Re: Executioner, remember the original ag/pw rules. It was only a reversal if the opponent had a negative rating. The original move-performer's ag/pw didn't factor into it. So Executioner was still strong against 0-or-worse Agility guys. The change to comparing the two ratings didn't come until 2090. Yeah, I was in that weird spot where I bought it in 89 and I got 2090 right after, plus I was young/dumb trying to figure the game out Now I do the base of 7 and figure the difference in the (ag/pw) of both opponents and it’s a much better system

Love that Gryt story. Fun followup on the 84 and 86 sets and I agree on Mimic copying opponent's moves more would have been better.

Live train of thought as i listen and play ... - WOO!! Dalton is hosting! - We actually hit 64 today in Rochester - Woo POLISH people! All for -ski people being highlighted being a -cki person myself. - Rutabagas talk was classic UT podcast mayhem - Chaos suuuuuuucks ... he would win titles but always lose in first defense. Had to look at actually record and he didnt break .500 - Let's see upsets, recently I remember 2 Cold Scorpio dethroning Vader to win the heavyweight title before losing in first defense. - Yeah you guys are right BIG SUPERSTAR has way too good a stats for Hogan, if we got an actually Hogan prolly a pin 10(7) with no level three moves and a STUPID LEG DROP (0). The guy would be nothing without Vince, too many other guys would have done better in the spot. Probably would need a mechanic for lying and telling tall tales to fans before matches. - I thought it was confirmed that Montrol WAS the Mutant ... i dont remember the swerve it wasnt, could be wrong. - I have said it before but id love to see the booklet art on t-shirts, if only we had a t-shirt store ... "that's t-e-e-k-o-store.com" teekostore.com/- Also a big fan of Renegade, Cannibal was awesome - THEY SAID MY NAME AGAIN!!!! - College Football playoffs I totally get it. I think they got it right but Florida State deserved to be there. I would have even been like we are going to six this year we'll fine a way. - there was a place in Batavia my grandfather swore by and would always go to. When he passed he never went to another dry cleaners. - Wait? Who would hurt the HOST OF UNCHARTED TERRITORY!?!?! - IM A WESTERN NEW YORKER!!! But I don't go to Buffalo that much with the wife knocked up and don't know a lot about dry cleaners so you're on your own lol.

Rutabaga. I am not sure I've ever eaten one, but it seems like the most fun of the root vegetables.
I'm going to need a follow up on the dry cleaners story. I suspect foul play. Either that or Tim took a wrong turn and ended up in an episode of Seinfeld.

I remember getting 2086 and thinking that it was great storyline wise...it filled in some backstories of the GWF and made the fed's history a little more complete! The art was "aight"...
2084...the art was dreadful! I don't think I liked a single drawing of the set and buckwheat...error, Lord Nexus?!?! How could that drawing be released? It is totally racially insensitive...oof!
Promoters forget I used to be a chef by trade and have worked with the Rutabaga a few times...it is kinda like a less sweet carrot but is really good mashed like potatoes...plus, I have a cake recipe using it that has a brown butter frosting and crushed hazelnuts. Yummy!
I would have to say THE biggest upset in any of my feds history would have to be Paralyze & Turmoil losing the Galaxian Tag Team Championships to The Benchwarmers (Gryt and...wait for it... SCIMITAR)!!!!! I was thinking of an exile of the Aethrans after that outcome!
Loved hearing the redone DSC reference dedication for David...man, I really miss this guy- little known fact is that he was my oldest son's (Cameron) Godfather...
Great episode and has inspired me to roll the dice today fellas!

In my LOW fed, George South with his black and white card scored two of the biggest upsets as he ruined One Man Gang's debut and then he knocked off Don Muraco before going back to losing regularly.
Yesterday at GCW, George South made his first wrestling appearance in Los Angeles in over 30 years. I was hoping to get my George South card autographed and also tell him about his victories over One Man Gang and Muraco but unfortunately I did not see him out in the fans area, but I did get 3 more Indies cards (Big F'N Joe, Miedo Extremo, and Sawyer Wreck) autographed.

South ruined John Pesek's USWA debut in my fed! Pesek rebounded but it was not the start I wanted him to have. How was South vs. Santana Jackson, Zeke?
