We already has a pre ST: TOS called Enterprise that struggled but still stayed on the air for 5 seasons. I think only hard core fans liked the fact that the first Enterprise went into Outer Space with primitive transporters that were risky to use, that the ship had special battle armour & no shielding, could only go what, Warp 5, as I recall & wasn't a bad ass ship as the others if in an armed conflict? To me, Star Trek also works better as a 1 hr show with stories beginning & ending each episode. Not a continuation of a storyline for episode after episode.

I'd say Star Trek & Star Wars are science fiction & Harry Potter is fantasy. Although SW does borrow from both. Through all the tv series & movies, ST has always been about proving Gods are created by aliens, caregivers & despots purely by technology.

I won't get drawn into an argument with you over Owen Hart as he died 17 years ago. You can't prove your point but neither can I. So like I said, I'm done arguing with you over Owen Hart. I won't be part of another wrestling thread shut down over something like this.

Done... You got all the answers to everything. Maybe we should change the title of this Thread to "Ask TUP" or the "TUP Says". This could be such great thread if your ego wasn't always on display. It already closed one wrestling thread down.

I won't argue with you about Owen because it makes no sense.

Any comments on WWE Roadblock last night? I have a few thoughts. Why would Jericho wrestle Swagger after what he did to AJ Styles last Monday on Raw? From the dull crowd reaction to seeing Swagger who has absolutely no heat, I think they were asking the same question I was. Why didn't Styles come out to distract Jericho to give the win to Swagger? That whole match made no sense from start to finish. Kept waiting for Styles to come out & stand in front of a cheering crowd but he never did. Why only 2 of the LON in the WWE Tag Team Championship against The New Day. You'd think they'd have the other 2 guys come out to stand at ringside. And probably the weakest teaming of that group with Barrett & Sheamus. Would have liked to see Rusev & Alberto Del Rio instead. Sheamus needs a makeover or something. He's dreadful right now. As far as the WWE Heavyweight Championship, it was so evident to me (anyway) that Triple H slowed the match down & really jobbed for Ambrose until the end. Triple H totally carried that match last night. Ambrose just doesn't look like a guy who could win the WWE Championship or even carry it for a month or two. Triple H looked great & Ambrose weak. I guess he's got heat right now so he makes the main event. Makes me sure wish Seth Rollins was back & just how hard of a worker he was. Wrestling match after match day after day & being on camera so much. Rollin's twice the wrestler Ambrose is.

Well, as he died in his 30's with his potential never fulfilled therefore we'll never know, A lot of things might have happened in the next 17 years to change things. I just remember hearing the news of his death on a Sunday night on the radio where I was working an overnight shift & was stunned, Absolutely stunned.

No questioning Brett's in ring skills. He's definitely in my Top 5 All Time. I'm just saying that his promos at times could have been better & he did stumble over words every once in awhile. It doesn't tarnish Brett's image as one of the best wrestler's ever and most people don't remember his mic skills other than his trademark catch phrases as Taynted Fayth has mentioned. The sad thing is Owen Hart. He was a great heel as well. Owen could really rile people up & he always looked legitimately angry on camera whether it be in the ring or in the back. He was already a great wrestler when he died in 1999. We'll never know how good he might have become. He might have ultimately done more than his brother Brett did in his career. Matter of fact I think he would have.

It's a lousy rule the way it's set up. You may not think it's bush but lots of people do. You see it being said here by others so why bother arguing over a point we will never agree upon? Everybody is entitled to their opinion. I respect yours.

Maybe so but I don't think the players want to risk losing a season either just to have an independent arbitrator make rulings on suspensions. So, goes both ways. I don't think the players would have wanted to die trying to take that hill.

Never should have put it in the CBA. That's on the NHL for agreeing to it. These are the kind of unintended consequences that happen when thy did.

I always felt if Brett had one weakness it was his mic skills. Certainly he was good but he'd stumble occasionally or trip over his words with kind of a monotone inflection. When you compare the Master Of The Mic Nick Bockwinkle to me he'll always be the guy every wrestler in NXT who wants to make it to the WWE should study. All of his promos were well thought out & rehearsed. He liked to use words not many people used & had this regal & smug aura about him when he spoke. He made you feel inferior to him which riled fans up. Nick was such an intelligent man on the mic & in the ring. In my opinion, the best there ever was on the mic. Followed closely by Ric Flair. However the 2 had such contrasting styles that really worked for them. When I say Ric Flair, I don't mean the Ric Flair of today who is just an old shell of himself & it's actually sad watching him work with his daughter as she has no need for him to be there other than as an angle. But the Ric Flair of the 80's. Charismatic & bombastic. "To be The Man, you have to beat The Man." The long hair, the robes, sunglasses, valets walking to the ring. His on camera presence. He was phenomenal. Better not forget The Macho Man in this discussion, Oh yeah....

No, it's bush Rich. It does make the league look really bad.

I hope there is a civil suit against Wideman, the Flames, their medical staff & the NHL by the NHLOA. The only way to get real action for Henderson is legal action.

And then claim how great the season went at the end & are happy with the 7th pick in the draft while the fanbase is ticked.

Nick Bockwinkel, Shawn Micheals, Brett Hart, Ric Flair & Mr Perfect would be my Top 5. I'd include Triple H in there & take Hart out BUT... how much of a push did he get as the Boss's Son In Law? Would he have done what he did on his own? That'll always be the thing about Triple H. Could he have accomplished what he did without Vince or Stephanie McMahon? Hart was just an outstanding wrestler. He deserves to be there in my list.

Watch the Jets go on a 6 game winning streak.

Right now, if nothing changes we have the second pick in the draft. Keep it (not) going, Jets.

Like I said before just have drones hovering over the field & Glen Johnson making all the calls in his office in Toronto..

Sheamus could quit wrestling tomorrow & he wouldn't be missed, I think.

Calgary fans would take that really ugly & atrocious stadium in a heartbeat.

Sheamus has peaked. Since he came back as a heel with the Mohawk, he just doesn't have the buzz anymore. Definitely has become a permanent mid carder.

I echo Atomic's sentiments. If anyone wants to talk about celebrity porno sex tapes here or what diva they want to bang then take it to private messages. It's probably one of the reasons why the first rasslin' thread was killed. Just stick to wrestling. Don't spoil it for the rest of us.
