Calling The Classics - Hulk Vs. Sting
🕑 Added 2018-03-31 02:43:04 +0000 UTC A long awaited return to something i actually enjoy, wrestling! Here's my good boi commentary on a classic old man brawl from 2011. I recorded a bunch of these before i left on my trip a couple weeks ago. So far I've uploaded 4 of them, and 3 of them immediately got blocked worldwide for copyright, so i don't know what the hell to do. But this one survived, so this is the one you get to see. Hurry and enjoy before it gets blocked too.If I can figure out a way to get these online and be sure they won't get blocked i will absolutely do more. I get asked all the time to talk about wrestling more often, and i want to! I'm just never allowed!
This match took place in a more innocent time, 2011. Seems a lifetime ago, I know. I believe it was at Bound For Glory, the biggest show of the year for TNA (or Impact Wrestling as it's also called). TNA is like a sort of K-Mart WWE. They've always had great talent and big names, but rarely have ever been that successful for one reason or another.
Most of TNA's failure to compete with WWE over the years comes down to stuff like poor management and other boring stuff i don't care about. When it comes to the actual wrestlers having actual matches, they've always been just as capable of delivering an entertaining product as any promotion.
Case in point, this highly satisfying clash of dinosaurs.
In one corner, the Hulkster, currently bad. Having completed a hostile takeover of TNA with his sleazy buddies and put former TNA president Dixie Carter out of a job, looks to control Impact Wrestling with an iron fist. Or something.
In the other corner, his ancient rival, Sting, who at the time of this match was going through a big mid-life Joker phase for reasons that have been lost to history. The storied history of Sting and Hogan has lasted for decades. Always with Sting playing the role of Hogan's conscience whenever the Hulkster stepped over the line and went bad, which happens surprisingly often. To paraphrase the man Sting was painting his face like, it seemed they were destined to do this forever, or at least until they both got really old.
So here we have The Icon Vs. The Immortal One. The Man Called Sting giving it all he's got in one final desperate bid to beat some sense into the fallen hero Hulk Hogan. If Sting loses, then everybody dies sad or something. But if Sting wins, Dixie gets her job back. And maybe, just maybe, if Hogan gets beat up bad enough, he'll stop his evil ways and come back to the light side, currently represented by a 50 year old man in Joker paint.
This match is a textbook example of what makes wrestling cool as fuck. Real human drama told via epic battle between two guys who can barely walk, with a combined age of 150. Then Ric Flair shows up, so then the combined age goes up to like 290. It's a literal bloodbath.
