WWF Attitude game on PS1 and RAW game on SNES.Pete Campbell wrote: »Default/Sample Questions
What got you into Pro Wrestling in the first place?
Friend has the SNES, cousin had the PS1. I would play them non-stop despite having no idea who was who and what wrestling really was. I was around 7 or 8 at the time if I recall correctly. Then one day I asked for the game for my own PS1 I got for Christmas. Parents ended up getting me WWF Warzone but I loved playing it. Still remember all the video promos. Even Ahmed Johnson. Then one day I was flicking through the channels and came across Livewire on Sky One and I've been watching ever since.
Honestly, its different segments and the backstage stuff. I loved getting sucked into a match at certain points, but generally I get bored during most matches more than I used to. I can't remember the last time I watched a full episode of Raw, but I always check the results and go back and watch whatever sounds worthwhile. Wrestlemania is ALWAYS fun though. Get completely absorbed in it.Pete Campbell wrote: »What keeps you interested in it?
Used to work in a call centre and for one summer I was on this special team where I got like one call a day. Ended up trawling Boards for new forums and came across you guys!Pete Campbell wrote: »How did you come across the PW forum on Boards?
I usually fact check stuff I've come across online by seeing if Rovert posted anything about it. I also really enjoy the piss-taking.Pete Campbell wrote: »What keeps you coming back to the forum?
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMES. And radio. Thinking of starting up a podcast soon, just need to get the equipment. Used to do a few Let's Plays now and then but I just lost inspiration.Pete Campbell wrote: »What other big interest do you have outside of Pro Wrestling?
1.Chris Jericho winning the WWF Championship from HHH 20 minutes into RAW after the APA got rid of Shane McMahon. I could not believe it. I mentioned in the RAW #1000 podcast we did about how I used to lay in bed on Friday nights and 'listen' to Raw, because we didn't have Sky Sports tuned in. BUT I was so tired I fell asleep during the ad break. Woke up the next morning SUPER excited about Y2J as Champion....and then I watched it. Distraught is an understatement.Pete Campbell wrote: »What wrestler/story/moment do you feel had the greatest impact on you as a fan?
2. Invasion angle. Yes, I know everyone looks back on it now as a big missed opportunity, but I had little to no knowledge of WCW or ECW, only what I had briefly overheard my cousin talking about. So from Vince buying WCW, all the way to Vince vs Ric Flair for control, I was glued to the TV waiting to see what happened next and who would show up. As a kid who still though it was all real it was mindblowing.Pete Campbell wrote: »Where did your username come from?0 -

Were you p*ssed when I beat one of your times on SSX by two-tenths of a second? Did you even notice?
In seriousness though, what would be your Game of The Year for the past five years?
Uncharted 2 : Among Thieves
Honestly nothing like it. I know people who've bought a PS3 just to play this.
OR
The Walking Dead. See it wins GOTY for 2012, but I don't know about 5 years.
Gets trickier at ten years or more, but 5 years and thats what spring to mind.0 -

I just did an online test and they said Wolf. Sounds good to me.
Tony Browne by the smallest bit.Charisteas wrote: »If you could have one wrestling related personality over for dinner, who would it be?
Which year did you start watching wrestling?
How many wrestling shows have you been to?
How many different countries have you been to?
Which country has the sexiest women?
If I had a wrestling personality over for dinner it would have to be Cody Rhodes. Fast dinner, then hours of co-op gaming.
Started watching in 96/97.
Haven't been to any.
My cousin made it to the front row of a Smackdown the late 90's. Got a picture of X-Pac staring at Stephanie's arse.
Been to four different countries. England, Portugal, Poland and Germany.
The polish women are just unbelievable. A 9 over here is a 6 over there.
The 24 bus I think. It was the one I used to get in Cork when I was visiting friends in UCC. Many a dodgy hangover stomach held in on that bus.MrKingsley wrote: »What is your favourite number bus? Past or present
What three current wwe personalities would you invite to dinner if you could?
I would invite Cody Rhodes, Sheamus and then AJ Lee so it wasn't a sausage fest.0 -

I'd love to come in as a real dickish Irish guy who was pissed off with Sheamus getting too into the "Top O'De Mornin" oirishness. Feud would culminate in a bar fight.connemara man wrote: »If vince Mc called you to be a superstar what would your gimmick be and who would you feud against first?connemara man wrote: »What is your favourite finisher?
Has to be the chokeslam. Never was mad on Big Show's versions, but always loved Kane's and Taker's.
Small few Christmas songs at the moment, a lot more chart stuff lately, Fun Lovin' Criminals, Thin Lizzy, Steely Dan and Fatboy Slim.jaykhunter wrote: »What's on your iPod/CD collection/etc?
Lot of videogame and movie soundtracks too.jaykhunter wrote: »Do any songs describe you?jaykhunter wrote: »What do you think of the French?
Meal Deal for one from Pizza Hut. When they changed the offer to include Garlic Bread instead of Pizza-ish Garlic Bread, it hurt me deep.jaykhunter wrote: »Do you order take out? What do you order?
Soft drink would be Coca Cola.jaykhunter wrote: »Fav soft/hard drink?
As far as hard drink goes, I'm partial to a bottle of Bulmers or a Captain & Coke.
Alternate between stubble and beard. Clean shave makes my head look feckin' massive.jaykhunter wrote: »Beard/clean shave/stubble?0 -

Maaaaybe Steve Blackman, but I always got a laugh out of the Crash Holly 24/7 segments.Favorite wrestler from the hardcore division?
Of all time, Lita.Favorite Diva?
Currently, Eve.
Papa Shango. Always liked the look of the gimmick.brianregan09 wrote: »Okay ill try to be diffrent who is you're favourite gimmicky heel from the 90's before the attitude era take for example Papa Shango, Crush, Damien Demento, Skinner theres loads more
I don't really burst into a song unless it's playing. Or someone suggests a sing song.Your ultimate karaoke song and/or song you burst into when drunk?
I am bloody awful at karaoke, but I always choose "National Express" by the Diving Comedy. I know all the words to "Rappers Delight", but I can't rap.
Worst: A plastic postbox for saving money that would tell you how much you had saved. I was 18.Best and worst Christmas presents you were given?
Best: Final Fantasy 8. Was a complete surprise and my dad just got it on instinct after seeing me play FF7 so much. Played it for a good two months straight.
Mastermind, I can't cook for the life of me but I know a lot of generally useless trivia.Masterchef or master mind?
Sadly no.Ever meet a big name wrestler, if so what was the best/funniest encounter?
(╯°□° ╯ ┻━┻You're having a meal, you ask for coke but they say they only have pepsi, what do you do?
Chillax and spend all my money. No point worrying about it.The world is ending in a week, what do you do for the week?
Not yet, but I always wanted to get my first or second name tattooed on the sole of my foot. Like "Andy" written on Woody's boot in Toy Story.Got a tattoo? If yes, whats the story behind it? If not would you ever get one?
Don't really have a particular one, more or less go by separate songs. Quite enjoying Waterford band The Dead Heavys atm.Favourite band/artists?
1. Louis C.K.Top 3 comedians?
2. Dylan Moran
3. Dave Chapelle
Naughty Bear was a disaster.Ever be incredibly excited about a game but then be very disappointed by the end product?
Battlefield 3 just didn't end up being worth my money. I never really took to the multiplayer and went back to playing Bad Company 2.0 -

Only been around for a few months. Kinda psychedelic, seen 'em play live twice now and can't enough. I keep listening to "Everybody In The Night". My personal song of the year, partly due to the "whaowwhaowwhaow" right at the start.
