2000. I went through most of the lead up and was going to watch the PPV itself.
There’s just not much chemistry between these two.
Looks like they were doing the wave when they came back from commercial.
That dropkick spot was off too.
For two wrestlers I care about, I do not care about this feud.
So far, I am thoroughly disappointed in Prime Day deals… much like I am every Prime Day. I did find a potential Christmas/Birthday present for my best friend, but that’s pretty far off…
In this episode of the Place to Be Podcast, Justin, Scott and Kelly Nelson are kicking off summer in the city as they take a look back at the 6/14/86 Madison Square Garden house show!
The boys discuss a flat opening match, a terrible match between Pedro Morales and Iron Sheik, the continued attempt to disguise Dan Spivey as Barry Windham, brutal slop between George Steele and Nikolai Volkoff, more MSG midget action, Bruno Sammartino back in action, Chris Christie: Sports Talk Host, fat George Wells, a fiery fistfight between King Tonga and John Studd, the MSG return of Harley Race, another shitty finish to close the show and more, including end of show awards!
So fire up this action-packed episode and join Scott, Justin & Kelly as it’s time for another edition of the PTB Podcast!

I’m pretty sure I looked at this card and felt it was too shitty for even me to review.
It was rough… worst we have seen to date.
Holy shit this lineup is bad.
Kurts on the phone with Dixie.
I was just about to post the same thing
Who’s watching the Kurt doc right now?
I am trying to watch as much as I can before passing out… great so far.
Tiger Ali Singh!
Plan to watch the Kurt Doc before I hit the hay. How is it so far?
Great stuff.
This Kurt doc is the best WWE 24 yet.
Agreed 100%. Absolutely stunning work.
It got to me in a major way. I felt so genuinely happy to see Kurt’s changes that I left it not wanting to see him wrestle again and risk further injury. It’s awesome to see him playing with his kids and having hat big goofy grin back again.
I got up to WM19 and fell asleep but loved it so far.
