Blog of DOOM Daily Thread – 4th December 2021

Happy Saturday Everyone!
Caught Rampage this morning. As usual it was an easy show to watch, but pretty forgettable once it was over. To be honest, I can live with that so long as Dynamite keeps delivering week on week. It’s all about whether the ratings are high enough to keep TNT happy. If so, then it’s all just gravy on top of the AEW chicken dinner, and who doesn’t like gravy?
Scheduled today on the Blog: Thomas has the Rampage and Smackdown reviews up, with Scott also providing a Rampage review that is due to be posted shortly after this thread goes live. I go back in time to review the Deadly Game (Cause It’s A Deadly Game) tournament from 1998. Dave Newman has some classic WCW for us, whilst Maffew will be posting another UWF Fury Hour as midnight descends upon us

Probably not the only company that will be going all digital in the future. I personally don’t like it as it takes away the power of fans and collectors to archive things and also keeps control of what becomes available firmly in WWE’s own hands. I’m not a fan of that happening in the Video Game industry either, as you get things like Konami basically removing P.T. from existence because it was digital only. Here’s hoping there will still be bootleg copies knocking about for those who still want physical copies of these tapes
Another bout for the New Legacy Inc Wrestling Games Grand Prix Championship
Have a gooden everyone!
